FM Tuner coming to Nokia Lumia 920

[flair77]

Maybe its not that big a deal for many, but for me it is.

Always knew it had the hardware, it was just a question of utilizing it through hardware (source: Nokia Lumia 920 HAS an FM Tuner, It’s Just Not On. : My Nokia Blog)

Thankfully now, it is confirmed: Windows Phone 8 update to activate FM radios, enable double-tap to wake Lumia 920 | The Verge

Please change topic name to FM Tuner, not Transmitter - there is a difference!

Yeah this is a little confusing. Although it would be nice if the transmitter was built in as well.

 

[JaimitoFrog]

the double tap to wake is cooler function

Just wondering, is it the same for 820... I mean the FM Radio stuff.... Any ideas??

Don't care about the actual tuner, I really only want the transmitter. The hardware is capable of that too..

is FM tuner available for lumia 822 also?? any idea?

 

[Tempest790]

That's cool! I'm glad to know the phone actually has one built in. I do wish that Microsoft and Nokia would support HD radio like the Zune did. More radio channels and digital music was a win-win.

Do we need a special headphone, or is it just in the phone already?

 

[LumiaDream]

@Benny yes it is the same for the 820 as it has the same chip.
@Ramon the FM tuner would work only if you connect a set of headphones into the headphone jack, the type of headphones does not matter.

Alright! a Nokia update, and now a WP8 update too. Sweet. Keep em coming

[flair77]

Dunno how many more months till we have the FM Transmitter (which is all I want).

SO that article is a month old, we've seen a minor update since then, and no double tap to wake or FM radio yet. Hmm...
