Hi!
Just got my XDA the other day, and have downloaded Real Player to listen to the radio thru the internet. However, was wondering if therevis another way of getting radio when I'm out of Wi-Fi range? Any plugins or cards out tere that I should know about?
Also, any navigation system tips would be good too!
Thanks very much for all your help!

an FM (or DAB) radio input is the one thing missing from all these devices. I find it hard to believe no-ones sorted this out yet.
Firstly,welcome. a site i use to listen to lots of radio stations is www.live-radio.net not all work, but lots do. n-joy.

Very interesting!!
hmm - only issue with it is that you can't do anything else with the unit while listening (eg read a book/look through the files on your regular SD card. )
I agree it's exactly what you want if FM radio is all you want.
But it's still a shame the unit doesn't have an FM radio in the hardware.

Be careful if you are using usa fm tuners in the uk. They will not tune to "even" frequencies (ie: 88.8 ) but "odd" frequencies are fine (ie: 88.9).
Is that because Americans only program using 1's and us Brits only use good ol' fashioned 0's.
Bloody Micro$oft, you'd have thought they would have sorted this out by now!!!! :shock:
Why not buy a set of earphones with a built in FM receiver? Something like this: http://www.expansys.com/product.asp?code=128177
This one doesn't necessarily look the best but there are plenty out there.

Ok I have my first Windows Mobile phone it is a Cingular 8525 unlocked sim unlocked and CID unlocked and all that good stuff. I recently upgraded to Windows mobile 6 I can't remember the exact rom but it was something Black.
I do a lot of bluetoothing with my phones and am looking for a good rom for bluetoothing. Mainly I make ringtones and bluetooth them to people or whole songs. But recently I purchased a bluetooth headset and am wanting the best quality out of it. I do a lot of texting too so speed needs to be good. Any suggestions?

upgrade to the Dopod Official release ROM or use the latest Black ROM.... they are both the same and its the latest stable Bluetooth from Microsoft...
Also maybe I just haven't looked far enough but is it possible to let other non-wm phones send files through bluetooth to a wm phone?

No need to. The current BT implementation is kinda working, but it waaaay too far from being feature rich and reliable. He-he ... am I talking about BT or MS overall ? Anyhow I just tested OBEX push - failed both ways - sending or receiving a file from SE phone.

Hey guys. A bit new to the whole ROM upgrading so this might get shot down pretty quickly with a logical answer from you technical geniuses
Anyways, I have an 'XDA Orbit' branded Artemis, when it was on WM5 the FM radio worked fine, when I upgraded to WM6 with the official O2 ROM I still had radio, now I'm on an 'unofficial' WM6.1 ROM and for some reason the radio opens and shows that it is picking up the stations (for example Radio 1 where I am is 98.2) 'Radio 1' comes up and if I move about the signal level moves higher or lower depending on how I am sitting - but I can't hear anything through the headset or the internal speaker, have messed about with all the sound and options I can and still don't have any luck :S
Anybody got any ideas? Or even better does anyone know of a way to get Radio 1 working in Resco Radio? I enjoy listening to Chris Moyles in the morning when I get up for work, and would be even happier if I can fix this to listen to it when I'm walking to work aswell
Anyways, thanks for in advance for any advice given... my wrists are aching now so I guess thats a sign I have written enough for now

I too am looking fro FM Radio Software but am not sure if this can be achieved without in-built FM detector hardware.
Help please...
I also need to know about the FM Radio.. Because i searched but i found nothing.. please Help us!!
as stated without the fm hardware only way to get fm is to get a headset which include fm
which would not be controlled or anything by the phone but by the headset itself
i dont want to use panels on my X2 and there isnt a dedicated radio app on the X2.
anyone?
There is an app called PowerRadio, or you can search for the HTC FM Radio CAB... Hope it helps!
for japan tokyo stations too?
I tried the HTC radio program, but because the station channels dont go as low as 89.7 mhz, there isnt any radio broadcast while being in japan. Any idea how i can get radio to get as low as 75mhz?
Hi there,
This is first time i post a thread here so pls kindly help.
Im in Vietnam and have a Tmo Rhod. I did installed FM cab on device storage, it can run but did not find any station. I renamed file FM Radio exe.xxxx.mui with Vietnamese code, soft reset and this app cant works. I know it may be caused by radio frequency in USA is different from Vietnam, but any ideas on this issue to solve?
Hope to have your good solution.
Tks all.

Best way you can unistall it & try other
You know the headphones have to be plugged in for the radio to work, right? The headphone cable functions as the FM antenna.

First of all, as redpoint suggests, the headphone adapter and headphones must be plugged in.
Secondly, I'm not sure what the frequency range of FM radio is in Asian countries. In the US, it runs from 88.0MHz to 108.0MHz. If your radio station doesn't fall in that gap, then it's not going to work for you.
Third, MUI files are basically there for changing the language, not modifying the frequencies of a radio.
