App idea - Android Software Development

I have an idea for an app that somebody could create.
I had an iPhone for 3 years and there was an app called F-Stream for it. It worked flawlessly. I mainly used it for streaming radio stations to it over the cell network. There's a radio station about 150 miles away that carries my favorite college team's football, basketball, and baseball games. But I've yet to be able to find anything that will stream this radio station's feed to my Android phone (AT&T) Captivate. When using F-Stream it said this radio station was a WMA stream at 20kbps (its low because its only sports talk radio, no music). I have listed the link to the radio feed below. If anybody knows of an Android app that will currently play it please let me know. Or somebody could be awesome and create an app that'll do it, I'd pay for it and I'm sure tons of other people would to, as the entire iphone community knows about F-stream and loves it, I'm sure the Android community would love it too.

I dont think it does. I downloaded aonline radio and every time I try to enter that URL I get an error message stating that "Entered Channel URL Not Working..."
Did you actually try it out or were you just stating that you think that aonline radio will play that link. Aonline radio playsback MP3/M3U/PLS/AAC/AACP channels,shoutcast/icecast feeds. The link I want to play back is a WMA feed. Not supported.
Thanks.

Can't see if will ever happen as it would run into licensing issues.

Sirius App

New app for Sirius on market place. Can anyone install this and confirm it as being compatible on EVO. It was one of the apps I was worried about losing when I drop the iphone next week for the EVO.
http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/28/sirius-xm-android-app-hits-the-market/
Thanks.
Why would it not work?
dont know. just going off of what i read in the article. said something about list of confirmed devices. so....
doesnt hurt to have a confirmation.
I downloaded this app on my EVO 4G. It works fine.
awesome. thanks.
is it xm or sirius?
Both. Same company now.
I just got an email from Sirius yesterday that there Android App is out. I was so excited. It should work on the EVO. I had it on my TP2 and loved it. I can't wait to get my EVO next week.
works on my HTC Touch running Android too.

I verified it. It is running XM. Though they are the same company now and have merged many of their channels, they still have a few subtle differences. Mainly for me, I like to listen to the Opie and Anthony show. It's available on XM, but if you have Sirius, you have to pay more for the best of XM package.
works on my htc hero. wonder how much for a scrip. to just stream to your phone?
I'm pretty sure you have to get a full subscription, and then the add on to be able to stream.
for me, its no big deal. i already got the sub since i have it in my jeep. but i added the stream add on for when i'm in my wifes car, or at work. i know a lot of people like slacker and pandora, and i do to. but for 3 bucks a month, its a good option also.
I have it in my car and online at the beginning was always free with having it in your car than they changed it.. So I've had a subscription for a while. I just got offered a deal when my sub was up if I prepaid for a year.

It's running perfect. Listening to Zeppelin now.
Loads quick and good quality.
I can't even locate the app in the Market. Typed in 'Sirius' 'XM' 'satellite' 'radio' ... nothing
On what phone Android the Hero? I can't wait to get my EVO. My new Jawbone Icon is suppose to play MP3's and Podcast so I hope it works for Sirius. On my TP2 it was under the market place under Sirius I believe. But for my Android I got an email link I think where to get it from..

My review:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6863627&postcount=9
Sirius would be such a great company/service if they did ANYTHING or added even ONE suggestion to their devices from their customers. It's too bad, such a great idea for music and uncensored talk, but of course run by NYC a-holes...
I'm I blind or is there no Howard 100 in this app?? Come on, half your subscribers are here for that channel alone!

MLB.tv: No Streaming for Epic 4G

Well - thank you Samsung.
MLB.tv updated the AtBat2011 app today to include live streaming on Android devices. Woohoo, right?
Well, not so much. Because Samsung has delayed the official FroYo release for the Epic, the Evo is the only Sprint Device that is supported for live video streaming. Of course, I'm sure my ACS FrozenROM could handle the requirements, but because the Epic isn't officially supported the video option doesn't even show up.
I doubt there are any tricks to spoof device ID, but if anybody has any ideas, that would be great.
Otherwise, I just have one more reason not to buy another Samsung device again. Or, more properly, one more reason to be upset about the FroYo release (or lack thereof).
Here's the link to the app: https://market.android.com/details?...android.gameday.atbat2011.full&feature=banner
I feel your pain on this one. I got the update this morning and was psyched about it. But I was quickly let down when I notice my Epic wouldn't work!!
Thanks for this update. I almost bought it yesterday, then I saw that MLB partnered up with Apple for a free month trial for iPhone users. Hoping for the same Android deal, I see that it's wrought with problems still and not ready for primetime.
The Nexus S is supported, so is there a way to spoof the Epic as a Nexus S? I thought I remember seeing somewhere that one of the ROMs was using a modified market using a Nexus S identifier. Could the same approach be used here?
LIVE GAMES!? GET THIS TO WORK, NOW!!!! I always loved getting the radio feeds but if I can get the actual games, I'd freak the hell out...
speaking of that...when i goto mlb.com on a winmo device..gameday doesnt drop down anymore???? i havent found a way for gameday to come up on the epic, if there is one. but i also would love to listen to the games, anyway to do this on the epic??
Yea, the MLB app. It's $14 but well worth it if you use it as much as I do. I'm dying for live stream of games.

Bonsai was/is? Using the Nexus S keys so we could get protected apps from the market. I thought everybody here was doing the same on the leaked froyo's. Give Randy _T or Mammon a pm.

Not without some kind of tweak it appears, I've got the MLB11 App and I'm on Bonsai and don't see any live video options so it seems to still be reading it as an Epic.
When I started using the CM7 alpha, I got an email from google thanking me for my nexus purhase...

I think it was only being done on the DK28 leak froyo's. No reason to do it now that EC05 is out.

If you can afford it, get Slingbox. They run from $150 to $250... The Solo (the lesser priced one- beware) has some issue with capacitors.. Anything that you can get on your TV can easily be forwarded to your device. I have an Epic, as well. Slingbox forwards me my MLB account (from Roku)... I also get Netflix, Hulu Plus, and lots of other stuff.. music YouTube, International News, etc. If I have a net connection, I can watch and listen to anything on my TV or Roku
To afford all this, I cut my Uverse account back to basic at $19 a month plus box rental. I was spending $90 a month prior to hooking up Roku and Slingbox. One time investment only for Slingbox and Roku. You will have to fork out the $29 for the Slingbox Mobile for Android app to accomplish this. It includes clever remote control codes to manipulate your TV and other hardware at home.
MLB looks fabulous on Roku this year. Last year, it was problematic. This year, great.
You'll be watching the World Series and all the playoff games without forking out any more money. It's a great way to go. Im saving a lot of money. I use it off and on when work is slow.. watch a couple innings, etc.. When we travel, I use it.. .I also use the Sling software on my laptop.
So if live radio working? I want this app.

So I went ahead and installed CM7 Alpha 1 to see if that works, but no such luck. When I go to my account on the market (web version) it shows the phone as a Samsung SPH-D700 under Model. When I'm on another ROM it shows up as just SPH-D700 and the manufacturer is the same in both cases (Samsung)
Could someone please drop MLB Android support a email and ask them why our phone isn't supported?

I did. They emailed and said they're researching it. Quick turnaround on the response, too.

[Q] No Radio App?

Is there no FM radio application installed with the Xperia Play? I cant seem to find it.

Nope, but you could download an app from the market to stream music
I think a few things have been rushed on the play so as to get the ball rolling on the xperia app store ready for the ngp\psp2. shame realy cus this could have been the phone that put SE back on top as THE must have phone.
Most radio stations are streaming live over the internet, offering a better quality imo.

Streaming radio waste megabytes though.
I am only on a 500mb data plan per month.
One full day of streaming radio will eat all of that up !

Online radio stream app

I have the url for a online radio stream which comes on a few times a day and is not 24/7.
I have used tunewiki in the past to listen to it on my phone but sometimes the stream doesn't come up. Is there a free app on the market which is easier to use so I can simly paste the url and listen on my tablet?
I'm using XiiaLive, very happy about it.

TuneIn Radio could work... but it doesn't require URL's though...
Search anything you'd like... there's like 50000 radiostations online...
yeah tunein radio is really good, it's got pretty much every radio station you'd want. i even managed to get an obscure london southbank station that i didn't expect would come up.
you can schedule it to tune into a station at specific times, and the pro version let's you record as well - but not schedule a recording for when your away from the tablet unfortunately.
+1 for tunein. Its in my experience the best radio app available for Android.
Shame it still runs like **** on my Novo7 basic, but thats besides the point
I'm using serve stream.

Looking for an FM Tuner App (not Streaming)

Yeah, I live in the sticks. My Dinc is Wifi Only Since Straighttalk doesn't offer service for the CDMA phone.
Anyway, since I live in a small town Iowa, Wifi is not an option when I'm out jogging. So I want to find an FM Tuner app for it so I can tune in live radio rather than being confined to my MP3's.
So far everything I find either points to a dead file-share link, or is just a re-link to various versions of "FM Radio" in the Play store. That won't start on the Dinc, it just sits there on the "application is starting" screen forever.
My Dinc is running Albino's CM10 port Beta 3. So if anyone can point me to a good tuner which works.
Have you tried Spirit FM?
I have never used it but it's popular.
Sent from my ADR6300 using xda app-developers app
I was going to say spirit also. It comes as spirit light for 2.99 or spirit unlocled for 9.99.
Alrighty, that's one to try (I had run across Spirit FM the christian radio app, but not the FM Tuner one)
if anyone knoes of others, feel free to chime in.
Anyone know of a non-streaming AM radio app? Spirit FM doesn't get the station I want. There are much closer AM stations that broadcast sporting events tho.
