Re: N900 FM Radio Calling
 

Maybe I should work this out further, will have a look at it this weekend what I can implement.

phonenumber as rds text should be simple with the fmtx_client.

Does someone know if it is possible on the n900 to activate the speaker programmaticaly? I found a solution for maemo but this isn't working for n900

Re: N900 FM Radio Calling
 

Maybe this could help (Phone Speakers Switcher). I don't know, I never tried it.

Re: N900 FM Radio Calling
 

Thanks, this helped me!

I made some progress:

• Store the original sound settings before routing the sound,
• "Phone number can be transmitted by RDS to the radio BEFORE accepting the call." (not tested, will I do tommorow morning while driving to work)
  
• Most important:
  When the application is running and a incoming or outgoing call is initiated:
  • fmtxd is started
  • routing through the fm-transmitter will be done automatically (no need for enabling the speaker and hitting the button)

So in fact the fm-carkit is doing what it supposed to be doing, act as a carkit :)

Next step is a nice widget or adding a profile to the phone settings.

Again, source is attached for people interrested. I will look into adding this to the repositories, so it can be installed with application manager.

Re: N900 FM Radio Calling
 

Incoming calls works perfectly, except for the number in rds. So maybe I will change this to the radio station name as the phonenumber.

Re: N900 FM Radio Calling
 

Dont suppose someone could point me in the direction on how to make an usable file from the source can they?

Thank you in advance!

Re: N900 FM Radio Calling
 

you have to compile the source within for example a scratchbox environment, and copy the created binary to your phone.

You can compile the source with the 'make' command.

Tommorow I will spent some time to create a .deb package.

Re: N900 FM Radio Calling
 

Looks like another very cool project is beginning :) Hope to see a GUI version soon.

Send me a PM if you need any help (or if you're just too lazy :P) about packaging.

Re: N900 FM Radio Calling
 

Thanks to Aranel, helping me packing the fm-carkit application.

I haven't tested it without the patched version of fmtxd, so I will do that and if it's not working then I add this to the todo list.

Todo:
- (Automaticaly patch fmtxd from a settings screen)
- Speed up configuring the sound settings, sometimes it takes up to 8 seconds after a call is intiated
- GUI

Re: N900 FM Radio Calling
 

Nice work!

Are aware of this other thread? Maybe both projects could be synchronized...

Re: N900 FM Radio Calling
 

Not sure if anyone else is getting this but Appman gives me a corrupt message?

edit: nevermind, installed it from xterm.
