FM-Transmitter

Hello,
Is there anyone that now if there is a program to X1 or any mobile that makes the mobile phone to an FM-transmitter?
Since there alot of technology like GPS, RDS cant that be done? Im very bad at this stuff and is very impressed by the programming persons that makes this stuff possible!!!!
Best regards John

i think its not possible cause it needs other hardware in the phone

Bluetooth is technically a form of FM radio, but I think you'd need some very advanced custom firmware to transmit analogue FM. In fact, some Bluettoth chips are also FM receivers. It's very low powered too, so you'd only get a few metres range from a transmitter. The chances of it being implemented seem very small.
But if you just want to transmit to your stereo, there are plenty of mini-jack to FM radio transmitters. They work best if there is line of sight between the transmitter and receiver.

... the Glofiish V900 has this function

the x1 doesnt have it, and i dont think it will. You can however search for an FM transmitter that will fit in the 3.5mm jack. these are sold in a lot of places and searching google yielded a lot of results. this is probably your best bet.

good day =)

transmitter == send
receiver == receive
transceiver == send and receiver
fm radios only have receivers
wifi/bluetooth are transceivers but only on 2.4Ghz Digtal signals using a spc. and only that protocol (it's how the hardware is made)
fm is from about from about 87.5 to 108.0 MHz analog
but this product
http://catalog.belkin.com/IWCatProductPage.process?Product_Id=166893
will transmit any audio from any device which can send analog audio
to a 3.5mm minijack
to the fm band one set it to
i have one it works ok not HD audio quality of cause but works

how to listen radio audio to bluetooth A2DP??

hi,
does anyone know if we can route radio audio to bluetooth A2DP ??yes i know that we have to plug wired stereo headset for antenna use. probably need a specific software to route it because by default radio audio you can listen only with wired headset.
thank you

Only way I know is to download radio over mobile internet if your data tariff can stand it. Seems pity and half the attraction of having radio tuner on A2P handset.
Slave aerial less bulky than wired headset would also be good when listening to radio through speaker.

[Q] Bluetooth AM/FM App?

This will probably sound a bit dumb, but here goes... Since Bluetooth utilizes FM frequencies, is it possible with the correct app to use your Bluetooth system as an FM tuner? Basically, is there or is it possible to create a program that enable a user to pick up FM radio station broadcasts with his Bluetooth reciever, and listen to them? In that same vein, is it possible to use the built-in Bluetooth as an FM transmitter, to transmit audio streams at frequencies that can then be picked up by a car radio, or boombox? this would eliminate the need to purchase an unreliable FM dongle, or adapter cable if you wanted to hear your device's music on your car stereo.

where did you hear that it utilizes fm frequencies? bluetooth operates at 2.4ghz like wi-fi (but different protocols).... when someone says that a device has a bluetooth/cellular/wi-fi radio, they dont mean it has anything to do with am or fm unless specifically said (ie; am-fm radio).. but, why would you even bother asking that question anyway? if such a thing was even remotely possible you would surely have heard about it and seen products for it all over the place, hell, a simple search on ebay would turn up thousands of devices if they existed...

Even if it were FM, the BT receiver would still require a tuner chip to bring in the different frequencies.

Can I listen to my EVO music through my car's speakers?

I have an interesting challenge. I have an Audi A4 convertible 2009 with bluetooth that enables me to talk on the phone with my EVO. I am not sure it is the "special" kind of bluetooth that will let me listen to music on my radio sent via the bluetooth to the car's speakers. If it is possible, I dont' know how to do it.
Also..is there anyway that I can broadcast via my EVO to an empty FM station? Has anyone ever heard of doing that? I just want to listen to music and no, there is NO aux jack in the car.
Thanks
Mike

lol, its not a 'special' thing
bluetooth supports different things.... and they are called profiles
for a detailed list of profiles (and to learn something click on this link http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bluetooth_profile#List_of_profiles )
what you are looking for is, for your device to support the a2dp profile aka advanced audio distribution profile.
inorder for you to stream to an 'empty' fm station, you still NEED an a2dp device... it'll just be coupled with an FM transmitter

if i was you, i would check if the option is available on my cd player first...

i wouldnt recommend bluetooth, atleast not if you have a stock evo, its just too low quality to enjoy, better off using a audio cable, an fm transmitter probably wont sound that much better then bluetooth, if you have caynanogen or another rom a lot of them do fix the bluetooth issue

This is what I do. Turn on my EVO's bluetooth and let it pair with my car. Once the pairing symbol appears on my cars audio display, select Bluetooth as an audio source on my car's stereo. I have FM1, FM2, AM, CD, Aux and Bluetooth. Now start Music on the Evo and turn up the volume at least half way on the Evo. Now I control the volume with my car's steering wheel volume control.
I think the part you are missing it to select Bluetooth as the audio source on your car stereo.

I plug mine into car stereo using headphone jack to amp input for slacker radio listening.
Its also a great battery life saver when EVO volume is at lowest level let car stereo amp do the work

[Q] fm transmitter

any read into the ns specs to answer if our device allows for fm transmission to stream device audio or navigation from phone to the car stereo?
