Good Morning. I say hello again because I have not written in the forum for a long time.
I have the Xiaomi Mi A2 4/64 un muy hands, which I liked but I can not find the way to activate the FM radio.
When I use *#*#6484#*#* to enter in the test the FM radio is not in the list. So I suspect that it will not be possible to activate it with root
Could someone confirm to me that it is definitely not possible to use FM radio in My A2 with android 8.1? ITS posibely a problem of mi Phone?
Thank you very much for your help.
As it doesn't have a headphone jack there is probably no way to use the headphones as an antenna. That's why there is no FM radio most likely
But it does have a headphone jack, you just have to use the adapter. I don't know if that could then be used as an antenna or not, seems plausible though.
An FM radio, to me, is kind of a Safety thing. All phones should have them.
Hi,
in the parallel branch there is the following information:
"Mi 6X supports extra features (disabled in Adndroid One firmware) as FM Radio, APT-X APTX-HD and LDAC Bluetooth audio (LDAC comes to all Mi A2 on Android 9 update, confirmed by beta testers, maybe APT-X too, don't count on FM radio unless it is officially exported to the US where will be mandatory to enable it)"
So I hope and believe that someone sometime will unlock FM module

Let's hope this is possible without reverse engineering
Wait, we have the HW for FM? I can't find the 6x official presentation page to confirm this...

the Mi 6X has FM radio, the feature is disabled by Google request, unless Xiaomi launches the A2 in USA google wont allow the FM radio feature (in the US will be mandatory to enable FM function if supported by HW), all Qualcomm powered SPh in the USA should be able to install https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nextradioapp.nextradio a generic FM radio APP, Google even dont allow Pixel's FM radio thru this app.

This possibility was there before the last update via two ways .... Or with * # * # 6484 # * # * or with "Activity Launcher" from playstore :
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.szalkowski.activitylauncher
_unfortunately, after the last update this possibility no longer exists (maybe in the future it will come again...who know?)
Activity launcher from the play store has the ability to view the FM radio test. It says failed though :/
MI A2 Jasmine Radio FM
I have rooted my A2 Jasmine and I have installed Spirit FM but it tells me that the radio cip could be disabled and the FM radio does not work. Someone is working to get the FM radio on the A2 Jasmine?

January update did not bring me FM radio so this is an other Fake News message.
need advice re: next radio app version 6.0 2492 installed. message "...can't access fm receiver...". 8.1.1 fm radio preinstalled on mi a2 lite. does 8.1.1 need to be uninstalled or force stop, to enable 6.0?
I think you're in the wrong sub-forum, this is for the Mi A2 phone (has no usable FM chip) , not the Mi A2 Lite.

The Snapdragon chip has FM in it.
But the Liquid doesn't have FM, dunno if it's disabled or took out (hardware)
So what I read is not a fantasy, I hope someone develops a utility that allows us to use it!
I think its the bluetooth chip that have FM receiver, not the CPU.
Check this out:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=608340
If Bluetooth chip is same then Liquid should have radio and since F1 has radio and F1 and Liquid hardware are pretty much the same, I think there is big possibility Liquid to have radio, which is disabled.
Also I have seen in a dump from HTC Espresso a radio application.
Look at this:
http://www.broadcom.com/products/Bluetooth/Bluetooth-RF-Silicon-and-Software-Solutions/BCM4325
I wonder then why FM radio is disabled and the bluetooth is 2.0 instead of 2.1??

bluetooth might be because android just started supporting bt 2.1 in eclair (who knows if updating the radio will make it work in 2.1 instead of 2.0)... fm radio who knows...

It occurs to me that we are experiencing growth Andorid day to day, who knows if in a not too distant future we will also see an application that runs the FM receiver
Exactly, giving the limited resources Acer has to making Android phones (probably just ramping up), they decided to skip on developing software drivers for the FM radio since they figured most people will use 3G streaming. but I like FM radio since it uses way less power and for those who don't have a data plan to burn through. Hopefully someone is able to write software drivers for the FM radio.
Some notes on this subject:
1.Acer has little to nothing to do to get the FM working, it's broadcom who makes the bluetooth (and thus FM) driver. What Acer has to do is only a GUI, which isn't hard to do
2.Nexus One has the same chip (ok, not the same, but they share the same driver), and doesn't have FM enabled either, that makes me think their might be some problem somewhere. (but the previous posts stating that using FM on a recent smartphone is unusual seems like a good guess.)
3.I've seen linux FM drivers for BCM4325, in Samsung Galaxy ROM (It's the btld daemon)
The thing is that this driver is fully closed source and doesn't use the bluez stack (linux bluetooth stuff), that's perhaps the reason why Acer and Google decided not to use it.
Anyway these chips are used by N1, Samsung Galaxy (I7500), iPhone 3GS, HTC HD2, HTC Touch Pro2, well, all brand new shiny phones, so it's likely someone of these developers will get something at some point

do you say FM radio!!!!!
If yes, is it possible somehow to enable it....because I realize games,mp3 and chatting doesn't mean entertainment for me on the road.....
I've heard bradcomm released data sheets for their liquid bluetooth chip...
any news on this topic, or fm is just too simple ?
and what about terrestrial digital radio (sorry, french..) ?
can it be supported or received at all by our phones ?
may be it need new hardware ?
well, i'm glad to wake up this thread, as i've got some good news
i'm not able to use it myself, so i'll wait for others or the release of the thing in question.
No more waiting, here it is : fm is coming to our liquids

He mean FM radio transmitter, not receiver. Which you can transmit your music being played trough FM radio transmitter and received by any other device with FM radio receiver (usually using FM radio in the car).
actually fm transmitter & receiver are on same chip nothing work as a single component..
the thing is that we don't have fm transmission app.
i would search for a third party one & let you guys know if a found one..

is it? that would be very nice if we get a third party application
Its not possible by an app. Coz. Its not coded into android system libraries & not possible to design a specific for different model as they have different antennas of soc chip

Are you sure that we have FM transceiver in our device? And in the same chip? It's great if we have it, since their technology is quite big different, but very possible to integrated in one chip.
I interested, may be you already knew what chip is it (chip type)? Maybe I can use it in my hardware project. Thanks.
My Spirit FM app is reported to be at least partly working on X6 u9000 now
See this for some details: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=19588094&postcount=1648
Latest test package is here: http://www.mediafire.com/file/5381ub38p0a1uym/Spirit_FM_Radio_v111122.apk .
I don't think I can even get one of these phones here in Canada. Maybe I
should ask Huawei to send me one...
--------------
I think the FM is in the main Qualcomm SOC (chip). It's almost impossible to find any information on this chip, except for the code in the Qualcomm Code Aurora FM app.
That code DOES support transmit, but I have no idea if the X6 hardware can also handle transmit.
Among the many, many hundreds (or thousands?) of Android phones out there, only a few support FM transmit in the hardware. AFAIK this is only a few made by Sharp for Japan domestic use.
So I'm EXTREMELY pessimistic that this phone could support FM transmit. I think it makes FCC etc certification more expensive and it takes longer. But who knows...
AFAICT only this phone and the X5 use this Qualcomm Tavarua FM.

i just downloaded ur sprit fm radio .... can u tell me how to config it ¿

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

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...

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.

This sucks iv got pro 30pro and im totally shocked theres no fm radio. After all its a top phone
The P20 Pro does not have an FM receive in the phone. This has become a fairly rare feature to be included in flagships lately.
Even if the chipset have FM receiver, those phones without headphone jack won't be able to use FM since it requires external antenna to be attached.
I installed NextRadio to listen local FM radio on my device. The model is SM-A715W. Since the Android 11 update, I can't listen with SmartRadio anymore! When I launch the application, it says that it doesn't have any access to the FM chip and I must call the provider. I called my provider, and they say that I must contact Samsung. So I contacted Samsung, and they said that I should listen Radio online, but I want local radio!
Does anyone have the same problem?

AFAIK stock Samsung Android 11 does not support fm radio any more.
As new Samsung devices do not longer have an fm radio chip, I think that Samsung will not implement this feature in upcoming firmware versions.
But maybe I am wrong and Samsung will enable fm radio again in future updates.
