I'm sorry, let me clarify:

I still do NOT see the southern stars, and at each reset, the region changes back to 2. I also may be having some trouble getting the power boost working, so I would like input from others (see my last post)

@Maxximuscool - thank you very much for all your work to date on this issue. I'm still hoping these bugs can be overcome, if you need me to do any more trouble shooting let me know.

I don't see stars either, have no idea about region, but it's working -- have clear sound which was impossible to achieve before hack.

Thanks!

thank you , i done it but iwill have to try it tomorrow my brother borrowed my carfor awhile

Firstly many thanks to maxxi, jacekowski and querty (for the status menu applet), this is awesome!

Couple of things, I also am not seeing stars in the status menu although everything seems to work fine and the result of

cat /sys/class/i2c-adapter/i2c-2/2-0063/power_level

is 120.

Secondly, is there a reason why the Simple FMTX widget wont work with this? I'm holding off re-installing it in case there are issues,

Kind Regards,

I don't know why your device doesn't show the stars. May be some packages dependencies are missing for python.

But I'll post a work around toward this issue tomorrow. If python won't work on your device then Shell script will

Yes simple FMTX widget works but you'll running into cpu hogging after 24hours of putting it on your home screen. It will lead to lagginess and freezes. The problem is not from the hack. It's how the N900 handle the hildon-desktop. It's a bug.

So unless you want to keep rebooting your device every day. I'll keep this update tomorrow.

Thanks for your swift reply mate!

The widget was useful, but not necessary now with Querty12's status applet so no worries on that one, I'd rather save my battery/avoid re-boots I reckon!

RE the stars again not really an issue as all frequencies are available and I can start/stop transmission with absolutely no problem, as it all works the way I see it is if it isn't broken there's no need to fix it!

Just thought I'd let you and others know that in some cases the stars won't appear but everything will work fine

Again many thanks for all your hard work,

And you can unlock the application in order to receive FM radio from 76 MHz?

I will say that the car stereo only goes down to 87.5 so for day to day use that's as low as I've tried.

Kind Regards,

I mention this because in my area the frequencies are saturated.

We tried to communicate from one car to another and would be easier if we could use frequencies below 87 MHz.

We use multi-band receivers and spectrum width to receive.

Just got round to installing, works great. Now on 87.5 which is unused and thus clear.

Thanks
