My FM-transmitter have always worked perfect. But it seems to be broken now. I am sure it's on the right channel. I have used fm-boost and fmtx-faker but it still doesn't work. I even reflashed my device, but it still doesn't work.

Is there anything I can do, before I can be sure it's definitely broken?

*Bump*

When I hold my N900 next to the radio-antenna I hear very quiet sound. This means that the FM-transmitter isn't really broken, but sends really low power. I haven't flashed my eMMC. Could it be helpful to do it?

I just discovered that my transmitter also does not work any more. I have used it before and it worked great but now nothing not even a hiss. Could it be because I installed cssu lately for the portrait mode. Maybe it patched something in the settings??

If not, go back into alsamixer -c0 and see that FMTX Fun is ON and the next item after FMTX Fun, called Line DAC, is not muted. Try to increase the level of Line DAC to 100 and see if that helps

Again, make sure you are playing some music while doing this all the time.

I've noticed that people have been having problems with their Nokia N900 not having radio after the PR 1.3 update.
I've managed to get my radio turned back on. Here's how. Please follow the instructions on the following MyNokiaBlog website except
flash the necessary .bin files and Z-Image files at the following associated sites:

http://mynokiablog.com/2010/06/02/ho...-v10-2010-19-1

Cut and paste into your browser the addresses from where to get the files that will re-enable your N900's built-in radio.

RX-51_2009SE_21.2011.38-1.002_PR_COMBINED_002_ARM.bin from http://www.mrcrab.net/Nokia-Product-...ctCode=0580952


RX-51_2009SE_10.2010.13-2.VANILLA_PR_EMMC_MR0_ARM.bin from http://skeiron.org/tablets-dev/nokia...MC_MR0_ARM.bin


Download an image to make your N900 faster at 900 mHz -it defaults at 600 mHz. The operative command line is:

flasher-3.5.exe -k zImage-900mhz -f -R

zImage-900mhz from https://dl.boxcloud.com/bc/2/85c6e52...22cf97928fd9f/


Install the fmradio.install app from Maemo's Repository after you have flashed the N900 with everything else.

fmradio.install from http://repository.maemo.org/extras-d...mradio.install
