Will it be possible to use FM Radio without activate the bluetooth? If you need some ideas, advices (i'm not a developper) I'll be happy to help you.

Very much agreed. Thanks pycage for your work in bringing us closer to this point.

Can someone make a QT version of FM Radio? Python version is terrible, it drained a lot of CPU cycle and RAM. Very unstable and sometimes crashed like no tomorrow.
Yes i totally agree... the fm radio has been good in the past but I think its time for a better one, a new one. The current one is very buggy

No, as it's the same piece of hardware.

Looking forward to that

I was wondering if configuring the FM receiver through the sysfs interface indeed works. It seems that when I'm trying to tune the frequency by writing to the /sys/class/i2c-adapter/i2c-3/3-0022/fm_frequency file, the file was successfully modified but the receiver is not correctly tuned to the desired frequency.

Could you give me some hint?

Bash version of E.F.F. (look at my signature) seems it works and tunes fine the reciever.
