I've searched around and only found that it DOES have one, but no other site mentions that and I can't find anything that says it doesn't.
If we have it, then how do I use it?
inb4 get bluetooth car stereo... stock radio, no bt, and $150 for custom mount

You are right, all One X's have the FM tuner but the AT&T version is missing the software component. To get around this you need to root your One X and copy FM_Radio.apk to /system/app. After that the FM Radio app shows up in the drawer and starts without any issues.
You can get the apk here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=25636866&postcount=2
Just want to clarify, you are referring to the FM tuner, not a transmitter, correct?
Radio, yes. Transmitter, no.

fm transmitter
SOOOOOOOOOOO many Nokia phones have FM transmitters, not just tuners, but transmitters. so you basically sit in ur car and put songs on ur phone and play them through the fm transmitter through your car radio. isnt that awesome! its like a basic thing in nokia now, most if not all nokia phones come with it. including the pureview 808, which has a 41 mega pixel camera sensor btw

Also, can't we all agree at this point that the quality, reliability, and functionality of audio streaming via bluetooth has relegated FM transmission to sort of useless.
Also, you will notice all of those Nokia phones with FM transmitters are not available in the United States where the FCC has very strict guidelines about FM transmission.
Put this thread back to sleep!

Lol, ok you win. I was wrong. It is useful if you don't own a Nokia N8 and useless if you do! Right?

As subject indicates, I have a Samsung SGH-T959V. I'm running T-Mobile Gingerbread 2.3.6 (stock) that was released in November 2011.
I'm in the market for a Bluetooth receiver for the car but as of this moment I've found *zero* Bluetooth receivers that list the SGH-T959V in their compatibility lists. I've looked at Sony (e.g. MEX-BT2900), JVC/Kenwood, Alpine, and so forth, and not a single one of these Bluetooth receivers list the SGH-T959V! What?!
Also, I'm looking for a Bluetooth receiver that costs no more than $250. I don't want/need something super awesome/super expensive, just a receiver that supports both sending audio and handling calls via Bluetooth. If the SGH-T959V is supported by one of the more expensive receivers I'd be interested to know about it but probably wouldn't buy. ;-)
Looking at the (listed) spec for Bluetooth on both the SGH-T959V and on all of the receivers I've mentioned I don't see why the SGH-T959V wouldn't be compatible but I'd rather not spend a couple hundred dollars on a Bluetooth receiver only to use it for its aux port (which I already have in the existing factory-installed radio).
Would love to hear recommendations about what's worked for you and your experiences!
Hi
Maybe I misunderstood you, but
all new phones support BT EDR 2.1 DSP. The exact model should not be listed on BT device, rather the technology standard should be specified on phone spec. I personally use 3 different receivers with T959V and they all work flawlessly.

Thanks for your response!
You are correct that the technology standard is specified on both the phone and the receiver and they DO match up. What bugs me is that Sony (for example) also provides a compatibility chart and the SGH-T959V does not appear on it. :-(
Which receiver(s) do you use in your car?
I ended up testing on a Sony M series and it worked great. Just had to calibrate the bt first. Phone and Google Music via bt were both good as were controls on head unit.

I found a thread on the OnePlus forums that states there is no mention of aptX support for the One. I know that has something to do with Bluetooth streaming but that's pretty much all I know. Does this mean the OPO may not be able to stream music via Bluetooth in my car? Is it more dependent on my car's hardware? (I've got a 2011 Hyundai Sonata, for the record, and I've tried to google it with no success.) If it can't, even at $350, I'll have to pass. That's a non-negotiable for me. Can someone with more knowledge on the subject please chime in? Thanks.

Aptx is a new codec for Bluetooth audio. Most devices don't even support it right now. As long as as A2DP and AVRCP are supported you should be fine. I don't think cm supports aptx but aptx isn't related to whether or not you can steam music in your car.
Sent from my One using Tapatalk
Yeah. Probably even your sonata sound system doesn't support aptx codec.
A bit more info.
http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/AptX
I would be curious though if the oneplus one supports aptx. I'm thinking probably not.
Sent from my One using Tapatalk
According to the Oneplus Forums it doesn't. However my 3 year old HTC One X does, so APTX definitely isn't that new.
This is going to make me rethink about whether I actually want this phone or not....
Google isn't bringing up any recent information on this topic here, other than a general consensus that the opo *probably* doesn't have aptx. But some mentions that it might be add able? Any ideas on this? Or further information that my Google-fu missed?
I didn't really care before, but I've got a high end Bluetooth speaker coming in the mail, it supports aptx, and so I'm curious thanks all!

That's pretty cool! Yeah the Bluetooth should work fine for most things, but what's being discussed now is higher quality Bluetooth, a special codec called 'aptx'. Bluetooth should work fine without it, but just standard quality only.
To clarify things Herr.
Aptx is a propyitary codec by CSR. BT devices supporting aptx also work without.
However Theres a major difference in audio lag and quality.
Aptx is way supirrior over regular BT IF your sound device is good enought or you wanna watch movies.
On cheap speakers you probably won't hear much difference. On high end headphones you will never go back to regular BT once you had aptx.
That said only a handful of manufacturer support it. Also cyanogen doesn't.
Its not only software but also hardware.
BTW its not just a codec running over the a2dp its a replacement of a2dp
It has almost not lag so watching movies sint a pia and the lowlatency aptx variant has practically no lag
Aptx was initially for pro. BT devices like wireless mics and monitor phones on a production level (studio, concert ...) and sadly there's no alternative right now even close to its performance

Generally it's implemented in software on the phone (or PC) and hardware in the receiver (headphones, car, etc.) really depends on the processing power available on either end. With that in mind it is technically feasible to deploy support to existing phone, it just needs to be licensed and coded into the platform.
There seems to be aptX working on Oneplus One but you have to use Lineage 14

Hey guys.
Is there any way to gain Over the Air FM functionality back on the xperia xz?
Xperias cheaper than the xz have it but sony decided to remove an essential feature from a pricier device... And they wonder why they aren't making profits.
They have removed a whole bunch of features from the XZ unfortunately. Not much you can do about a hardware change like that.
Can always listen to the online version or via an app.
Not sure it's removed, just suppressed. I believe all the Qualcomm chips have this functionality built in. I realize this doesn't solve the problem, just adding to the conversation.

With the development being what it is, there isn't really much that can be done about it. Online radio isn't really pocket friendly. Data plans ain't cheap here.
I have been reading wih interest that some phones have a hidden fm radio chip that they turn off in favour of internet streaming.
Does anyone know the raw specifications if the Mate 9 has one and if if could be enabled and used?
I really miss that capability.
AFAIK, mate 9 has no fm radio chip.
