Has anyone tried this? We have the hardware behind it (twl6040).

I compiled the driver for it, and found the firmware blobs it wanted to load.

Insmod dmesg logs:

The radio app, itself, seems to want to work.

No audio. I'm not sure if I just need to use a mixer to map it or if I have further driver problems.
Sometimes I get these errors?
Code:
<3>[ 3081.753814] fmdrv: Response SKB ptr not NULL
<3>[ 3081.754577] fmdrv: Response SKB is missing
<3>[ 3082.530303] fmdrv: Response SKB ptr not NULL
<3>[ 3082.531036] fmdrv: Response SKB is missing

Anyway, I'm thinking it's possible with some work.

Well I definitely know that it's going to be possible with a little bit of work.
I managed to get a split second of audio from radio station while I was messing with spirit radio settings and unplugged the headset.
Don't know what I did because I haven't managed to recreate, but it was enough to let me know that it was there and just needs to be mapped.
If anyone else would like to work with me on this, here's the files:
http://www.mediafire.com/download/6296mev66ydlb2y/fm_radio_files.zip

the *.bts files go in /system/etc/firmware
fm_drv.ko goes in /system/lib/modules
omap audio-tool (which I just compiled) goes in /system/xbin

You have to procure spirit FM unlocked (from market or elsewhere).

Well at least I found a practical use for audio-tool. Apparently our sound chipset is normally configured for low-power operation. You can use audio-tool to change this to high performance.

I'm not real sure where to start as far as mapping.

    Has anyone tried this? We have the hardware behind it (twl6040).

    I compiled the driver for it, and found the firmware blobs it wanted to load.

    Insmod dmesg logs:

    The radio app, itself, seems to want to work.

    No audio. I'm not sure if I just need to use a mixer to map it or if I have further driver problems.
    Sometimes I get these errors?
    Code:
    <3>[ 3081.753814] fmdrv: Response SKB ptr not NULL
    <3>[ 3081.754577] fmdrv: Response SKB is missing
    <3>[ 3082.530303] fmdrv: Response SKB ptr not NULL
    <3>[ 3082.531036] fmdrv: Response SKB is missing

    Anyway, I'm thinking it's possible with some work.

    Well I definitely know that it's going to be possible with a little bit of work.
    I managed to get a split second of audio from radio station while I was messing with spirit radio settings and unplugged the headset.
    Don't know what I did because I haven't managed to recreate, but it was enough to let me know that it was there and just needs to be mapped.
    If anyone else would like to work with me on this, here's the files:
    http://www.mediafire.com/download/6296mev66ydlb2y/fm_radio_files.zip

    the *.bts files go in /system/etc/firmware
    fm_drv.ko goes in /system/lib/modules
    omap audio-tool (which I just compiled) goes in /system/xbin

    You have to procure spirit FM unlocked (from market or elsewhere).
