Question FM radio working in the 5 IV? - Sony Xperia 5 IV

Some sites say FM radio chip works in this phone, others say no FM. Anyone try nextradio or other FM radio apps? $1k is a lot to spend without knowing, And none of my local cell phone retailers have the phone for me to experiment with. Any input would be appreciated!

I can try but you need to provide the link to the app on playstore...i am unable to find any fm radio apps,they are all internet ones even tho they have fm in their name.

Note my question is for US phones. The NextRadio app is online here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nextradioapp.nextradio&hl=en_US&gl=US

Yeah its US model

Well, darn darn darn! Thank you! Motorola has an app too that works on moto g stylus 5g. Seems it'd work with the qualcom chip. But alas, I would have to find time to look for the app.

Sony's radio app from November (seems to be most recent) is here. https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/sony-...elease/fm-radio-8-1-0-4-android-apk-download/
Sony's online chat is terrible, or I'd ask them directly if the 5 IV has FM radio.
Anyone else have any luck getting FM radio on this awesome phone?

Doesnt work , it just closes itself

Thanks Viper. It's a shame Sony has abandoned their roots of over-the-air radio! My old X3V was the best phone I ever had, and it included FM radio capabilities. I very much appreciate your attempts here. I did reach out to Sony chat, and the person on the other end was "looking it up", "contacting the engineers".... blah blah blah... then ended the chat TWICE. Disappointing! Thank you again. If anyone else has managed to find an app that works, please post details!

You have to understand these agents are just random people trained to use templates as responses they hardly have any IT knowledge , i mean some do but its EXTREMELY rare. Its not sony i believe as those things tend to be outsourced and i actually know one company that probably does more then half big brands in US.

Android on Touch Pro?

Anyone got the official android os on their Touch Pro yet? I'm getting it on the 2nd and i want to port android to it immediately once i get home from the sprint store.
(by official i mean from the source code released yesterday 10/21)
I don't think it's that easy
Let us know if it worked.
I'm just wondering if anyone has done it yet, or if anyone has started, etc. I don't pretend to have sufficient knowledge to even try, so i was looking to others for help...

2nd, search before you post, there's no reason to clutter the forum with redundant redundancy of a redundant nature.
1) the wiki has like 2 pictures of a Haret bootup of the sdk rip of android, i was wondering about the g1 version android
2) Same as the above (sdk version vs. g1 version) last time i checked.
It's not like i didn't search, if anything i misunderstood some threads

What a rude answer?! Who stepped on your toe??
I love those things... that's actually why i chose that username
and it's almost like you completely ignored my last post...
Android on Touch Pro
That would be an interesting ROM. The Dream has similar spec as Raphael, and they are within half a year of each other, so it would be quite possible to run Android on Raphael. I would like to try it, once Android gets better established and I get sick and tired of WM.
Longhorn android
has anyone tried androkkid on the longhorn rom of windows mobile 6.5? Mines mad slow
what a shame to answer users like this such a pity for you man you make me sick Black93300ZX and what are you going to say about my nickname now? Eh ?!
i would like the happenings app from android or moto cliq

Apple Bluetooth Keyboard and Mouse.... Someone smart figure it out PLEASE!!!!

I can use both the apple blutooth keyboard and mouse on my galaxy nexus so it has nothing to do with them not working on "android" but rather not working on whatever drivers / kernel is used with the TFPrime... I wonder if having the ability to install AOSP roms and Kernels when they unlock the bootloader will remedy this situation... so far none of the software mentioned in any thread has assisted me in getting them to work. both pair perfectly fine with the tablet but when it comes to actual use neither the mouse or keyboard input anything.. i really need this to work while i wait for my dock to ship.. and yes it has to be apple keyboard and mouse because that is what i have laying around and dont want to buy new hardware.
Why did you start another thread about this there is already one !!

I had the same thing happen after the ICS upgrade. This worked for me before the upgrade. I don't know what that means as I haven't had a chance to dig into it.
Closing this thread - it is the same topic as the other thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1459747

Sprint Service Store broke my 3VO, incredibly slow 3G

Hey guys,
So the way this story starts out is my digitizer broke. The screen stopped responding one day and so I was like eh, I'll bring it in to get it replaced. I have the total protection plan and so it was no big deal. The guy took the screen out and put the new one in right in front of me.
As he was replacing the screen I said something about the mms messaging not working properly. I just couldn't get MMS messages anymore and when I sent them it would show them as sent but the person on the other end wouldn't get it. So he reset the profile I believe and changed maybe some other stuff server side(?). since then the phone has had TERRIBLE data speed. I mean next to useless.

I wasn't sure at first what the deal was. I reinstalled a different rom, flashed a new radio to see if that did it and it did nothing. I went back to the store to tell them they borked it, but the service guys were already gone for the night so I have to wait for tomorrow. My experience with these guys was bad before this but now it's even worse so I want to fix it myself if I can. Any guesses?
tl;dr Fix remarkably slow 3G. What can I do.
Nope, it wasnt the store, its just sprint. Those speeds seem just about right for sprint 3g.

I wish that were the truth. The first two were using wifi to make sure it worked. The rest are on 3G. In my area sprint usually flies and I tested the speed next to a few people that have sprint as well and they've been way, way higher. In some areas in my region I can get 800kbs down. No where near as slow as this.

I can't find anywhere is there S-Off for .15?

I am appalled at the total lack of coverage given by the evening echo to our latest British world champion.
I deliberately bought the echo thinking they would give more coverage than one of the nationals but alas NOT one picture and as far as I can tell not one word written about him or how he achieved getting to be world champion.
I do not follow football in any way so I don’t suppose this will be printed in the paper, but considering that today Monday 19-10-09 when I expected to see something there were 6 ? pages covering football related matters.
What I do like and love are motor sports and have been too many places and countries to watch it.
What and who am I talking about, Formula One and the new British World Champion, Jenson Button.
Anyone care to comment??

I guess our current situation is like the picture above. Will our devices be dusted ? Or will The Avengers Huawei prevail ?
Huawei and Google assured us that all current devices will enjoy continued access to Google's Framework. At the moment as in these 90 days period, we have nothing to worry about as Google will still work with Huawei in providing security patches.
So, the only issue now will be security patches, which will be delayed (not like it's on time now anyway) and the advancement to Android Q (which looks like it's totally off the menu for now).
Security patches will continue to work as Huawei mentioned and also i had a long talk with their local customer service manager here today. He assured me that all security updates will go on as per normal as they will be using sources from AOSP for the patches. Personally i feel, Huawei being a Giant, they definitely have some insiders or spies in Google and other major brands so getting the source before being announced publicly by Google seems a not as so far- fetched.
Anyway, I've used a lot of phones in the past including the S10 Plus and the P30 Pro seems to be one of the best I've used so far. Currently running software version 9.1.0.161 and most of the issues has been fixed. Colors seem so much more natural, no more stutters whilst panning in video mode, etc.
So to those who think the features outweighs the possibility of getting security updates in time, stick to your phone and don't get fed by the media as they're only fueling the current fire for attention.
Stay calm and hope Thanos Trump doesn't dust our beloved phones. :silly:
so many subjects addressing the same issue my friend, this conclusion was mentioned a gizilion times already
