FM radio stopped working - Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

has anyone else encountered this? I'm rooted with unlocked bootloader and XZDualRecovery.
the mods I've installed are olokos's Z2 soundmod 1.3 with headphones boost and flashed Viper4Android as a system app so I'm wondering if these are clashing with the radio, I've tinkered with every option on Viper4Android and none of them seem to have any affect on the radio

these app u mentioned are about sound so they should not do anything with radio
check if u flash anything else related to radio like basebandor something?
if u get crash for radio click send report and then click view system logs and take screen shots of error logs.
this can tell me more detail about ur problem and hopefully to solve it
:good:

I had an issue recently that the FM radio app won't play any sound. Later found out through Google that it was caused by the Google Now any screen 'Ok Google' setting. Once that was disabled, radio app worked properly. I hope that's what's happening in your case.

oh I found it haha had it disabled all along, then I re-enabled the app, did what you said and still the radio doesn't play any sound hmm would deleting the app data of Google Search then disabling it would've affected the radio permanently not to work?

Oh come on, it'd be much worse if you didn't have any downloads. That would then mean no one is interested.
I have it installed, and it indeed isn't as crashy as that other version. So you get a thanks from me.
How this app working? I pushed in system/app with adb but when i open the FM radio..it saying: FM radio is loading, please wait. And that`s all.
i really read a stable FM client.
bundle with CM7's very buggy. i suffer alot of FC, not response, worst case to reboot unit to get FM back.
Hope this ver can be improved.
thx.

hi,
try to clear the cash of the fm radio app.
No problem here, works perfectly.
I would hit thanks button, but there is none in Tapatalk.
Thanks, Still need some sort of antenna but at least I can get rid of the stock music player.
works fine
thanx-a-lot
Works great! Still need an antenna though. So i just cut the jack from an old pair of headphones to make a small antenna. 2 stations with out antenna, all with the jerry rigged antenna. Has anyone thought of opening this up to add a small loop for an antenna?

Thank you for this app. I tested it both on CM7 (nightly) and Froyo CEE (deodexed).
Until now, all works good.
I think about a strange behavior: if I plug out the headset during listening radio, the radio doesn't close but stays in status bar. I know that it can receive signal without wires...but the signal is 0, the sound output also. So where is the benefit?
Can you make a version that require always wired headset?
P.S. here is the radio. It is an install pack.
I have good reception with some stations even without any wire connected. So it's perfect app for me.
This is a gread App with imho a big drawback:
can't change volume, when screen is locked.
Any workaround for this issue (under official Froyo)?
It's not work when install another MOD. after CM7 CR1.
I reinstall CM7 RC1 again.
Thanks capnkillem, for make ANT from speakerphone jack.

[Q] Searching for GPS no matter what ROM I try...

Hello XDA community,
Unfortunately I seem to be having a problem with my GPS, I travel a lot so this has become a pain. I have tried flashing custom ROMS but nothing seems to change. I used @Adam's method http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2272066 to unlock the bootloader. If I could be guided to a solution I would appreciate it!
Maps won't lock on, with "Searching for GPS..." displaying on the bottom.
I ran Faster Fix with North America Region and nothing happened.
I also downloaded GPS Status and reset / downloaded my A-GPS Status
Try this:
"Go to Settings
Application manager
click all at top
go to Google services framework
clear data
Then
go to settings
Application manager
click all at top slide bar
go to maps
clear data
uninstall updates
Go to location services
turn off VZW Location service or disable it all together if you have the option
Power cycle phone
update maps from android market if your phone auto updates after you reboot that's ok, my note 2 auto updated maps and my gps worked fine
That's it your GPS should be working now"

+1 guys thank you!
no problem man no offense to you personally it's just something that needs to be done instead of tons of threads floating around about the same issue there should be a guide some where and also one thing that worked for me is driving around till u get a lock as my house never gives me a lock so

I've had the same issue. My searching for GPS lock sign would not even turn on with Jedi rom. And with cleanrom, the gps lock sign would come online but it would not lock. I tried the jellybeans rom, and finally it worked. One thing i've found different with the jellybeans rom against the others were that if you go to location settings, you can see the VZW location option, whereas for the other two it wasn't there. I don't have this option checked by the way.
Just giving you my 2 cents based on my experience. Maybe it could fix your problem if you install jellybeans rom and then follow the instructions suggested by the other guys here.
Have you tried Pimp my rom and replaced the GPS files with it?
Also you need to go in Settings, under accounts click your Google account, go to location access and make sure it is turned on for your phone. I have flashed roms before and done everything except check that and for some reason it should then on when you turn on your Location and Google search under GPS but it occasionally won't on the first lock on some roms.

Every time this happens to me I just boot into recovery and wipe internal storage and this fixes the problem. Beware, you lose your internal storage so backup any important files to an external sd card.

When you updated Play services what issue returned? The GPS not working?
If you don't want to use Hangouts you shouldn't have to.....

I managed to get my hangouts to work but that broke the GPS again...I'm using AOKP.
Google Voice also causes a crash, this is getting frustrating I only want vanilla!

It may just be an issue with Hangouts, however I would lean more toward a AOKP issue. You could download GPSTest to replace the to replace the AGPS data..... It may just be a AOSP bug with Hangouts, however this js the first I'm hearing of it.

Pandora app crashing seconds after it opens.

Hey all, I seem to be having an issue with the Pandora app. It is an app I use heavily, which it crashing is driving me bonkers.
Here's what happens. I open the app and it stays open until it starts to play/load music. The moment the artist information shows up the app closes itself. I had flashed the debloat script and rooted the phone. Then I disabled swap and of course, installed all my apps. Later I noticed the Pandora app crashing problem. I figured it was probably something the debloat script removed that I might have needed so I recovered to stock and only restored root. Low and behold, Pandora worked fine. I spent an hour or two listening and reading a book. I paused it so I could prepare for bed and when I hit play, it crashed again. Tried rebooting the phone, clearing the apps cache/data and reinstalling. Nothing seems to work. The app is set as a protected app in the settings. Also, I have the KIW-L24(USA) model.
tldr: Read the title
Hoping someone has some hints they could throw my way. It seems curious that the app would work for a few hours then only stop working after I paused and then hit play again. If anyone has any advice, please shoot it my way.
What software build do you have? This issue was previously reported, but it should be fixed by now. Also, what version is the Pandora app?

Build number: KIW-L24C567B140
Pandora: version 6.9.2 (I have Pandora One, just in the off chance that would matter?)
I just cleared the app cache, deleted the app data, uninstalled, then booted into twrp, cleared the dalvik cache and rebooted (as I stated in the first post, I had done this all before). It now seems to be working. If it begins to crash a third time, I'll update.
And it started crashing again. I may have found the culprit. Everything was kosher until I allowed notifications. When I did the app crashed, with near instant crashes there on. Shut off notifications for Pandora in settings and it works like a charm.
Edit: I can repeat this issue by enabling/disabling notifications. A bit annoying, bit at least the app works.

Microphone not working out of a call

Hello XDA!
I'm having troubles with my Honor 7 and the microphone is part of them...
It only works on a phone call (which is nice) but doesn't work when I'm taking a video, trying to talk to Google Assistant or thing like that.
Do you know how I can solve my problem?
Thank you for helping me!

What are you using for taking vids? Stock or a downloaded app? Google asst. has been giving issues lately. Try updating the asst. via Google play. If that doesn't help, try uninstalling and reinstalling it. If that fails, grab an older version from apkmirror.

Could be a hardware issue. I recommend you uninstalling the google app...clearing cache...reboot. reinstall Google App and reboot again.

Why not try a factory reset before reinstalling stock firmware. It's easier and in a sense achieves the same as a reinstall.

Question N2, Cannot use mobile banking after update, screen record detected

Hi,
I'm using Find N2 (CN rom).
Everything has been fine and I could access mobile banking apps normally until the latest ColorOS update (PGU110_11_A.35).
After this update, all of the banking apps show warning that it detects screen recording or remote control activity.
Some apps only warn and let me proceed, some close itself and not allow to proceed at all.
I have been trying to find the cause by disabling/removing built-in apps, try to locate any possible system apps that may relating to this then force close them,
Nothing work.
Anyone getting the same issue after the update? Anyone manage to fix it?
Please help.
Thanks
I have the same latest version with you and I don't have any issues with bank apps...
I also have the same problem any solution to this problem?
Maybe try disabling all the enhancement services under additional settings in the settings app?
