@leetnoob: the qt mobility methods to change stereomode do not work. If you open app from terminal to get the debug on, after you start the radio and press ctrl+S you get the current stereo mode: 2 is for automode, 1 for mono and 0for stereo or viceversa. Pressing ctrl+D should force it in stereo, but as you try again ctrl+S it still shows 2. I'm looking to change it through sys interface (/sys/class/i2c-adapter/i2c-3/3-0022) when I find where the stereomode is saved. .
