i have got a very promising hint that Samsung could let use have AOD on s6/edge
bcoz there is no way a sideloaded app would be let to create a new SECTION in display settings as ALWAY ON DISPLAY without rooting,but unfortunately its force closed.
another hint is AOD version 1.7.46
the only apks seems to work on s6 is 1.7.46 and the apks before this version would not even install on s6
i myself has installed the apks and the great thing is it created aod section in display settings u can see them in screenshots included
i might be wrong
How did you get that ?! What firmware do you run ?
Got it myself too on 7.0 vodafone branded firmware but force-closes for me...Couldnt we decompile and make it work?
The 7.0 (2.X.X.X) apps for AOD service wont install because there is already a service with that name...so samsung took care of that...this is bull****. Cant we rename the app and sign it?

You need a kernel that supports AOD. There are some custom ROMs that allow it but its buggy

Works pretty good on Nemesis ROM
I've been searching for mirror apk's but can't find it.. it's not there
when i see it on playstore it says not compatible..
is it not supported?? if anyone has the apk kindly share it.. thankyou
edit: found out but it won't open up (any solution's) using du rc
I think I saw radio fm in Asia version. If you have unlocked BL you can try flash stock retasia.
First - maybe ask someone from f.e. India, here with p.m.
Moto x style does not support fm radio

Because this device doesn't have a Broadcom based WiFi chipset, there no Broadcom Firmware file ... Nexmon will never work.

Hi
Could anyone get a FM radio working under Lineage?
I installed SpiritF and I get:
SpriritF 2015_03_17_beta
ERROR: Tuner API did not start or stop.
This device may need a kernel with a working FM driver.

although I set Menu>Set>Service>Audio Plugin to LG2
I also found the original LG G5 radio but it closes on launch...
Should I use another app - which?
Thanks
(H870, NO google, no gapps - only F-Droid, Yalp and XDA Labs)
[BUMP] Can anyone please recommend a FM radio tuner apk that they use else could anyone please upload the apk from the OPEN EU LG-H870 11G ROM?
Thanks a lot!
Hey,
Its not that easy, maybe someone could help me to build this together,
I found so far in /system :
A library for fm services, .. /lib,lib64
Apk for fm services
Apk fm radio...
Dont know exactly in wich way the kernel is involved
All apks and librarys have to be deodexed... Which means that i have to complete pull the whole system deodexing and then make some trys,
I think this app could be installed when the lg framework is some kind of present
Working on stock rom... : Nextradio... In germany i have to download the app via browser as apk
Hi
Thanks @MartinIrrelevant
Would anyone with an H870 with working FM radio mind posting their build.prop from /system please?
Let me explain: I now have a H930DS / lineage 16 - although LG states it comes with FM radio, it would not work on mine and other people's phone; @xda_nz provided me with the solution:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=79977031&postcount=1457
basically, someone compared the build.prop of an H930 with working radio with the build.prop of an H930 without working radio and found out that the difference was a line:
HTML:
vendor.bluetooth.soc=cherokee
Adding the line to the non working radio build.prop solved the issue
so maybe it is worth doing the same comparison on an H870 so that I could get FM radio working on the H870 I passed down to my son.
Thanks in advance.

Attached.
Build.prop is not a valid file to be uploaded, so I have posted it as build.prop.text.
Hey,
To get FM radio working on Lineage is not easy. The entire rom + kernel needs to be rebuilt with the proper driver for FM to work.
Currently, Lineage (on these LG phones) doesn't use a driver which supports FM radio. So any app or whatever will not have anything to communicate with. It's the same as if the hardware wasn't even there.

@xda_nz: Thanks! So you have an H870 Lineage too, but yours has FM radio working?
@askermk2000: well, when i added the entry in the build.prop of Lineage 16 for my H930DS, that did the trick - no kernel recompiling whatsoever!
[EDIT] @xda_nz: I think you posted the build.prop for the H930DS, without radio enabled:
Code:
ro.product.device=joan

WOW isn't that brilliant. You go ahead and do that then, on your LG G6. It sure will work nicely, and I sure don't know what the **** I'm talking about

@askermk2000: I did not mean to be offensive in any way - sorry if you felt I was not considering your reply, sorry also as I did not know who you are; I just found out you worked on an H870 kernel so indeed I would assume you known what you are talking about when it comes to kernels and I understand what you said about recompiling a kernel to include the required module.
What I was just saying is something i could see for myself as a fact: in the Lineage 16 that is currently installed on my H930DS, FM radio was not working:
the FM radio app provided in the Lineage 16 would not work without a headphone (requirement for all such apps) but when I plugged my headphones, i got
"FM operation failed"
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
the stock LG FM radio would just fail on launch
By following @xda_nz instructions, FM radio now plays, with headphones attached of course.
From this, I would deduct the kernel in the Lineage 16 for the H930DS does includes the FM module, unlike the kernel of the current Lineage 16 for H870 and merely adding the line to the build.prop won't do.

Yes, you could say that.
When I wrote "on these LG phones" above, I meant (since this is the G6 forum) these: G5/G6/V20 - since all these are based on msm8996 platform and shares the same Lineage source.
I guess it was construed as meaning all LG phones on LOS.
and I understand what you said about recompiling a kernel to include the required module.

It's a bit more complicated than that. Because there is no separate module one can simply enable and compile in. This need an entirely different driver than what is used now, a driver which also controls
bluetooth and gps, in addition to fm radio. It also interfaces with the wifi driver. And there are changes needed in android system, to tell it how to use this driver, which currently there seems to be no standard
way of doing. At least none that anyone has successfully implemented (for this specific platform).
I've been thinking of looking into this as part of my new LOS kernel effort. I need to compile the rom myself with appropriate changes to test it out, though I'm totally new to Rom stuff so it will take a while
to get into.

Hi @askermk2000
Maybe people who developped LOS for H930DS could help you / provide insight?
Hi,
I'm, looking for an APK file of LG native camera app with working wide-angle.
I tried GCamera and G7 app, but first one keeps switching back to single lens, second is not working at all.
Where can I find such file or can anyone post this APK ? I'm looking for the version after "ThingQ" update (Android 9).
Thanks
PS. I would love to get more of those native APKs if possible
Hi there. I am too looking for the Android 9 LGG6 Camera apk. I tried an update from From APK Mirror and messed up my camera. So if anyone can post it this would make two of us happy. Sad with the PIE update that LG did not include any portrait style mode for our phones though. That is why I tried another APK.
I found all LG G6 stock apps/apks here https://rootmygalaxy.net/lg-g6-apps-apks-are-now-available-for-download/
Well I tried installing that Camera APK and it didn't overwrite the one I have installed and since my bootloader is locked I can't flash a different one. Hopefully someone can pull the APK from their PIE install.
