I tried downloading the app once and it failed. I might just give it another try.

It is supposed to be a streaming player that uses gprs or 3g for streaming.

Got it installed on my P800 now. Started it off, selected Virgin Radio, and its been buffering for about 10 minutes now. Still waiting. Either my operator does not support audio streaming or their GPRS service is pretty slow.

it buffers on mine for about 10 seconds, then plays stutter free, the sound quality isnt brilliant , the p900 is partly to blame, dont get me wrong it is listenable, but bbc sport would be more useful to me

im on orange in the uk btw.

make sure you're using your network's internet connection and not the wap connection. contact your network for the internet APN settings if you don't have them yet.

It never did play on my P800. After buffering for over 30 minutes, I stopped it and uninstalled.

Looks like my operator does not support the feature. To be sure, I am on a full internet plan, not WAP. So long

All good.
Have you tried hooking your phone up to your pc, and using GPRS from your phone on your PC. If you unsure how, i'll explain.

I installed the app on my 6630 (havent tried it on my p900 yet. It wont work on my z1010 cos the app only works on symbian or uiq phones) It worked great for the first few days via my gprs wap connection, buffering only took 5 secs too. But over the last few days buffering hangs and then times out and the application closes. Now it buffers and then closes after 10 secs. Ive tried using the internet connection instead, but the same problem. Any suggestions? Or is it a case that the new fw on my 6630 is still buggy and the phone's going to completely lock out again shortly again? Ive even tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app, but no change!
