I have been looking around trying to find out more info about the issue of fm transmitter appearing not to work when I have car charger plugged in and i'm a bit confused having read what seems to be contradictory information...

Bug 6792 seems to suggets it is a bug, and although not fixed in 2.2009.51-1 update should be at some point in the future...

Various posts I have read on here seems to suggest that the strength of the fm signal drops when either PC usb or car charger USB is plugged in thus causing the charger issue in the car...

So, here's what i've found:

1/ FM trans won't work when plugged in via USB on PC and I get a little yellow message telling me so..

2/ FM trans will work when plugged into mains via Nokia USB charger

3/ FM trans won't work when plugged into car via genuine nokia charger (can't recall model number)

I've installed FMBoost and it doesn't affect 3/ above.

So, my question is, is the FM transmitter car charger thing a bug? Does the latest firmware released on 16th Feb (which I still can't see!) fix it? If not is it likely to be fixed in a new update at some point or is it something which will never work....
