i love to vote for it, but maemo.org is driving me crazy....

focus camera option is a nice addition !

@slender: thanks for the review. New version has showing banners at "Start Radio" pressing. About the seek, I have already written that if signal isn't enought there is no way for the app to understand a station is placed in the current frequency and fine tuning is needed.
I dislike the idea of gestures or bar to tune the radio, it doesn't fit in my idea of a digital radio, I prefear to keep it plain and simple: tap on saved stations, click on focus button or headset button to change station.
"Camera button switch to next station" should explain better the button usage now.
Those static frequencies are the quickaccess buttons so required by some users, long tap to edit their freq, short one to switch to shown freq.
Manual freq, switching set and activating speakers are not so clicked like the others buttons, that's why I have not included those in main UI.
Layouts change be because it's their job to adapt to widgets resize. I can hard code the sizes, but if the user picks a really big font, what would happen?
Dynamic preview is not possible because dialog prevents the window behind to refresh itself.
Thanks for the link, I had watched it but subclassing widgets and dialogs in QT is faster than linking against another library in my opinion. The widgets like the checkbox are really nice instead.
I'm adding a guide window again, hoping people read it before asking questions in this topic :P

@Mr.Rent: long tap on list > clear. Or just delete the ones you don't need.
Riding and pressing camera button? What (if using stock nokia headset) about just pressing the headset button to switch to next station? It will be included in next version.

@bitrocky: I have no idea what to tell you, there is no signal emitted when sms tone is done to autorestart radio. To avoid having to manually tap on stop and than start, I can enable restart of radio with headset button press (putting a setting option to choose which behavior the button has).

thx for the answer, pressing the headset button will be great!!!


i will buy a new nokia headset, i had two both broken,..and I've used them wisely :/

bye

In next version (0.4.9) QRadio auto restarts itself after 10 seconds a sound notification is played, with email for sure will work.

Started without headphones and after starting radio from menu it gave warning. OK.

I tried auto scan from menu
-Starts doing something but no visual feedback. How long I have to wait, is it doing anything, I can hear that it´s changing channels.
->Some visual feedback to user how scanning is going on, frequencies counting and some hint when it stops and adds station.

While it scanned screen blanked(normal) and after awhile it stopped and complete silence. Now I got message popup loop where is says bluetooth on. Stopped radio and started it and now it works. Weird loop.

This is not depending on QRadio but QtMobility bug and it's one of the reason I have implemented "Start" and "Stop" Radio.

Upvoted - cool app. Don't use it often but very useful when I do.

And after that "bluetooth on" loop my mic went mute so I restarted phone :|

@Gionni
I have another tiny, yet useful request (as soon as stereo playback is enabled): Can you implement a "STEREO" or just a little "∞" indicator when a stereo reception is gained? It might be useful for some people (not me though), the more informative on-screen - the better.
*Older Nokia phones show such info...

QRadio 0.4.10 version is in Extras-Testing and needs 5more votes to be promoted.
