Spirit FM Unlocked v2013_07_26
Requirements: 2.1 and up
Overview: Spirit FM Radio Unlocked is a real, tuned, "over the air" FM radio app. It's NOT a streaming app requiring expensive, battery consuming data plans.
No FM Support: US/LTE Galaxy S/S2/S3/Note/Note2 and many others are not capable of FM. US carriers are not allowing FM unless they can "monetize" it: xda-developers - View Single Post - [APP] Spirit FM
Satisfaction guaranteed or full refund. Cancel any time on request. Try as long as you need. The 15 minute rule does not apply. I have cancelled orders over a year old, but that's mostly for Light to Unlocked upgrades for the price difference.
Spirit is mostly for Android enthusiasts who "root" & "ROM" their phones. But it also works on many stock, "store bought" phones, with or without a stock FM app.
On supported devices, Spirit is the only FM app supporting all these digital audio features:
- A2DP Bluetooth headset support.
- CD quality stereo recording.
- Internal Waveform and FFT frequency visualization with accurate 5 dB times 1 octave grid, from 43 Hz to 22 KHz.
- External visualizers, equalizers and effects.
Digital supported on: rooted International Galaxy S/S2/S3/Note/Note2/Player, rooted HTC One/OneXL/OneS/Evo 4G LTE/Xperia T and most stock Sony 2012-2013 devices.
Spirit includes:
- Personal & Fast tech support for all devices you own from me, the developer, proprietor and only "employee".
For problems, use Menu-> Test-> Email-> Logs & after 20 seconds press Send.
- Digital audio features on supported devices (see above): Bluetooth, Record, Visualization, Equalizer & Effects.
- RDS data display in App, Lock-screen & Notification window. RT, PS, PTY, PI & AF RadioText RT, Program Service PS, Program Type PTY, Program ID PI & Alternate Frequency AF.
- Lock-screen & Wired Headset Media Button support for mute, preset, seek, volume & record.
- Many settings: Audio, UI, AF, Digital & Debug categories.
- Unlimited Presets & Preset Lists.
FAQ / Frequently Asked Questions: [APP] Spirit FM - Page 447 - xda-developers
I understand the price may seem high, but this is a niche app with a high tech support burden. The gracious support of customers keep Spirit alive and improving.
How many other "Real FM Radio" apps are on Google Play ? Two: 1 for Galaxy S only and one repackaged Motorola app.
Why ? Because Android FM is extremely difficult. Google doesn't support FM radio and carriers suppress it. Intensive reverse engineering is required. In the over 2 years since Spirit was first created, nobody else has been "crazy" enough to attempt to compete in this niche.
Spirit is not a throwaway game app you play for a few days. How many hours will you spend listening to FM radio in the next several years ?
How much can you save on data plans by listening to free, over the air radio versus streaming ?
If you care about app quality, note CNet article "We're not paying enough for apps": xda-developers - View Single Post - [APP] Spirit FM
Spirit is not a one time purchase. It's ongoing technical assistance, fixes, new device support & features.
I'm one developer and Spirit FM Radio is my only app and income. I'm trying to do a job Google said they couldn't for lack of developer resources.
I personally answer every email or post on my XDA thread, usually within 12-24 hours, 7 days a week.
Your support will help keep Spirit FM Radio alive and improving.
