Radio frequencies are very strictly monitored and regulated. With more powerful transmitters the rx unit can be mirrored within 100m diameter circle or similar and interfering reserved frequencies might get you in jail as WCS......

so please study a bit before you play with things you don't know. It is ok for me that you tweak those but I want to warn you because there can be drastic consiquences doing it.
Has anybody called you a DICK today?

Can I be the first?

perhaps there are better virtual keyboards, better localization options etc

But are you really sure there aren't any other limitations like the default transmission power and frequency range?

Can anyone test if plugging n900 to car charger while playing through FM transmitter, reduces power and quality ?
I can see sligh mention of it in first post...

Also does having a phonecall reduce FM transmitter power when resuming...

Yes the charger will not reduce the quality like the original FMTXD, this one boost up the power to 120 constantly when FM Transmitter is enable.

One important thing is FM Transmitter still not working with phone call. If you get a call it will be silent out the signal. But after you hang up it will be back to normal. I've tested it last night in my car.

Plug in the charger will only improve the quality.

Sorry if this is out of context of this topic but I would like to know how to get the three applets below the Simple Brighntness applet.

I know the middle one is a bluetooth on/off switch. The one next to it on the right is the Wifi switch. But what is the one on the left? What does it do?

How do I put these three in my status area?

Thanks...

P.S. : The pic is from the first post of this thread so can the thread owner show me the steps involved?

Well I did and I also have a Warning!! sticker at the end of the post So my argument is perfectly valid.

If you obeying the law of the FCC then you should not be using FM-Transmitter at all. This is people rights, if they want to do anything to their device in their home without hurting anyone nor interfairing with any one then it is purely up to them to make their justify and decision. FM-Transmitter wasn't even legal in some European countries, but yet!!! FM-Faker is available for that reason, I don't see you reporting to FCC for FM-Faker. Nor reporting it to the authority in those European countries.

Again, this is absolutely the user choice! If you don't want to do it then it's you choice. N900 is a geeks device and hackering it is what it does best this is why people bought the N900 at the first place OPENSOURCE DEVICE!!

That is called Advanced Interface Switcher, in the app manager type "Advanced" and then it will show up.

Does the FM transmitter handle RDS output also ? Since pr1.2 its showing "NOKIA" only... can it be modified to so it would show artis/song name again as in pr1.1 ?

PS. I have set my own shoutcast radio for listening in a car, with different bitrates 56kAAC for EDGE, 96k MP3 for 3G and 192k MP3 for Wifi

Shoutcast + N900 + Unlimited Dataplan + FM Transmitter = Best car audio entertainment

PPS. No need to change my GTO's original stereo Win!

Haven't tried that sorry, you can test it out and let me know I'm uploading a video of my working Unlocked FM transmitter now. May later I'll make a video on how to hack it

I followed the instructions in the first post and I still get the error message the second time I do anything with the FM transmitter. Is it working properly for everyone else?
