Re: FM Radio Discussion

On topic. In hklm/software/drivers FMS is the only entry without a common entry and 1 of 2 without a device entry. Anything goin here?

Also, in hklm/drivers/builtin fms is only one without flags entry and object entry. I thought this may b necessary, idk.

Re: FM Radio Discussion

juggalo has said that he has flashed a diamond rom to the touch pro no problem. the only thing that i believe he said didnt work was the keyboard and obviously the FM radio. its not the same between the two phones. either something is missing from the touch pro, or we just havent figured it out yet. either way, flashing a diamond rom onto this phone isnt the solution.

Re: FM Radio Discussion

Ok, heres what we know.

It probably is not in the registry.

A new rom doesn't work, although some roms will allow it to scan and lock onto a station as opposed to the stock which does not. Meaning that maybe there is a possibility to unlock somethings in the kitchen.

A diamond rom does not work. So the hardware could still be the same, but something pre-rom is causing the problem.

Most people seem to think it is SPL related. I don't know anything about the SPL and I have no idea where to start besides google, so I will be trying that soon.

It probably is not hardware related, why would they change production in order for the FM chip to be disabled? Most people say this would be way too expensive.

Someone also mentioned Kernel, this may be the SPL, like I said, I am going to try and research this a little before long and see what I come up with.

If anyone has anything to add please feel free to fill me in. I wanna know if No2Chem is still around, he seemed to be on to something at some point in another thread I saw in the upgrades section. Maybe he is still working on it! He has always been a big help around here!

Re: FM Radio Discussion

for the last time, the issue is either SPL related/hardware related, not kernel related. the diamond kernel runs fine on the tp (with the exception of nonfunctional kb) but the FM radio still does not work.

Re: FM Radio Discussion

ok, two other things that I must mention.
first,
The guy at mobipcs is a member here on this forum but I have messaged him here and he doesn't seem to answer. I dont think he visits here often at all.
Second,
he told me that he got this file from the forums. He did something to it as well. I dont know what that means, but again, like I said before, I am just sharing with the community what I know.

The Rapidshare just finished.
I just setup a "collectors account" with rapidshare so that more then 10 peoplle can download this file. BELOW IS THE LINK...PLEASE POST ON YOUR RESULTS. Hopefully someone much smarter then I (Which is probably most of you here) will figure out what it is that gets this working and why these two guys are claiming that its working on their handsets.

Goodluck

Lightbulb Re: FM Radio Discussion

Okay... Here is a recap of what we know and what we do not know..

1) We know for a fact that there IS a FM Receiver on the Touch Pro

2) We do not know if there is a hardware block stopping the FM Radio to work or if it is software related..
  • If it is HARDWARE related, then there is nothing that can be done except tearing the phone down and removing/modifying the issue at hand..
  • If it is SOFTWARE related, then it is either an issue with the SPL or the FM driver.
3) We are waiting for either an official fix from Sprint/HTC or somebody with enough programming skills to modify the software component (if that is the issue).

4) I personally have somebody that works with Sprint and HTC looking into the issue. However, this is not the place to discuss if it is credible or not.

5) There are pictures of teardowns of the Sprint Touch Pro and of the Sprint Diamond that people can compare to see if there is a hardware block in place...

6) Do not lose faith in this.. With the minds of XDA and PPC Geeks, anything is possible..
