FM Radio

There's a pre-installed FM radio on here but it won't show up in the app drawers I found out how to get it. Download AnyCut from the market (free) open it up and select new shortcut then activity scroll til you see FM Radio select it. Its gonna create a short cut on your homescreen. Open it up it allows you to select a station but no sound I went to settings to change the country you in but no sound still not even static.

I saw this in titanium backup also, confused me. Maybe a new software update will give us access to it, or its just not supposed to be on there. Im hoping for the first one though

EDIT: I made the shortcut, and I HEARD STATIC!!! I turned the volume up all the way and you can clearly hear it, and some stations reported stereo, some didnt. This makes me think we actually have an fm radio, but its just not configured right.

I think you have to have headphones plugged in because it used the cable as an antenna for the radio.

This is a pretty cool find. I was able to get static but not actual sound. Would be nice to get it to work somehow.

look into what makes the FM Radio work in the, Huawei x6 (China) aka, Spice m410 (India).

They have an FM Radio and are the same hardware as the "Motorola" (cough Cough) Triumph ....... Only difference is CDMA vs GSM and a little different outer housing.

Maybe you can use some of the files from one of those phones to get the Radio working.....?

Hello, I am new to the forum. I tried the anycut method and got static on my mt. I heard something about reconfiguring the signal rout through bluetooth. Could this make the radio work?

And your headphones have to have the FM radio antenna built into them too. This is the case with any FM radio on phones. Unfortunately I don;t have any good suggestions on where to look for such an item.
