Thanks alot gionni88 for such an awesome contribution....

This app is rocking my days and credit goes to you only..

Just i want to highlight if there is any chance to toggle on saved radio stations using volume key while fone is in locked mode. That could be a great feature to be added, if possible..

Thanks for the great contribution so far....

I have set camera focus button (the camera short press) to go to next saved station. To keep button working even when screen is locked package rootsh is needed.

Option to enable/disable it included as well in settings window.

Will include it in next version.

But... I have just checked and on my N900 bluetooth gets powered down after 10-20secs QRadio is closed. So just wait a bit and bluetooth will be disabled.

Yea i notice the same thing....you have to wait a bit before it work again. I guess it's like a PC program....sometimes you close it and thought it's shut off but the process is still running in the background and you have to physically close it. So i don't know if this is a hardware issue or software issue.

Hi

I use this radio almost daily. I like the option to stop/start the radio, when the radio sound dies every now and then.

There where actually two things that killed the radio. Incomming call and system sounds from SMS or new email. I like the new feature which stops and starts the radio on a call. Could it be possible to do the same (or some other way to do something) for the system sounds. Currently the radio needs a stop/start everytime a new email is received.

@oiv: to stop the system sounds you have to put silent profile, which will stop QRadio as well. Instead put QRadio as same level as system sounds editing the file /usr/share/policy/etc/rx51/syspart.conf adding

Code:

/opt/qradio/qradio

at [classify system] (should be line 270 around). In this way radio audio won't stop if you get an email notification. Incoming call will still stop it if you have latest versions.

Version 0.4.5 in extras-devel, which enables short camera button press to switch to next saved station. Option is found in settings window and it's enabled by default. Won't interfear with shortcutD, but pressing the button will trigger both of them. QRadio will force button active even when device is locked.

hi,

restarting radio after a phone call works but the frequency changes!
Before a call I had 102.6 after the call when the radio starts again it gets set to 102.0!?

Am I the only one?

Also could the latest used freq be remembered between closing qradio and running it the next time?

These are good news indeed! It can go now to 0.05Mhz in manual mode and I can confirm that by hearing, since its not shown on the screen as (1)xx.x5. but it doesn't matter. What is only matter is the mono only output. I've seen in older versions there was an option "force mono mode" which is gone since version 0.3.5. Does it mean a stereo sound could be achieved then? (I couldn't figure myself because older versions' links were removed).

Thank you for your help but unfortunately it does not work. I did set /opt/qradio/qradio just under [classify system] and rebooted the device but no help.

When I receive a new email the radio gets silent and the handsfree microphone is activated.
