FM Radio for Wizard
Hi there.
I have been looking for an FM Tadio for South Africa. Which one do you use and is it freeware?
Thanks,
MAC
Am using Resko Radio and it's shareware. You can get a 30 (I think) day user period.
You mean Resco Radio, and that's not FM it's streaming =)
Resco Radio is exactly for internet radio broadcast playing.
Its not an FM radio tuner !!
Any FM tuner available for Wizard ?

Hi Wizzer,
The only way you can control Bass and Treble is via a media player like TCPMP, Mortplayer etc where the software provides several equaliser presets. Mortplayer & TCPMP both have a Bass booster option as well.
Resco Radio does not have that option unfortunately.
I am actually looking for an FM tuner that is freeware/shareware at under US$10.
Thanks,

I found that the default A2DP setting in Athena is used JointStereo,
After I use Registry Editor change JointStereo value to normal stereo the sound quality is become poor,
many high frequence tone in my I-tech Radio (I-tech R35 with radio function),
but this problem haven't appear on jointstereo.
I don't know why HTC use jointstereo than normal stereo there may be some reason was hidden.

Hello seems to be a recuring problem of all HTC phone
just see threads of hermes, P3600, etc
with my Artemis i have the same problem, i try to change joint stereo or bitpool and i get very very poor sound
so i resigned to let the HTC setting , it make poor sound but "earable"
so the question is : why ???
in artemis i forget it because of the 180mhz poor processor (remenber htc didn't activate A2DP in prophet because off it)
but i was expecting that X7500 work great with A2DP blutooth !!!!
what the hell are doing the htc's technical team ???
i can't beleve that !!!
i think that this time i'll pass the X7500 and go to ETEN or ASUS
regards
What is sound quality of normal wired headphones?

it's more depend on what headphone you use, and because of this, i am pretty sure my DOPOD U1000 generate the greatest sound i won't go in details of this, because this is a PDA forum not a headphone one
Great A2DP Quality!
I agree with Wu, the audio quality of the A2DP is amazing, the best I have experienced using Bluetooth A2DP, plus the distance I can have between the headphones and the Dopod U1000 is even better!
I am using Motorola's HT820! Great sound!

Agree 100% .
I don't thing U1000 provide great sound quality! I try same headset (I-tech Radio + Shure 4G) on different A2DP device Asus535, O2 Zinc, G-Smart i+, Dopod900 and Dopod U1000. Only HTC device have high frequence tone distributed to A2DP headset. Other device provided a stable and great sound quality on A2DP.
it brilliant with my nokia hs-12w

if you have shure 4G, then don't use the bluetooth, plug your headphone straight into the socket, otherwise you will waste the headphone.
For everyone else, unless you really like the idea of having bluetooth headphone, otherwise to archive maximun sounf quality, you should plug your headphone straight into the Athena
Hmmm when I goto the FM radio there is no sound coming through the earphones. Check the volume is up and nothing at all. I have to rescan each time, and that re jogs the sound output through the headphones..
Also the quailty doesnt sound amazing at all, even with technics headphones.
Music player works fine.

When you scroll with your finger to a frequency you have to press stop and then when you set the frequency press play.
Am pretty pleased with the quality myself, all works well, tunes fast, all the RDS data with station name and program info works.
My experience of the radio is that its utter crap. I tested it on a number of strong signal radio stations and all of them come out mono, no stereo from the radio at all.
also the sound quality sounds like a crap speaker sitting in a bean can. hollow sounding rubbish, very surprised that they can make a radio that rubbish these days.
Mp3 player sounds great though, nice clean full sound.
you can listen radio online
I thought I read somewhere that you can listen to the FM radio through the phone loudspeaker instead of the headphones?
If so, how???
You can but you would still need the earphones as they act as an antenna

fm radio .. what about transmitter
we have an fm radio at least one step up from nexus one..
does anyone know if the chip has the hardware for an fm transmitter.. maybe someone can implement an app for this..
thanks
Fm radio is mono or stereo
Pls help.
My FM Radio is still MONO.
FM Radio on SGS is MONO or STEREO ?
For what is still MONO ?
It's stereo
The headphone that comes in the package is not good, please use any other headphone[I used the iPhone 2G headphone] and the FM radio is "stereo"[I have Galaxy S in India], the FM just need any headphone not necessarily "samsung". Try this, I have tried it and it works as expected!
-Pramod
I'm sorry for the stupid question, but how do I check whether FM is running in MONO mode or STEREO mode on my phone?
I use other headphone - Coss Porta Pro. FM Radio is still MONO.
I use active loudspeaker, still MONO.
Anybody has STEREO FM radio ?
Pls help with this problem.
I have radio playing MONO too in my SGS. It's not much important for me, but I think it's serious bug in Samsung's flagman phone that costs more than 500 $ ...
did you people even read the previous message, the #2 reply?
the FM radio is STEREO you just need to plug in a STEREO head phone for it to work.
in areas of poor reception it might sound like mono, but that happens even if you have a $3000 car stereo, it's not the phone fault for weak FM sources radio station.
in my city there is a channel i really like to listen to 103.5 but the reception is very poor on most FM radio at home/work/car unless you are near the source, which is on the other side of the city.
luckly they have Online streaming, so i listen to them online when my FM radio reception is poor in whever i happen to be at the time.
mine always plays mono...

The standard head phones are stereo, you don't need other.
Checked with an STEREO TEST MP3.
But my Radio is also always MONO

Sennheiser CX300 are the mono headphones you think?
I'd plugged many different headphones, sound ALWAYS MONO instead of mp3-player that STEREO. All radiostations in good quality of reception always mono. It's a bug of Samsung...
Can the fm radio become a fm transmitter? Dumb question I know.

Hardware wise there is no reason why not but the software doesn't exist.

Another question here, Why can not we use the Fm Radio without headset? Does not this phone have an antenna for Radio?
It's so annoying because I am using a bluetooth headset and Desire HD insistently asks for wired headset for signal.
FM antena
Hi, I think that this is a usual think that mobile phones doesn't have a FM antennas built in. It uses your headphone wire as the antenna.

Exactly. FM transmission is using wavelength of about 3 meters, so the antenna should be much bigger than the phone itself to give you a good reception. You can try to fabricate something out of a 3.5 mm jack and a wire, but the results will be more than doubtful. And in top of that the phone will most probably recognize it as a headphones set, so you'll have to route the sound to your BT headset, not the antenna.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
Even though we manage to establish a antenna as you said the phone directly gives the sound to it and unfortunately eliminates the bluetooth sound transfer. It's really really annoying.
Briefly you can not listen to Fm Radio with your bluetooth headset, you have to use a wired headset.

Hello dr.m0x, merry christmas,
not only the antenna is quite different for fm radio, the complete transmitting hardware needs a different part of hf amplifier for fm frequencies. Software doesn't help here.
The original headset seems to be optimized as fm antenna, tried another headset but fm radio had poor radio reception.

Additional info.
DHD's FM radio receptin quality is really poor compared to Sony Ericsson WM600 bluetooth headset (including radio).
