FM Radio is supported for ALL WP8 phones after GDR2. I'm assuming that it isn't included in that particular operator variant package. It will probably be slowly rolled out in segments.
I have an Unlocked Ativ S, I updated last night, I got "Data Sense" after a reset but I didn't get FM Radio.
In my Music Hub, I can't find the "Radio" option.

Are you really sure FM Radio is supported for all WP8 ?

Microsoft hasn't specified that any WP8 phones would be left out of this. In this case, the ATIV S I8750 uses a Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Plus SoC chipset. This chipset has BT, WiFi, GPS and FM radio integrated. This happens to be the SAME chip that the Lumia WP8 devices are using.

EDIT: Also did you try hooking in headphones? I wonder if the option is disabled unless you have headphones in at the time.

Yea I tried hooking in the headphones.
As far as I understood, Ativ S doesn't have the WCN3660 chip required for Bluetooth 4.0/FM Radio.

It's pretty clear to me what SoC is.

The point is : it seems FM is not integrated on the chip used to build Ativ S.

What I can assure you is I don't have FM Radio. :)
Hmm. I don't know then :). You could be right about that missing chip. I just went based off of what I read about the phone and the chip from Qualcomm's website. Has anyone else with a Ativ S I8750 gotten FM Radio with the GDR2 update?

Hi there, I just got my Ativ S today (and well, this is my first WP ^^)
So I'm just wondering what's does this Rom add to the actual and original Rom (8.0.100327.77)?
