One such system improvement that T-Mobile users discovered is the activation of the radio receiver on the device. The Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 processor inside the Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge integrates an FM chip, but T-Mobile – like many other carriers – disabled it, at least initially.
The "correct" question is: Does the Exynos 8 Octa 8890 processor integrates an FM chip too?

Really???

The quad-core 7570 is the first Exynos chip to have all wireless tech, including Cat.4 LTE, WiFi, Bluetooth, FM and GNSS (GPS), built in to a single chip so why wouldn't the Exynos 8 Octa 8890 SoC have an integrated FM receiver ?

First time ever I am jealous to not have a snapdragon variant then. I had no idea.

Yes, for this one sometimes feel jealous. But the snapdragon's type is also more envious feel to the exynos because the community is crowded about cusrom and all modifications

[Q] Is the octa-core LTE or 3G?

Seems to be a lot of confusion whether the octa-core version will have LTE so if anyone could advise that would be much appreciated and for reference the qualcomm S600 definitely has LTE.
i have read that octa dont have lte in usa because qualcomm has patents on lte chips in there..

If that were the case they should still be able to licence under FRAND, since it's a standards essential patent, right? If not, that's quite a monopoly on the US LTE market. Plus, what would that mean for Tegra4 devices? At any rate, I'm so sick of hearing about patents in the consumer electronics (specifially smartphones) sector. It's out of hand and needs dealth with properly.
Might of found the answer.

BUT, I don't think that band 5 is used by anyone here in the US. Band 5 is used by Philipines/S.Korea.

Just to clarify, International S4's will have LTE.
US ones have quad core snapdragons probably just for supply issues, like last year (the Note 2 is exynos, quadcore (same processor as the S3) and had LTE).

I heard rumours that the octa-core international one bound for the UK would be 3G only and only the quad core S600 would have LTE enabled which seemed very odd to me.

I am pretty sure they will all be LTE enabled, we will wait and see.
i cant imagine them releasing a phone thats not LTE in the states.....that would be the worst move in the history of phones....
Germany will get the 600 too. Apparently all the markets that have 4G LTE won't get the octa.
In Indonesia get octa and 600 and the news says that both of them get LTE :screwy::screwy:

Just because it HAS LTE, doesn't mean it's the RIGHT LTE bands. Keep that in mind. Also, Note 2 does not have a 5 series processor.... It's an A9, not A15....

Quote from another forum:
But there was some confusion about wich version we would get here in Scandinavia so NordicHardware got in touch with Samsung and the answer was that all LTE versions will use Snapdragon S600 and the 3G versions will use Exynos 5410. But they wont be releasing the 3G version here since everyone has moved onto LTE, im assuming the situation will be similar in other parts of Europe aswell

So, who will be getting exynos? What's the point 3g version have only exynos?
I want Exynos. Here we got LTE for 4 towns buts its not covered all. Beside that they are charging to enable LTE 5-10€ and giving you 1GB LTE speed, after that 64kb rofl

Why Exynos not compatible with LTE(USA)

Why can't Samsung make one chipset that supports for all countries. I don't have a great knowledge in chip designing. But i am always curious to know why different chipsets are needed for LTE. Why Exynos is not compatible with LTE (USA LTE). How is the scenario with iphone, iphone 5 is in India too. Does it have a different chipset from USA's ?
Processer problem? or not

Well.. I don't think that problem is into Main chipset.
The galaxy s3's Exynos 4412 processer supports LTE. but samsung released by 3G version. I don't know why is itand also, samsung released korean galaxy s4 version by LTE with Exynos again
_______________________________
P.s
(Korean Version of Galaxy S3 gets Exynos4412 LTE/2GB RAM/and also LTE Conn.)
Sorry for bad english
Also with Note2 , Samsung launched with One Exynos processer chipset worldwide, same phone, just different modem and radio files.
I thought Samsung did sortout LTE band issue.
But but, Samsung dissapointed me with snapdragon qualcomm chipset in Canada again.

I think it s about the Trust from Americans
i m not american but i trust on Snapdragon (from USA) more than Exynos (& Cortex from Korea and UK ...) !!!
OR
maybe Samsung try to behave WISER in US
step by step and better performance
:good:
Samsung will do the same sh*t with the S4 as they did with the S3.
3 months after releasing the S3 i9300 in Australia they released the S3 4g i9305. Helps boost sales to suckers like me.
This time they'll probably release the i9505 lte snapdragon version then a few months down the track claim they found a way to get 4g working on the Octa and probably release a i9510.

Was this exynos lte variant released on all the major carriers? More in particular was it released for at&t?
exynos for note 2, im guessing they were able to fit in a LTE chip due to the size of the phone 5.5
since the s4 keeps the s3 form factor, plus almost 1mm thinner, there was no way they couldve included lte with the exynos.
Plus they are having manufacturing issues with the exynos, so by fall when the note 3 launches, it shouldnt be a issue.

Not sure but I believe in the US they stayed the same dual core models. In some overseas markets where the international model was sold they then introduced the quad core lte model (i9305).

Do I have the Exynos or Snapdragon?

it is my understanding that the US has the snapdragon Note 3. However, my model number is SM-N900A. I got it from Walmart here in Hawaii. I hear this is the Exynos variant. I want the snapdragon, should I take it back and hope to get the correct one?
The 900A is US at&t, it's snapdragon. There is no Exnyos one sold here in the US at normal retail outlets.

Look here http://pdadb.net/index.php?m=specs&id=4937&c=samsung_sm-n900a_galaxy_note_3_lte_32gb, if you would have used Google you would have found this too It allready has the Qualcomm Snapdragon chip appearently. Install CPU-Z from Play for hardware info.

I did google it. I came up with this "First off, let’s talk about the two different models that the Note III is going to be shipping in, the SM-900 and the SM-9005. The SM-900 is going to feature 3GB RAM and the Samsung Exynos 5420, which is of course, Octa-Core. Meanwhile, the SM-9005 is packing the same 3GB of RAM but a Quad-Core Snapdragon 800 instead of the Exynos. "
But thanks for the CPU Z, it does infact say snapdragon.
Exynos 3g network and Snapdragon for 4g LTE network, Exynos mostly available in SE Asia where 4g not yet popular.

Note 3 galileo support

Only equipment with a multi-system chip can use the signal emitted by the Galileo satellites in addition to the conventional GPS. If we refer to this list of compatible hardware, only two phones ("Aquaris X5 Plus" from BQ, and "Mate 9" from Huawei) are equipped with such chips.
Older smartphones with Mediatek MT6595 have a multi-system GNSS. They are able to use Galileo
Snapdragon 820 chip is referred as compatible. Check usegalileo website.

Why cant I install nextradio on my s7 edge?

Hi!
I want to listen radio from s7 edge with out internet connection using headphone cable as radio antenna. I heard nextradio can do that.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k8qG2sWX3OE
And here it lists s7 edge as supported device http://nextradioapp.com/supported-d...c=168693438.1.1493546069131&__hsfp=1591936024
But when I go to google play app it says my device is in compatible. When I manually download apk it installs but does not work. I have tried few other apps but they also dont work. One wanted root access (not sure why, I guess it wanted to load some drivers?) but it also didnt work even after I granted it access.
I have android 7 installed on my device.
Any advise how to get FM radio work on my device? And why it seems to work for others and not for me?
Which variant if S7 do you have? Snapdragon or Exynos?
FM radio only support on Snapdragon variant.

Exynos., I am from europe. But why? Is it some hardware/kernel/configuration issue or is there some missing chip? Since it uses headphone cable as antenna, shouldnt it be device independent?

Missing hardware. On snapdragon, fm chip is baked into the chipset. So any phone with snapdragon chipset will have fm radio built in (but might be disabled depend on OEM).
Exynos chipset however, don't have this chip built in.
Also headphone cable is more like an extension of the antenna, I guess since I have seen hack on other phone where headphone isn't need to be plugged in (the signal is bad though). Also having an antenna but no chip to pull and process data mean nothing.
