Streaming problem solved on Sprint Android Devices
I didn't find this anywhere so i decided to post. If this has already been covered, sorry guys.
i had been having problems with streaming radio for awhile now. What would happen is that i would connect to a site and start the streaming. Within moments, the stream would stop. Then start. Then stop. Sometimes i would have to restart the app to make the stream restart. The situation was annoying to say the least.
I was listening to Bubba The Love Sponge today and they were talking about how this was an issue with Sprint devices and the solution was posted on their website. So. Here it is. All i did was copy and paste. I didn't come up with it at all on my own. It's solved 90% of my problem. I still get stream stops and starts but not like before.
"3.70 update killed your streaming music? Here’s the fix.
Apparently the update changed the settings below to something that disrupts streaming.
Here’s the fix:
1) Dial ##3282#
2) Choose Edit Mode
3) Enter MSL
4) Choose Advanced
5) Change HTTP PD Proxy Port to: 0
6) Change HTTP PD Proxy Address to: 0.0.0.0
These are the settings for other Android devices so I do not know why Sprint changed them. But this will get your streaming services working again."
