Only if you stream it from an internet broadcast via WAN or GPRS.

What is this XDA Developers or XDA Users? It should be able to write a radio app that gets the radio signal from the device.........
I actually made a program that lowered the frequency the phone is receiving, but due to its digital nature, I only get DAB radio.

The most simple answer is : go to buy a FM/mp3 player with bluetooth enabled and pair it with your O2 XDA mini-S.
This is what i am doing with my Asus.
Why dont you buy a nokia HS 12W bluetooth handsfree it has FM in it and works with the mini s ?

you also might consider to buy the htc P3300.
it has fm-radio on board as well as gps

this is probably useless and off topic but i did come across this fm tuner application for the Eten G500 described here

Well, perhaps not 100%, but (and forgive me for being a little ignorant) if you can activate GPS (as is being discussed on the Hermes forum) then would that mean you could also receive RDS?? sorry for the basic lesson needed....

cause the Hermes has a GPS capable Qualcomm chipset (though it's not evident whether it has a proper antenna) but the Wizard doesn't have either that or a FM tuner...
Hey mates, really appreciate that forum. It's very useful. I have an idea... Is it possible to use our Diamond like a transmitter for iPod? Or is there any program that we can use to check the weight of something?
Thanks in advance.
Best wishes.
JS.
Transmitter, how would that be possible without any built in FM transmitter? If that´s what you thought?
How do you want to weight anything with the Dimamond? That´s not possible!
Well there is FM Radio and i thought that it is possible to be done something like this. Well it's just an idea...If someone can realize it it will be very nice I think...
*ironic on*and if the camera-diod would be usable as a flashlight this will be also very nice*ironic off*
It's just not working, the FM Radio is a reciver no transmitter and won't be turned into one by software
(Well: HTC implemented a Multitouch surface and didn't really used it, maybe they also implemented a FM transmiter and don't told us
In this case it would be possible^^)

I don't want to be bad, but I have a KS20, and the camera LED flash CAN be used as a flashlight (volume down with phone on standby).
Quite a useful feature, also.
I'm changing for a Touch Pro, which doesn't have that!
FM transmitters are technicaly illegal in many european countries, but that is irrelevant since it doesnt have one, and what exactly was you thinking the phone can do to weigh something?

Maybe if someone wrote a little app to monitor the accelerometer as the object was dropped on it... I'm not going to volunteer for that one, though...

If the display can measure pressure-strength it should be possible to a small degree.
Well I just like the idea, I know that's not possible, but I'm trying to think for useful things without realization.
Hmm, whos going to volunteer their diamond for the max load test on that one then?
Hey guys,
I have attached the FM transmitter CAB, it is the version used on Eten Pocket PC Phones.
I tested it on my phone - it runs but messes up all other sounds such as ring tones and musics etc.
It doesn't do anything probably because the device lacks some transmitter hardware?
It is russian a version but that doesn't matter - you need to install both files to be able to run it.
Wish someone could make it work!!!

It won't work because the radio of the atrix does not support FM Radio, but only cell signals. GPU and CPU is basicly what the share because of tegra 2, but this is two different devices

The radio chip, contained in the Atrix is not the one contained in the O2x...
Tegra 2 is not a complete platform, but a SoC providing a CPU, GPU, memory, and a platform to add other device specific additions.
Even if the radio of the Atrix supported FM Radio, it wouldn't be fixed by grabbing a FM app and FM firmware specific to the O2x.. It could even mess stuff up.
my gosh...its the same chip man
Broadcom BCM4329 802.11n Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 2.1, and FM Tuner

Yeah, yeah.. The HTC Tattoo and the HTC Hero uses the same radio chip as each other, and yet only one of the chips has FM Radio capability... Two BCM4329 chips can have different functionality.. Tell me, why would moto leave out FM radio support, if the chip actually supports it?
why? lock the nexus one ( its enabled by cyogen)
lock to htc g2 (its enable by htc desire z kernel)

Okay, if I can't convince you, I'll just let you fool around, and leave this thread...
Cya if you figre it out
The chip DOES support both FM Rx and Tx, the question instead is have motorola bothered to solder on the antenna pin. And since there isn't a FM app, I guess they didn't bother with it. Even if the connection is almost free to do, it can be pretty much after some thousands devices. See if anyone can find the service manual, it'll probably tell you for sure.

This post has the Optimus 2X apps.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=13070414&postcount=2
My FM app ALMOST works on Optimus 2X on CM7, except for sound. I'm hoping to figure out the audio routing trick.
My app has also been tried on Atrix, but it doesn't seem to get any signal. I think the Atrix hardware may not support it via lack of antenna and/or power connections, and perhaps analog audio isn't even hooked up.
lost cause?!
EclipseX said:

On the Atrix, yes I think it's a lost cause, but I'd love to find out otherwise, as would LOTS of Atrix owners who have never had FM on their phone. Atrix has the "Jumping RSSI" problem noted in post 2 of my thread, which I think indicates the hardware can't work.
On the Optimus 2X, the stock FM app proves it's possible.
I just posted some new tech info on my thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=16604485&postcount=923
The O2X apparently DOES support analog FM audio, so I think the task is easier than digital only. Just have to send the right commands to the WM8994 and hope the audio path doesn't get disrupted by audio notifications etc.
I hope to learn more about the WM8994 when I get a Samsung Galaxy S in the next month or so... We shall see...
The official HTC specs page doesn't list FM radio, but then it doesn't list it as a feature for other phones which have FM radio and the HTC FM radio app either.
Does anyone have a screenshot of the HTC system apps for the HTC One showing an FM radio app?
I know all about internet radio... just interested here if FM radio is built in or not, thanks.

All HTC android Phones have FM Radios
Sony and HTC tend to make FM Radio a regular app on all their phone while samsung on the other hand tend to make it only available on their flagship phones.

Almost all. There's a few that don't (in hardware), like these:
- HTC Droid DNA.
- HTC Desire CDMA / BravoC
- HTC Rezound ADR6425LVW Verizon (Vigor)
- HTC Rhyme ADR6330VW Verizon "blissc" shows negative to 0 RSSI.
- HTC Magic (Sapphire), T-Mobile myTouch 3G, NTT docomo HT-03A
- HTC Dream, T-Mobile G1, Era G1.
Then there are some US carrier variants that don't officially support it but that apps can enable, such as the AT&T OneX(L) LTE.
Sprint supposedly has a deal with the US FM broadcasters to get $10 grand ransom per year out of each of them. See my post here for some details: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=36567961&postcount=5154
Other carriers might also enable if they get paid off, or may keep disabled as long as negotiations aren't fruitful.

The app us there for international versions. But disabled for the us versions most likely. Hardware should be the same so a custom ROM will probably get it to work

When you say played with one, have you checked the actual usability through headphones? Decent reception, for instance.
EDIT: Wait a minute. Nobody has this phone yet, right ? When somebody gets one, please send me a debug log. Or if you see the chips identified in an article somewhere, please post. A ROM dump would also help answer some questions.
If somebody with a (preferably rooted) HTC One would send me a debug log from my FM app, I could tell you more about the FM chip, and the prospects for enabling FM on stock ROMs with no FM app or custom ROMs.
Free version of my app is here: http://d-h.st/9Ck . Use Menu-> Test-> Email-> Logs and press Send after 20 seconds.
My hope is that the One uses the standard Qualcomm reference design with a WCD93xx audio chip and WCN36xx FM/Bt/WiFi/etc combination chip. This is a very nice, pretty much fully digital combination with a lot of power and capabilities, that will likely take some time to fully appreciate and enable. IE, it's IMO the architecture of "tomorrow"/2013-2014. It will be very interesting to see if the Galaxy S4 uses this architecture, for the US, rest of the world, or world-wide.
And ideally, stock ROMs with no FM app will contain the Qualcomm FM framework files needed to enable FM without root.
I had a quick look at the Android_Revolution_HD-One_2.0 ROM and see FM_Radio.apk and the widget and support files etc.
I tried running the APK on my OneX LTE with the latest AT&T JB and it crashed due to some missing widget code.
I'm not entirely positive, but it appears the audio is Qualcomm WCD93xx and the Bluetooth is Broadcom BCM4335.
I'm guessing the Broadcom chip is the source of the FM, and not a Qualcomm WCN36xx BT/WiFi/FM chip.
Yes, the ATT version has the FM radio. In fact, the only reason I got this phone was so I would never be without in
Severe storms. I then installed a custom rom just in case art force pushed an update an brick my device. Only problem
I've run into is some market apps are incompatible with my device now. I'd file a bug report with Viperxl
But I'm not allowed. Just hope the update fixes it.

HTC One M8 can do FM radio
I am using the HTC One M8 by Verizon. FM Radio was not installed.
On another site I discovered that other carriers use the NextRadio app. At first, the NextRadio app wouldn't Install because it is not allowed on my Verizon phone.
So, I found the APK on internet.
From the website I downloaded the file to my Verizon HTC M8. Using a file manager, I located the file on phone, tapped it, and it installed with no problem
I am listening to the FM radio as I type this.
Attached copy of the file.

my htc one model HTC6500L phone has fm app and it scans for signal but not working(no signal) what is the solution
Folks, does the P30 Pro have a built in FM radio? My Lite version for my wife has it (NextRadio says it does but locks up endlessly) and I'd like the Pro version when my Mate 9 expires and have a radio as well.
Can't find a P30 Lite forum here by the way. Maybe it's too generic or underpowered.
P30 pro doesn t have fm radio build in and that sucks. That's why I always have an old LG device with me, just for the fm radio.
Oh well, I will stick with my wife's phone then

Looks like her model doesn't even have an NFC chip.
No NFC in some models? Who does that in this day and age. I feel well and truly screwed. Can't even exchange for one that does, none of the shops near me even understand the problem.
FM Radios are dead because digital took over, not many phones with FM radios still working in them, my S9 didn't nor did my S7, and not even sure my S5 did
NFC should be there though
No nfc in MAR-LX2

I wish it were. I could not see the model number on the box when I bought it and didn't know some models of the Lite had NFC and some didn't until I downloaded the manual. The shop certainly didn't!
The MAR-LX1A and MAR-LX1M have NFC but MAR-LX2 (Which is my wife's) does not. Thats' what the manual states and I certainly cannot find any NFC function on this phone as it is said in the manual. Well and truly screwed.
As with the FM radio test that I did with NextRadio, I bet the NFC chip is present but not enabled and I'd be happy to find a ROM/Hack to enable both properly.
