Groovefish Problem
 

Does anyone using this app. have problems connecting ? Im able to launch the app. but once it gathers the list of songs, the app just hangs on downloading the requested song. Please post a fix. thanks. DB.

Re: Groovefish Problem
 

Did you install to main memory? Do you have this fixed copy?

Re: Groovefish Problem
 

I do, and I have the problem with songs failing to start. It will request stream, then load stream key, then go to start song, in which it fails.

PS, not every song does this, but a lot do.

Re: Groovefish Problem
 

Please know the .cab I posted above has this fix applied to it and should work. You should uninstall Groovefish, then install the new one. It has the same verion number as the one in the original thread at XDA but has been modified with this fix. If that doesn't work, you can try this:


Try this manually:

its the .dll file inside of the zip that tx_jaycee posted in post #43
just download the zip file - unzip it - and replace the Groovefish.Web.dll thats in the Groovefish directory in your phone with the one thats inside the zip file that tx jaycee posted

Re: Groovefish Problem
 

this method works for me with no issues.

Re: Groovefish Problem
 

After 4 hours on the same issue, i Finally gave up. It just wont work for me. Here are all the steps i took and still nothing. (1) Uninstalled Groovefish and Installed Groovefish 0.3.2... No dice >.<... (2) Unisntalled Groovefish 0.3.2 and re installed the original Groovefish but this time replaced the Groovefish.Web.dll ... Still No Dice >.<... (3) Uninstalled Original Groovefish and re installed Groovefish 0.3.2 and replaced the Groovefish.Web.dll... Now here i was excited because i Finally managed to get the List of songs to re appear and this time it has the Music Note on the Left bottom corner. But Guess what ?.... NO DICE It Hangs on Requesting stream. I tried to Install NETCFv35.wm.armv4i but my TP2 says i have an updated one.(*Note* After every single install or uninstall i soft reset TP2). Very Tired and Discouraged I think ill just wait for developer to post new upgrade ; ;. How ever thank you everyone for your help. Much Appreciated...

Re: Groovefish Problem
 

Not sure where uou got your .netCF file from, but is it possible, that it may have been the wrong one? Maybe for a Smartphone, and not PocketPC?

I don't know and it sounds like you've spent a good deal of time on it already. So, I wouldn't blame you, if you have given up for now.

Re: Groovefish Problem
 

That is actually the method I used. It made it where it would find songs. and play some of them. Before I applied the fix I couldn't do anything at all with groovefish. I'll try the cab you posted and see if it changes, but i did apply the dll fix.

Re: Groovefish Problem
 

i use the old cab and put dll in groove folder under program files on mainmem, it think mainmem is a key for this, wouldnt work on sd install. i have no song play or finding song issues.

Re: Groovefish Problem
 

Yeah, mine is on the mainmem. The only thing I have no the SD card is fennec. (mozillas mobile browser, because it is like 30 MB installed.) And it finds songs find, and goes through all the montions fine right up until it tries to actually play the song, then it "fails to start song". It's not a huge deal, as I have 7 gigs of music on my SD card. And mainly use groovefish for random things that I don't have on my phone. And I'll say this too, sometimes if I close it and reopen it will play the song I searched. it's a very intermittent problem.

Re: Groovefish Problem
 

Looks like the same version has had an update since I last looked. I had the same version number already, but this one was edited on the 20th, it looks like, by the author. The other one was edited by a member.
Worth a shot!

Re: Groovefish Problem
 

I'll check it out, and see if it changes anything. Thanks.

Re: Groovefish Problem
 

I was having the same issue as you before and this is what worked for me.
1. Installed Netframe 3.5 (Got from Google Search) (Installed to Main Memory)
2. Uninstalled Groovefish that I had on TP2 before that didn't work which was newest version.
3. Soft Reset
4. Installed the cab attached here. (Installed to Main Memory)
5. Soft Reset
6. Started program and is working great.

Side Note. The Music Note image is missing on bottom left, but other than that its plays perfect.
Hope this helps.

Re: Groovefish Problem
 

I'm gonna give it one more try since your posting an easy download cab. Also I been going crazy looking for the "Correct NET3.5Cab." Think you can do me the favor with an URL or even a cab ? Mine just came with Juicy R4 / Manila 2.5 Maybe this is the problem ?

Re: Groovefish Problem
 

This is the one I used. It may not be right, but it does work for me to a certain extent.

Re: Groovefish Problem
 

Added Netframe cab that I used for you to my post
hope it all works out.

Re: Groovefish Problem
 

Mine isn't working on juicy r4 either. maybe he put a newer .net in his ROM? I think groovefish was working for me a couple days ago when i was on energy. reinstalling .net might fix this for us.

Re: Groovefish Problem
 

Maybe the Netframe in Juicy is not supporting Groovefish, you can install cab over and test to see if it works.

Re: Groovefish Problem
 

Ok thats the NET File i already had downloaded. How ever when i go to install it it tells me i have an updated one that i must uninstall the newer one to install this one. How the "Beep" Do i uninstall the one already in the TP2. Its not in the Remove list. Help with this please ?

Re: Groovefish Problem
 

That I can't help you with. I don't have a clue how to uninstall on already in the custom rom. Some of the others here might know what to do though. Sorry.

Re: Groovefish Problem
 

Unlike other cabs that allow you to do this. This one wont give you the option. If you know the way to do this please let me know, ill be glad to test it out. Since i tried everything else, i think my head can take a little more beating. thanks in advance.

Re: Groovefish Problem
 

i ran all juicy builds and had no groovefish problems.

Re: Groovefish Problem
 

It cooked into the rom and may not be able to be removed.

Re: Groovefish Problem
 

has anyone figured out how to get this FULLY working with the newest release (11/25) of mightymikes rom???

Re: Groovefish Problem
 

You've never had a song error out in the debug log? i find that very hard to believe, One thing about Juicys ROM for TP2 though, they dont have the Net Frame Error Messages cooked into the ROM, so you cant even tell why the song wont play.

Ignorance is bliss i suppose :-\"

Re: Groovefish Problem
 

I extracted the Groovefish cab to see whats up with it's code, i found 3 references to this URL but it seems like an old link

when i try to make a search using:
h t t p : / / l i s t e n . g r o o v e s h a r k . c o m / m a i n . s w f ? c o w b e l l = 0 9 0 8 2 6 0 6 it just hangs

the format it now uses is http://listen.grooveshark.com/#

found in Groove 2.005~ if anyone can edit it and recab it to test?

Re: Groovefish Problem
 

my prob is it wont uninstall. i try to says something about wasnt completly uninstalled do you wanna remove from list. i say yes and its still there i try to install new copy of it says do you wanna remove othe i say yes same problem. wasnt completley uninstalled d you wanna continue. can some 1 plz help. i have stock rom 6.5 if that helps.

Re: Groovefish Problem
 

Have you tried looking in your PROGRAM FILES folder in the devices main file directory, to see if there is a Groovefish folder left behind? If so delete it after trying to uninstall. Also look in Application Data and remove any related files or folders in there as well.

Re: Groovefish Problem
 

will that also remove the icon. cause after i try to uninstall the icon stays and is still clickable and it loads. the reason im uninstalling is cause when i try to use it i put in name i want nothing comes up so i check log and says fail,fail,fail on everything it looks for.

Re: Groovefish Problem
 

You should delete the files I mentioned after uninstalling. Then if there is still an icon, follow the steps below.

You can look in Windows folder > Start Menu folder > delete the icon in there, if it is still there.

Then you could restart and try installing the latest copy. Make sure you have .net Compact Framework 3.5 installed first.

Re: Groovefish Problem
 

ok i got another problem i went to uninstall again its not in the list now.but its still installed and runs. i check registy using sktools and total commander and there are no files for groove fish.and can you tell me how to remove icon. i tried to remove it from start menu only option is to move to top. cant remove from all program list eithe.and i got so much installd and stuff i dont wanna have t hard reset if can be avoided.and ty for your help

Re: Groovefish Problem
 

Forgive me if this has already been addressed...

I, too, was having problems with groovefish (the fixed cab version from the author). It would hang on a search, and the debug log was giving the net3.5messages.en (spelling's probably wrong, I'm recalling from memory). I had it installed to main memory. Then I read somewhere that a user installed it to the SD card, so I gave it a go, and it worked like a charm. Don't know why, and don't know if this is a universally applicable workaround, but I decided to post it in case it proves helpful.

Re: Groovefish Problem
 

thx for help.i just did hard reset. i had it installed on sd card deleted all the files. using sktools. and it was still installed. so for now ill just stick with pandora. atleast i can uninstall it when i want without problems.

Re: Groovefish Problem
 

Yeah, I used this one after the program quit working altogether last night, and it still didn't work. ](*,)
It worked fine until yesterday, now it keeps failing to get stream. on both my old program and the new one.
