hello everyone
i was wondering, if it is possible to have a radio player on the VOX /S710 phone
im not talking about a gprs radio player that needs to connect to the internet to play the radio stations
im talking about connecting a headphone, and start searching for radio stations like a normal radio.
any idea?
cheers
Impossible.
Reason being is that there is no FM radio hardware in the phone.
Some other hardware models (eg. Nokia, O2 XDA Atom, etc) have an FM radio chip installed where you can do exactly as you want.
Last time, i had problem in getting good GSM signal. Thus, I flash my radio rom to murata 1.58.21.23 that is recommended by other forumer. After this, GSM signal become normal. But, FM radio still can't get any improvement. I fail to get any clear FM radio station in scanning.
I'm newbie. Please help me to solve this problem. Is it different radio rom will affect getting FM radio station?
sorry for my poor language.
My FM Radio is full of bugs and the FM reception is very bad.
Is it working OK for you ?
What sort of bugs ?
no problems here...
Thanks for the answers...
The bugs are the following : sudenly the sound start to skip every 10 seconds.
Finally I cannot control the radio anymore. If i click on another radio station it will refuse to change....
Have you installed other softwares ?
I had same issue with external antenna for TMC...with original earphones acting as antenna there are no problems.
Im enoyed by th problem that i cant name the radio stations?! and it doesnt save the stations? only if i start it wil save, but if is exit its gone?? ot is it just me with air in my head?
I have to say that I don't think the reception is very good on this device - don't know if it is HW related or software related - but my X1 had a far better reception. I'm going to try the headphones from my X1 tomorrow and see if that helps the reception.
Update: Tried the X1 earphones on the HD2 and they didn't make any difference. Sat on my train with the X1 plugged into one ear and the HD2 plugged into the other - both set for 93.5 Radio 4 - and there is a world of difference. The HD2 - just doesn't pick up the broadcast signal well enough.
Confirmed,
After saveral days of test, it appears that the FM reception is really bad on the HD2.
Had no problem before with my HD1.
No FM radio at all
My FM radio even refuses to start at all. I just have the Windows icon moving for a while and then it aborts.
Or pressing any button or menu does the same. I am also using the headphone coming with the HD2 and others and it makes no difference.
Found out that this is a different problem, it was bound to a TT installation and required a factory reset to fix it. Works fine noe
Even after a hard reset, still have some troubles with this FM radio.
It works better now, but sometimes it refuses to change the channel. I have to turn off the radio and start it again to make it work.
fm radio work verry good for me

Hi, What is your radio prt ? I'm runing 2.06.51.07
i am not alone, my FM scan for chanel but dont find anything, i must set manual but the reception is real bad
same here, nothing to find
Whatever the ROM I tried, the problem is still here also....
FM radio works 5 minutes.
Bad reception.
Then kind of skip every 5 seconds exactly.
No way to change the FM radio station.
Crashes.
I guess FM Radio is an issue on the HD2. The proof is that xda's Power Radio soft does not work on the HD2.
Only solution, report this bug to HTC I think....
My Radio cannot work.
When I tap on the FM Radio icon, nothing happens.
Can anyone help, please?
Could be arial
Newbie here: - read the thread - tried to scan with provided earphones - bad result - nothing found
Tried with another set - same result
tried with Sennheiser headphones - found 10 stations - reasonable reception
I agree. FM Radio reception is poor compared to my N95 8gb. Also, I experienced same problem as you (10secs skip, freeze and so on).
Best solution: report to HTC.
Hi,
I've been trying to get the FM radio tuner working on my O2 serra which currently has radio version 1.14.25.32 on it. The tuner does work, but the reception is extremely poor and I have tried various different headphones, but none show any improvements. The thing is, I remember it working better than it does now, basically it seems to have degraded, but I don't know at what point, I'm not sure if flashing newer radio versions has affected it at all and therefore I have a couple of questions:
1) Does the radio version actually affect/control the BlueTooth/FM/wifi chip ?
2) Are there any settings or registry entires that can be changed to improve the reception ?
3) Is there a better radio version I should be using ?
When I start the FM radio app. there is a ot of static and the signal strength is full up and I can hear faint radio stations, it won't auto tune in to anything accept my FM transmitter use in the car, even then the signal strength only goes up to the 4th bar.
Sorry for all the basic questions but I've searched and read lots on here but nothing to really answer these question directly.
Regards,
Andy
P.S. I'm actually trying to get TMC working with hypergps, but the reception is making it useless. I even tried it connected to my car antenna with some improvement, but nowhere near enough.
Have you guys seen this one on your devices?
While listening to the music with FM Radio, go do sth else, maybe browse the net, and then come back to the FM Radio app... that exact moment the FM Radio app scans and skips to the next working frequency!
yep, this also happens to me
Also for me...
