Have you plugged in the head phones. That acts as the antenna. The radio cannot work without plugging it in.
Regards

Is not working here in Japan as well. Plugged in the head phones (the original ones of course), but it cannot find radio stations.

Yes I did pluged in the headset. Without that the FM will not start. It can list 2 stations out of available ~5, but play nothing .
Edit:
Also today I sent this query to India HTC Tech Support. Lets see what they reply!!!

In Hungary as same, wont work

Try the app Power Radio it allows you to scan world frequencies. Maybe that will help you.

Hi All,
I could track down this... the issue is with the autoscanner for stations, which does not do a good job. Instead I listed all available stations here and did a manual entry and it worked great for me.
Hop this will help some of our friends here
Cheers!!!

FM radio????

Does anyone know if there is a FM radio in built or know some way to get on on the Dopod 838 PRO?
Thanks!
Kellogs cornflakes has them sometimes "inside" the box for free with certain promotions.
In all honestly buddy, u gotta read....
Don't know of an add-on fm tuner you can install, but if you have data services you can access www.thestreamcenter.com and you will find a link to just about every FM station in every market of the grand old USA.
I did read, for 30 mins.....just a simple yes or now would be really helpful
I read that the jasjam does have a radio......please any help is greatly appreciated!
yes the jasjam does have a radio.
......THANKS!, and to clarify that the dopod 838pro and the jasjam are the same unit internally??
So I need to search for a compatible rom with the fm radio enabled?
When I do a search for FM RADIO, all I recieve is radio in reference to the gsm radio.
Thanks for the tidbit of info!
I believe JJ was talking about the GSM radio in the phone. Don't get your hopes up.
Love your work JJ.
lol, ok, FM RADIO
To prevent possible further abuse, there isn't an FM radio built in to the phone. As someone posted earlier, you will need to stream any FM feeds that you want.
Resco Radio has worked fine for me.
Good luck though, let me know if you find it.
Thanks man ! i will keep reading..............................

FM Radio/DAB Radio for Kaiser!

Is there such a thing? It seems to be the one big thing the Kasier seems to lack. The Orbit has an FM radio built in!
Maybe a MicroSD receiver??
nope dont think ive seen fm radio on these kaisers. if im listening to the radio ill use interney radio. This is a good radio webpage as it shows you all the available stations
http://www.radiofeeds.co.uk/pda/
So what is ROM Radio?
So what is this Radio referred to in the build details when flashing a ROM for the Kaiser?

what radio and rom are you using? Maybe updating the radio rom will help.
Duttys V4 rom for diamond
and radio 1.09.25.23
any recommendations?
Weird. Does the car holder charge? What car is it (what kind of roof)?
it's a generic non-charging car holder for cellphones and pda's from Herbert Richter
Opel (vauxhall) corsa standard roof...
My N95 used to get perfect lock in the exact same place... but the diamond gets nada
do you have disabled A-GPS?
There's actually a hotfix from htc for GPS issue - may be it will help..
Copy the exe-file into the internal storage, click it and enjoy...
yeah it's off...
Ok, hotfix installed... will test it out tomorrow and let you know...
edit: Testing Garmin now and it seems to have about the same level of lock-on... but the test will be in the car tomorrow...
Same result... :-(
hard reset..
tried that...
the thing is if i hold the phone by my window or step out of the car with the phone in my hand... within seconds it gets a 10-satellite lock... it's just in the car in the holder that there's no signal... :-(
I honestly think it's not that car holder, but the windshield. Your car probably has a shielded or a treated glass in the windshield, causing bad or low reception.
If the GPS fix is almost instant when you hand is out of the window, it is pretty clear. Try your unit in another car (with a clear windshield, preferrably an older model to be sure) to see whether this is the case.
As a sollution, most of the cars have an area behind the rear view mirror where the windshield is not treated. As you cannot put your diamond there (it would be usesless, wouldn't it ), you can go for an external bluetooth gps dongle paired with your diamond (it actually offers a better GPS reception than the built-in one ;-) ).
try flashing a newer radio rom and .ril from this thread..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=439566 (Radio roms)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=494632 (.ril for matching the radio.
If your not "SECURITY UNLOCKED" then only flash a radio for your device/carrier and also those are for GSM phones only.
ok, which ones do you recommend? sorry i'm new to all this...
gonna give Quartz Radio 1.12.25.WSD a try... -> not compatible...

Where are you located? and who is your carrier? I usually use the newest radio rom, but download the radio rom and .ril that match's the one you have, so you can revert bact to it in the event that the GPS is worse. But I doubt that will happen.

Sorry, I linked the Touch Pro radio's.. There is a similar thread in the Diamond folders. So start by finding that thread and read the post associated with the different radios. Also some of the newer roms include a working AGPS, which will help for initial satellite lock times. But for keeping a lock, it's most likely the radio rom or hardware.
Here is the Diamond thread::::

Already using the highest recommended radio for the diamond...
Will just have to experiment with placement and maybe a new phone holder...

Radio v1.11.25.01 (Quad Band)(52.58.25.30H)
-Download HERE
How about that one? I don't know where the .ril is, but it's very easy to flash a new radio rom, just follow the directions and afterwards I always make sure to shut the phone off for several minutes (in hopes of clearing old GPS garble out) then start up.
But I have had a lot of flakey results with my GPS and different radios.
OK, new radio loaded, will give it a whirl tomorrow
---> Noticing degraded lock-on... only 3 satellites instead of 10... but maybe better performance in the car...

hd2 problem fm radio

Hello, I am Italian. those of you who have problems with the FM radio?scanning stations, does not work, I have to do manual
im in uk and im lucky if i can even get a signal for any station, this is the worst device ive used for the fm radio, tobad as the rest of phone is great
understand, then it is not just a problem of my device, hopefully in an update radio
(sorry my english)
+1
The FM radio is really bad on the HD2 (whereas it was good on the HD). Many problems on my French ROM.
The best thing to do is to report this specific bug to the HTC support here:
http://www.htc.com/www/CS_Mail.aspx
same problem here......italian rom......
uk... no problem at all, get every single station
I had the same problem and I solved it.
The solution is to use the orginal headphones. I don't know exactly which is the difference but try it and you will see.....
gets better with the original headphones, but did not receive the same touch-pro2
Hi,
compared to my Xperia the HD2 has a very very bad FM radio. Xperia gets about 15-20 radiostations, HD2 only one!

with which headphones, ive tried senhz hd595 + shure se210 + shure se310
The radio on HD is fine, but on HD2 the radio sometimes receives very good signal, sometimes completely dead. And for me it does not matter what headphone I use.
Hello
am still have this problem with all cooked rom, and don't know if is there any update for FM Radio software, currently have version 2.5 build 1919.4027
I am at Portugal, and have WP7.
Not catching any stations, i had a stupid idea. First loaded Zune and listened to music for a few seconds, then changed it to radio. Worked!
