Some FM channels are weak, is there a way to boost the reception of these channels? Any software or tweaks that increases the gain for FM singals?

Guys is there an FM stereo Cab file for the Hermes that will enable me to listen to FM radio stations?
Thanks in advance if its possible.
unfortunatly no, hermes does not have an FM receiver.
....... Yeah its part of the windows mobile 6.5 rom that will boost the cam to 5 megapixels and incease the built in storage to 4 gigs.

Hi,
When I use the HD2's builtin FM player I only get noise.
It can't find any radio stations, also doesn't play them if I manually select a correct frequency (101.0FM or 98.7FM or 87.6FM, Netherlands)
What should I do?
Do nothing. The radio on an HD2 is about as useful as a kick in the goolies.
There is a registry tweak to alter the sensitivity, but this will just waste 2 minutes of your life as it makes no difference at all to the reception quality.
The HD2 is great but its radio sucks balls.

Couldnt have put it better......
Some have said that a different radio will make a difference.......
In fact, if your HD2 does have a functioning radio, it is a faulty unit and should be returned for repair back to its normal state (static across all frequencies).

Can you point me to this tweak? I've got 2 minutes to waste!

Hi Greg,
I can't lay my hands on it right now but I am 99.9% certain it is contained within BSB Tweaks - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=589305&highlight=bsb+tweaks
Good luck.
Has worked for me on all roms and radios ive used...
Bought my hd2 ~6 months or so ago, that 'UK' version (trough the internets), using it in the netherlands, had several official and several custom roms, several radios, and the radio has always worked a-ok?..
Just to be certain of my reply i tested just now, it works, im located near amsterdam (~15km) if that matters.
Maybe 'you all' actually got faulty radio antennas or something??
Excellent, I will move to Amsterdam straight away!
I want to listen to my HD2 radio.
I highly recommend Mr Banana that you take your HD2 straight to an authorised stockist who will be happy to 'repair' your radio back to its natural state - broken.
lol nah thx.
Besides, seeing how i was to jumpy to wait on a dutch release, ive got no warranty whatsoever
Warranties are vastly over-rated. I believe them to be a trick employed by secret Government departments to control citizens' movements. Some people even believe that warranties were used during the Gulf War by Saddam Hussein as a chemical weapon against the Kurds.
I have no evidence of this but I too have no warranty cover for my HD2 due to my propensity to flash ROMs in an inappropriate manner.
I tried flashing some different radio's but still couldnt get it to work.
I made a video for you guys so you can see exactly whats going on.
At the end of the video is full specs of the device including what software versions + radio. Volume is very low, if you turn up the volume you can hear the "gggggg" noise when the radio is supposed to play.

The reason I want my FM radio to work is to be prepared when TMC/RDS becomes avaiable so it can communicate with iGO
Hope it helps!

solution should be simple.
My HD2 warns me that FM radio only works with headphones plugged in, since it functions as the antenna.
I can see you do not have the headphones plugged in, hence, the static.
Trust me, even with head phones plugged in...................
hisssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss
You may be able to pick up a signal by ramming a wire coat hanger in the 3.5mm jack and standing on the roof of your house though.........
I would try it but I dont have a ladder
I never realized I had to plugin the earphones for antenna function. I tried it and I have radio working now! Thanks!

My FM radio works well, when I am outside.
Inside stores and such there are too many interferences, a lot of the time.
"I tried it and I have radio working now! Thanks!"
you are welcome, And the first person I was able to help on XDA
Glad to hear it............ Mines a complete turkey.. indoors / outdoors......
Im gonna try my own advice and see if that helps.... glad the problems sorted though.......
I really used to love the audio quality in windows. Now this was only the case when using audio booster. It just made the highs higher, and the midtones richer.
Is there anything like audio booster for android? I really miss my custom presets
i 100% agree with you winmo + audio booster + srs wow hd completely pwns android in terms of sound quality. Search the forums for "meltus audio hack", i remember using it on my g1 and it helped a lot. (there should be an app in the market too however you should check it is comatible with our builds first)
try LVH 3.6 (Loud Volume Hack 3.6) need rooted rootfs
louder volume hack only works for g1 and mytouch 3g he hasnt updated it to support new phones
*Bump* Anyone that can make a Program that looks and works as good as: Audio Booster v2.5? i'm even willing to pay for it!

In the market there's a music player called PowerAMP. It costs about 2 or 3 bucks if I'm not wrong. There you have a 10 band equalizer and so on. Try it out.

same problem, or similar ... under wm 6.5 i used srs wow hd to boost audio for youtube and other video.
Under froyo, the nand one, nothing yet...anyone can help?
Evening all,
I've searched pretty hard but can't find anything on this. Is there any way of tuning the FM radio below 88mhz? I want to pick up a signal around the 70mhz mark. It sounds like it's possible on some of the Galaxy phones by editing a registry entry. Any idea if it's possible on the Defy?
thanks heaps
matt
So I've found the Spirit FM Radio app on here that supports the Japanese frequencies and goes as low as 76mhz FM. It doesn't allow any lower than that, though, unfortunately....

I didn't go crazy about the g2 sound quality like I did with Samsung 7.1 surround sound and stuff but if your g2 is rooted you can have audio quality better than Samsung with an app called viper audio fx. It's pretty much an equalizer that let's you tune and save any preset you create
