What kind of message do you get? I tested this with dpkg -i fm-carkit_0.2-1_armel.deb and using the application manager.

Btw my n900 is on PR 1.3

Yeah it installed with dpkg fine, but when opening the file to run through the appman the installation pop-up, tick to confirm, stated the install would be 0kb. Then a message appears stating "Installation file corrupted", will re-download and check again.

edit: on pr1.3 also.

Re-downloaded and still produces the above.

Haha .... so foolish, restarted the device and viola! Sorry for the mess about!

How it should work (for now):

1. Start application from terminal
2. Make a call, when call is picked up, fm transmitter is automatically started and sound is automatically routed through the fm-transmitter.

OR

Wait for a call, when the call is coming the fm-transmitter is started, and when the call is active (answered by you) the sound is routed through the activated fm-transmitter.


No need to press the speaker button, the sound is possibily re-routed on the normal way again.

I haven't tested it yet witouth the patched version of fmtxd (usr/sbin/fmtxd) as described by qwerty12:

Prerequisite:
fmtxd patched: fmtxd, using http://maemo.org/api_refs/5.0/5.0-fi...5a46afdad43a94, checks to see if you're in a call. So open up /usr/sbin/fmtxd in a hex-editor (I used vi on the tablet itself) and replace "sig_call_state_ind" with "sig_call_sttte_ind". Make sure that the transmitter isn't on whilst doing this and that fmtxd is not running.
The patch will be implemented in the next version so you can toggle the patch from a gui.

Re: N900 FM Radio Calling
 
the problem I see with this is you have to always have your radio on and set to the correct Freq .............. what if you want to listen to a CD or radio station? will this still worK?

Mediaplayer is playing over FM.
Incoming call comes in, mediaplayer paused. Seems like fm transmitter is deactivated and activated for call.
Call ends, mediaplayer resumes, FM-transmitter stays on and mediaplayer voice is routed to int. speakers, not over FM.
After ~30sec FM-transmitter stops and started again (by mediaplayer?) and mediaplayer's sound comes from car audio again.
This doesn't matter if i start fm-carkit under normal user or root.
Under user i get error "alsactl: save_state:1530: Cannot open /var/lib/alsa/asound.state for writing: permission denied" but didn't notice any differences in transmit behavior.

I dont see the problem, Save the n900 as radio station. When u have a call, just switch to the station.

Works good for me. Awesome hack.

fm-carkit 0.3-1 is now available in extras-devel, with a nice status-menu-widget to toggle the status...
