root yes.
wget is not installed by default.
You can get it by running 'apt-get install wget' (as root)

Note, needs bash which you can get byCode:apt-get install bash

hi, i have had success using echo in the terminal.
following the instructions from daveqb for a desktop shortcut for it has not worked...i have a desktop shortcut, however it is not making any changes.
I may have done something wrong, wanted to let you know though just in case!

nice one!
it seems that frequency setting is disabled on my phone
I get:
"fmtx_client: ERROR: Unable to set frequency (Frequency is not currently allowed)"
or am I doing something wrong?

I initially thought the same regarding the RDS. However, the PS field is only 8 characters and very few receivers support the RT field (64 characters).
It may be possible to do some clever scrolling in the 8 character PS field, but the RDS data rate is very slow (1187.5 bps).

Messed around with the scripts a little and came up with some stuff that doesn't require any outside apps etc to work.
Edit a file called /opt/bin/boostfm.sh
Now add the following to /etc/sudoers
Now create a file called BoostFM.desktop in /usr/share/applications/hildon which contains
This will open up an xterm, run the script and then close the xterm. It checks to see if the transmitter is on and will turn it off if it is. I used a standard system icon for the icon in the desktop file. All you need to now is put it as a shortcut on your desktop and its one tap on and off.
Edit a file called /opt/bin/boostfm.sh
Code:
!/bin/sh
STATE=`fmtx_client | grep state | cut -d '=' -f2`
if [ "disabled" = ${STATE} ]
then
echo "Turning on FM transmitter"
fmtx_client -p1
else
echo "Turning off FM transmitter"
fmtx_client -p0
fi
/bin/echo 118 > /sys/class/i2c-adapter/i2c-2/2-0063/power_level
exit 0
Code:
user ALL = NOPASSWD: /opt/bin/boostfm.sh
Code:
[Desktop Entry] Version=0.1 Type=Application Name=BoostFM Exec=osso-xterm 'sudo /opt/bin/boostfm.sh' Icon=general_fm_transmitter X-Windows-Icon= X-HildonDesk-ShowInToolbar=false X-Osso-Type=application/x-executable

Sorry if this is asked before, I did some searching, but could not find it. Seems there are some experts on this thread..
Is there a way to use bluetooth for my Parrot carkit and use the FM tramsmitter as well? I find the N900 'seas' the Parrot as 'an earphone' and I get the music through bluetooth.. The volume is very low and I can't adjust it on Parrot or caraudio or N900! So I would like having a carkit and fm tfransmitter for my music. Thx!

Also by roo do you mean root?
I'm a complete novice by the way, sorry if this is all a bit obvious
