Remember, the cdma Sprint TP2 does not have the hardware. No rom can change this one reality.

Try www.htcradio.com

Maybe I missed something somewhere, but everything I've seen here and on XDA says the CDMA and GSM versions use the same bluetooth chip (which is where the FM reciever is) and in an email from VZW tech support, they acknowledged the capability, but will not release software supporting it. They said I should use Pamdora or Slacker.

Apparently not exactly the same.

Sooo basically you are just repeating the same thing we have all known forever. The hardware is there but the software is crippled. Because that is exactly what the page you linked states.

Actually the software is not crippled. It's the bootloader that does not initialize the hardware address in the bluetooth chipset. As a phone is powering on, a number of "commands" <--laymens terms, are sent to various hardware components. Camera, phone radio <-- "not the fm radio", bluetooth irq's, It's up to the carrier wether or not they want to turn certain things on and off. So, the hardware is there, the software that works on the GSM versions, would most likely work on the CDMA verions if the FM radio was enabled. The FM software uses the standard windows framework, regardless, until the the hardware is "turned-on" we will not have true FM radio. I was working on it, and was able to actually get a response back from the FM radio back before the HSPL was released, but gave up to work on other projects.

Maybe you can provide some of your thoughts/work to people who are still working on it to enable it assuming you still are busy with other project.
