Q. I had bought a samsung gio in Canada.
The service provider is Bell.
There is an app called TV and Radio from Bell, but the radio option requires me to subscribe to an online streaming radio company.
The specs say that there is a FM radio but I cannot find the radio app.
Do I need to root my phone?
A. I hear it's pretty hard to get radio working, but fortunately there is an app that will allow you to listen to radio.Do a search for "Spirit FM Radio" in the market place. You will have to root your phone. This link will be very useful:

I followed the instructions here to root and unlock it, as I have the same phone.

I am working to get the radio working.
Quote from RFD:
"Hey everyone, FM RADIO WORKS on the SAMSUNG GALAXY GIO GT-S5660M!!!!!
Go to Android market and search: Spirit FM Radio. The free download is a 7-day trial, so you can see if it works for you, and if it does you can purchase it (IT WILL)
1) Once you download it and install, go to Settings.
2) Under Settings, click "Audio Method"
3) Select "All," and exit settings.
*The only thing that will be working is the station/song guide, and signal strength.
4) Go back to Settings, and click "Regional Band"
*Default is "North America."
5) Select "United States."
******** YOU NOW HAVE RADIO!!!! **********
If you exit the program and reload it. You will have sound for only 5 sec. To fix this:
1) Go back to Settings, and click "Regional Band"
2) Select "North America"
******** RADIO IS BACK ********"
