And is RSSI near 0 or negative ? See my post above.
Here's my guess. Verizon (the customer) tells HTC to disable FM and they do.
And the Rezound is exclusive to Verizon ? No International version with FM ?
I can imagine a small possibility that there is a jumper missing (or a grounding jumper present) on the PCB with the FM/combo chip. A missing jumper would connect the chip FM antenna pin(s) to the earphone jack, or a present jumper would ground the pin.
If so, then it's possible that a bit of soldering might enable FM.
Also, there's always the remote possibility of a software controlled antenna switch somewhere. But I've been looking for this magic switch on various Motorola devices for the past year and haven't found it yet.
All in all, I'm very doubtful about the prospects for Verizon HTC devices with no stock FM app to be FM enable-able. I'd love it since my app would have a new market, but the Verizon/HTC FM disabling story seems pretty likely IMO.
I really hope this isn't the case. I miss FM radio on my phone. I had it on my Dinc2
