That's a dual... Amazing, I didn't think they would ever have anything like that. You bought it from Best Buy didn't you?

cool radio were did you buy it !!!

This is not a ROM development matter.
Moving to Kaiser General.

You'll care when you have only had it for a month, and the motorized thing in the front stops working.

It looks like a cylon's third nipple.....

Music ID...iphone identifies song playing through mic...is kaiser capable too?

http://www.tuaw.com/2008/01/07/make-your-iphone-listen-to-your-radio-and-tell-you-whats-pla/
came across this...it would be really nice if there is an app like this for the Kaiser, or Windows Mobile to where i can just launch the app, put it near where the music is being played, and it will identify it.
There is, A app named Music ID (Originaly from the AT&T Tilt).

In the UK you can dial 2580 from your mobile and put the phone mic to the music source. About 30 seconds later you get a text with all the song info.
http://www.shazam.com/music/portal
There must be other services like this.
I love how it was such a big deal when the iPhone became capable of this.
Even crappy motorola phones have done this for years.
would be cool for tilt
If you are an AT&T subscriber, you just dial #43 from your phone.
There is a charge for the service.

I don't personally have this service, so I can't give you any more info, but you can check out the link.

well actually, its more like i just didnt know until i came across the article that it was possible with the device. I'm no fan of the iPhone....but that doesnt mean the feature is nice, and plus, its a third party app...
I am actually on the T-Mobile network and was hoping there was an app to do it rather then a service...
Musicid - Working Version! For You

Very cool Nadavi! So, there is no fee for this?
Where does it get it's info from?
Thanks!
works like a charm! Thanks!
for everyone else: This program comes standard with the AT&T Tilt
Tried running on WiFi, but that didnt seem to work, but worked on tmobile data, thanks a lot! =)
anyway to get it working with WiFi though?
If it comes standard on the Tilt maybe someone can compile a cab?
It'd be great if it could run off WiFi, Canada data is expensive!

The software is free. The service is not. For instance, if you're an AT&T customer, I believe there is a $3.99 per month fee for the service and you can look up as many songs as you want.
http://www.wireless.att.com/source/music/mobilemusic/musicid.aspx
This software is handy piece of software...I'm amazed at how it can identify songs by listening to them!
I'm a bit confused about how this is supposed to be a service that you have to pay for. I am not an AT&T costumer and I can use this software on my TyTN II over GPRS or wifi to identify music. How is it that they charge me for this service?
Here's the cab. I'm surprised nobody posted this.

Think tank : fm radio for vibrant

The original galaxy s has the ability to transmit and receive fm radio. I also know that the vibrant has the exact and chip but lacks the drivers. If we can get the ffc to work by actually adding new hardware then we should definitely be able to get hardware that's already on the phone working. The question is, of, there a dev that's, willing to do this?

Indeed.
A bit hard to find, due to "fm" being too short. But it is right there on the 3rd page of search results for "fm radio."

I assume you are being facetious?
Lets say you are not:
There are areas with poor data coverage.
FM Radio uses lets battery than streaming.
Not all stations streams.
Streams often fall off for no reason even on a computer with a high speed connection.
Gyms broadcast tv sound via radio.
TuneIN radio is buggy as hell.
I could go on, but since you couldn't possibly be serious in your question and also non-retarded enough to understand an answer, I won't.

Should look through the original thread and ask a MOD to close this one since its a dupe of the original...
I would actually be more interested in transmit then receive, but both working would be awesome.
CM6.1 has an FM tuner app included too. So I can hope for CM and FM transmit/receive
I'll throw down some dolla bills for this.

Truth is the app is anything but crappy and I would speculate you haven't tried it. How were you able to determine this solution drains more battery? Thanks in advance.

I am perfectly serious but in a way that would not be considered aggressive, rude or of assuming nature here is my experience and general thoughts.
I have had 0 issues at all with Tune In. I have not found a single radio station in my area I couldn't grab a stream including the AM channels for the sports people. In my city data coverage is a non issue. I have had perfectly good experience with this and threw it out there to help as this topic has already been covered although in length for those that haven't searched. I am still curious about the battery comparison though. Where did you get that information? I have had great battery life experience but haven't jacked with any radio devices on any of my cellphones. As far as gym's broadcasting TV stations via radio that is a huge advantage. I hate the treadmill and bang my cardio outside which is why I like tune in for the AM in case there is a game on. I would never listen to anything TV related in the weight room as I am always there early am or later in the evening and not really a tv person anyway expect for sports anyway. Just my .02 cents.
I hope this alternative will help some people.

Well, yes, its true that you can get a lot of stations streamed via internet, but the thing that most of us really want, that absolutely needs fm radi working, is the FM radio transmitter. What that will let you do is play a song from your phone and transmit it through and FM radio band you choose. That way, if you dont feel like listening to music on your crappy phone speakers while driving, you can listen to them on your cars nice speakers.

If you have an aux in on your radio, you could connect your phone to that. I'm using a blackberry audio gateway with my car and it works great. Some newer car radios have bluetooth built in. FM is super crowded here and transmitters just don't work well.
Would like it for the rare times I use it.

With HDMI mirroring, does sound also come out of the tv?

.. or does the video show on tv but with the sound still coming from the phone? I'm thinking of preordering the device and this would be very helpful to know! Thanks.
Also, does the huge spacing on the bottom of the phone bother you guys who actually have the device?
The sound is coming just from TV. I'll check it again when Im back from work.
Niiiicce. Thanks!
Sound def comes from TV.

When you are plugged into the TV, sound and picture are only going through the TV. But when I think about it, notifications and ringtones still comes from the phone (a very nice feature from LG IMO). Also if you are watching a video, the controls for the video are shown all the time on the phone while the video are playing on the TV

Eonon GA8163 - Where to start with Roms/Firmware?

I purchased one of these but it's definitely not with-out issues. I've done some reading and see that someone has installed Malaysk's software on an older model and it fixed several issues including audio quality and speed. It's been years since I've last performed a root, firmware and rom installation.
I *really* don't want to brick this thing... and Malaysk's posts are making me dizzy with the broken english translations.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
If you dig that broken english bro, you should head over to the RU forum hahaha. There is some great info there, but you gotta learn what the Google translate really means.
I was gonna purchase this exact unit for my GF and was wondering if you could tell me the build, version, MTCD XXX, etc info from it, I would really appreciate it! I currently have a MTCD XRC 7.1.2 August 15th in my Audi and was wondering how things compared.
Thanks!
Well, I just ordered it for her so I will know the answers to all of this and MORE, on Wed!

I've this unit for 2 weeks now
I have MTCD_WWW_2.59_1
7.1.2
Had some issues with FM (sound is mute every couple seconds), and Eonon send me an update.
The new firmware did a good job for the FM issues, it's better, but not solved.
The new MTCD version is now WWW_2.62_1
But after the update the unit is not long in standby, max 5 minutes... after that its completely off...
They're investigating it now, hope to hear soon.
They are willing to help, like it.

I actually just bought this couple weeks ago..
After several issues with payments, where they asked for my drivers license to verify my credit card, after already charging my credit card.. After denying them my "life-long" identification, I was forced to complete the transaction through PayPal..
Overall, I have already lost about $10 CAD after the refund.
However, I just received my package yesterday and set up just the head unit. I still yet have to finish the GPS, Dash Cam and Reverse Cam.
So far, the WiFi isn't all that great and the Bluetooth is pretty limited in terms of connecting to things other than a phone.
(Tried with a Bluetooth keyboard, won't work)
FM Radio does sometimes mute randomly for a second or more.
I will keep in touch on this forum and hope we can workout our issues together.
P.S.
I'm a computer science student, so I know my code.. just need more familiarization with this specific android product.

Yah the FM issue may be due to signal strength, but I do not understand why it gets muted instead of just getting static.

I notice this issue when streaming audio with Pandora or Soundcloud. Sometimes it stops after a while. Not sure if it's a software or streaming issue.
One thing to note is if you have the Bose system, there is a 6" or so cable with a black box that needs to be plugged into the main stereo cluster going into the car (since the bose system already has an amp.) The mids & lows are horrible with the Eonon unit... I messed around with it for a couple days before I realized that the Eonon equalizer is just garbage. Install https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.desaxedstudios.bassbooster&hl=en and use that equalizer.... But don't bother enabling the bass boosting function. The equalizer is all you need to have near factory bose audio.
The bass boost equalizer app has to be launched every time you re-start the car to fix the audio quality.

Hope to hear more from you. Interesting that I'm not the only person having issues with the audio cutting in and out. Starting to regret this purchase honestly. I might ask Eonon for additional help (which we may never really get) and I plan on doing a detailed video review about the unit and customer service once this journey is over.

Please share a link to your video review in the event you do one. I recently got a 2013 Mazda 3 and this unit seems very interesting (moreso with the prospect of custom ROM support), but there doesn't seem to be much detailed info or reviews online for it. I'm definitely keeping my eye on this thread.
Honestly the quality of this machine isn't that good. It's unreliable and eonon doesn't care.
