[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cellinterface:
Hi All,

I have a Moto G 2014 (titan) and have been using CM for a while. Last month I just moved to USA and joined T-mobile. It was good but expensive. So I switched to a family plan of AT&T last week. However, I can text and call, but could not access internet through AT&T cellular network. Custom services only tried to change SIM card and change APN settings (we tried a lot of APN settings). But none of them works. (Of course it works when you put the SIM card in another phone). So after googling for a while I guess the problem is with the "modem" firmware? I am not sure though, 'cause I am able to set APN. I hope you guys can direct me to the right direction. I was using a version of CM13 last month when I am with T-mobile. It worked fine. I did not do any updates when I switched to AT&T. However I just updated to cm-13.0-20160906-NIGHTLY. The problem persists. BTW it now just shown the signal but no sign of 3G, however, I do not remember if it is suppose to shown that. Does that mean I am not connecting to the 3G network at all?

It would also be real helpful if you can direct me to learning resources of cellular networks and how to troubleshoot such problem. For example, I found myself have no clue of the answer to the following question (excuse me if they are silly questions) and could not find an answer by google,

Is the APN settings related to the type of hardware of firmware that I am using? Does a specific hardware/firmware works in one APN but not another?

Thanks a lot!

Hey guys! I solved the problem by just erase modemst1&2 without install new modem firmware. Could anyone tell me why?

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] chipworkz:
I have never cared about an FM Radio on my phone. It is very rare I even listen to FM in my car. I pretty much stream everything I listen too. It is one of those things that if it is important to you then it sucks but I assume most people don't care about it.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] avorlen:
You should not justify a phone's fail, the lack of FM Radio, if the phone is lacking of it. Stream is useless. It is not a real radio. It is exposed to the internet availability, money, data plan, etc. It also consumes much more battery power than the FM radio. FM radio will always be better.

But it's still unclear whether LG V20 has FM Radio or not. So still, there is hope. (Same is true for the barometer sensor.) Maybe only the american version won't have FM Radio, to force people to spend money on internet data plan.

Reply from LG on the topic:

"In response to your concern, an FM chip may not be included in every phone, but it is dependent on who the phone is being made for. We don't believe the US996 has a FM chip. In that case, you would need to download a radio application. We hope you understand."

Does the US996 not have the same Qualcomm silicon as the other V20s? It seems to me that the LG rep doesn't understand.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] jraines1:
They understand perfectly... I'm fighting this same battle, and have been talking about it over on Android Central. Basically, LG & Verizon are playing a "blame each other" game.

I have the Verizon version, and because they wouldn't give a straight answer, I have also ordered the unlocked version. However, in the meantime, I discovered FM radio doesn't work on the unlocked version either.

This is where LG blows it. First they say, "Blame Verizon, they didn't buy in..." OK, so I now bought the UN-locked, NON-subsidized version... and it still doesn't work... now who do they blame???

Here's what NextRadio says when I asked them about the unlocked version...

*************************************************

Scott Elskus (NextRadio)

Nov 18, 9:32 AM EST

Hello,

We use the NAB API's configuration to communicate with the FM chip; they do not on this device. The unlocking we are speaking of is unlocking the FM chip to allow 3rd party integration. An unlocked phone will only work if the manufacturer added the required software library when the phone was made. Examples are HTC, the Moto G and Moto E. Those phones work on any carrier, or without a carrier (unlocked). We hope other manufacturers follow suit in the future.

NextRadio requires that the FM chip in the phone be activated, and a software library is present in the phone's operating system in order to control the FM chip. While your device has an activated FM chip, your wireless carrier does not include the software library, so NextRadio is unable to use it.

You can try to reach out to the Carriers but its not much they can do on an un,locked phone.

Hope this helps!

Best,

Scott, Support Analyst

Can someone post a link to the V20 FM apk for everyone to "try"?
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Ronich69:
Hello all. I think that I've figured it out... The V20 has different model numbers that can be ordered. The LG V20 can be compared to a Dodge Charger.

Then... The "Model Number" (as listed in the settings) in my case, VS995 can be compared to the base or RT model.

It's not a matter of Verizon "blocking" the FM feature but that Verizon has chosen to supply it's customers with a model that does not include the FM chip.

Two questions I would have for Verizon.

1. Do they offer the other model versions via special order?

2. If I have a model version with the FM chip, would they allow me to activate it?

All Verizon phones now don't have FM chip. I think it's because if you can Karen to the radio you won't use data and they don't want that
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Shadow Assassin:
The fm radio activation depends solely on the carriers. At&t did in fact have the fm radio function activated in their lg v20s. Thats why they cost more.

---------- Post added at 02:35 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:28 AM ----------

They all have the same chip. The fm radio function is with half the other features like bluetooth, wifi, nfc, ect. Its all on the SOC that snapdragon chip. But carriers have to pay extra to have the fm activated.

Thats why its been pulled alot. And while it is still built in, no you cant activate it when rooted as its hard coded into the chip. You need full access to the entire chips infrastructure to activate it. It sits out side of the linux firmware. You have to have the tools that programs these chips if you want to activate the radio.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] speculatrix:
I'm sure that most phones have the FM radio hardware, being built in to the chips.

Most hardware features need firmware blobs loaded into the chipset, e.g. Bluetooth (see how the AptX codec was copied off), Wi-Fi, LTE/UMTS DSPs...

You also need the driver in the kernel plus some user space libraries.

For the radio to be active, you might need the app, plus system support libraries, kernel module and maybe a firmware blob.

I'm happy to poke around in my rooted H990DS for these.

us996 fm radio

Has anyone else tried this for US996 to enable fm radio?
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] ozkaya:
us996 has FM radio!

OK, on further research I flashed NATF MegaROM version 3.3 for AT&T on my US996 and got the FM radio working. This time, the SIM card and GSM service already worked (I had to add the APN manually). It was almost a daily driver apart from the fact that the cameras were switched (front camera comes up as rear and rear as front). Well, this at least proves that US996 has the FM chip active and running and a custom ROM is possible.
