does not work for me even after hcitool scan. It appears to enable the microphone and transfer that over to headphones...

Same words about BCM i2c error and "probe of 3-0022 failed with error -5"

Device from the summit as well.

ok, update. It works after hcitool scan done from user account in xterm. Very weird, heh

Those with the probing error in the dmesg output, please try to run the attached program as root (gunzip first). It powers up Bluetooth and I2C. Then check its return code, and manually load the fmradio kernel module.

Be sure to unload the fmradio driver first; it stays loaded even when initialising fails.
Code:
rmmod radio-bcm2048
Code:
bcm2048-i2c 1
echo $?
insmod /lib/modules/current/radio-bcm2048.ko
Then check dmesg output again.

Finally you can unload the driver again and power down the I2C:

Code:
rmmod radio-bcm2048
bcm2048-i2c 0
Please report your findings, esp. the return code of the bcm2048-i2c invocation.

I had the same symptom once as VITB. I shut down radio and BT which coms always on when starting FM radio and opened it again so it worked.

It's curios that the radio signal is very bad when using Nokia headphones with microphone. With headphones without microphone the radio signal is perfect and the volume level is a bit higher. It sounds like the tuning be a little beside the real frequency.

I don't have an example, but think of something light in the background (eg. light, blurred out vertical lines similar to the foreground), that move slower than the foreground when you scroll the dial. Another idea is a dark background image (eg. user changable), similar to the Maemo5-widget-view-backdrop.

A simple effect, but should provide a very slick look.

It works fine as far as I can see. No dmesg *****ing about i2c, looks okay.

Is anyone planning on enabling RDS reception to automatically save channel names? (or did I miss that in the preceding 9 pages?)

So maybe we really just need a delay after activating Bluetooth and I2C.
Does this work fine every time you try?

I'm planning to use the RDS eventually. It's exposed in the driver's sysfs interface, but honestly, I have no idea yet how to turn the values I receive from RDS into something readable.

If someone could take a look at how to use the RDS interface in /sys/bus/i2c/bcm2048-radio/ I'd be very happy.

From the specs for the chip: "The FM subsystem can operate independently of Bluetooth".

Question: is it possible NOT to enable Bluetooth for enabling FM radio ?

It would be the best not to have additional radio device enabled and be visible...
