Why can't BlackBerry include FM Radio support in the BlackBerry Z10? Supposedly it has the hardware that's required for it. If anybody knows a way to get this feature on the Z10 please comment.

As far as I've always understood the Z10 doesn't have the FM radio hardware which is why it's unable to support it.

Only the STL 100-1, the non-LTE model Z10, has the FM radio built into its TI based chip set. And the more recent 10.2.1 OS does activate it.

But, the other 3 Snapdragon based phone models (STL 100-2, 3, & 4) with LTE don't have the hardware for it at all.
