Re: Unlocked FM-Transmitter frequency 76.0Mhz->107.9Mhz (Limitation Fixed)
 

I got that at the start too. But This is how I fixed it.

Uninstall FMTX-Faker
Uninstall FM Widget

reboot

Download the FMTXD from my first post and delete the old on in the /usr/sbin/

Paste the fmtxd in there now, reboot

Now when you click on it, you'll get "Unable to use fm transmitter"

Xterminal:
root
chmod +x /usr/sbin/fmtxd
reboot

Enable FM-Transmitter
Xterminal:
root
killall fmtxd
fmtxd -d

killall ftmxd

install FMTX Faker

Xterminal:
fmtxd -d
reboot

Once you're restarted you'll see 0....9

worked!

great.


should i be able to reinstall the widget or the rds notifier? or will those create an issue?

Re: Unlocked FM-Transmitter frequency 76.0Mhz->107.9Mhz (Limitation Fixed)
 

Is the region firmware dependent because i changed the region from 2 to 4 but still i get the unable to use FM when i try disabling the transmitter at a lower frequency. The firmware i use is UK region.

You have to follow the step carefully. Region isn't the problem. Region 2 will only have 87500Hz frequency as minimum. But region 4 will enable the use of all available frequencies.

I'm using global firmware but it shouldn't be the problem.

@ceroberts
yes once it worked then installing anything you like :)
Freedom that is.

Thanks to MAXXIMUSCOOL it works!

region changed from 2 to 4 thru leafpad and xterm.
works verywell.

Re: Unlocked FM-Transmitter frequency 76.0Mhz->107.9Mhz (Limitation Fixed)
 

if you changed the region before the steps described in #151 you might need to do it again afterwards

Re: Unlocked FM-Transmitter frequency 76.0Mhz->107.9Mhz (Limitation Fixed)
 

I changed it from 2 to 4, but after reboot it goes back to 2. I reopen region before reboot to make sure I really changed the number.

Any ideas?

Re: Unlocked FM-Transmitter frequency 76.0Mhz->107.9Mhz (Limitation Fixed)
 

Mine changes to 2 as well on reboot

does it "need" to be 4?

If so, looks like a fcrontab job is in order.

Re: Unlocked FM-Transmitter frequency 76.0Mhz->107.9Mhz (Limitation Fixed)
 

crap, indeed it gets reset :(

Re: Unlocked FM-Transmitter frequency 76.0Mhz->107.9Mhz (Limitation Fixed)
 

i tried making it read only but that didn't help, but somehow it now works even with region 2 (can't turn off while the frequency is out of the standard range though)
