Is there really no true FM radio without earphones? I am looking for an offline FM radio without antenna.
It was definitely possible on older devices with Android Jelly Bean, but I look for a non-root solution.
I know that FM radio requires a 75 cm antenna, that's why the stock FM radio app is forcing me to plug in earphones. But I need another app which ignores this physical requirement.
I see no reason why it shouldn't work for Android 7. But all the offline UKW/FM radio apps I found in Playstore are lying, these are just online radio apps, not using the built-in fm radio hardware.
The Redmi Note 9 radio works without earphones plugged in.
Does not do much else like work as a phone but the radio works.
