So now Iheartradio doesn't work...that's just great... - EVO 4G General

Really need this app.
Anyone have any ideas, it just never connects anymore with 2.2 Froyo.
Thanks

You could flash to CM6, I use that app daily without problems

I will second this. Wanted to check and never connected!

Really annoying to have to flash to CM6 back from Sense Froyo 2.2 just to listen to iheartradio.
Anyone know what the issue is?

I would guess that your just going to have to wait for Iheartradio to update for 2.2
Is it that much better than Pandora? I have never even looked at Iheartradio before, so I dont know.

I'm running fresh 3.1.0.1 and it is working perfect.

Works fine on CM6 Nightly and RC1. What more do you need?

Wifi
For me it would work on Wifi but not 3G. In CM6 it works no matter what. I suspect they need an update. It is pretty annoying, so I am sticking with CM6 for now. I like stock and CM6, still debating which I want. I suspect when 4G hits CM6 I won't have a reason to use stock 2.2 anymore...

I am still un-rooted and on 2.1 (waiting for 4G and unrestricted HDMI in CM6). IHeartRadio worked for me once and never again - on 3G, 4G, or wifi.
I wrote to their customer support a week ago and did not even get an automated acknowledgment

Mine is working the same way. I am on Baked Snack 1.1 and Cherry Rplayer and Iheartradio will not stream while I'm on 3G. If I switch to Wifi they both work fine.

Using BackedSnack 1.2.5 I have the same issue with IHeartRadio,
works fine on Wifi, does not work over 3G.
It works fine with CM6, but as a workaround, if you turn WIFI on (even if you dont have a connection) and start streaming Iheartradio, it will continue working (does for me) even if you turn WIFI off afterwards.
Hope that helps.

[Q] rooted slide with no wifi

I am having some major issues with the wifi on my slide. When I have the rooted software installed. I have tried both the stock cynogen 6.0.0 rom and the teamfenix version but still cannot get the wifi to work on my home network. I haven't found any other roms to try though.
fyi:
Works fine on stock rom
home network is open with no mac filtering or anything like that.
I also have heard that flashing the radio might help but I thought that was separate from the wifi and the antenna works fine. I also have no issues with a data connection through the network.
Also if someone could recommend a way of transferring the phone program from the sense rom to the root rom that would be great. (I like the way it gives you the number it thinks you are about to dial, makes calls more fluid actions)
So... ideas?

A few: The latest known radio for the slide is 7.09.35.10. If you have that you don't need to reflash it. CM 6.0 has a known issue with the wifi that you can fix by turning on bluetooth. You don't have to have bluetooth connect to anything, just have it on. I don't know why that works but it does. Or you can flash the latest nightly for the slide. You can find it through ROM Manager, but you'll need the paid version to do that, which is totally worth it, or find it in the cyanogenmod forum. However, if you go ahead and flash the nightly, beware that things may or may not work (although the last several I've run have been damn stable) and DO NOT POST BUGS IN THE BUG TRACKER!
Also, on a side note, bluetooth in call audio does not work. Meaning you can not talk on the phone through bluetooth. Stereo bluetooth works great though, so you can listen to music no problem.

Thanks for the heads-up on that, I just thought my bluetooth was being retarded.

How do I check what radio version I have?

If on CM6: Menu>settings>about phone then look at the baseband version. It's the last set of numbers. If on stock ROM it's the same sequence except after you go into "about phone" you need to go into "software information".

Where can I find the radio update? Can't find it on the HTC website or on here.
edit: actually - it seems to be working fine now for some screwed up reason. My roms seem to do that... if my phone is in a good mood when I do my nandroid restore, then it works even better than before (hey look that rymes). If not, then it says "F*** off and die, I'm not giving you internet you fascist SoB.". As you may understand my phone has major mood swings... I think it gets PMS.
The CM6 thread has a link to the latest radio I believe. Also, something that worked for me is under the WiFi Settings menu, press Menu > Advanced, and change Regulatory Channels to 14. I saw that posted in one of the CM65 threads and it worked for me.
I found something interesting out about my phone. Apparently those moods I talked about are just the wipe not working properly. If I wipe it 3-5 time beforehand everything seems to work better.
I can even get golden sun working on the gameboid which I had thought was too unstable to work (just that one game though not the whole program).

Tethering on 4g with wireless tether for root.

I have been trying to figure out how turn use the wireless tethering with 4g. I have no problems running it on 3g but the minute I turn on 4g internet stops working. I does stay connected though. I have downloaded different versions of the wireless tether including the newest version. Is this not suppose to work. This also happens with the sprint hotspot.

I may be wrong but I think wimax is on 2.4ghz and so is most wifi. Maybe deep within the kernel or programs there's something keeping that from happening. Kinda same thing that you can't upload anything with the browser either.
It's just a guess.
Which rom are you using and which kernel???? I've been using 4g tether with myn n koni elite series no problem with stock kernel. I. Fact I got great speed from it too.

Clear/Sprint's WiMax is in the 2.5Ghz band.
I am using Koni's ELITE series II, that i just flashed about 5 mins ago. before that i was using Koni's Elite I. I'm still a noob in this android platform, coming from a long time user of windows mobile. My kernel version is 2.6.32.17 -gee557fd htc-kernel2and18-2 #15. software is 3.70.651.1. I can usb tether, i can hotspot tether, and i can wireless tether, but only on 3g. BtW, I just bought this phone 2 days ago..hardware version 0003.
Is your wifi toggled on? 4g is programmed to disconnect anytime a wifi connection is available

no wifi toggle.
I have changed officially through 6 roms, and none allow me to wifi tether with 4g. . I am now back to my stock nand restore since i haven't been able to figure any of this out. I really ponders me because others are claiming to have 4mb + speed on 4g tether. i'm stuck on 25kb tether on 3g and thats with full signal strength. I have ran out of things to do to get it to work.
one thing i did find interesting was that when i had my 4g connected and was wifi tethering, i was able to open google on my laptop and search for whatever- on the app it begins to read 128kb and so on -, but if i go else where and leave google search - ie..xda, msn-, IE or Firefox would tell me connection failed and i would see the app on my phone go to 0.0kb.
what is someones configuration to try that combination out to see if it works. Could it be the way i rooted? the kernel (although i changed through 3 of them)? the rom (changed through 6 of them)? or just the phone hardware(how would i prove it to sprint to replace it?)? maybe user error!
I have the exact same problem as butwhydoitalk2u. I'm rooted on 2.2 stock. WiFi is turned off. I've tried all channels and none work with 4G.
It started happening about a week ago. I didn't install any new apps. Pretty sure I didn't update anything voluntarily either.
3G works, 4G doesn't work with wireless tether.
Google.com will load on laptop browser, I can search, but any external links won't load after clicking through.
All other sites will time out on laptop browser.
Phone, mobile browser, etc. works fine while 4G is turned on, not sure if it's 4G speeds though.
I would appreciate any help. Thanks.
I'm not 100%, and I know it is just a technicality and does not matter, but I do believe that WiMax is in the 700MHz band.
As of last night I have this exact same problem.. as soon as I turn on 4g I loose wireless tether.. stock ROMs just rooted.. tried two tether programs...
I was using this for 2 months no issue then all off a sudden... browser on phone works fine..
ANYONE???
Are those that are having issues using a "Switch Pro"?
I dont know what a switch pro is but my phone is a EVO 4g...
Anyone know what's going on?
Been using it heavily for the last week, no issues on Myn RLS5. FWIW I turn on wireless tether first, then 4G.

In the USA, the biggest segment of wimax is around 2.5*GHz, and is already assigned, primarily to Sprint Nextel and Clearwire
Does anyone know if it is every going to be possible to reduce the amount of charge the WiMax radio takes in? If not, does anyone know exactly why it draws so much more than the wifi radio for example?
If you wanna tether 4g with no problem go download the latest cm7 final nightly and use the tether options that's cooked into the Rom. I have no problems with it. I'm currently tethering my Xbox over 4g as I'm typing this post. Hope that helps

[Q] Syndicate Rom 1.0.2 wireless tether error

So im on Syndicate rom 1.0.2 and i like it alot. its realy fast and smooth. but ever since moving from 1.0.1 the wireless tether app (3.0.9) doesnt work. When i launch the app and click to start tethering it starts initiating the process but freezes right where its trying to use the hotspot and then it makes the phone reboot. Any other verion of this app will FC. Can some one help please? i have reflashed the rom properly a few times and that didnt help. I also tried the tether fix file that k0nane had on his thread and didnt fix anything either. I tried downloading the hotspot fix from Syndicate page and those links dont work anymore. Can some one please help?
EDIT: i have it set on epic 4g in the settings.
Also does any one have a way to fix the tws bug? (i do know the airplane mode trick but was looking for a fix not a workaround)
thanks eveyone in advance....k0nane, thank you for your hard hard work bro
You mentioned 3.0.9 - I assume you mean -pre9. The version included in SRF is 3.0-pre11. You probably shouldn't have flashed that fix, either, because it was for 1.0.1 only.
I'd suggest you remove any copies of the Wireless Tether app you've installed, and reflash 1.0.2. You won't lose any data. See if it works for you then. If it doesn't, uninstall the preloaded version and try others. Wireless Tether is a finnicky beast, but that's expected - the 3.0 branch is experimental for a reason.
Thanks. I will try that and get back to you. And yes I meant the version that came with rom. I will try and get back to you.
Hey I tried everything in your instructions and still the same thing. I knw this wireless tether thing is in experimental stages but it worked fine on 1.0.1. I actually wasnt able to use the pre10 on that rom version so I had downloaded the 2.0.7 version and that worked fine. Do you think it might have to do with the hotspot app ? because i notice wireless tether freezes and phone reboots when its trying to launch hotspot. I notice from the notification when hotspot becomes activated the phone freezes and reboots..
Issue resolved
Well, thank you for your help again. After trying every thing from flashing the rom to uninstalling and reinstalling the wireless tether app I got tired and almost gave up. Then I started playing with the app settings and it turns out that choosing the LG Optimus under Device-Profile is really stable and works the best for me, so far no issues.
I was going to say i had issues which were resolved by selecting EPic 4G(my phone ) in settings. I was able to launch and see it but did not have internet access until i selected my phone as well.

I also selected Samsung epic but this did not work for me. what worked was LG Optimus! it is strange but it works ;-)
I didn't have to do anything and it worked fine for me. I set up Security on it but that's it. Especially with all the ROM flashing I wonder why your phone seems especially finicky. Good luck.
I had errors similar to this when using the app, my problem was that I had 4G turned on already when launching the app. Turning 4G off, launching the app establishing a connection and THEN turning on 4G works perfectly though.
mine would not work either I went to settings and changed my device profile to epic 4g and my set up method to softtap for samsung. that seem to do the trick.

[Q] Is there a way to keep the Wifi connection stable?

This is a brand new unrooted Mytouch 4G, so I suppose I haven't done anything wrong yet. =P
I tried the wifi connection on this phone, and it usually works great. But I later found out the it's not very stable. I carry this phone with me and walk around the campus, it doesn't always receive wifi signal like my iPad would always do. Also, sometimes even when it shows that I am connected, the internet based software such as skype will not work (making phone call without hearing any voice).
Is there a software/app that can help? Or maybe I should root my phone for a better version of operating system?
On the stock ROM and all Sense ROMs, there is an option under WiFi Settings -> Advanced -> Best WiFi Performance. Try selecting that and see if it makes a difference.

WOO! lol i found someone in the same boat as me...I go college as well and my ipad connects fine, but my laptop and phone (for some weird reason do not). Ive tried a whole variety of differernt rom and kernel combinations including stock, but nothing would work. I really really really wanted to stay stock on my phone because I like it so much, but it just wouldnt work. Then I tried the evil 4g HD rom with fauxs sense smartass kernel and suddenly wifi was working amazing! It connected as soon as I clicked turn on wifi and stayed connected throughout the day even though I was walking around campus. Plus the rom has sense so its not straying too far from stock! I dont know what the reason is, but you should give it a go and see if it works for you!
I finally determine to try your method. I can't find evil 4G HD rom. Did you mean Evo?

[Q] Weird WiFi Issue Using Custom ROM?

So just picked up a MyTouch 4g and so far I love it! Glad I switched from being a Windows Mobile user to a die hard Android now! Anyhow so the first thing I did when I got home was of course root it and found a custom ROM for it. I went and got [ROM][07/04/11] Virtuous Unity Sense 3.0 based on Pyramid [1.27.0] and finally got it flashed after some tinkering. Thank god I used linux before! So the phone seems to work fine, but today I noticed some annoying issues with it. I upgraded the sd card to 16gb from 8gb and had to reloaded a few of my games, no biggie, everything works now. But the WiFi is starting to piss me off. At work the wifi shouldn't be an issue, it is slow, but works. The phone just seems to keep dropping connection for no reason, then says emergency calls only and then picks back up the WiFi, etc. Does this while WiFi calling is enabled, now when I disable that, the WiFi still has issues like it won't keep a good signal. Hell I am sitting beside the router and still the signal goes up and down. I know the wifi works because I am using it thru my laptop to type this atm (using ubuntu 11.04 of course!) I have done some searching thru out the forums and noticed some others complaining about the same issue. I am asking because didn't know if this was ROM related, or maybe needed a different radio like my HTC tilt 2 used when I had it? Any ideas or maybe point me in the general direction?
