Tutorials for Using SpiritFM and iXperia 8 Update Status

Tutorials for Using SpiritFM


1.Open Spirit FM and go to setting by press setting icon or menu key
2.Go to Debug>Scroll down to Fixed Volume>set to 50>back
3.In Regional Band>set to the band which could give you clearer playback.
4.Now the tricky part,In Audio:
i.Set Volume Scale>to 20
ii.Output Mode>Stereo Force
iii.Output Device>Headset
iv.Method>Sony Ericsson
5.Now u will hear a buzzy sound >back, search ur channel & go to Setting again
In Setting>Debug>Volume Ctrl Stream >2-Ring & Exit Spirit FM


NEXT

How to toggle between headset & loudspeaker
i.Open Spirit FM again with jack plugged in
ii.Now u will hear sound on headphone,right?.Slowly unplugged ur jack & Adjust a vol button
iii.U will hear loudspeaker sound as soon as u adjust a via vol button.set ur desired vol & plug in ur headset again for better signal
iv.But remember, Dont adjust a vol after that or u will back to headphone mode unless u want to.
iv.Its will stay on ur current mode even after u exit the apps.
iv.So basicly Ringtone volume is ur toggle & Headphone jack is the trigger....never mind,as long as it is working

it's not compatible with naa06, even though it's unified, there are a few roms which are compatible with it, kindly flash a gb kernel to get rid of your problem
