The CLIQ/DEXT has fm radio receiver!

[tehoaislimau]

hello - i finally managed to launch the FM app into the phone, but..
the static noise in my phone is horrible.
i have tried multiple headsets with varying performance, but the static is unbearable.
I have to stand fixed in a certain position to make it audioble..
Any ideas

anybody using in handler 1.4??

Many of us have the fmradio app with handler 1.4...everything works except for sound which handler has noted numerous times it is a kernel issue...but it is definately being worked on and may be fixed in 1.5 and it may not

On Orange Dext, stock ROM updated to 1.3.20 FM Radio works.
i installed fmradio.apk, and then adb push lib files in /system/lib

Did you install on the Stock orange ROM without rooting?

I get a read only error when I try to push the libs.

you need to root access to modify /system

Thanks sublime

lichop has suggested in the official moto forum that he has done this without root

presuming lichop = licho

If I wanted to root Orange 1.3.20 would I follow the instructions here?

From here http://www.modmymoto.com/forums/showthread.php?t=529793 i got the files. At windows, because on Linux adb not working ( i need to do some config, but some day) type these commands:
(you can put files in folder where is adb)

adb remount
adb push libfmradioplayer.so /system/lib
adb push libFMRadio.so /system/lib
adb push libfmradio_jni.so. /system/lib

Copy FMRadio.apk at sdcard, and with Astro File Manager you can install the app.
Reboot the phone and that's it. Volume control is not working, when i connect bluetooth headset i can change it. On the display appears bar, which says Bluetooth Volume.

adb remount , remounts system partion, so you can write there.

With Better Terminal Emulator, i can type commands but "su" does not work. I am not the first user of the device, but previous guy just used for one day - switching on, and realise that is too complex. The phone is not rooted, i got the latest update 1.3.20 from Orange. With OS Monitor i found there fmradioserver in the memory. Fmradio console app was there too, but not working propetly.

edit: lichop = licho (here licho is taken)

Does the phone have to be rooted? And if it doesnt is it compatible for 1.4.8?

[hadesz]

Could someone attache the source of the apk?
The libs are great for Galaxy Spica, but apk doesn't work

This is an old thread. Most of the 1.5 roms have FM radio. You can look at them for the information.

2.1 roms will have the ability as soon as Motorola releases the kernel source.

Closing thread.
