Please update if the issue is solved now and will be included in the next ICS update? (a tentative date would be wonderful)

Please let me know if there are any other workarounds for this issue. Rebooting the phone every time is annoying...

The issue is - after reboot it will be OK, but FM gets into the noicy mode very soon and again needs a reboot!!

Hi there,

I've recently purchased (in India) Xperia S (android 2.3.7) ..When I'm trying to access the FM Radio..its' neither able to search for any channels nor is able to play the preset ones?

Hope to get the solution soon..

thank you in advance

Yup, I just observed it too that once you rebooted SXS the radio will play again but if you turn it off(not reboot, just stopping the radio app playing), then it seems like it can't seek any stations.

I can confirm that since yesterday's xperia s update to release 6.1.A.2.45 the issue has been fixed. I can now relaunch the radio without phone reboot (fm radio track id works too).

Although I am very pleased with my Xperia in general, I am have exactly the same problems when I try to use the radio function.

Considering that Sony has the BIG walkman legacy AND made some excellent short wave receivers years ago, just WHY is a simple FM radio so problematic ?

The camera focussing is appalling too,:smileyangry: a software update ( if possible is needed ) you just couldn’t hand the phone over to friends to take a picture, they would LAUGH. All this from the people that gave us the CyberShot !

:smileyplain:Back on track, Sony ANYONE is there a fix for this very poor FM radio Sony have dumped us with ??

Build Number 6.1.A.0.453

If you're having issues with the radio on the phone, try using a differnet pair of headphones to plug in, as the atenna is not in the phone itself but is instead in the wire for the headphones you're wearing.

I had this problem. It vanished after the second ICS update. Now I have build 6.1.a.2.45 and I dont have this issue anymore.
