FM Radio solution for 521

[Kevin N Smith]

Have a few questions...

I need FM Radio working on my 521... What is the best option?

I have GDR1 Portico on the 521... Is it possible to flash gdr2 on the phone? If so, how?

As a second option, are there any 3rd party apps that will allow me to stream 97.5 the fanatic?

You need gdr2 which nokia/tmobile has delayed the update..you can check with ncs or nsu..see software & firmware release thread we have a download for gdr2/amber if you can't update via ncs or nsu

Phili "The Fanatic" ? There are plenty of 3rd party apps for free download a few and see.

Sign up with T Mobile for Amber/GRD2 and FM
but MS has temporarily suspended it for your phone...
So you can download Nokia Software Updater for Retail from here http://jkorondy.com/NokiaLumia920/Nokia_Software_Updater_For_Retail_3.0.8.exe
and see if it's available. It will be 3046.0000.1328.2024 if it matches what you currently have don't download it. Be sure to back up your phone first
