Problem with Sirius App and EVO 4G with Froyo?
 

For all of you that updated to Froyo 2.2(OTA or leaked) and have the Sirius App, might notice a problem with your app. There is a looping problem and skipping problem. You will be listening to the radio and all of a sudden you will hear it start over again, or it will just skip forward. It seems everyone with Froyo, on any device is having this problem.

I just got off the phone with Sirius. Supposedly, they thought they fixed this problem which started with Nexus 1 and Froyo and has now continued on to the EVO 4G. The Sirius Rep said he wasn't sure what they reported, but this is what the Tech support told each caller. They told everyone that called to go to application in settings area. Go to the Sirius App. First, clear data or clear cache(most likely data). Then, uninstall the Sirius App and then reinstall it. See if that fixes the problem. Of, course, by reading the other forums, it didn't fix anything. But, for some odd reason, not many people called back to tell Sirius that their fix didn't work.

So now on to me. First, like everyone else, we all have the looping/repeating issue, with skipping also. Everyone has had this problem since updating to Froyo 2.2. I told tech support this and they have now escalated back the problem. Before I called, I did what was told to do, clear data, uninstall the Sirius App and then reinstall the Sirius APP, and still got the same problem. This is important. Everyone now needs to call Sirius and let them know about the problem. You must first try the clear data and uninstall and reinstall first before you call, because they will ask if you tried this first. The more people that call, the faster it will get fixed, because it will become more of a priority. I also mentioned to the Tech Support for Sirius that I was on the EVO 4G, and we just got Froyo, 2.2 yesterday, and the Droid is getting it today and Droid X and Incredible soon afterwards. They better correct the problem before they get flooded with calls. The Tech guy said for me to go onto the forums and tell everyone that is having this problem to call Sirius.

So, if you are having the looping/skipping problem with the Sirius App since installing Froyo, call Sirius now and ask for tech support.

Went to Sirius and got the email for the download. There were 2 installs, and it looks like the second one is the update to the first one. All I can say it is working great. I did not expect it to be this good but am impressed.

Re: Problem with Sirius App and EVO 4G with Froyo?

Re: Problem with Sirius App and EVO 4G with Froyo?

Re: Problem with Sirius App and EVO 4G with Froyo?
 

It's good to see they updated the site to inform us they are working on an update.

Re: Problem with Sirius App and EVO 4G with Froyo?
 

Anyone heard any inside info if they plan to fix as of today? Any info would be appreciated.

Re: Problem with Sirius App and EVO 4G with Froyo?

Re: Problem with Sirius App and EVO 4G with Froyo?

Re: Problem with Sirius App and EVO 4G with Froyo?

Its always something with this app. I guess another call needs to be made to them...

Did you ever contact Sirius?

Do you guys pay extra to be able to use it on your phone? Last time I used it it was free and now they want me to pay 3.99/month which is uncalled for.

every now and then I'll get a message saying I'll have to pay the extra $2.99. I will just log in and I'm never charged.

I contacted them and the funny part is the agent had the same problem on her phone. She said she hasn't heard of a fix so I canceled my mobile plan for now.

Re: Problem with Sirius App and EVO 4G with Froyo?
 

I'm not sure if there is a post somewhere, but the Sirius App for the Evo is fixed. I just updated my phone and it works fine. For those that need it, here goes:

You need your MSL#

then enter ##3282#

then hit the advanced tab

scroll to the bottom and at http: proxy port and enter 0 (zero)

then the http address right under that should now be 0.0.0.0.

do this and your Sirius should work. Again I apologize if this is out there, but I just did this about 30 mins ago.

Re: Problem with Sirius App and EVO 4G with Froyo?
 

I can attest that it does work after this fix. If you contact sprint tech support on another phone than your, they can push the fix to your phone or they'll give you your MSID over the phone with the instructions he posted. You canceled you XM/Sirius online subscription a tad too quick..lol... Guys the extra cost to be able to listen online while in your home or your office is great. Then to have it on your phone for working out or walking the dog it's priceless. Especially at price of a 2 liter soda...lol.
