Guest andorko Posted January 13, 2011 Report Posted January 13, 2011 Before trying to make anything too pretty, I think it would be a good idea to make (and circulate) a little test app (type in a the frequency of a known local RDS station?) to display some RDS data, and prove that the 09 is widespread to universal. I do take on board that you are tweaking things at kernel level, but it would be good to know (early) whether or not 09s were found in the different geographical markets, with the 5mp camera, only with TFT screens or whatever ... Its no great shakes to ask people to do a nandroid, test something exciting, and restore their previous environment ... You have to replace the kernel to test it, so i can't make a "little test app".
Guest Eszed Posted January 13, 2011 Report Posted January 13, 2011 Wow! That's awesome news, Andorko. You're a rockstar. [the] ZTE guys were tricky and they hide an si4709 chip behind an si4708 driver Anyone have any idea why they'd do this, though? It doesn't seem to make sense to me. You have to replace the kernel to test it, so i can't make a "little test app". I'd be up for carrying out any testing you, or anyone, eventually wants to do.
Guest fonix232 Posted January 13, 2011 Report Posted January 13, 2011 You have to replace the kernel to test it, so i can't make a "little test app". Well, you can still write some little stuff what reads the logs, looks for the specified entries of the RDS stuff, and then tells the user if it has the capability or not :D Of course supplied with your own kernel!

Ok. So i didn't sleep this night and i made an RDS test version with a test 2.2 kernel. Details are in the post #1. Good night for me !!! ;)

Good night for me !!! ;) this is really taking shape, gonna try 0.5 later, getting late now, thanks andorko LoA

Good night for me !!! ;) Thank you very much :) But the kernel does not work with JJ RLS7 :S Instant bootcrash, even before adbd started :S
Guest andorko Posted January 14, 2011 Report Posted January 14, 2011 Thank you very much ;) But the kernel does not work with JJ RLS7 :S Instant bootcrash, even before adbd started :S I have an FLB froyo r6 I have mobile internet so i can't upload a whole rom. So please try with that rom
Guest catb Posted January 14, 2011 Report Posted January 14, 2011 Thanks for the app, really cool, started using it (from japanese jelly rom). I will update the rom once the RDS fix is in it Thanks again
Guest wishmasterf Posted January 14, 2011 Report Posted January 14, 2011 hallo, great work! i tested the rds implementation. It works, but not on every Radio station, but on some it works. some radio staions do have 2 lines like "*Live*" "*Radio*", but the secon line i get is FE *FE*. it should after the second line chagen back to the first, bt i stops. Anything i could test?

Guest wishmasterf Posted January 15, 2011 Report Posted January 15, 2011 Great. So you have RDS in your phone. Could you tell us what kind of phone do you have? i use zde blade with that rom: http://android.modaco.com/content/zte-blad...zte-blade-beta/ the app is very slow yet ( before rds it was faster ... much faster...). The kernel seems to be stable.
Guest reallordx Posted January 15, 2011 Report Posted January 15, 2011 (edited) Kinda works for me. As u said its really slow. RDS info is shown on supporting stations. Text is corrupted, when station uses scrolling text. (See screenshots). Station with static text (e.g. station name) works ok. *Used: ClockworkMod 2.0.1.8 (nandroid first) Paul's Modaco 2.2 R7 Your Kernel Your 0.5RDS FM Radio I have an uk oled blade.

Guest reallordx Posted January 15, 2011 Report Posted January 15, 2011 (edited) sorry offtopic: what do you use to create that screenshots? An app called "ShootMe", needs root. Install, start, allow su, switch to screen u want to take a screenshot from, shake phone. And plz don't full quote ;) *ahh... better without the screenshots* Also, screenshots will come out bottom up, due to the display being bottom up in the blade. I just turned the screens by 180° in paint. (and resized them a bit). Edited January 15, 2011 by reallordx

Thanks for your reply. v0.5rdstest is not a working rds radio. This is just a test program to find out in which versions of the ZTE Blade has the RDS chip. I have an UK oled SF too, so in this version there is an fm chip with RDS. Edited January 15, 2011 by andorko

Guest fonix232 Posted January 15, 2011 Report Posted January 15, 2011 Hungarian Blade, second shipment (fixed screen but still 256MB RAM) with the Hungarian patch applied, RDS works!
Guest wishmasterf Posted January 15, 2011 Report Posted January 15, 2011 -i plan but it is a lot of work -i still don't know how to do the loudspeaker feature Thats great! Loudspeaker would be nice, but i think RDS is great ;-)
Guest _amano Posted January 16, 2011 Report Posted January 16, 2011 (edited) Until now the *UK OLED and *Hungarian (TFT) Blades seem to be the only ones tested. What are the exact kernel changes? Maybe those could be added to https://github.com/ZTE-BLADE/ZTE-BLADE-2.6.32/commits/master and be added to all the custom kernel builds as well? What shall happen? A radio that stops to work?

Guest petryk1 Posted January 16, 2011 Report Posted January 16, 2011 Hello, in Slovakia RDS is working good. Thank you very much, Andorko. ;)

I just modified the fm radio driver. It's a very very ugly (you don't want to see it) hack to get RDS Program Service Name, and i set the RDS bit to enable. Also modified the radio app to get the RDS info from the driver. To make it useable the driver, the framework and the fm app have to be rewritten. Also TMC data comes on the RDS channel so maybe it could be used with the navigation applications.
Guest Lew247 Posted January 16, 2011 Report Posted January 16, 2011 That would be one great system if all that could be worked into a rom
Guest andorko Posted January 17, 2011 Report Posted January 17, 2011 (edited) Technical question (if somebody knows the answer): How could i find out (or set????) which IRQ is used by the FM chip? Edited January 17, 2011 by andorko
