Overview:
Spirit FM Radio is a real, tuned, “over the air” FM radio app. It is NOT a streaming app which requires expensive data plans and drains your battery.
PLEASE NOTE: I’m taking a MUCH needed break from Spirit and am currently working on Spirit2. It will be a free upgrade for anyone who requests it: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1059296&page=684
Briefly: I’m sorry but I’m not going to be able to provide the high level of support I’ve been providing and have been struggling to maintain. At least not for the next month or so, Answers to most questions can be found in the XDA thread linked above.

If you’re an average phone user, & don’t know what Android “rooting” is, Spirit will likely not offer you much more than your stock FM app. If your phone does not have a stock FM app, it is unlikely that Spirit will work on it.
Spirit is mostly for Android enthusiasts who “root” & “ROM” their phones. But it also works on many stock, “store bought” phones.
Spirit includes:
- Digital audio features on a few devices: supported ONLY on: ROOTED (non-stock !) International Galaxy S/S2/S3/Note/Note2/Player, ROOTED (non-stock !) HTC One/OneXL/OneS/Evo 4G LTE/Xperia T and most stock Sony 2012-2013 devices.
Digital audio features are no longer described here because WAY too many people think they will work on stock, un-rooted phones.
- 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: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=31983089
I understand the price may seem high, but this is a niche app with 9,000 hours of work required over 2.7 years. How many other “Real FM Radio” apps are on Google Play ? Almost none.
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”: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=23568502&postcount=2523
I’m one developer and Spirit is my only app and income. I’m trying to do a job Google said they couldn’t for lack of developer resources.
Your support for Spirit is appreciated.
