Hello everyone, I have a problem that surely you have seen them all.
The FM radio of our Galaxy's has no equalizer
and you can adjust the frequency
I would like this thread can be used to solve and improve the sound quality of FM radio
perhaps by increasing the low frequencies that are missing.
Have you made any changes?
I installed but does not work with DSP 2.2 Froyo Journal
I installed Audio boster and works well on everything except the fm radio
Any solution?
Thanks in advance
I was not aware that w have an FM radio... Interesting
The vibrant is NOT equipped with a FM radio. You should look to the I9000 forums for answers regarding this.

There is no FM radio in the Vibrant. You need to post in the Galaxy S thread because you do not have the same phone as us.
The vibrant does have an fm radio, but not all carriers have it enabled. I use the radio on my vibrant all the time

How do you enable this feature on the vibrant?

Are you using the Vibrant for the Bell Canada carrier? This is actually the section for T-mobile's T959 Vibrant and the Bell Canada version is serviced by the I9000 forum.

Nothing in this thread, or in the listing in the xda app, says this is a T mobile thread. I'm not saying it isn't, but it's not listed anywhere in the app forum titles. This is probably a good time to ask this though. How many different vibrants does Samsung make then? It never occurred to me to check.

This is for the t959. Not the i9000m.

Is there a specific reason all custom roms are not for GT sprint users?. Thanks!!!

If your asking why you cant flash a rom like overcome or something gsm
Each carrier has thier own crap on the tab plus there is a differance between types. Sprint is for instance cdma, while att is gsm. You can not flash a gsm rom on cdma. Breaks your tab.

Thanks for the info!! Is there a reason the DEVS only develop for gsm?
Bad news - most devs have gsm tabs. Personally I think this was a conspiracy that goes all the way to oboma. Good news - the one overclock and voodoo kernal we have is actually sweet as shiatzu. It is for vzn and sprint. Also the roms for vzn are very sound. Not sure about sprint there.

Hi guys
Just want to know which radio are you guys using. I'm using KD1. Anyone done any testing to see whether this is the best for Australia or a previous version such as kb3.
I know for my x10 there are regional updates for basebands. Is this the case for the nexus S
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
I too would like to know more info about radios. I'm currently on kb3 and it seems sufficient. I get GPS lock in 10 seconds so reasonably happy.
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
Tested with Kb3 and Kd1, both same, not much difference as Vodafone network is still upgrade in progress. I guess, KD1 is mre effective for UK
I'm on optus and just want to check is it my plan / location

Stock rom doesn't show the H sign. Only custom roms do that. Maybe it's a carrier issue?
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
I think mostly in AUstralia, we get less "H", I not sure why, gotta ask them
Oh I'm using superaosp.. best rom... so that's not because of stock rom that I don't see h
Funny when I first got the planing on now I see h very often
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
I'm also with vodafail. Using speedtest, I get better download with the new radio KD1 and upload speed was relatively the same in comparison with KB3
Why in technical specs of Galaxy S4 fm radio is not onboard? In future i'll hope to see it
Good question. I did not see anything mentioned of an FM receiver. It would be weird if they included stuff like an RF blaster, temperature gages, and more but not the ability to receive FM frequencies. If I find any info to confirm or deny this, I will share it on this thread for you
No

May be Its the snapdragon soc which is missing radio.

3's showing a fm radio
My first reaction was WHAT! NO FM Radio ...!
But to be honest I have never ever listen to FM Radio on my S2.
I use Internet Radio, so no big loss for me if it turns out that S4 dosn't have one

They copied it from apple, no FM radio..its not a good sign, for me it's one of the basic feature that any smartphone should have inbuilt. .external Internet radio app is a different issue all together!

Actually there is some situations where FM Radio could be handy and even a life saver ... situations like war, terror and other catastrophes like no connection to The Internet

I only used it once to listen to a soccer match, but for me, it's an essential
for those reasons too, it may come in handy someday...

I like my GS3 FM. Quality is quite good. US versions don't have them, though. I don't know of any US carrier phone with one.

My HTC Desire HD has one but you have to have headphones plugged in, but that might be the way they all work.

FM Radio is a secret and TBD, LOL.
We still don't know the audio chip and many others yet.

what is FM Radio functioning??? Is this the radio sprint offers? Or is it a FM transmitter inside the phone???
where is there a FM radio?
NextRadio app can pick up FM using headset cable as antenna. Built right in.

I have been reading in other threads that all GS5s have the FM 'on the chip'...
It is mechanically disabled (shorted on circuit board) on every variant EXCEPT SPRINT.

This is something I missed having on the S4. Didn't make sense to leave it off. Glad it is back. They must of had some complaints maybe?

Oh you mean that app I uninstalled immediately having no idea what it did? Ha. reinstalled. Great news! Thanks for this thread. :highfive:
Wow, that's.....interesting! Wonder why Sprint wouldn't tell us the phone can pickup FM? Or for that matter why would the other carriers remove that function? Seems odd...

Just downloaded NextRadio app from the play store. Turned OFF my wifi and data and the app worked with no issues. Thought it was gonna be some internet based app but it work solely on the the FM transmitter. SWEET!!!!

Whoa! Is this absolutely certain?
Why would other carriers remove this?
Maybe it interferes with their data reception?
This requires further investigation.
I do like that we're regaining full use of the Galaxy S5, despite attempts from the carriers to opress us, at least with Sprint.

I know this is is a few months old but I cannot get my rooted 900P's FM receiver to work.
I emailed next radio and the guy said there have been some problems with rooted GS5's being able to access the reciever.
Any one have any input/solutions?

Stock rom ? did you install any headset volume mods ?
I was looking through the CSC codes and ETC codes and noticed that there is a line on the SPR(sprint) xml that has the Samsung FM app blocked, I downloaded the international S5 fm radio apk and installed it but to no avail.

Stock rom, "The_Governaa_v0.2" kernel, and "s5 volume boost''
Sweeeeeeet! Moar 1.1, installed NextRadio and voila, FM Radio for those times when signal in gym is ish and I am stuck not being able to listen to anything decent!
Well I just did the ne5 firmware update today and re-rooted and now FM antenna is working perfect
I know this sounds lame and maybe off the topic but anyway to use AM radio frequencies on the gs5? I like to listen to midday baseball at work. Thanks
