1146654 - [FMRadio] The Radio Dial automatically returns to the most recently used frequency setting when panning the dial while the app loads

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Firefox OS Graveyard :: Gaia::FMRadio, defect)

Description:
 When loading the Radio app, the user is able to scroll the radio dial while the app initializes. After the app fully initializes it ignores this user input and sets the dial to the most previous setting from when the app was closed. If it is the first launch it sets it to the far left of the dial (87.5). Users will most likely not wait until the app is fully initialized to start scanning to their favorite frequencies and then their effort is wasted which creates poor UX. 


Repro Steps:
1) Update a Flame to 20150323010204
2) Launch Radio App
3) While app is loading, scroll the radio dial to the right

Actual:
When the Radio app is done loading, it ignores the current frequency and returns to 87.5

Expected:
The dial will remain at the point where the user has panned it to
-or- 
The user will not be able to scroll the dial until the app is fully loaded

NI on component owner for nomination decision and assignment.

I don't think this is necessarily a blocker, but this does sound quite annoying if the user wants to quickly set the station. 

Although this isn't a regression, I think it's worth it to nominate as blocker. Hema, what do you think?

[No-Jun Park [:njpark]]

actually, I forgot to ni? Hema above.

[Tracking Requested - why for this release]:

Agreed that this is not a pleasant experience for the user. It would be nice if app does not ignore the scrolled in channel. 

Marking this a polish priority issue. 

Thanks
