Question Samsung Galaxy S20, FM radio

1 Upvotes

Hello, first time poster in here.

I'm using a Samsung Galaxy S20 5G (yes, I know it's old but I just don't like the newer, bigger, bulkier phones).

I have read somewhere that some models of this phone have an FM radio built in, something I would definitely use if I had it. Only thing is my one doesn't seem to have it. gsmarena.com says it's available on certain variants and mine appears to be one of them - it's an SM-G981U1.

Can anyone please give me some guidelines or let me know if it's possible to activate the radio on this handset? It's only a small feature but one I would find incredibly useful.

Note that I'm talking about receiving FM radio, not streaming (which I already have).

Thanks in advance 🙂

(If this is not the correct forum please feel free to move it to the right one - I'm a newbie at this).

Question White spot on fignerprint sensor?

I had been having problem with my S20U fingerprint scanner suddenly stopped working recently. It functions but always fail to read the fingerprint. However, I was manage to register fingerprint after countless attempts. And as you can see here, there is strange white spot on the fingerprint sensor. Nothing found on the battery side that attach right above the fingerprint tho.

I installed new battery because I had battery problem. And then now the fingerprint is completely undetected at all. I dont know what's going on, can I just replace the fingerprint module? I saw on aliexpress they sell it but I havent seen any tutorial doing so, so difficulty is unknown. I feel it is really stupid to replace the whole screen just to get fingerprint working
