Streaming Live Radio

I know there are some apps listed in market that allow live streaming but non of them seem to work. For example Fox News has an app for live radio, it installs OK but when running it it just sits there and I never get any sound.
Also trying some radio stations websites I never get the live streaming to work, even trying multiple browsers (Opera, Dolphin, SkyFire and built in one).
Anyone have any luck trying the above?
Thanks

I'm using TuneIn Radio app. Has all my local stations in CD quality and works well. Although it does take a while for the streams to load.
Also since I flashed JK1 firmware, I can now go on to all my favourite sites and use the built-in flash players. Maybe it's something to do with the firmware?

You beat me to it I just installed Tunein..and yes it works great! A little issue on the buffering (and I'm in a great reception area too) but other than that its a great app!
I have the JK5 flashed to my tab at the moment (ATT Tab with working phone in US) so that may be part of the reason.
Thanks

yes I don't know why it takes so long to buffer but once it kicks in, mine plays without any issues.
Also just noticed it has alarm wakeup function in the menu, so you can specify a time and it will start playing your favourite station to wake you up

While streaming this will this eat into my Sprint 2gb plan ?
Thanks...

Is there a service that can cache music to my SD card while I'm on wifi instead of eating up my 3G plan?
I know Slacker can do this, but they charge for that feature (I think).

No more streaming radio after official jk4 Po

I installed the official jk4 froyo this morning and neither winamp or xiialive can connect to any stations, I use this feature a lot and I'm very bummed right now.
Both apps can browse the station listings but cannot connect to the stream.
I've tried rebooting and it didn't help.
I have full signal, it's not like it times out slowly just instantly get an unable to connect message.
Could bell be blocking this?
Anyone else?

I gave this a try just to check for you, and it doesn't work on my jk4 either.
I've checked with logcat, and there doesn't seem to be a dicernable error, it just keeps sending playercode 14 (which I have no idea what it means).
I'd suggest contacting the winamp dev team, they may need to update the app.

It's not just winamp
"failed to play the requested stream" is the actual message, from searching it looks like it has something to do with the type of stream aac vs mp3 and it's not device or app specific.
hopefully a fix comes along soon.

I just tested it and I can stream fine over both wifi and 3G with JK4

I had this issue with TuneIn Radio when I first got jk3. I just reinstalled the app
and everything worked fine.

it's winamp
after a reboot if I start winamp first and then try other streaming apps non work, if I do a reboot and just use other streaming apps it works fine.
so I guess avoid winamp for now.

Data stops working on 3G

I am currently getting a loss of data on my phone after hitting what seems to be a cap limited by Verizon. I listen to Pandora radio (HD not lo quality) in my car every day on the way to work. I noticed one day when I made a stop (therefor extending my trip by 2 minutes) before I got to work pandora, and all data would stop downloading. I could not surf the web download a file, or anything. The only fix I have found for this at all was to disable my networking (2g/3g) and re-enable. This does not happen on wifi at all. Does anyone else seem to see this issue?
Android Inc (AMOLED)
Cyanogenmod 7 RC1 (seems to happen on any ROM though)
HBOOT-0.92.000
RADIO-2.15.00.11.19 (older radios also did the same)
269.64MB total data used last month (tracked with 3G watchdog)
With and without the data uncap mod (did not change)

How many GB of data are you using each month?

I take no credit, but here.http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=891047&highlight=data+cap

Unfortunately, I have done it with and without that mod. I use less than 500MB a month on data. That shouldn't affect me, though I tried with that mod and no difference. I have the "Unlimited" plan of 5GB though I know that removes the speed limits and total limit.

[Q] Help my data does not work

Hi all im using a bell atrix and my data has been wonky. My phone will show that it is connected to h+ with the up down arows showing but my phone is unable to open any web page or do a speed test. This issue is intermittent and a phone reset will provide a temporary fix. It even drops a connection during continuous data use. I listen to Sirius and it will stop playing randomly. Any help would be appreciated!

It happens with quite a few Atrix phones so it's sort of a common issue. I think motorola addresses that issue on the new update.

Check if your apn is still there n are you rooted

try this

need to get RSD lite

Let me clarify
My phone is not rooted. Also this issue is not 24/7 it happenes intermittently and at random intervals. Let me go over things I have tried. Phone reset, sim card swap, phone swap. So I hope that helps.

b_man95,
I am having the same issues. Started about a few days ago.... I was in vancouver over easter weekend and it was working fine. Before I left for Vancouver I was streaming canucks games via the bell tv and radio app and it worked perfectly with no glitches.
Now since back in Fort Mac(AB), when I tried to watch the game 7 canucks vs blackhawks it started freezing. Now youtube, facebook and any heavy data web page or app is super slow if it works at all.
I am running everything the same as you. Where are you located? I called bell and they seemed to be say that it is a problem with either the phone or the sim card... but I am nearly certain this is not the case. It was working fine a few days ago in Vancouver, and I have not changed anything on the phone since then (besides taking a picture or two).
I believe Bell is having network issues but it too f***ing proud to admit it - because they are "Canada's fastest and most reliable network" right?
I also posted this response to your post on motorola support.

Know one has one suggestion?

I've had the same problem on the Evo 4g, whether on 3g, 4g, or Wifi, since around the time of your original post. Pandora support says it's a known issue and they're working on it. Wonder if Pandora One users have the same problem.....
