Problem with Sirius App and EVO 4G with Froyo? - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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.

You are telling me that no one with the EVO 4G with Froyo, and has the Sirius Application installed, is having any of these problems?

Actually I wasn't aware of this problem and confirmed its happening for me as well.
Thanks for the heads up...I'll call...

I updated to 2.2 yesterday and I had no issues with the Sirius app except the sound is awful now.
edit: ok..it worked yesterday afternoon now it's doing the skipping/looping problem as described in the OP
edit 2: i switched channels and switched it back..it seems to get rid of the looping then dead air...

Ok, what the heck? It ran fine on froyo yesterday. Now mine is doing the same thing. Seems worse when using 3g, on WiFi I could get through one song.
Are you guys contacting the regular support line, or is there a better point of contact for this?

People still pay for online radio with so many free options?
Sent from my EVO using XDA App

If your rooted you can apply the following.
Code:
adb setprop media.stagefright.enable-player false
Once applied you will have to reboot your phone for it to work.
This probably cause some adverse affect on YouTube streaming..

[Q] Market server errors?

Edited OP. 3G here is spotty, so I thought it might be that market refused to go thru wifi for some weird auth-related reason. I wasn't seeing packets going thru the router, at least. But I turned off wifi, verified that I was able to route packets thru 3G, and still no market.

Gotcha. I do hope they fix it soon. There's nothing worse that being bored and wanting to browse apps. It's funny because I normally don't browse much on the app store. Maybe it's my fault
theres a all around problem with the market for the last hour or so i just tested both my Evo and a old Samsung Moment laying around the house and both are having the same problem.(Also my Evo's Rom is the stock rooted 2.2)
I just flashed a new ROM and thought something was bad. Good to know it's not just me.

It seems to be back up. However, I can't find some apps, and it's not showing free apps in the list anywhere near the top when I search (e.g. my wife just searched for "clock" -- she wants a new clock widget). I'm hoping this is a temporary problem.
Actually I'd really like to be able to filter to get just free apps on a search, but, no go on this.
I think they are SLOWLY getting it back up. I don't have top paid tab in my market. Its loading very slow, and a lot of apps are missing. Hopefully it will be sorted out by morning.

Help a fellow evo user out

Basically, I'm not getting any data at all.(on mobile network)
Originally, the issue started with error no.1012 when I tried updating my profile/prl. I researched on the issue and read that it means that the network was not communicating to my device properly. The problem with that, my data was working.
I called tech support because from my readings, a few things on Sprints side needed to changed. Well after that, tech support could not do anything but recommend that I take it into the store and have my device wire provisioned. So...I took it in and explained what I was going through. The tech said he was able to tell that it was rooted and that the other tech would not touch it if he knew that it was rooted. He said if I unrooted, that they would gladly fix the issue. I asked if he knew what the wait was. He went to the back with my phone and came back and said it would be an hour from when I unroot. I took my phone and to my surprise, was actually on a 4G network. Cool, but when I switched back to 3g, it will no longer work. I'm getting error 1012.
Taking the phone in for a replacement wouldn't be so bad, but I'm afraid that I will not be able to root the new phone.
So can anybody please help fix my issue so that I may keep the phone.that has my virtual heart. Thanks guys, if you can help, it means a lot.

If you are having these issues, first nandroid. Then completely backup everything with Titanium.
Then data wipe/factory reset, wipe cache, dalvik-cache, re-flash radios and ROM.
Then if you still have problems, let Sprint replace it. It's no biggie to root a new phone.

OK so you need to keep calling tech support track who you speak to. Never speak twice to a techie unless they provide help. Never accept answers as final. Start asking questions on plan termination.
Find a better sprint store go at opening time, not lunch. Allow the techie to have time to access your phone, ie let other customers go first.
You know this though. So if you can't get in to the sprint network for data, then ask for supervisors while on with tech support. Insist it's THEIR problem. Hell put your ten dollars a month to work.

it deals with the password the phone uses and it's failing to login and has a reset timer, the techs can't reset the sprint network internal timer for when the password fails and you get locked out, waiting 24hrs lets is timeout and an immediate profile update syncs your phone with the correct login/password
Have you tried re-activating it? Dial ##3272# -> Edit Mode -> Enter MSL -> Data Profile -> Menu -> Restore
It should reboot and reactivate when it boots back up, let it update everything but firmware.

Guess ill do that. I have tried everything else. If not, ill try what was posted above yours solution.
And yes, I have tried many times to reset my data profile. I think ill ask for a wired provision again, but this time with a stock Rom, so they actually look at it.

[Q] CM Push Notifications stuck on registering

For those of you that saw my thread about the notifications being grayed out, I finally decided to shell out the $5 to buy it on the market. Anywho, last night I bought it and decided to refund it, but then decided that I will just buy it today. Before I refunded it, I had registered and unregistered successfully from the update servers. Today, I bought it, and it will not register. It opens up the pop up that says Registering... Please Wait, but then doesn't do anything. I left it for over a half hour on wifi and it didn't do anything. I tried wiping and reflashing the latest nightly, nandroid restoring, wiping the updater data, everything I could think of, and it still just gets stuck on registering. I can't understand why this worked the first time I bought it and now it doesn't. Does anyone have any ideas on how I could get this fixed? I DID get an update notification of tonight's nightly, which was odd since it was before I re-purchased the app and after I had previously unregistered from the update servers yesterday night, if that gives you any insight into the issue. I paid $9 for push notifications and chain flashing, and the notifications don't even work. Very frustrating. (Also got double charged by google, the "refund" went through despite me cancelling the charge, still have to call bank of america on that one)
Thanks to anyone who can help me.
Counldnt tell ya man, but you might want to ask rom manager developer. They make the push notifications possible after all

I have the opposite problem, I can't unregister, it just hangs. I thought maybe if I unregistered and re-registered it might solve the problem of not getting CM7 nightly updates.

I have problems with voice search in that it will not work if there is any background noise (like in my truck). I tried several things and finally gave up (for now) and am using vlingo.
I can confirm this to be an issue on mine as well.
Incredible -> S-OFF -> Updated from .2 to .3
Getting NO response whatsoever, have to practically yell at my phone.

[Q] text messages send fail after OTA

***If your having similar issues, please call sprint to make them aware of the issue.****
Anyways, can any one help me. I updated to jelly bean OTA, and since then my LGOG does not like to send text messages out. My phone will not send messages shorter than 10-20 characters. Im in the CHICAGO area. No problem receiving them, just more often then not i get a failed sent. I have tried resetting the phone hard/soft. I took my phone into sprint and they said I need a new phone. Wtf! Anyone have this issue, or have any ideas to resolve this?
Im pretty disapointed right now, the phone was flawless before the update! Never had a single problem before. Thanks in advance.
UPDATE.. In conclusion,if anyone is interested, I believe the new jellybean update just doesn't play well with my towers in my area of Chicago. With the jelly bean update my voice signal was excellent, but the data signal was degraded. I always noticed, with ics while 4glte was connected, the voice signal was less. With jelly bean it seemed to be just the opposite at all times, great voice so so data connection. Only if i could have both and jellybean wtf?? Maybe someone could help me on here and explain a radio/jelly combo i would have best of both worlds.
Seems to be a Chicago issue.
**Either way I aquired LGNPST and original TOT file and reflashed the phone with original software and have not accepted the jellybean update for now.**
If you would like me to host the files needed PM me, I'll send you links.
I suposed I could have tried to reflash ZV9/ICS or ZV9 radios, but I bricked the phone before trying that.
I must have got the best phone out there. I've never had a problem with any software version we've had.

I have not tried the ## but ill give it a shot. Sprint may have done that.
More on this issue, it seems just not to send short messages. Like lol, no, yes anything shorter than a sentence. I have noticed tht long texts send fine, and picture text seem lightning fast. Whch is great, but cant respond to someone with a simple yes or no. Wtf
I have also noticed a bigger delay between automatic switching between 3g and 4g. Before the update the switching was seamless.
I have also rooted and reflased the ota, same issue. I did not flash the radios seperate tho.
The ## did not fix my text issue. Sprint store did do this as well.
Still have this same issue anyone figure anything out? Anyone have anymore suggestions i can try? Sprint does something on their end, and restore the phone with ## and it works for an hour, then back to the same issue.
Peteyo, are you in Chicago? Maybe it's it's a network issue. I'm having the same problem and so is my buddy. I can't believe more people aren't coming forward with this if it's a national thing.
But let me know if you find a fix, and I'll do the same. And you're right, it only happens on short messages!
Im in Chicago and having the same issues, even with other messenger apps that use stock mms, I also use whats app and have no issues. They seem to be random some send and some don't. If there is a fix please post it is a pain .

***If you have this issue please call sprint, so they are aware of issue****
I have chalked it up to LG sucking! or I supose it could be sprint. The JB update they pushed changes the way the phone communicates with the towers. I grabbed bits and pieces from other threads with data problems and came to that conclusion. It doesn't appear to make issues with everyone, or have the same problems.
What i did, and what maybe the easiest is to reflash the phone back to its original form out of the box. Also im not accepting the ZVB/jelly bean update that messed up our phones. To return to original state, u must aquire LGSNPT, and Sprint`s original tot file. You can find these two in the developer sections. Its really easy and painless and get you right back where u need to be. The toughest part is putting your phone into download mode. vol+ vol- and power buttons.
Make sure u back up your pictures/things you may want to keep.
Option 2 you can **** around and try to find an ICS file, root your phone, and flash it back to ics. Or better yet root and flash ZV9 radios.
However im not sure if these will work. I have not been able to find ZV9 radios.
Option 3 if you have insurance get a new reman phone, or if no insurance pay sprint 50bucks for a reman phone. But you will still have the same issue if you update to ZVB/jellybean.
I wish I new more about this stuff and make a custom radio that has the voice improvements from ZVB/Jellybean, and the data from ICS/ZV9. Probably not even possible.

The strange part of all of this is that my text messages will always send if they are greater than about 10 to 20 characters. Anything smaller than that amount will give me a send failure. Has anyone else had that experience?
Data and Cell Reception have been stellar for myself since the update -- I believe I was having the texting issues before OTA (though I wasn't rooted at that point)

Don't you feel a greater level of sophistication when you have to type an entire sentence?
I'm sure it's Sprint trying to cut down on their SMS costs, but I'm not a conspiracy theorist.
Funny! I guess I should have just added a bunch of quick messages that are complete sentences for a yes or no answers. And the lesser 4g reception does slow down my midget porn downloading. Maybe it really is a win win...

**Either way I aquired LGNPST and original TOT file and reflashed the phone with original software and have not accepted the jellybean update for now.**
If you would like me to host the files needed PM me, I'll send you links.
I suposed I could have tried to reflash ZV9/ICS or ZV9 radios, but I bricked the phone before trying that.

It has not been fixed yet, and I'm starting to believe it may never unless people start complaining more. I strongly encourage people to call sprint support often regarding this, if you would like to see it fixed. I have opened a couple cases with Sprint business support (corporate account here). If more people raise a stink, they have to do something!
Will do. Thanks for the quick reply:thumbup:
Btw.... You guys have one beast of a phone! Congrats:beer::thumbup:
