Guest Andy From Ireland Posted June 2, 2011 Report Posted June 2, 2011 Hello there everyone - I am really loving this Vega it is so great for the money - its a great piece of kit. I have it rooted and also have the android marketplace working on it. What I would like to know is would the Advent Vega have hardware (chip or whatever) for receiving normal FM radio? - I have the Internet radio app but i am not always near a wifi signal so for the times I just want to listen to the local and national radio stations is there an FM radio apk I can download to it to get FM radio or would I just be wasting my time because there is no hardware for FM radio built into the Vega? - I tried HTCradio.apk but it didnt work it wouldnt even open up it just FC. Cheers for any advice and answers ....

Guest trevor432990 Posted June 2, 2011 Report Posted June 2, 2011 Better to check for USB FM Radio Dongles and see if one works not tried myself but chances are there's an Android version out there somewhere :D
Guest DaWhite Posted June 3, 2011 Report Posted June 3, 2011 Not built in, but try some of the free Market Apps, I was using the VEGA in the kitchen last weekend, had a recipie on the screen and 105.4 Rock FM pumping out some attached speakers. TuneIn Radio I think is the app I was using, it's free and I didn't see any ads.
Guest bojjob Posted June 4, 2011 Report Posted June 4, 2011 Im looking for much the same thing... but a way of getting DAB on it...
