Where is the FM radio in the X5? . In the description of the phone it is listed. Unfortunately I can not find anywhere this application.
Hardware supports fm radio, but there is no software to use it... Its a disinfomation...
porting FM?
I tried to upload an FM radio with HTC and Motorola, but unfortunately when I start the program is stopped. Maybe there is someone who will try to match any of the available online programs to support FM radio?
i hope someone can do it for us.after all the hardware support it.
the unlucky news is that huawei said they will not do it,so we must rely on the other people,like some people here.
FM files
The system files, I found the files to the FM radio, it seems that only lacks a program that would be handled.
Are someone working on getting the FM radio to work? I would really appreciate if someone made it possible!
Registering ALOT of interest in a FM radio
Tried few fm radio apps on cm6.1 alpha4, few from miui rom and one called spirit fm radio. Neither does work. Spirit fm puts out errors on logcat. Miui one dont put out so many errors, but it says that audio is routed to hdmi and mute is on.
But maybe there is hope
fm
I installed it FMRadio. Although radio is not working but the program is not interrupted (FC). When you receive the "FM working ...." select button "back". the menu works. Radio comes with ROM DroidX. This is the only program FMRadio that I managed to install. It is worth to work on it.

My dreams are coming true, i hope the community gets behind this!
I have not had proper FM for years.
I've installed the FMRadio.apk but when I launch it, it sits on "FM Radio is being launched, please wait..."
If i go 'Back' i can access the menu, select a frequency and even set a preset, but it doesn't play.
According to Huawei Norway the x5 does not have the hardware to support fm radio.
The phone seems to have FM radio (the kernel initializes the chip and sets audio routes for fm), but those apps from Moto/HTC etc phones are designed for either for TI or Broadcom chips so won't work. There's also the possibility that the chip antenna isn't connected to the headphone jack so even if everything else is there you won't be able to get reception.
I did a bit of searching and there is a Qualcomm FM radio app.. might be an idea for someone to build this and see what it can do (probably it won't work, but you never know).
https://www.codeaurora.org/gitweb/quic/la/?p=platform/packages/apps/FM.git;a=tree
chould some work it out? i wilk wait!
Is anyone still still looking into this?
This is the one feature that the x5 is missing that would make it a killer phone for the price point.
No news with Radio?

Does anyone know if there is a FM radio in built or know some way to get on on the Dopod 838 PRO?
Thanks!
Kellogs cornflakes has them sometimes "inside" the box for free with certain promotions.
In all honestly buddy, u gotta read....
Don't know of an add-on fm tuner you can install, but if you have data services you can access www.thestreamcenter.com and you will find a link to just about every FM station in every market of the grand old USA.
I did read, for 30 mins.....just a simple yes or now would be really helpful
I read that the jasjam does have a radio......please any help is greatly appreciated!
yes the jasjam does have a radio.
......THANKS!, and to clarify that the dopod 838pro and the jasjam are the same unit internally??
So I need to search for a compatible rom with the fm radio enabled?
When I do a search for FM RADIO, all I recieve is radio in reference to the gsm radio.
Thanks for the tidbit of info!
I believe JJ was talking about the GSM radio in the phone. Don't get your hopes up.
Love your work JJ.
lol, ok, FM RADIO
To prevent possible further abuse, there isn't an FM radio built in to the phone. As someone posted earlier, you will need to stream any FM feeds that you want.
Resco Radio has worked fine for me.
Good luck though, let me know if you find it.
Thanks man ! i will keep reading..............................
Has anyone been able to find out if the PRO has a radio in it like the X and D2?

Common sites say Yes for FM Radio, but after I checked pdadb.net and motorola's developer site for Droid Pro specs - both the sites do NOT indicated FM Radio.
Now it all remains on someone who's bought the device and can let us know.
I own a Moto Pro
How can I check? (Without opening it or voiding my warrany)

Just plug in your headset and look for the FM Radio app in Menu. If it exists then Yes there is a FM Radio if NOT we have the answers.
FM Radio within TI wlan/bluetooth chipset
Hi Droid Pro Users!
There is a light in the dark for FM Radio fans.
I just found this info from TI about the on board chipset TI 1271
----------------
There are four solutions in the WiLink 6.0 product
offering. The WL1271 supports 802.11b/g/n in
the 2.4-GHz band, while the WL1273 supports
802.11a/b/g/n with 2.4-GHz and 5-GHz band
support. Both single-chip solutions support
Bluetooth 2.1 Release, ANT and FM transmit and
receive. The WL1271/3L support in addition to
the above, Bluetooth Low Energy Specification
4.0 + EDR.
---------
You will find all info here:
focus.ti.com/general/docs/wtbu/wtbuproductcontent.tsp?templateId=6123&navigationId=12762&contentId=29993&DCMP=WTBU&HQS=ProductBulletin+OT+wilink_6
That means the Droid Pro hardware is able to receive FM Radio and maybe also to send, but receiving would be good enough for me.
Now... who is able to build the necessary drivers?
I would love to do it but I have no idea how ;-)
Maik
Very interesting indeed!
When/if built the software and drivers would be brilliant. Maybe moto can do it if requested by many of us?
In the meantime I use tunein radio app from market, which works well using my data connection, network or wifi.
Sent from my DROID PRO using XDA App
I could bet that Motorla don't care about it.
As far as my experience with Moto is...
- they know that the chip is able to do it.
- they thought they can make it work
Result...
- maybe reception is too bad because of design flaws (chip or antenna position) -> they decided not to offer it
- maybe the marketing gang thought a FM radio is nothing for a business phone...
Anyway... I would take it even with a bad reception, but I'm sure they will not offer it.
An internet radio is not allways a good solution. You need an unlimited data plan and also a good reception. I made bad experiences during train travel and also in areas with lower reception. It sucks...
I want a real radio, please
If the transistor which taks care for FM radio is phisicaly connected, so that can use headphones as the anttena, then it is possible to have FM radio on your phone. Here is some new stuff that XDA user mikereidis have discovered about TI WL 127x chip. Maybe some developer is interested.
Hi guys,
How do we know fm radio chip is not connected? Is there any document confirming that or did any one opened the phone to check that? I have seen a thread where people were talking about enabling disabled fm radio in different phone.
Regards,
ncc74656
Well, there's a binary (in /system/bin/ but I can't remember its name) that communicates with the FM radio driver. And when I was playing around with it, there are some options like changing band or checking info, info was null (or no signal)...
So I guess we really can't make FM radio work just with software.
Maybe that binary came from an early Defy ported Rom, along with the driver, I don't know...
Please link the other thread you saw.
Sent from my Milestone 2 XDA App
as i read on development forum: "milestone 2 has the hw to play fm radio, its 'just' not wired. so unless you're crazy enough to open your phone and wire it yourself, no fm radio for milestone and that's it"
I don't know how is it about hw side - except the information already mentioned in the post above.
I only tried fm tuner binary, application and library pack from driod 2 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=769894), but without success - the radio application didn't even correctly started - I thought it will work, but only without signal - 'cause it is not wired to antenna...
I agree with post #2 - unfortunatelly it is shame, but it is - i think - impossible to get it work only with sw way... But I'm also still interested in some prove or source about fm tuner hardware situation in Milestone 2..
Download and install Tunein Radio. It's the best choice...trust me (at least here in Brazil).
hello, i hae mini s4 i9195.
yestarday i was update my firmware by kies.
again the lte4 option was disapper so i root my device and edit the persist.radio.lteon file.
now my fm radio is not work...i really need help beacuse i'm using the fm radio every day and allmost all day.
i have tune in but still i prefere the fm radio. thx.
that's my firmware
Sources conflict. Most say your device doesn't have a FM receiver. I know the I9505 doesn't and that's the worldwide model.
Xiia Live is a better choice in my opinion than Tune In, which is why I switched to the pro version when it was advertised on Amazon at a price of zero. Where I once had three different radio apps (TuneIn, iHeartRadio, DI.FM) Xiia allowed me to consolidate into one app all the stations I listen to, plus allowed me to add external radio streams such as Radio Rivendell.
Does Axon 7 have fm radio enabled?
I read here somewhere that it does have it in the SoC, but because of the circuit design the headphones can not be used as antenna (the sound chips are between the fm module and the hadphone port).
There is no FM Radio app on the device.
I downloaded the NextRadio app (I think that's what it's called?) and it said my hardware wasn't compatible. This is the same message I got on my 6P, which doesn't have a radio either.
According to this it should (http://www.gsm-specs.com/zte-axon-7/ in the media section) but like most said it doesn't look like it works natively will try to get it to work when i get it and tell you for sure I'm hopeful it will work but doubting it
The kernel source has it enabled
CONFIG_MEDIA_RADIO_SUPPORT=y and there is qcom.fmradio.jar in the framework folder
Still doesn't mean it's connected, would need to see dmesg from boot to see if it gates discovered or any modules for the radio get loaded
Sorry for bumping this buuut would it be possible to have a working FM radio?
With an altered kernel perhaps..?
Or let's just beg to ZTE to bring out Nougat with the FM radio feature not being disabled haha

It's a hardware issue, not software.
