How to get FM Radio on One Plus One

[@work]

I was checking my opo ..fooling around and saw this "Qualcomm WCN3680" and then I saw an FM radio hmmm I thought OPO didn't have, then google it and here we are

Why use a chip with fm tuner and disable it? ..unless it's defective ones from qualcomm with fm tuner in a non working condition ..but cheaper [emoji14]

It requires that there be a connection to the headphone jack so the cord for the headphones be used as an antennae, but that connection is not made on all phones that use the chip, its not the same as the audio connection to the headphones.

if the problem is the antenna a mod could be used to enable the radio but that's not the case, it's disabled by hardware ..just my 2 cents

It has a FM reciver

Hello mate, the one plus one doesn't have a FM reciver

the lgendary OPO eveen got an FM tranmitter (it can send). but no antenna

Its true. I hope CM folks can enable it.

NPR has article on it. The Hidden FM Radio Inside Your Pocket, And Why You Can't Use It

The Hidden FM Radio Inside Your Pocket, And Why You Can't Use It

Most smartphones have a built-in FM chip. But whether or not it's activated is in the hands of the mobile carriers, who profit when you stream radio. The broadcast industry is pushing to change this.
