[Nokia 8 Questions & Answers] TorpodeBaas:
Hey asikis!

i got the app from a friend from US. he installed it, and send me the app via google drive.

i force installed it by enabling 'allow installation of apps from unknown sources' in 'security'

And whenever i tried to open, it crashes.
[Nokia 8 Questions & Answers] asikis13:
Hmm. Can you alternative download it from sites like apkmonk or apksum? I cannot copy links here, I am not yet allowed.

and then transfer it via USB to phone and install it? But first un-install existing version from your device.

Maybe it makes some difference?
[Nokia 8 Questions & Answers] TorpodeBaas:
Hey,

i downloaded from apk monk http://www.apkmonk.com/download-app/com.nextradioapp.nextradio/5_com.nextradioapp.nextradio_2017-09-12.apk/

and installed it, this time app installed, but when i tried to open, i got following screen.

Btw, i uninstalled the previous Next radio app (one i got from my US friend) the very first time when app crashed while opening

when i tried to subscribe to their updates... i got registration screen, where there is no option as UK in the list of countries.

Loll. :P :P

I miss my FM so much, that i carry my Old Xperia ZR with me, just to listen to FM.
[Nokia 8 Questions & Answers] asikis13:
If you select another European country, e.g. Germany or Italy, will the app continue and let you tune manually to a frequency? Or even in that case you get the screen that device is not compatible?

I remember when I installed last year the Next Radio app (via side loading) to my HTC A9 (that has FM radio built in but its own app was crap) it also asked me to select my country. Greece was not available so I selected Italy or Germany or something like this. Maybe I selected USA, do not recall now. After that step I was able to manually tune to a frequency e.g. 100. The only issue I had was that if I wanted to tune to 101,8 it was not possible as the app only accepted odd number after comma e.g. 101,7. So i tuned to 101,7 and then press the arrow to go to 101,8 and was working like this fine.

Can you try again and provide your test results?
[Nokia 8 Questions & Answers] TorpodeBaas:
After Installing, when i open the app the only screen i get is the Screenshot_B which i attached in my previous reply.

When i press the Sign up for updates button, at that time i get the Screenshot_A asking me to put, my name, email id, and country
[Nokia 8 Questions & Answers] asikis13:
Damn Nokia then. We cannot do anything, at this time. Nokia or Next Radio (?) has to do something to make it work.....

I have also contacted Next Radio company asking them if app is compatible with Nokia 8 and they have replied the following:

Nokia 8 is not listed to our compatible devices list. You can always check our supported device page here http://nextradioapp.com/supported-devices/

So we cannot do anything at this point... Its a shame that Nokia has removed this option from Nokia 8......Maybe we can bomb their Facebook page with this request :)

I've started on twitter

[Nokia 8 Questions & Answers] TorpodeBaas:
I got a tweet from a person stating that he is going to buy the Nokia 128GB version and it has FM

https://twitter.com/Hinuk_Mattila/status/914566817955373056.

I've asked that person if thats true, so far i haven't got any reply from him
[Nokia 8 Questions & Answers] asikis13:
From his statement I understand that he also wishes he gets FM radio function. Not that the 128GB has FM radio.
[Nokia 8 Questions & Answers] TorpodeBaas:
Ah okay !
[Nokia 8 Questions & Answers] asikis13:
Have you got any response in your tweet from HMD or anybody else? I have it sitting in the sealed box and only reason if the lack of FM radio....
[Nokia 8 Questions & Answers] TorpodeBaas:
Hi Asikis13,

Unfortunately no,

i haven't received any reply from not even HMD and not even the Twitter guy.

I even created a new thread in Nokia 8 community forum (via the Nokia Support app)
[Nokia 8 Questions & Answers] asikis13:
Hmmm...ok. Another thing was thinking is if we can find the NOKIA 6-5-3 stock FM radio app .apk and install it in NOKIA 8 to test.

Any idea where to find it?
[Nokia 8 Questions & Answers] TorpodeBaas:
Thats exactly what i am doing !!! trying to find the Nokia 3,5 or 6 ROM/Firmware from somewhere,

so that i can extract the FM radio app from it.

Or if someone has that, can someone get it out via using ShareIt app?

I tried to do the same with my Xperia ZR phone- share the Stock FM radio app. But in ShareIt it wasn't visible

:(

i'll keep you posted, in case im able to get FM app out of Nokia 3,5, or 6
[Nokia 8 Questions & Answers] TorpodeBaas:
i've created a thread in Nokia 6 forums, asking anyone if can share with me their Stock FM app

https://xdaforums.com/nokia-6/help/share-nokia-6-fm-radio-app-please-t3686224

keeping my fingers crossed
[Nokia 8 Questions & Answers] asikis13:
I have NOKIA 6 (my wife's).

Can you give me instructions how to extract the app?
[Nokia 8 Questions & Answers] CazeW:
You're not going to get the radio working with just an app. Even if the hardware for the FM radio was there, it might be lacking drivers and it's most likely disabled at least on kernel level.
[Nokia 8 Questions & Answers] asikis13:
Probably this is the case. But it worth's trying :) if we can get Nokia 6 stock FM app .apk
[Nokia 8 Questions & Answers] asikis13:
Unfortunately I have bad news. I have a contact inside HMD and asked about the case. Response was that NOKIA 8 cannot support FM radio because the driver needed (decoder driver in SW level) has been skipped from QC. So we will not get FM Radio on Nokia 8.....Or at least there are the plans for now....
[Nokia 8 Questions & Answers] asikis13:
I also got the following reply in gsmarena:

"I think that can be done by going in the testing mode. *#*#4636#*#*. Or something like this. On mIA1 you can use it like that. Though the app is basic it still works."

Could you try this in your Nokia 8 TorpodeBaas ?
[Nokia 8 Questions & Answers] obi-lan:
I know there is NextRadio App but it says Nokia 8 (HDM Global TA-1004) is not compatible.
[Nokia 8 Questions & Answers] hinuk:
Achievement unlocked - receive (small) internet fame, due the language barrier and Twitter 140 character limit.

Yay! me!

Sadly, what I actually meant was that if the 128gb model had FM-radio functionality, it would make it perfect.

I can however test it out today, if my phone actually arrives today. It should have arrived yesterday, but apparently it decided to chill out just about 300km south of my location.

at one of the shorting facilities of my local post office.

Edit should have read the whole thread before posting this.

So no use to test this out if the drivers are not present.

however if it indeed is possible to just do the QC testing in-house, and then issue update and enable the function.

Then there is still a slight change that they will do it, or after they unlock the bootloader would it be possible to get it working with a custom rom or something?

If you can extract the FM radio app using ShareiT app on your wife's mobile and then try installing it on Nokia 8, or share it with me?
[Nokia 8 Questions & Answers] TorpodeBaas:
Hi asikis13,

i've explored the menu under *#*#4636#*#* and as you can see in the attached screen shots, i've reached a list, and as you can see it says

Select radio band mode with Europe, US, Japan, Aus, Aus2 as list.

I don't know if that will help.

Can you be specific as to what to tweak or enable in testing menu?
[Nokia 8 Questions & Answers] asikis13:
Hello. As soon as you get your NOKIA 8 128 GB version can you please inform us if it has FM radio app? If not let me know and I can send you a link to download the FM radio .apk from NOKIA 6 to test.

Hello TorpodeBaas. I have sent you with a private message the link to DL the NOKIA 6 FM app .apk that I extracted from NOKIA 6 using ShareIt app.

Kindly test and update us please.

I can tell you that it sadly doesn't have FM-radio app at all, so if it has hardware for it then hopefully hmd activate it in a future update.

do you STILL own the Nokia 8 128 gb or did you only test it...?
[Nokia 8 Questions & Answers] Juheksi:
Spirit2 app may work if you root the phone. But rooting voids warranty if you are able to do that. HMD is considering to make phone rooting easily possible anyway so let´s see... At your own risk you can try root the phone and try NextRadio or Spirit2...

Edit: Even rooting Nokia 8 seems to be hard even if you are avare of warranty.
[Nokia 8 Questions & Answers] Juheksi:
Finally I got the answer from HMD issuing FM radio. Previous answers where only that you need internet connection to listen radio...

And now the answer was "We will try to investigate this case further and, if possible, in next update, this may change."
[Nokia 8 Questions & Answers] itsmemario:
This sounds like a plan. :D

Would love to have FM radio on this device.

Best google results I could find today, about FM radio on the Nokia 8 :

Yes it does have FM !

https://www.onlymobiles.com/mobile/nokia-8/questions/does-nokia-8-has-fm-radio

No, it does not have FM !

https://droidchart.com/de/nokia/nokia-8-ta-1012-3525

;D
[Nokia 8 Questions & Answers] Juheksi:
Yes... Snapdragon 835 is capability to tune FM frequensies but the phone software needs access to root to use it. HMD is considering to root access for Nokia 8 and that might be the case because that answer...

For examble Spirit2 can be installed to device but tuning frequens it gives a error that says it needs access to root...

But if HMD decides to open root, there will be FM app also. Hope...

How to Add more Tiles to the Quick Settings Header [No Root]

https://www.xda-developers.com/add-...gs-header-google-oneplus-sony-phones-no-root/

adb devices
adb shell settings put secure sysui_qqs_count 7

default N is 5

reboot phone

Quick Settings Header x8 shown in image below

Apps to add custom Quick Tiles, only install one at a time

Nougat/Oreo Quick Settings (very good utility, satisfies 90% of my quick settings requirements)

reading mode/black & white/monochromacy = oreo/nougat quick settings

3g setting = Nougat/Oreo Quick Settings (Cellular data type), shortcutter (yes), tile extension (activity>mobile network>data roam settings)

battery saver = lineage, oreo/nougat quick settings

advanced power menu = Nougat/Oreo Quick Settings (Reboot)

ring mode = Nougat/Oreo Quick Settings (Ringer Mode)

camera = Nougat/Oreo Quick Settings (Camera)

Tile Extension (works for adding SYSTEM PROFILE to Quick Settings)

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gunny.bunny.tilemedia

- add Shortcut tile, then use ETC to select System Profile. it works!!! (this is a SORELY MISSED feature in Nougat & many custom roms)

Shortcutter (have many more custom Quick Settings Tiles, including black/white screen - save battery during standby)

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.leedroid.shortcutter&hl=en

LeeDrOiD Tweaks (optional, but have some nifty features)

Tweaks won't do much for you guys as most of the mods are built into my ROM.

But Shortcutter is very popular on ZenFone :)
[Zenfone 2 Laser General] senpaidev:
I use this app for pretty much all my nougat based tweaks. It requires root though. It has options to customize the number of quick settings tiles and does add couple of useful ones such as immersive mode, night mode and others.

Hello, I have a rooted, unlocked Samsung Galaxy S5 -SM-G900V. I want to update to Marshmallow 6.0 or higher and keep the root and unlock or easily add those after I update to 6.0. I have downloaded the Samsung usb driver onto my laptop and Odin3_v3.09 (however, I have read different recommendations and am confused which version I should use). I tried to find firmware to download from sammobile.com/firmwares but when I type in my phone it doesn't recognize it. 1. What is a simple way to update to 6.0 and keep a root and unlock? 2. Which version of Odin3 should I use? 3. What it is the list of things I need to download to do it? Thank you

Scroll down and follow jrkruse's great very clear instructions. However, before you start make sure Reactivation lock under Settings --> Security is turned off. You have to sign into a Samsung account for this to work. If you forget that step you'll get stuck at the 13th step and have to reimage with stock again. to disable it.

for my not_unlockable bootloader, the EMMC_11_ Root S5_QB2_PB1.zip contained a folder, an MD5 file, and 2 zip files. I checked for your unlockable bootloader, and found much the same; hope this helps. I copied those to an SD card, and continued from there.
[Android General] Bross_:
Hi! I have a specific trouble, searched in Internet and I finally decided to ask here. I hope someone can give me some "illumination" to this...

I have an old FreedomPop sim in Spain (3G only). It works with Orange 3G in my town (the "official" mobile network is Yoigo 3G, but there isn't here, so Orange cover it in its place). The problem is that the carrier set the SIM up wrongly and it "believes" that Movistar is an available mobile network for data, but it doesn't (FreedomPop had contract with them at the beginning, but not anymore, as far as I know).

So, before I went to a town with a Yoigo 3G network, it connected sometimes to Orange, sometimes to Movistar. They never appear together in the mobile networks section in my Android when I look them up: it's just Movistar, Movistar and Vodafone, or just Orange. If I'm lucky, it catches Orange; if not, it connects to Movistar (so no data at all, just emergency calls).

So, after I went to that Yoigo 3G town, my cell phone never catches Orange anymore. FreedomPop offered a free SIM change to us users (with LTE speed), but with worst contract conditions, so I would like to keep this one.

My question is: is there any way to "say" to the cell phone that ignore the SIM info about "it's ok to connect to the Movistar mobile network"? I tried tons of times to find it in the mobile networks section, but Orange doesn't appear (I have another cell phone here that requires Orange and it's always connected)

I have a Sony Xperia Neo V (mt11i) with a manually flashed Android 4.0.4 (official). Any help will be appreciated.

Cheers!

I thought the note 7 was the best phone I've ever owned. Then I bought the s8+. I was very pleased by the phone's esthetics. It was a beautiful phone, but after jumping to the note 8. I have to say Samsung hit it out of the ball park with this one. Not only is it is beautiful phone to look at but the performance is amazing. I thought that 2 extra gigs wasn't going to make a difference but I was wrong. With the extra 2 gigs and the software upgrade it definitely the best phone to date. ☺

Still getting used to it, but it's a nice phone for sure. So much to do and getting addicted to the S-Pen and all it can do. Really digging some of the colorbook apps. Has without question the best screen to date I've used.

With that said, loved my Mate 9 and easily my favorite phone of all time and I've had every flag ship phone known to date . Just sold it and man do I already miss key things....like the battery life! That phone was an absolute beast! That and the form factor.

Again, it's only been a short while with the n8 and I am sure this will grow on me saving any silly situations. Hoping the battery life gets better for sure.

The Samsung Note 8 is the Swiss Army knife of phones: just a beautiful, feature-packed monstrosity of fun and functionality. I purchased mine from Samsung Direct and received a $300 discount for trading in my trusty LG G4 and got a free Gear 360 to boot. I have an LG V20 to cover the wide angle thing while my Note's dual camera set up nicely covers the zoom shots. This is just an all around great piece of technology and I'm so glad I purchased it. Hats off to Samsung.

As for me, I love my Note 8. I have read complaints about the fingerprint scanner, but it's been fine for me ( I dont have small dainty hands - lol). People need to understand there is no perfect phone - there will always be complaints). Sure, the Note 9 is out, and it may incrementally be more powerful, but for the money, it's hard to beat the Note 8. And, yes, I use the S-pen a lot (again, I don't have dainty hands). I admit to being a little biased because I have used various iterations of the Note family, but for me, it's been the one phone that has done well for me #teamgalaxy
