Hi,
I'm wondering if there's an FM radio accessory for Samsung Galaxy S4 as the one that was made for iphone (Gigaware HD Radio Receiver), you can check it on Amazon.
This accessory connects an FM receiver to the phone while you tune the radio from a supporting app . Unfortunately, I haven't found such a thing for my S4 . I hope somebody develops this for us.
Thanks for reading my first thread.

What is the story with APT-X? I am starting to see bluetooth headphones and other "receivers" supporting this, but I am not finding any information on which phones, mp3 players, or other "transmitters" support APT-X. Can anybody shed any light on this subject?
Would like to know this as well.
No point in getting a new phone if this isn't supported, at least I will have reasonable audio quality through bluetooth if I get a headset + phone with this.

apt-X is a lossless codec for bluetooth audio, MUCH better than A2DP.
If htc (for example) want´s to pimp a phone with it, they have to pay licence fee to CSR. As there are only a few bt receiver with apt-X, they will not pay and implement it (instead they get crappy "beats")
I think, apt-X is only a kernel-driver, no hardware, but not sure about this.
If so, a kernel chef could cook some additional codec in, but this is not open source codec...
I would LOVE an apt-X enhanced bt kernel for my sensation!

Hi. I know that this post wasn't refreshed for some time but maybe I will be able to help someone. I was looking for some BT headset with ability to plug my own headphones. If you are looking good quality BT headset you may check some SONY devices. Yeah, I know... Samsung user with SONY headphones. I bought Sony SBH50. You may be also interested in two other models SBH20 and SBH52.
I have Sony SBH50 and it works perfect
FM?
So just to be sure I understand correctly -- this is asking about an FM headset due to the S4 (as opposed to, for example, the S3) lacking an FM radio? (because Samsung sucks dicks etc.)
Hello All
I hope someone can help me sort a issue I have with my pioneer appradio 4 Sph-da120. I am trying to connect my headunit with damsung galaxy s4 4.4.2 version which is rooted. I am getting all the pictures from my phone to the headunit but can not use the touch on the headunit. Please can someone tell me what i am doing wrong?
Hi !
The S4 is supposed to be compatible with 4.2.2 version only... On my side it used to work (with a lot of bugs) with my S3 under 4.3 but does not work anymore with 4.4...
This is extremely hard to make it work properly with Androïd... I put a review about the compatibilities issues I met with the Appradio 4 on a famous car retailer website and they finally changed the description of this radio to be dedicated to Carplay...
In the end I cannot use mirroring today with my S3... And Samsung is about to launch Androïd auto... Hope that a firmware update will allow mirroring someday with this nice looking car radio.

Does anyone know if the SM-G930UZKAXAA model of the Samsung Galaxy S7 has FM radio support or not? I've only found one review of someone mentioning FM, and the person said it was disabled; however, the review was quite old, and I believe the feature was supposed to be added retroactively via an OTA firmware update.
Thanks in advance!

I don't have this device myself and this is a tricky question to answer...
The SM-G930U does have an FM Chip that requires a Modification (Firmware or other) to enable the FM Chip.
This device has the Snapdragon 820 that has an integrated FM Radio receiver and since the FM Chip isn't activated, it has no internal antenna but, if you could activate the chip, this device can use a wired headphones plugged in as the antenna. You would also need to have an FM Radio app like NextRadio to use it as well.
I don't know why or how they decided not to activate the FM Chip but, I can only think of this as a Samsung decision or even a Carrier decision (or both).
What can you do now?
Your best bet is to ask within the following Q&A thread that's specific to your device for some member guidance.
