LG G5 FM radio? - AT&T LG G5 Questions & Answers

The specs on PhoneArena and some articles I've read mention the G5 having a FM radio. I assume this has been removed by AT&T as it has done on past phones.
I remember in the past being able to install/flash he radio app and getting the functionality back. Is it possible to get FM radio functioning the the G5 or has AT&T disabled it in such a way that even with the proper app installed it still will not work.
Just another reason I think I'll be buying international, unlocked and non-bloatware filled phones in the future.

Tried it last night and it doesn't work on my AT&T G5
Apparently it works with some AT&T handsets but not the G5 currently. I have no idea how this works or why not all phones are supported/enabled.

Exactly, from what I've read LG G5 does have a radio but, is disabled by certain carriers. In our case the at&T has it disabled ... I know I waw bummed out too when I found out

I have an LG G5 (H850TR) and fm radio chip doesnt work on this device. (it has fm chip) I want to know if I install EU stock rom for H850, Is there a possibility of its work? Because there is only one difference between H850 and H850TR, its about Fm radio. Thanks....

At the LG G5 H850K (Australia) with H85010c_00_OPEN_EU_OP_0415, the FM radio does work without a problem.

I had the international G5, now I have the AT&T model, neither have FM radio.

V10 with G4 radios?

I have the T-Mobile v10 that I'm using in Canada. Problem is that LTE band 4 doesn't work, it just stops working after a while. My wife has the G4 and is with the same cell carrier and her phone has no issues with band 4 LTE. Soooo I was wondering if there is any way of flashing the radio on the g4 to work with the v10. Maybe it will resolve the issue.
I don't know if this method is even possible so that's why I'm asking here.
Thanks.
I don't think so. Radios are very hardware dependent and I have never heard of one working from a different phone.

US992 US Cellular

Hello,
Why there is no threat or forum for the US992 version of the LG g5 (us cellular) ?
Not enough users? Would a rom for at&t version work in the us cellular version ? (since they seem to be very similar)
Thanks.

US Cellular G5 LGUS992 here also, on Nougat bone stock.
Flash Not Supported By This Device.
Battery short lived, but swift to charge.
Phone powers off and won't power back on at random low battery percentages 4-20 (not zero) until plugged in to power, whereupon battery level is clearly displayed; well above zero.
US Cellular does NOT (and will not) enable the WiFi SMS/MMS this device.
Fingerprints generally NOT working; must PIN.
Guess I'll search one by one.

LG V10 VZW in foreign country

Hi, I'm planning to buy a V10 VZW to use it out of USA. So the question is if it will work GSM internationally. I've read that VZW phones are globally unlocked. I know the setting to "global" but I dunno if it will work. Anyone who use a VZW v 10 out of USA without having to call to unlock it?
Hello! I use LG V10 verizon in Europe and it works just fine, as it is supposed to work! No need for any unlock or whatsoever.

LG G8X Sprint - Convert to Canadian (Freedom Mobile)

Hello, I bought an LG G8X from USA (model # LM-G850UM) which has the Sprint firmware on it. Is it possible to convert it to the Canadian firmware and lock the bootloader after flashing it? The goal is to be able to use Wifi calling from Freedom Mobile which is not available with the current firmware. Furthermore, I want to be able to use Google Pay and Netflix if at all possible.
I did not find any links on the net to download the Canadian firmware.
I have the LMG850EMW variant in India and am facing severe issues with JIO on LTE. The network indicator keeps flipping between LTE and LTE+. I have not seen an update since March 24th. This phone has given me the worst experience so far. Unfortunately this guide seems to only work for single SIM variants.
