[Q] iHeartRadio not working - Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Anybody else having this problem? Loads up correctly and everything but won't connect to any stations.

I seem to be having the same problem also.

Me too. On my Evo, when I switched to 2.2 I had this problem. The fix was to toggle wifi while trying to start a station. That fix doesn't work on the Epic. I think this is going to require feedback to the developer.

Drat! This is one I was hoping for.

I heart radio not working for me either.
Do you have Tunein from Radio time. You should definitely check it out it has tons of stations search-able.

I'm thinking the developer has either coded it to only work on WiFi, or made a mistake in the application so it doesn't know how to use 3g or 4g networks to operate.
I use Slingbox and police scanner apps on 3g so I doubt it's an issue with the phone itself.

i had iheartradio connect to a station ONE time, ever on my epic. i've heard its a terrible app and clearchannel never fixes, updates it. and whats worse is a like a clearchannel station which cant be pulled up on tunein or other apps. bogus....
it doesnt work on wifi or 3g for me and nothing fixes. and i get stream podcasts on other apps while on 3g or wifi no problem, def the app.

I have it working WiFi only on an Epic. Strange...

My understanding is that this really an issue of a proxy server inserted by Sprint to filter our internet traffic. Instructions for removing the proxy server setting can be found in the "fix for skyfire" thread (my apologies for not posting the link)

I actually found a work around on accident. I knew that it was wifi only. My other post was my suprise with the FC issues. Ill post the work around on my site tomorrow when I'm not on my Epic (which is flashed to Cricket).

So apparently sprint thinks this is the iphone and we want our traffic filtered and/or proxied. This causes skyfire not to work with its flash video feature (and possibly other video/streaming apps, like a radio app I tried). But you can fix it and here's how (credit goes to sdx thread for the moment, will try and post link when back at pc):
##3282#
Multimedia
Input your msl (find it using adb command getprop, look for msl in readout)
Change rtsp proxy to 0.0.0.0 and rtsp proxy port to 0
Enjoy your unfiltered traffic!

you sir, are the man! ran it through, will verify the fix but this is much appreciated

awesome thank you!

iheartradio is kind of sucking on both wifi and 3g. Happens with both the Epic and Droid X. Pandora runs very smoothly though. This leads me to believe that this app isn't that good. Anyone else experience this?

If you apply the fix referenced in this thread, from the skyfire thread, it makes it work, but ya the app itself is kinda crappy, mine buffers every few min even on solid 3g

I have an older version of iHeartRadio that streams much better than the latest...

radiotime
I stopped using Iheartradio because I found radiotime which is much better in every way

Everyway except that you can't get Clearchannel Communications stations on there.
That's the only reason why I have to use iHeartRadio...

Haven't really been able to find a good station. Don't live in Houston anymore... The morning show is actually pretty funny.

[Q] Market server errors?

Both my wife and I (both on Fresh 3.1.0.1) are getting server errors trying to access android market tonight. Anyone else having this problem? Tried rebooting, tried routing through wifi, neither helped.

Edited OP. 3G here is spotty, so I thought it might be that market refused to go thru wifi for some weird auth-related reason. I wasn't seeing packets going thru the router, at least. But I turned off wifi, verified that I was able to route packets thru 3G, and still no market.

Gotcha. I do hope they fix it soon. There's nothing worse that being bored and wanting to browse apps. It's funny because I normally don't browse much on the app store. Maybe it's my fault
theres a all around problem with the market for the last hour or so i just tested both my Evo and a old Samsung Moment laying around the house and both are having the same problem.(Also my Evo's Rom is the stock rooted 2.2)

It got me too, hopefully it's just some maintenance, although the least they could do would be to post a notice
It seems to be back up. However, I can't find some apps, and it's not showing free apps in the list anywhere near the top when I search (e.g. my wife just searched for "clock" -- she wants a new clock widget). I'm hoping this is a temporary problem.
Actually I'd really like to be able to filter to get just free apps on a search, but, no go on this.
I think they are SLOWLY getting it back up. I don't have top paid tab in my market. Its loading very slow, and a lot of apps are missing. Hopefully it will be sorted out by morning.

Nat3 ps3,help pls or advice

Im useing the epic 4g touch, I'm rooted on the strongsteve rom. BTW,this rom is freaking sic man,I LOVE,this rom!!!!! Formally the new senzesation wich was very neat and fast.
Any how,im tryin to hook up a ps3 and the strongsteve rom does have the hotspot hack.so it works great. Im getting a nat3 and it wont let me play with other people. HOW can i get to nat2? Has anyone found a way around this? Ive searched high and low. To no avail. Look at my post count. I found out how to root and flash just from reading this site and acs. So i do my homework before i post. Thanx in advance guys
Nat 3 refers to Wireless with a bad connection.
I'd recommend getting Wireless tether and not using the sprint hotspot hack. I believe wireless tether is in the market, but if it's not you can easily find an APK.
Also, I'm not accusing you in anyway, shape, or form. But a lot of idiots can root their phone (I'm not calling you dumb or anything),, and never stop bugging rom devs.

Tried static IP address on ps3? Maybe the limited connection is DNS issue.

I do not use a custom rom. I'm rooted with stock EL29, and Rouge recovery. I also have the ACS AIO mod isntalled (which includes Sprint hotspot mod). I've used this to tether to my laptop and share connection to my Xbox, without any NAT issues.
I'd imagine if that method works for me, then the same setup (minus the laptop as a bridge) would work even better for you on the PS3.

Even if you manage to get to NAT2 the ping times are going to be very high - over 100ms, probably around 130ms or higher. If you're fine with say, shooting at someone and finding out they were 10 feet to the right the entire time then go for it. Otherwise get REAL internet.
As said before, try setting a static IP for your PS3 or using the USB tether function, that might get you to NAT2. Also get something like Droidwall and firewall all programs while tethering. Turn off background data and sync also. Lastly, you might try this and see if it helps also. That's all I got.
Yea, good luck playing a high end video game online with your 3g/4g connection.. It works, but lags. As suggested already, use wifi tether or another tether app and use it wired, not the hotspot or wireless tether. And wouldnt recommend online gaming lol unless you want your scores to drop

What this guy said is very true. 3G is not good for online gaming, especially when the game is unoptimized and expects a broadband connection. I tried playing Quake 3 on my phone over 3g once. It lagged to all hell. The only way to play was to install the dreamcast dialup optimizations.
This is such a terrible idea lol. "Hey guys I'm gonna go play Gears of War over 3G." Lagfest waiting to happen.
3g sucks for online gaming lol. However I played over 4g before and the connection was pretty stable and playable!

Unable to stream (Pandora, Songza, YouTube) over 3G, data works though...?

Data for browsing, etc works like normal... But I'm unable to stream any media on 3G, WiFi is fine and I don't have 4G. On YouTube I get an error about connection to the server being lost (something like that) - App or Browser - and Pandora/Songza just won't buffer, but the apps will load up fine.
Oh, also I on occasion will use WiFi tether to connect to the Wii to stream Netflix, but that works pretty well. Occasionally it needs to buffer.
Any guesses as to why, or more importantly how to fix this? I'm stock and rooted, LG8 firmware, but this was an issue prior to this.
Update prl and profile. Are you in a weak signal area?

So odd. I had updated both following my update to LG8 last week when I was at work... I just updated both again, and now all 3 are streaming just fine. I'm in a good signal area, and so is the are that I like to run in too. Weird. Guess it just needed another update. Thanks for the tip.

I was able to fix mine by changing my Sprint network from CDMA to LTE/CDMA.
WTF. So now tonight it's broken again. Even re-updated the PRL, etc... This is annoying as hell. And on an unrelated note, anytime I try and copy a URL in Chrome it crashes and doesn't copy. And copy/paste everywhere else just doesn't work. So mad.
very interesting...the issue hit LTE evo owners too. ....I have a conspiracy theory but unfortunately can not share it.
those that have contacted pandora get a letter that they are aware of the issue and working on a fix.
I have had the same happen to me, flashed lg8 and lg2 with no change. Still cannot stream.

If that were the case then it wouldn't have worked on my Evo... When it did. So, I'm thinking that's not the case...
Anyway, I will place a call to tech support this afternoon, I just need access to a 2nd phone.
Welp. Call 1 was no help. All they had me do was type in some code on the dial pad that took the phone through the hands free activation process. Didn't work (duh)... And then I was told to clear the cache and cookies on my browser (how that'd help Pandora...?) which also didn't work. He then told me he could set me up with an appointment at a Sprint store. Uhm. No. Have to try another tech.
0 for 2. Again asked to update profile... Even after explaining I literally just did. Same with cookies/cache. When I reiterated that I can't stream via apps or a browser the tech sounded perplexed, and then we got disconnected.
So, is my best bet to unroot and take it in? Lame.

DS Audio and LG Optimus G Issue

This question is for anyone with a Synology DiskStation NAS and a LG Optimus G: have you had issues with DS Audio over Sprint's CDMA network? Over Sprint's CDMA network I cannot stream music where I live (large city) but about 120 mi away in my hometown (much smaller city) it works just fine. I can access the music library but when I try play a track the wheel in the upper left corner of my screen keeps spinning and the track never starts. A couple things worth mentioning are that my download speeds where I live are faster than my hometown and DS Audio works fine on my HTC Evo OG at both locations. Also, Netflix and Pandora work fine on the CDMA network at both locations on the LG. DS Audio works fine over WiFi on the LG.
I have a ticket in with Synology and they're looking into it.
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda premium
That is an excellent question. I'll test it out tomorrow when I'm away from home. DS audio worked fine on my evo 4g too... But the only time I've tried using it on the LGOG is at the gym where I frequently have signal issues anyway.... I'll test and get back to you.
On another note, are we technology twins? Same phones, same NAS... Lol :what:
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda app-developers app
So I can confirm I'm having the same problem. 3G won't work. It loads the library fine, but never loads or plays a song. I'm also in a large city - no LTE here yet.
Interestingly, the connection does work on wifi even using the dns address, which means it's probably something wrong with the app itself. I'll see if my friend with an HTC One X on AT&T has any better luck.
EDIT: works just fine on at&t
Let me know if I can be of any help while you're working with Synology.
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda app-developers app
Thanks for checking into that. What version of Android is the other phone you checked this on running? One thing I have speculated is that this may be an issue with 4.0.4 but I have doubts since I feel there would be more people complaining if that was the case.
DS Audio uses the native MediaPlayer (would post a link to the Android developer site but my post count is too low) to play music streams just like Pandora so I think it has something to do with their initialization since Pandora works fine over CDMA. I have sent Synology my log collected with aLogcat and the error below appears A LOT when I am trying to play a song over CDMA, but not when everything is working fine on WiFi.
W/NEXSTREAMING( 196): nexSALBody_SockRecv - select ret : 0, errno=0
I will keep you updated regarding what Synology tech support comes back with, technology twin.
So I found out how to fix this issue:
Disable the proxies all Sprint network traffic is routed through on your phone. Unfortunately, you're gonna need to get your MSL and to do that you need to contact Sprint and ask for it (the methods I found on Google don't work anymore). When I asked for it I told them I was developing a music streaming application that was having issues and I believed it was because of the proxies the internet traffic is routed through so I needed the MSL to test if that was the case. The thread below has the instructions to disable the proxies:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1283229

Can someone try out a music streaming app for me?

Since everyone here is essentially on the same hardware and network, I want to know if anyone else is having the same issues I am.
I can not get the 1.fm app to work on the Sprint network (3G or 4G). It will only work if I am on a WiFi network.
I enjoy listening to Chillout Lounge, and I'd like to listen to the station in my car, but I keep getting a message saying "Internet Connection Lost.....Reconnecting".
I want to see if it's a problem with my phone, a problem with the sprint network, or maybe a problem with my modem firmware.
If anyone can get it to work, let me know what Modem you have.
Thanks.

My 3G and 4G connections are quite good actually. I've even tethered my laptop through 4G and used RDP to connect to a remote machine and it seems quite stable. RDP can certainly have issues if the connection has issues.
But I've also seen issues when tying to use Rad.io. Which makes me think it's not just a software issue.

Don't get me wrong, I do appreciate the help, but have you taken a moment to load the app I mentioned? It would be a lot more helpful if someone can test this app on their phone.
I honestly don't care about Pandora. It's not the program that is giving me a problem. What I need is for someone to confirm they are having similar issues that I am having with the programs I am trying to run. I don't want to run a ton of tests on my phone before it is determined the issue is even in my phone.
Just to let you know, Pandora does seem to work, but I'm not trying to get that program to work.

I'm sorry, sometimes the only way to get the message across to people is to just be blunt about it. I was just trying to get some information that he was refusing to provide.
He was making suggestions that were aimed at diagnosing my phone. Before I can take that step, I need to determine if the problem is even in my phone. For that, I need people to try the app on their phones. If the majority of people that test the app say it is working for them, then I can determine my next step and go from there.
I'm not asking for anyone to do anything that would harm their phone or have them invest more than a couple of minutes of effort. The reviews on the Play Store page do not provide the information I am looking for. They are just commenting that it doesn't work. I am trying to find commonality.
If you were cooking something and go up to another person and ask them if what you are cooking needed a little salt, and without even doing a taste test, they start asking if I used a lot of garlic or have the temperature set up to high, then they are not being helpful. And having to remind them that all you want is their opinion on the salt, and they still refuse to do a taste test, it gets a little annoying.

Thanks,
I just noticed something new when I tried to play that station
While at home, when I play a station, I get a little message saying "Lost Internet Connection....reconnecting" and it does try to reconnect, but just keeps looping the same error. Now that I'm at work, I get a new message saying "Internet Connection Error. Please try again later" and it stops trying to play anything.
This kinda leads me to thinking it might be an issue with the actual sprint network in my area. But I'd still like some more people to try it out to get a clearer picture.

I'm sorry, sometimes the only way to get the message across to people is to just be blunt about it. I was just trying to get some information that he was refusing to provide.
He was making suggestions that were aimed at diagnosing my phone. Before I can take that step, I need to determine if the problem is even in my phone. For that, I need people to try the app on their phones. If the majority of people that test the app say it is working for them, then I can determine my next step and go from there.
I'm not asking for anyone to do anything that would harm their phone or have them invest more than a couple of minutes of effort. The reviews on the Play Store page do not provide the information I am looking for. They are just commenting that it doesn't work. I am trying to find commonality.
If you were cooking something and go up to another person and ask them if what you are cooking needed a little salt, and without even doing a taste test, they start asking if I used a lot of garlic or have the temperature set up to high, then they are not being helpful. And having to remind them that all you want is their opinion on the salt, and they still refuse to do a taste test, it gets a little annoying.
Sorry, my bad.

Dude I was helping diagnose not your phone but the APP if other streaming apps work then I would say Sprint and your phone are good but the app is having a issue. Also in my first post I stated what I saw on the first 3 reviews. So before you state I wasn't trying help you try again. Good day.

Stay tune, next version will have software decoding solution that can solve your issue. Btw, did you try same thing on WiFi? Did it work for you?

Other streaming apps are NOT working. I already stated the Rad.io will not stream the same stations in post #3.
And those reviews don't have enough information to conclude it is a problem with the app. Only that it is not working for them. If I could talk to those people I would, but I can only talk to the people here, which is why I want to see if anyone else has the same problem. If I can find someone with the same problem, then we can go to the next step, which would be looking for the common elements (modem, rom, location, etc)
Knowing if the app works or not for other people is far more helpful for me. Through all this, have you even tried the app on your phone? Hell, you might even like the app because most of those stations play some really good stuff you don't normally hear on a typical radio station.

Trust me I understand what you are saying in post 5# you answered Pandora another streaming app is working. I know you don't want or care about Pandora it was to test if Sprint was the issue which appear to not be the case. And honestly at the time I was not in a position to d/l or test had crappy reception at where I was when I answered you the last time. And at home is bogus because I have a Airrave. I am at work now and d/l to test. To me reviews show a possible issue seeing one was like 2 days ago complaining about the same thing even some of the good comments suggest connection issues. (did have another review but after rereading it the user had other issues)
Testing right now got 5 or 6 bars 4g and same issue and I am in the bean. So I stand by what I said in post 7 (See screenshot)

Works great** on my LG Optimus S
GREAT!!** Nice variety of styles rangeing numerous channels w/crystal clarity! [**SOLE negative] I can/able to get internet access/connection ONLY via community TWC WiFi "hotspot" (@times: mobile network... barely!!) Thus, constant buffering / gaps occur. But, my connection limitation aside, 1.FM still allows for great listening!! {{ especially after phone's positioned for optimum reception }}

Thank you. That screenshot tells me a lot. I am assuming you are rooted, so I'm hoping someone who isn't rooted can try it (fat chance of that considering this is XDA, but I can hope).
And one of the issues with those reviews is there is almost no mention of what network they are running on, so I can't use them to determine if it's a problem with the program on certain networks.
The reason I didn't care for Pandora is because it doesn't work like the 1.fm program (or other internet radio station apps). Pandora can't tune into the broadcast stations I like to listen to.

I understand they don't work the same but streaming is streaming proves network is good (which is my only point). I know there is a lot of unknown with the reviews but it can be a indication that it isn't you.
And to answer your question yes I am on TPR a stockish ROM.
