Thanks for your help

I would go with the I Heart Radio app and try to find whatever local stations and get it going. Just an idea.

Sadly our local radios are not accessible...
So nobody knows ???

I looked many months ago for a stick with FM and found nothing.
But then you'd need an app to go with it.
Haven't checked lately.

How about a device with a mic port? You could output FM from another device into it and play it

I thought the point of using "Android Sticks" was to have everything in one small device.
Yeah, anybody can hook anything to anything, but that's not the goal.
My purpose has been to have a small device that can provide FM radio to all the people with phones or tablets that do not support FM. So the stick would be the 2nd device, and adding a 3rd makes no sense because it could just be connected directly to the phone, for the same 2 device count.

Stereo Blue tooth...

So the questions arises.. repeatedly. I don't know about the rest of you.. but I would like to sit my G1 down when I get in the car and pop some music on.
We all know it's soon to be possible.. the question is.. who wants to make it happen NOW?
There's currently two ways to go about it.
We can either
A. gank the A2DP update off the cupcake source and start coding for it..
or
B. Be really nasty about the whole ordeal, and start working on it from debian.
But really.. why be redundant?
The real question is, I do suppose -- if anyone else has beat me to the punch and ganked the cupcake bluetooth update for their images, or has anyone here already started work on a music player? I'm terrible at laying back and doing apps by myself for anything. I get distracted and forget So who wants to play with me? (HOT!)
Why not start releasing our own MASTER update.zip compiled version of whatever is on the android git? I hear it all works now...
It basically all does, except for motion sensing and closed-source apps such as the Google Maps, etc (I use AndNav and AndNav2 as alternates). Little strangeness around video recording, but overall it is pretty good.
Cupcake is out on the g2 or the vodafone magic check it out

I would like to do that as well...wait, I ust my car's stereo, where I basically have the same songs in my G1, but only in a louder setting.
How's this project coming along ... I hope one of you guys can pull the cupcake bluetooth stack and get it working on the G1 .... this is all I'm missing for now .. I just wish I had the time to try it myself
How about you post when you've actually created something instead of posting "gee i wish you guys would create x feature."
Christ, this is a developers forum, not a request-what-i-want forum.

RTFM, page 35:
"The phone supports only the headset and hands-free Bluetooth profiles, so if you try to connect to a device that is not a headset or hands-free car kit, then you will receive an “unable to connect” message."

Bluetooth Intercom App

I know this is an absolute shot in the dark but i just want to give it a try in case someone knows anything about this.
1. I'm wondering whether its actually possible to have 2 bluetooth headsets connected and working to a WM phone at the same time.
2. This would only apply if the answer to the first question is yes. Is there an app that would let audio between the two headsets through, just like an intercom.
What I really want is to pair two bluetooth headsets to my touch dual and have them work as an intercom for when i ride my bike. I know there are other options out there, but I would just like to know if its possible to go this route.
i have the same idea but no solution. I would like to use that on my motocycle
do you have any solution?
Hey guys, no solution for this? I'm interested in either winmo or android intercom apps...
Hi the same for me!!!
Hi guys I´m also interested in this kind of application for driing motorbike with mygirlfriend!!!
I found this one for apple (http://i-apps.fr/application+iphone+imoto+intercom-10461)!
I would like to know if someone is able to build one application like this for our android machine???
Go android, go bikers!!!
I would be interested in this also (Prefer Android.)
In a few days
Hi all,
i will release one that does exactly that in a few days.
When released i'll post the name here if you want.
Best regards
Thaks man!!!
Robelor you are the biker´s god!!!
Hey Robelor when will you release you application?
Greetz!!!
Hi all,
i have reread the question and i realized that my application is not "exactly" for that
What my application will do is to place full duplex calls over bluetooth with two android devices.
The use of bluetooth headsets is only supported on 2.2+ versions.
I hope to release in one or tow weeks
It's exactly what I need...And I know others persons which are looking for this too!!!!
has it been two weeks?
want to try it...
TIA
It is out.
It is a free beta because we still have problems. Most of them when using BT headsets.
It is called:
Android Intercom
Just look for "intercom" at market
Best regards
Just downloaded this! Can't wait to test it out on my Epic 4G!
I tried it but crash on startup on desire HD froyo 2.2....
I have some reports of start crash. It is the native encoder lib. It is only compiled for arm and desire HD is arm. I have tried on desire and it worked.
Sorry I will dig on that.
Regards
I'm not complaining at all!!! It was just to reported you problems to improve it...
Keep going on, I will spread this app to my bikers and android addict friends!!!
I don't understand how it works. pls help
·Pair devices
·Start on both devices
·Select the other device on each device.
*Now both are waiting for connection of the other but none trying to connect
·To start the connection process just say something loud enough so you can see green squares.
*This is because automatic reconnections use to end on phone reboot . And this way it is easier to reconnect when connection is lost
·When connected your voice will be transmitted only if it is louder than the threshold.
Please let me know what you thing of how it works. If you dont like it or whatever.
Regards
Has someone tried it successfully?
All my phone would do is create a hell of a lot of noise. I could hear another android device. Seemed to be stuck in speaker even if I played with the button. Muting was the only way the app was tolerable. Also there is no way to close the program. Close a connection yes, not the software.

HTC Desire + SonyEricsson MW600

Hello,
I've bought a SonyEricsson MW600 Bluetooth headset for my HTC Desire.
As some know it work fine except the song title and clock on the display...
Does anyone know if its possible to get the song title info on the display?
From what I have found is that the problem is the Bluetooth stack... or the phone does not send necessary info the headset.
/Christoffer
Hi CRzz
I ordered the Headset but haven't received it yet, but you might want to check out this app here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=4441100
I certainly will
The same app is also out for WM and I've read that it may work with the headset....
Regards
Preggy
Doesn't work for me.
Have you tested the 1.3.0 version? You can get it at the dev's site.
I got my MW600 today.
It works fine as headest an Remote-Controller for MortPlayer but only displays the Phone-Nr. instead of the Name. Also no Music-Title is displayed.
The Openwatch APP also doesn't work
Any Ideas?
EDIT:
I spoke to SE :
They told me that there ist atm no chance to get it work to see caller id (Name) an track names etc. with Android Phones. But its under investigation.....
My friend who has this bluetooth head-set told me that it worked with HTC hero.
He got song title on the display, haven't seen it myself yet!

I've asked SE about this and android phones, they told me that this is a known issue. They have the same problem with their own android phones!
I would not be surprised if it work on their own android phone and not on other brands... but it doesn't seem like it in the case.
Does anyone know if A2DP can be uppdated thrue radio update or what is that?
From what I understand A2DP feature is require to be able to get the text on display.

Have received my own MW600 and no, unfortunately - even after modifying all the settings - it doesn't work...
I have asked SE about this and they told me that the phone have support for A2DP and the other required profiles.
A2DP
AVRCP - Phone have support for the profile but can't send info using it, this one used for sending song title to bluetooth device.
HFP - Phone have support for the profile but can't send info using it, this one used for sending contact info to bluetooth device.
Anyone know anything more about this?

Lemme clear up some of the info here.
A2DP - Allows for the sending of high quality stereo audio via Bluetooth, ALL Android phones have this.
AVRCP - Stands for Audio Visual Remote Control Protocol, and allows for the controlling of a media device via Bluetooth, once again, most BT-enabled Android devices have this.
HFP - Required for sending contact or media information over BT to another device such as a carkit, some Android phones like the Desire have this, but most of the time it is gimped to only allow sending from the phone and not receiving.

Nice one there, Sir Boden and Crzz.
Got my MW600 today. All is working with my HTC Wildfire (Froyo) except that there is no display of music and contact info on the bluetooth device.
Guys, is HFP a hardware or just a software/firmware? If this is a software, then I guess our Android is ready for this when someone is going develop this HFP thing.

HFP (like all BT protocols) is entirely dependent on the software bluetooth stack allowing the profile. The stock Android BT stack has HFP support, the HTC Sense stack has gimped support for it. I'd say the MW600 is relying on 2-way HFP communication, which the Sense BT stack has no support for.
Swyped from my HTC Desire running LeeDrOiD 2.3d with Tapatalk.
Some more info I got from HTC
According to HTC the A2DP/AVRCP that Android 2.2 have is version 1.0.
To get the support one need's 1.3.
Is there anyone developing/porting this from some other phone!?
Just noticed that I'am able to see who is calling on my mw600 in the latest sense hd port. I'm using InsertCoin 1.9.1 rom. very nice!
although built-in player and poweramp won't display track info...
it has always displayed the phone number. Its the lack of media indication that people are complaining of
In that new base I can see the name of person who is calling! I knew that number was displayed all the time. Try yourself the new dhd base.

Hi,
is there any Update on this? Maybe it works with a Gingerbread ROM?
I'am still on Oxygen Froyo Version but going to change the ROM in next time.
If there is a ROM where this will work, it's possible that I will use this
read my last post (page 8) here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=12840578#post12840578
just be patient. once (IF) the ginger sense ROM is released, we should slowly start seeing an updated AVRCP. 1.3 is all we need.

The problem is that the FM section doesn't have a transmitter.
It might be possible to do something with either Bluetooth or peer-peer WiFi.

Hi Supremazy? I am interesting in the same too, did you find the solution?
I have posted this question on quora and got one good answer, but it's not full. If you interesting, you can search it on quora with the phrase "What a good ways to add FM radio support to Android or iOS device without Internet connection?"
Please, share what new information you have found so far.
Thanks yuriy,
I just looked at the link.But it's not exactly what i want.I want make this thing with new software but existing hardware.
I searched the play store i found two app (PTTDroid and Android Intercom) but they are really hard to setup and requires a wifi router.I love routers don't misunderstand.Actually it's good to use router for increasing range.
Other apps requires registration and transmitting sound from internet.
Walkie Talkie - Wifi & Bluetooth By Porchlight iPhone app is what i want.Just launch the app in two iphones/ipads(or more) and talk.

I do not understand why you suppose it is possible to run FM radio on iPhone without Internet WITH NO USE EXTERNAL OR ADDITIONAL HARDWARE? At least you need FM transmitter like iTrip. Other wise, how you are going to connect to FM radio wave?
I don't want to always carry a hardware in my pocket.Because of this i don't like additional fm transmitter idea.

That's the best option you have: Griffin iFM Radio Receiver for iPhone and iPod
Alternatively, it is possible to modefy hardware wich is quite costly, either connect to the FM radio device via bluetuth. Both not attractive as for me.
What you want is not possible technicaly.
I think I found the app what i want. It's name is WiFi Talkie Lite made by remaller. You can find on the store. Program's best feature is you don't need to a wifi router, you turn your phone to wifi ap with tethering. I didn't try the app so I didn't any information about usage.

What's the best app to use to accomplish walkie talkie in a place where there is no Internet access? Don't mind buying a hardware extension like a Griffin fm transmitter.

It is possible to use your Android phone as a walkie talkie over Bluetooth and also via wifi using ad hoc connection.
The following are the apps which make it possible.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.remaller.android.wifitalkie_lite
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.androidintercom
Yep i dont think the android fm can emit , its just a reciever...
Thank me if i helped .. ?
A good way
I have an idea but have a problem, it just works in the city and need some money.
You can buy a wifi router and a make a big antenna ,then connect the antenna to the router.
then download a walkie talkie app for your devices and connect them to the wifi router and use the app.
Note : You shouldn't connect router to internet (with phone cable , Dsl cable or other). we just need it's access point.
Sorry for my bad English. I'm from IRAN.

Use Kotix skin manager
Guys. I am still running kotix android on my s100. No real problems except the the igo not starting sometimes. Other issue u have is within Winamp. If I am listening to Winamp and stop somewhere and put it in park without turning car off, once I put it in reverse it changes the internal Winamp volume. Can't figure out why. Maybe someone can try to replicate it. Under the sound settings in Winamp it's the volume control on the right side. I always keep it at 3/4 but once truck goes into reverse after in park it goes back to the 1/4 setting
Thanks

I tried it yesterday on my C802.
Noticed they fixed some bugs but I'm unable to change Led colors.
Maybe this is why I installed a FW not designed for C802 or maybe... they forgot something
I remember that 1.6.9 had ability to change led colors.
