Hey
Is there a cab of FM Radio for Elf??
Thanks
The Elf does not have fm radio, never has, never will. It is not capable as it does not have the hardware; however, if you want to try it anyway - Try the FM Radio cab for the touch diamond.
I have already trying this but it doesn't works... Thanks for your fast answer
Sorry, It doesn't work because it can't work. As I said before, No hardware in the elf for FM Radio.
If you have a good data plan - Use can listen to internet radio. This is what I do and I get much better selection of music to listen to with no *(or hardly any) commercials.
Ok, good idea
i know that there is no hardware in the elf but is there a mod you can do to add the hardware inside the phone? or is there a mini usb attachment to give you fm?

Never heard of such a thing myself...
However, you can go to the dollar store and buy one of those cheap fm scanning pocket radio's - even comes with ear buds and you are good to go
Hi i think there is a bluetooth headphone with built in FM radio ( may be Motorola ! i cant remember ) you may search ebay or amazon
ok well thanks anyways for the help
hi all
I've heard that Leo can play FM Radio without headphone work as an antenna? I wonder at it?
Is there anyone can confirm that....
Thanks!
Negative m8, Leo's FM Radio needs enclosed earphones handset to operate as an antenna.
I would love the day the manufacturers could put in a antenna to allow use of the FM radio without putting in a headset.
I hate using a wired headset.
Try one of these, no need for headphones and a bit cheaper!

Its a phone ffs, lol
Mind you they are getting bigger, so one day you could have a £500 fm radio with built in antenna.

i dont think its as easy as just putting radio antennas inside a body of a phone.
one might have to think about interference to/from the phone antenna, wifi antenna, bluetooth antenna, gps antenna and any other antennas already present in the phone.
I don't think it's even physically possible to make an antenna small enough to fit in a phone which is sensitive enough to receive low-frequency signals like radio.

Mmm..I dont know how to say but I just heard that from someone. They said Leo could play FM Radio without headphone in new coming Rom update. Any Mods here knows it?
It is not a bad ROM, it is because of radio-frequencies all need antennas that fit their special wavelength to work.
If you use radiowaves you can use antennas that are only half or a quarter of the wavelength, so 10cm waves need 2,5 cm or 5 cm antennas.
Radiowaves in FM are about 4 m wavelength, so you need 1 m antenna!

The FM Radio tool from the HTC Debug Tools (On the prototype phones) does work without earphones.
Also tried the tool in my release phone, als also there the fm radio worked without earphones....
just a few more months and the Sony Ericsson MW600 headset will be availlable with build in FM radio.. I have a SE HBH-DS220 at the moment and it works great sound is awesome..
I wish we could enable audioboost with A2DP

does it recived channels and you could hear it without head phones
i don't bother the built-in FM radio. Try use WunderRadio. Internet-based radio. Of course you need unlimited data plan for this to work.
Some walkman phones have built in fm antennas like w960, and some cheap chinese phones too, i don't remembor which one though, i read their test on mobilearena long time ago, so if it is possible.

That's great, except when you are on the move and lose data coverage which is exactly what makes the FM radio useful.
I just had the july 8 nrg rom in and the fm tuner would open & receive a few channels with NO wired headset plugged in & played it though the speaker..
I want to know if the fm tuner capabilities are based on the rom in general or a specific "fm tuner driver"
Currently on kumars 2.4.1 and of course the fm wont open without a wired headset plugged in : (
hi all after plugging in headphones to my htc hd2 i find the default htc radio not get a very good signal at all, my older omnia1 got a great signal all the time but this ones iffy as hell, will installing another radio app work any better or is it juts a **** radio reciver built in
i live in Nottingham, uk and have tested the stock htc headphones, shure se310 and also the big sennheisers hd595
are there even other apps compatible with the FM hardware
emmm i tought all apps were compatible with all fm radios ?? am i wrong to think this
This thread isn't about radio images, it's about the FM radio found in the HD2.
My question is: Is there any way to get it to work in Android?
Also looking for fm tuner in android.

It works but only in Android with Sense.
Yeah, it works. But it doesnt work very well because it doesnt have an antenna and the headphone cord doesnt work as a very good antenna if you ask me, because reception is pathetic. HTC really failed on the FM radio on the HD2.
Try TuneIn radio from the market.

It work's pretty well for me, signal is fine almost everywhere except the city center.
Does someone can ear FM Radio on the HTC HD2 (with headset connected). The frequence is always bloqued at 87.5 Mhz, no way to search a radio or to change the frequence.
If someone knows a good .apk for FM Radio, I want it
I'm using RafDroid 4.2.0 Ext (Nand v2.2.1)
Thank you...

Try Spirit FM Radio. You can find this by searching the forum or market.
Sent from my HD2 using xda premium
Thank you, but same problem with this software : BroadCom chip found, but no FM feature started
Perhaps the wrong hardware driver
you gotta use htc oem headphones for it to work. i ordered a pair and the radio started working. 4.99 on ebay
I found myself the solution , the only way for me to have FM Radio : switch on BlueTooth before starting the FM Radio program... It's on the same Chip !
Have a nice day
I'm a bit late to this thread, but...

I'm surprised about that. Other 4 contact jack headphones won't work ?
Which "Audio Method" are you using ?

I believe this is a Broadcom based device, so my "UART Mode" should work if Bluetooth is off, and if my app has access to SU/root. But the app needs the Bluetooth UART device to be one of the following (unless you configure a custom setting):
"/dev/s3c2410_serial0",
"/dev/ttyHS0",
"/dev/ttyHS1",
Thanks !
MOD EDIT: Please post in right section
