Why PowerRadio?
The built-im FM player - at least on HTC HD - misses many features i'd like to have in a FM radio. PowerRadio delivers many data available via RDS which would otherwise be invisible to the listener. Here are just a few examples: - Radiotext: contains information broadcast by the respective station. What you get here totally depens on the broadcaster. You might see title and interpret, call-in numbers, SMS trafficservice numbers, URL's etc. - traffic announcements, program type, coverage area, date, time, timezone, various status flags More info on RDS can be found in this post. ![]() Note: symbolic picture. HD2 is not currently supported. You like Power Radio? I've spent many hours in writing this app. If you like it, why not buy me a coffee to keep me awake during the nightly coding sessions? ![]() ![]() Thank you for your kind donations Marta F.P.

I am using Raphael 6.5 ROM too.
I couldn't hear anything after installation but I couldsee RDS data on the screen. I closed and replaced GFMAPI then it works. Suggestion: add indicator of loading/unloading progress such as a spinning hourglass.

Heya. Nice to see you released your radio
Looking quite good! I like the classic yellow/brown look.Just two remarks I found so far.. 1) When on speaker mode, shutdown and restart, it's on full volume. Woke half my family with it ;-) Could you enforce the previous volume on startup? 2) Could you change the sensitivity setting to allow higher sensitivity? When at 9 I still get way too many 'static noise' stations. I need it to go to at least 15 or so. Besides, sensitivity is more like 'minimal signal level'. Else a value of '0' implies less sensitive, while it seems to be even more sensitive.

Hi,
That's great for a start! I'm impressed! I have found some bugs: - The volume level is louder than the volume indicator after a close/restart. - After a close/restart, the names of the preset buttons change from for example "87,5" to "87" with the "5" under the "87" (see pics)... After that the preset button for my example tunes to "87" and not to "87,5". If I try to edit the name, only "5" is editable. - There's a problem with the police you use: after I use Power Radio, the font of the task manager on my Touch HD is replaced by yours (see pic)... I have to soft reset to get it back. Will it be possible to: - store more presets - store the name of the station instead of the frequency during the scan - add the possibility to record the radio ![]() One more question, but it may be for flywhc: when the reception is not good, the name of the station can be misspelled (the other information also can be wrong)... I thought the checkwords in RDS groups could help in detecting these errors and not transmit a wrong block.

Hi, Looks good however it isn't working on my verizon diamond. It opens and say wait loading forever. If you close and restart the ap I get can't open GFMAPI. I also noticed that it changes my HTC task bar font to the digital font. Well i'm looking forward to your next rev. Thanks for the hard work.

I have no plans for writing another audio recording app, but it should be possible to integrate with an existing one. Will check that out. Quote:

After closing PowerRadio, you have to wait for approx. 10 secs. before restarting it. This is due to hidden threads running in background after exit. I'll add waitcursors in future releases to indicate that. You could try to run a manual scan while it still displays "wait loading", or manually step through frequencies to a known station. Please let me know the outcome. |
