FM Radio on stock Jelly Bean - AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL

I had FM_Radio.apk and the associated files (service and widget) on my rooted, unlocked, pre-JB phone. Updated to JB and now FM Radio finds stations, but doesn't play any sound. Deleted/added FM_Radio.apk and associated files to system/apps, reset permissions. Same thing.
Any suggestions? I searched the forums but couldn't find a definitive fix.

Im in same sitution i can get fm radio to come on but no sound ive tryed everything and no dice,there was an old thread about this but links no longer work????

Are you using headphones? The wires act as an antenna. Also I recommend using spirit FM as it works perfectly

I'd tell you how to likely get "the" stock HTC app working again, but that's a secret.
I wrote the "secret" in another thread here, but I'm not sure anyone believed me, LOL.

Well I could be wrong, and I'd like to get confirmation yes or no, but I suspect that a stock HTC FM Radio app from a stock JellyBean ROM for a device with a Qualcomm WCN3660 FM/combo chip.
Is there a stock JB app available on a Rogers or International OneXL or OneS ROM ?
My suspicion is because I had to create a new Audio "Sub-Method" for HTC JB. Under Debug-> HTC it's the "Intent2 (JB)" setting. ICS used an "Intent1 (ICS)" setting.
I had to de-compile a JB HTC FM app to figure out Intent2, I think from a OneX+ perhaps. (And I don't think that app would work, X+ uses a Broadcom chip.)
I can't imagine why HTC made this change, but they did. Seems like silly busy work to me; there's no added functionality; just enabling/disabling FM audio to headset or speaker.
Hmmm, I don't think I've loaded a stock JB based ROM on my ATT OneXL yet. And aren't there stock JB derived ROMs with FM ?

No.
All my time is over-subscribed and allocated to paid customers of my app, and family and life responsibilities.
And it doesn't make sense to modify an HTC app when you can just grab a more recent HTC app.

I got the latest htc app thanks anyway for your advice

And it still doesn't work ?
If you REALLY wanted to run the HTC app, it might be possible to config the free version of Spirit to enable the audio while running simultaneously.
Somethin' like... setting the FM Chip to Emulator...

If it's consistently 30 minutes it might be some power saving mode. I've seen a few FCs recently on another phone, I'll keep an eye open for it.
As an experiment, you could try turning RDS off in the UI settings and restart Spirit.
If you have the Unlocked version, you can try the digital audio mode. Set Audio-> Method to "Digital Auto" and restart Spirit.

For what it's worth, I just use tunein radio. Probably my fave radio app. Uses a lot of bandwidth though

[Q] MIUI?

has anyone tried flashing MIUI yet? i was thinking about trying but was wondering if anyone else had any luck.
i searched this forum but no results.
Were all waiting for official source from HTC for the inspire 4G before we can do anything with AOSP based roms. It will happen..but not until after we get source cuz we need the driver for the sound/amp in the inspire.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
I can tell you that I have done it and have call sound working but no other sound. I am still playing with it but like other poster says it's going to take inspire source.
Beautiful rom though. I've used it on other devices before and it's one of the cleanest out there.
Looking forward to having it on Inspire. Friend in UK that's a dev uses it on his Desire HD and won't use anything else.

Isn't the inspire the same hardware as the Desire HD? That source is available.

No, the Inspire and the Telus Desire HD use a different sound/amp setup than the original Desire HD. So although most of the ROMs will flash on the Inspire you usually end up with no sound at all.
Miui is AOSP therefore you won't find a fix for sound, probally, until the source is released and I or someone can commit all the changes and keep sound in tact which shouldn't be too too hard.

if this gets miui, im upgrading from the aria immediately.
just flashed and didnt get passed boot screen haha
If you're using cwm 3.x you have to flash full wipe before install. It's easy to get everything working and have a useable phone but it won't ring and Jo audio. I put mine on vibrate. Ha!

Spirit FM now works on ICS

have tested Spirit FM on IceColdSandwich ROM and its working fine.
just set the audio method to 'qdsp5v2 plus/ICS' in spirit FM settings.
some minor bugs were observed - like the radio went mute when some particular system notification came in, but it was fine after an app restart. The signal and sound clarity was as good (if not better) as running on CM7.
enjoy. loads of respect to the Spirit FM dev!

FM Radio app
Hi
Try this FM-app, it worked well for me. I've got a Lenovo S6000H with JellyBean stock ROM running.
You've got to reboot after install and then You may've got a fine FM Radio with RDS and a recording function... What more to want? Oh, yes -a thanks won't hurt if the app does it's job and I'm happy, too.
Enjoy!
Oh, I didn't see this thread became zombie...
OH NO, I DIDN'T MEAN TO.... (ARGHH *head burst*brain splatter*)

Instagram problems.

Every ROM I'm on instagram freezes when I go to post a picture. Then my phone resets itself. Happens on ordroid and arhd

Same problem here, the wife uses Instagram on my phone and it kills it pretty much every time.
Freezing here too
Regularly freezes my phone, particularly during the application of tilt-shift and/or when clicking on the top right hand side arrow to process pic and upload. Really annoying. E-mailed them as well, hoping for a fix. In the meantime, no one cracked this yet?

this problem rekated with apk, not phone. i'm using xe with arhd without sny instagram problem but i tried same apk on desire, ideos x5 and galaxy ace, and noticed errors. if the program wants to work, it work like a charm. if it doesnt want to, you have nothing to do.
generally iphone port apps doesnt work stable.
I'm having the same issue
!! Help
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA
its new to android. give it time before the billion dollar app is stable on our phones. my phone has issues with it too.
sent from the Nudy Bar.
Since the most recent update it seems to be much more stable.
And by much more stable I mean being able to process and upload a picture without a hard reboot
I've found that if I reboot BEFORE I use instagram, it works perfectly. If I do NOT reboot it freezes. I've learned to work around this issue by rebooting BEFORE use. Then it works perfectly for me. My current Rom Beats by Grogg 3.0 v.B. but I think the reboots will work with ANY Rom. Give it a try. It solved my freezing issue, perhaps it will also solve your issue hope this helps! Good luck
Works for me!

FM Radio

How would I install an FM Radio (on-air using the built in radio tuner of HTC sensation) to senseless ROM? the HTCFmradio.apk force closes when installed/flashed.. thanks!
Just download Spirit FM from the play store. Haven't tested it myself yet, but I've been told it works. Don't think there is a free alternative to this app...

This.
Spend the $2. It's well worth it if you are going to use the FM Radio at all. (It would cost you like $30 to buy a stand alone portable FM radio that fits in your pocket)
Yes.spirit fm works.i tested it in both ics and jb aosp roms.
Sent from my HTC Sensation using xda app-developers app
HTC radio app works fine in HyperNonSense, flash the optional zip then just turn Bluetooth on before you start the app.
You won't get it to work on a truly senseless build at all.
Tune in radio pro also works well, but it's a streaming service.
