I've heard it rumored before this phone has an fm tuner built in just not enabled. I saw this on xda just last night, it's true! You just have to install these things (in the order he says) reboot* and turn on bluetooth before starting the fm radio app. once it's tuned in and working you can turn bt off.

*they don't say anything about rebooting but my wife's fm wouldn't work until we did.

fmradio for LGP920 ，test pass on froyo and GB - xda-developers

edit: you also have to have headphones plugged in like most phone fm radios. You can play fm on the speaker but the headphones still have to be there to work as an antenna.
 
I tried the download and couldn't get it to work. It downloads to my file manager but can't do anything with it even with bt enabled and earphones in. Also rebooted phone???
 
I downloaded them onto my computer, then transferred to my Thrill via USB, put it in the main folder. Unplugged from the computer, turned on the BT, plugged in some headphones and installed each program. After those are installed, so into your apps and click on the FM Tuner. Should work and then you just have to turn off the BT.
