Pics of the MTs Mobo - Motorola Triumph

Here are some pics I took of the MTs mobo. Interestingly enough the vibrate motor is on the top of the phone, by the camera. IMO opinion it's stupid placement and explains why the vibration is weaker and worse than other phones.

Quetion about Wi-fi and bluetooth

I am really interested to know is the wi-fi and bluetooth in phone using same module or there are 2 different devices inside phone one for bluetooth one for wi-fi ??
There will likely be 2 different chips handling those duties (likely 2 antennas as well), but they will likely be on the same circuit board.
most devices with qualcomm cpu's have wifi and bluetooth integrated into the cpu chip itself

[TODO] Enable FM Transmitter

The combined WLAN / Bluetooth / FM chip in the Defy ( WL1271 ) is able
to not only receive FM Radio, it can also transmit Audio !
Both solutions support Bluetooth specification v2.1 + EDR, and provide FM transmit and receive functions to turn the handset into a personal area broadcast device.

So another locked feature that would make the Defy even better.
This thread is to collect informations that could help to enable it.
I always wondered why nokia is the only company (I know of anyway) that puts FM transmitters in their phones.
It is such a good way to listen to your music in unfamiliar places like friends house, rental cars, work cars.
This would be awesome to see working!!

I know this will be the dumbest question to ask, but can we also use it with mic and speaker for it to make it work like a two way communication device. Eg; police radios
In my opinion:
everybody must wait for the motorola that they would open the bootloader for the developers who will write the necessery drivers... like the 720p record and touch to focus

I think you have hit the nail on the head there. unless the defy has suitable aerial which i doubt because you have to use headphone cable for the aerial.Might be wrong thought. hope i am because this was a great feature of nokia's

It's hard to tell.
There is no datasheet and the drivers are closed source.
If the chip does not require additional circuitry for the transmitter,
then there is a chance to get it working.
As antenna you could just cut the cable from an old headset and plug it in
while transmitting, if the same antenna is used for receiver and transmitter.

I think in theory this could be possible.
But as the range of the transmitter is max 10-20 meter, this would be
very limited
Maybe from one room to the other.

Yayy, feels good to know i can think electronics thanks.
so.... if defy have an internal antena, i can listen the radio via bluetooth?
It could be a very nice car kit for the people they don't have bluetooth inside.

If you don't care about others listening to your conversation while you are in a traffic jam . It's OK for music but i would never use it for conversations.
The defy would be one hell of a phone if you could get it to work, and the one/ones behind it one hell of a developer. At least to me. Can't understand how you guys discover everything and a few days later you show up with new stuff to play around with.
Is there anything you cant do with the Defy?
Crazy phone, freeking unbelivable talented developers!

The transmitting antenna has to be a tunned length known as the SWR (standing wave ratio).The length of the antenna is extremely critical.
If a driver enabled the transmitter , but the was no antenna present irreversible damage could be coursed to the hardware.
The antenna will be internal.if the is one.

That is basicaly true, but those transmitters are only allowed to have some nanowatt (in most countries) . I think its rather unlikely an untuned antenna would break the output stage at this energy level. But i am not shure
But anyway, after reading some infos about the chip it looks like it has a seperate Antenna output for the transmitter that needs to be connected.
It seems unlike the Bluetooth part, audio cannot be send to the transmitter over any data path. It has to be connected to dedicated analog or digital (I2S) audio inputs. So the only way this could work at all is that Motorola connected all needed lines and just did not add software support.
I dont know how likely this scenario is ...
The transmitter is normaly controlled over the Blutooth interface via HCI.
Commands can be found here:

This would be the first.app I pay for.

Transmitter of any kind (bluetooth or FM)

I know the phone has a fm tuner in it. is there any way to transmit from the phone to say the radio in my car without having to use an adapter. I was asked at work today by a coworker if there is anyway to stream. I use tune in radio or pandora to listen to most of the music i like but i have not ever thought about trying to get the phone to output it to my car. This would be really cool if possible. Does anyone know if there is a way either harware or software to make it work?
Thanks,
Joe

As you note, it's an FM tuner, not a transmitter. I use the Bluetooth ADP profile to output audio to my car. If you don't have bluetooth builtin to your car stereo, but do have a line-in jack, you can use something like this to pick up the audio signal from your phone and transmit it to your car. I have one, and it sounds great!
thats what i thought but it never hurts to ask.
Thanks,
why not just use an AUX cable? seems to be the same concept and with out less static... those transmitters transfer alot of static too.
Im sure if your car has bluetooth A2DP streaming is available. i have it, but i just use the AUX less batter drain

The Bluetooth receiver I previously posted has always been static free.
but with an aux cable you get less battery drain and you use the hifi wolfson headphone amp/ultra low power audio codec (assuming you use the headphone jack and not the car dock which uses usb audio converted by a probably lesser codec/amp than the one the phone is equipped with)
also since when do we have an fm tuner? i dont see an fm radio app?

hmmm, that is the wifi chip. ok there might be potential as the chip works as a transmitter for wifi frequencies. but it may only work as a reciever on fm frequencies. it may be more plauible to use this as fm radio than the phones that have fm support in the gps chip though.
edit:
looked at the link and it describes is as a transciever, this might be posible, not sure if it is plausible. id imagine it would need a great kernel dev. without full documentation it is hard to tell if there needs to be supporting hardware like an external signal amplifier, i also doubt we have an fm antenna but it might not be too hard to add. but it does seem that we have atleast part of the equation here and the concept of an integrated fm transmitter for your car radio would be really cool.

Nexus S FM radio from i9000 Miui?

I was browsing the miuiandroid.com homepage today and skimmed over the changelog. I saw that they have added FM radio support to our Galaxy S cousin, the i9000 (http://miuiandroid.com/2011/10/miui-1-10-14-changelog/). Do you think it would be possible to get this going on our Nexuses? I always seem to be buying phones that lack FM radio
i thought FM needs hardware support?
or just via Internet like an online player plays radio?
It does need hardware support.. But considering the chip inside the nexus s is actually capable of fm radio, we just need someone to work out how to get it going.
I don't think it is possible, there is an app called Spirit FM Radio and this is what the developer said concerning the Nexus S
"Sorry, I think Nexus S can never work. No antenna, power or audio connections to Broadcom chip and it doesn't have the Silicon Labs FM chip that the Galaxy S has."
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=18235624&postcount=1437
And here he said: "Yes. End of road. Google cheaped out. Unless you're very handy modifying the hardware...
It's a dev phone and no dev has enabled FM likely because it's not possible.
My Galaxy S is almost identical (except it has an SL FM chip). I've tried to get FM out of the BCM4329 that the Nexus S shares.
I even got a direct to Bluetooth headset mode going that doesn't need a wired audio path. Nothing, not even FM static.
The RSSI registers do the same jumping as those other phones that likely have the FM power pins disconnected."
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=18104025&postcount=1411
So I'm afraid we're out of luck.
antenna or chip or some stuff like that , are not so called "hardware" ?
read somewhere on the forums saying that the chip is capable. just nothing is connected. good luck soldering
i think it is not working on i9023.FM need a hardware support.

If all it needs is some soldering then where do I find out what to solder to what? For FM radio I'd do whatever it took. Had a vibrant and added a ffc just cause I could and never used it. I'd actually use FM radio so I'd be that much more motivated.

Very few people are capable of, or have the equipment to solder/de-solder/re-work modern chips and PCBs.
The Silicon Labs FM chip used in some Galaxy devices isn't there. Perhaps there's a place to solder one in. If not only choice would be the FM portion of the Broadcom BCM4329 BT/WiFi/FM combo chip.
I think you'd have to:
- Re-connect the Broadcom BCM4329 FM power pins somewhere useful.
- Do same for antenna Rx pins. May have to add some components for headset cable as antenna.
- Do same for audio pins.
IMO, not practical. Trade for another phone is easier.
Apparently the new Galaxy Nexus is supposed to support FM...
Go to radio shack. Buy a cheap FM radio.

[Q] built in FM Radio ? !!!! ...

so guys,
tmo LG G2 it was released without FM module
tmo LG G3 it was released without FM module
tmo LG G4 it was released without FM module
tmo LG V10 it was released without FM module
i really hope this time T-Mobile wit LG G5 has received us requested on Twitter channel about this lack !!!!!

http://www.fiercewireless.com/story...-chipsets-following-sprint-and-att/2015-08-17
a lot of (international/EU/china/...) phones support FM radio because it's relatively trivial (fm chip is usually integrated with BT/WiFi , and it uses your wired headset as antenna)
manufacturers just sometimes don't wire everything together (maybe fm chip has more licensing costs, or costs more money to wire the chip properly to the headset jack)

I tried getting my fm module to work on my GS4 with VZW, it's really simple to get it working, everything is wired as it should be but what they do is they solder the antenna pin to ground so it hears nothing. had they not grounded it and used a trace that went anywhere it would work.. sucks considering what you pay and you can't use something as trivial as FM...
