Sansa e250: No FM Tuner with Rockbox?
taliesin1077:
I have a 2GB Sansa e250 with an FM Tuner. I've verified it works when I boot the original firmware. However, when I boot into Rockbox, I have no option for FM Radio on the main menu, and in Debug Mode, the FM Tuner section says that no Hardware is detected.
Further information:
The very first time I booted Rockbox, I saw the FM Radio option on the main menu. I listened to radio. Thereafter, it has not worked.
I set the start screen to be FM Radio, and I get the FM Radio screen, but no radio comes through the headphones.
Yes, I have booted into the original firmware a couple times, and the radio HW still works, so I don't think it's a borked tuner or anything of that nature. More like the Rockbox firmware doesn't like my tuner.
Thoughts?
gevaerts:
On my c250 the radio sometimes is there, and sometimes it isn't. Maybe rebooting a few times makes it show up ?
taliesin1077:
I've booted 5-7 times today, and it's consistently not shown up. As I said...the first time I booted into Rockbox, it was there. It's not been there since then, and the hardware isn't detected, either.
I forgot to mention what version of Rockbox I am using...I apologize.

I don't have the opportunity to install another build of Rockbox until tonight, but I was curious if anyone else has experienced this problem, and perhaps has a solution of some sort?

THank you for posting this. I was trying to scan through the bug reports, but couldn't find anything. I was primarily searching on FM Tuner, etc.
So this is a current bug, and no one knows why it's doing this. Too bad, because aside from that, Rockbox is the only firmware I use on my Sansa. Having to boot into the original FW is just annoying when I want to listen to Bob and Tom while I work out in the morning.
