[Announce] Friendly FM
Hello and welcome to Friendly FM
What is it? Friendly FM is a widget that allows to switch the FM transmitter of the N900 on or off. It can also be used to quickly change the current frequency of the transmitter and to switch the Bluetooth radio. (Bluetooth is switched by clicking on the Bluetooth icon.) How does it differ from other widgets with the same functionality? Friendly FM uses the background graphics for the media player widget from the current theme for itself. Thus not locking like an 'alien' widget on the desktop but rather being friendly and looking like a native widget. Friendly FM is no replacement for programs like FM Radio. Huh? Show me a screenshot! http://eris23.de/friendlyfm_screenshot.png That's cool, where can I get it? From extras-devel or Maemo package interface. I don't like the icons. Can I change them? Friendly FM loads its icons from Code:
/usr/share/icons/hicolor/32x32/apps (ffm_inc.png ffm_dec.png) What about support for FM Boost? I am not using FM Boost myself but instead use a patched version of fmtxd which can be found here. This patched version allows a wider range of frequencies and automatically boosts the power to 120. I will anyway see if I can integrate FM Boost into FFM. That's all? I want more features! If my rare spare time allows it I will work on
You suck! Yeah, I know. ;) |

Well - I love the look. I love the fact that the buttons are easy to press. I like that bluetooth is integrated. Only one downside. The fm transmitter doesnt turn on when I hit the "power" button. All other buttons seem to work fine.
Syslog reveals Code:

Re: [Announce] Friendly FM
The design of this widget is brilliant. All applications and widgets need to do this.
You sir, are my hero of the day. Kudos on using the Faenza icons as well. They are zee bezt. |
Re: [Announce] Friendly FM
This work without the fm app installed?
I mean, if works as fm radio or just transmitter? Grettings. |
Re: [Announce] Friendly FM
if you integrate the fm-boost script, like simple-fmtx-widget did, then you will get a happy user ;-)

Re: [Announce] Friendly FM
It would seem the BT toggle isn't working for me.
I second, integrating the power adjustment would be a good idea as well. |
Re: [Announce] Friendly FM
I will definitely use this as soon as it has the power boost integrated! Good work.
Also, out of interest, which are the themes on the top row left hand side, and bottom row middle? |
Re: [Announce] Friendly FM
Works and looks great. Frequency buttons are much more sensitive then FM RDS Notify- very good. Beside boost script integration, what about presets, to quickly jump between two stored frequencies?
