use an alternative apps such as tunein radio.

My Sensation has an FM radio. I need to use the headset as an antennae, but it does have it. (TMOUS version)
It's a tablet dammit! Not a BIG phone....

Well I'm actually looking for an app to stream music from my sensation to home theater using FM rds. I used to do that on my Nokia n900. Just open radio settings, set FM frequency to any thing like 99.0 and in music player there was an option that enabled FM transmission and vola ! play songs on any device that has FM.

Ok got one app but it says it doesn't support our device. I guess I will have to work it out using dlna.

That's not the same thing you asked in your initial post. The HTC Sensation DOES have FM RDS which means it can receive data from the radio stations such as the name of the station or program ("BBC R3 - Mozart Piano Concerto No. 12" for instance).
BUT it does not have an FM transmitter like the N900 or N97. So you cannot do what you want using FM frequency. (You could using Bluetooth).
I hope this answers your question.

Hmm yeah! Got it. Will try streaming via dlna. Unfortunately my home sterio does not have dlna, but my TV has, so I will have to set my TVs audio out to sterio and then stream it. Man! Its a long process. Wait, HTC has some dlna adaptor addon for older TVs and sterois.
Thanx for answers.

AM radio app?

Is there an app for AM radio? I like the fm radio app, and I was just wondering if there was a similar app for AM radio.I'm aware of the various apps that let you listen to internet radio, but I was hoping for something that didn't eat up my data lol thanks in advance for anyone's help!

I don't think that android devices have an antenna for AM (might be a size-related thing), I think you'll have to get an app for that..

Thanks for the reply, I would think that since fm radio is possible, AM would be. I just want to listen to football and baseball without using up my precious data lol

It's true, except mine, (from wind) had a radio app (FM radio) that worked. For some reason only wind's phones seem to be able to do that.

Thanks

Thats True no FM Radio for GX2, why they left tha spot there and not hook up?
How much data the TUNE IN waste?

Isn't there a way to reconnect the radio and modify the software to get it to work?

If I remember my reading correctly, the hardware doesn't have FM capabilities. There was a thread that went through the debug responses from the chip, and the functionality just isn't addressable by software.

Even if I did, it would not work without the libs and proper kernel config.

everyone says it's "not connected", what if someone actually CONNECTED it?
What i mean is.. there's people out there who mod circuitry, and make thigns, like those arduino modules.
would it be possible for someone to soder/wire some connections to this radio chip so that it got power from the system, and worked?
for instance, the "wind" one seems to have SOMETHING working..
would it be possible for one to get it working themselves, and then have the system use it?

Am fm radio apk

FM RADIO still nothing???

good morning
I'm wondering if there is a kernel/rom that allow to listen fm radio off line.
thanks

Nexus s doesn't support FM radio

IT doesn't have the hardware. Use an app over wifi or.... Hmmm... Use a radio. What are the like 3 dollars for a battery powered portable radio. Honestly. I :banghead:

Buy one of those headsets that has a built in radio receiver,because NS doesn't have a radio for, well, um, radio. according to the laws of conservation, we can't just materialise a radio out of nothing/nowhere, no unless you're magic, NS won't have a FM radio.

Hardware it's inside the BT chipset, but it's missing the necessary wiring to make it work, as well the kernel driver...

Radio App

Before i flashed jellyfirebean i had the stock android 2.3 that came with my HTC Desire S, As i used the radio app, i noticed that it used the headphones as an aerial rather than relying on an internet connection, however now that i have flashed a new rom that option is no longer available to me, the ability and hardware still exists but i have no app to be able to do this.
would it be possible for someone who is on the stock rom to just export it over for me into an apk, or could anyone just reccomend a radio app that can work without using an internet connection
sorry if i have posted this in the wrong place i am a newbie

Search for Spiti FM here on xda or on play store. Its a good replacement for radio.
