Database Develop

Killer feature for me: FM Radio!!!

FM Radio development is missing! that's a killer feature, i use it every day in wm

second that!
For me, personally ... after I got new toy, my Xperia will be just an FM radio .. an expensive FM radio ..;-)
I do not need Camera or GPS because my Xperia will be staying put on the table to listen to radio and receiving messages from Skype messenger (always connected to WIFI).
But I think someone can get other HTC FM radio Android application and use it in Xperia .. please someone get that for Xperia, thanks.

yea, in italy free wifi wasn't legal until 2011, wifi and 3g coverage is really poor, 3g dataplan are very expensive and not for rechargeable SIM (in italy we don't use subscriptions)
FM radio, is free, and works everywhere!

I think that FM APIs are still unavailable to 3rd party developers.
I dont know how is this dont for xperia but this is the way on htc desire... :
Click / tap on the arrow to the left of the phone on the main screen and you will get a list of applications.
You have the FM Radio icon in row 4. Tap on it and listen to radio. Do not forget first to plug some headphones (any they do not have to be original) .

Maybe there's another phone that uses the same FM chip and for which there's working FM radio app?
I agree - FM radio support is essential. Without it users who would like to listen to the FM radio still will be forced to switch to WinMo.
Not everyone has Wi-Fi access to use TuneIn Radio and not every FM station has streaming broadcasts.

Motorola CLIQ XT is Android smartphone which has FM radio and uses MSM7201. Maybe someone could port it's FM radio app to X1?

i tryed to port libs and FM Radio apk, but it doesn't work , i tryed many other apsk, but still no luck

Just keep trying, please. There must be a way to make the radio work.

[Q] L90 (D405-TR) FM Radio Problem

Hi guys,
I’m from Turkey, I'm new user on this forum and I'm so sorry for quite poor English. I bought a L90 (D405-TR). But there isn’t FM Radio app in applications menu.
I read some Turkish forums (for LG G2) installing the ROM of different countries or by rooting to activate FM Radio.
1) I rooted the device. My /cust/OPEN_AME/TR/config/custom_apk_list.cfg contents as follows:
-/system/app/LGFmRadio.apk
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I've made this change in content is as follows, and I restart the phone:
+/system/app/LGFmRadio.apk
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Then I saw FM Radio app in the phone's application menu. I plugged a headset, and opening FM Radio app on app menu. But menus and buttons are passive. So that I could not listen fm radio
2) I flashed England and Italy's ROMs, I saw FM Radio app in the phone's application menu. Again I plugged a headset, and opening FM Radio app on app menu. But menus and buttons are passive. So that I could not listen fm radio
3) Both the phone is rooted, and while both been installed in a different country (which again was the root case)… I was installed Spirit FM Radio, Connected Music Player, etc. I did not listen to the radio.
Q1: Is there Fm radio receiver / hardware on my device? How can I check/detect whether there is?
Q2: Let's assume that there is an FM radio receiver. Both of these methods are not listened to the radio?
Q3: Fm Radio hardware which prevents other transactions have to do?

According to the research I've done, this morning in fact, there is a builtin FM radio receiver in some D405 and D410 models. However I cannot be more specific than that. I do know that the D415 does NOT have a builtin FM receiver.

Thanks @PBakker for reply. I've already flashed a ROM belonging to the Italian model (d405n). But still, I could not listen to the radio. When I flashed any ROM, Does changing the kernel? (I think the problem is caused by radio to the kernel prevent, If there is fm radio hardware on my phone. However, my device, I don't know whether it is fm radio hw.).

As far as i know by most rom packages you need to update or change the kernel seperately. So kernel not affected by installing rom

Kernel is part of boot.img. So flashing ROM does affect kernel.

I have the same problem. I just bought the phone yesterday, (L90 D405-TR) and this evening i realized there's no radio app in the app drawer.
Is it possible to use it's radio receiver using an app from google play ? Or do those require mobile data ?
I guess we need to find out first and foremost whether our model (L90 D405-TR) has a radio receiver after all...

Yep. I can't seem to find out if this version of the phone has an FM receiver.

Does anyone use FM radio?

I haven't, not even once and I got the phone for more than a year but I understand that some people would like to see that feature.

For what is worth if you still need to find the answer.
Open the Google music play app and if your phone has an FM radio tuner you will see the following options:
Listen Now
My Library
Playlists
Radio
Explore
If radio is not listed as one of the options then your phone lacks that capability.
Hope this helps.
Cheers......

FM radio?

Do we still have no app or something that lets us use FM radio?

What does it do? Didn't find much on a web search, and haven't heard of the app before. Just an FM Radio app?

This jsut activates and allows you to use the FM chip that is already in your LG G4. Once you install this, the app asks you to plug in a WIRED headset. (The wires are used as the radio antenna!) Once the headset is plugged in, you just turn the app on (center of the screen on/off button) and tune to your local FM radio station. This is just a standard radio, meaning you will NOT get FM stations that are not in the broadcast area. This is NOT an internet radio. This is just a regular FM radio inside your phone. Be sure to use a wired headset or external speaker. A wired connection is required. Enjoy!

Awesome
simply awesome
Thanka lot
god bless mate

I got used to using next radio with my g2 so i dow loaded it and its works good on g4

Thank you!
Just a thank you note as it worked fine on my LG G4 phone!

LG FM Radio app (APK Download)!! Works on Verizon V50!

I found this online and can confirm it works with the Verizon variant of the V50. It's version 7.20.12. You must allow installations from non-trusted sources under settings/security to install this app. Enjoy!!
You can download it from android file host HERE.
Enjoy!

Screenshots of installed app.

UPDATED 8.6.2019 - Download link updated to provide LG FM Radio version 7.20.12. Thanks to @Inerent for informing me of the newer version of this app.

Thanks for sharing. I had installed v7.0.16 on my LG G7+ and I realized that it was buggy with lots of noise while listening to certain stations. Now I've installed this upgrade (v 7.10.8) and it works like a charm. Thanks a lot

I have version 7.20. 12...

Did you know that It's a similar app from LG called TV? It scans, with the headphones, for local TV stations. Pretty cool!

Just installed it on my LG G8. Thanks!

I heard there is a TV Tuner App for the LG; is this true?

I have the European model LG V50 - LVM500EM. I installed the FM radio apk app from external source. At first, it was installed like a charm. But when I tried to turn it on it won't work at all. The weird thing is it recognised the earphone not connected when I unplugged it.
Then I installed NextRadio apk and it saying that my phone supports FM radio. Again, it won't work when I turned it on.
Is there something wrong with the device? A help would be appreciated.

Radio fm in lg g8s?
hello, could the fm radio work with nextradio on LG G8s European version?

I've tryed, it doesn't seem to work on g8s

Hello everyone I introduce myself, I am new to this forum.
I have had the version LMV500EM and I have had to return it after two days for not being able to activate the radio, with no version of the LG radio apk or NEXTRADIO. The latter, gives a congratulatory message after detecting the existence of the radio chip, indicates that the headphones are connected, but does not search for any station.
Has anyone found a solution for this problem? I would buy this mobile again if it were possible for the FM radio to work. It is essential for me.
Thank you.

Sorry for bumping an old thread but I'm having the same problem with my LG V60 Thinq. LM-V600EA. I can install the FM radio app but it won't start the radio. It gives a message to plug in headphones if none are in, but once I plug some in clicking the on button does nothing. I even have the correct APK from another V60 Thinq variant. I think it is sickening that LG does this and I will be returning the phone and never buying any more LG products ever again.

True. In the end for this reason I had to buy the Korean version. The radio is activated, but in return I have network problems with Spanish operators and some texts and applications that always appear in Korean language. This region policy is a shame.

I'm using version 9.20.16 of LG's FM Radio app on an LG K51 (LM-K500UM). Has anyone found a previous version of the app that doesn't require that Bluetooth must be off to play the fm radio? The NextRadio app does run when Bluetooth is connected to a headset, but it detects audio re-routing and "thinks" the headphone wire has been disconnected and insists that a headset be plugged in for use of its cord as an antenna. The LG FM Radio app toasts "Cannot start FM Radio while Bluetooth headset is connected." Therefore, I can't use my Bluetooth speaker, which doesn't have a built-in tuner, as I have done with other setups in the past, to wirelessly play the fm radio through it. I use Lesser AudioSwitch and SoundAbout as audio routers. Thanks for any help with this. Incidentally, my phone isn't rooted, so I can't use Mike Reid's Spirit FM app.

Same situation and same model, bought fully expecting it to have fm radio, would also appreciate help too
I am starting to suspect that LG has disabled fm on LVM500EM and that US and Korean versions can support it
