   I’m having trouble transferring the pandora file to my blackjack II via activesync. Someone please provide detail instructions on how to do it. I really love Pandora.

   connect via Activesync. in ActiveSync, click EXPLORE.
   Copy the PANDORA.CAB to a directory on your Mobile Device when the explorer window opens. close the window and disconnect your device from the computer.

   Back on your device, open File Explorer, and browse to the location you saved the pandora.cab.
   Select and Click on the file to install it.

   Tony- connect your device via USB to to your computer. Make sure you have the latest and greatest version of ActiveSync installed. When you get the message about synchronizing, if you don’t want to sync your phone with your PC, you can click cancel, and then connect as a GUEST. You’ll get a little warning. Open the ActiveSync window and there should be a button on the top that says EXPLORE.

   I think you your device will show up as MOBILE DEVICE under My Computer also.

   Not sure if this will help or not: On your phone, open Internet Explorer. go to tools > Options > connections.

   Make sure “Automatically detect settings” is checked. Click Done.

   Re-open Pandora and see if it works.

   Do you get any errors or messages?

   The other thing you might try is disabling the ATT proxy in your GPRS data connection settings. It may be interfering.

   To unlock the network settings so you can disable the proxy or change wap:

   1. Open the File Explorer (found under Start \ All Programs \ Applications \ File Explorer) and browse to the Windows folder. Once in the Windows folder you are looking for an application called “UAMgr”. The quickest way to get to this file is to push the letter U on the keyboard and the phone will jump down to the files that start with U.
   2. Run UAMgr by highlighting the file and pressing down on the action button. When the application opens you will see a screen that says “UAPMgr/Streaming” in the top title bar and “UA/Streaming Manager 2008″ in the center of the screen.
   3. Press the Menu \ Tool \ Unlock ReadOnly. The phone will then present you with a confirmation screen indicating that Read Only has been unlocked. Press OK and then Close and you’re done.

    Network Jew – Thanks for all guidance here. However, I am encountering the same issue Tony spoke about on 3/25/09. I followed your procedure that you published in response the same day. So far no luck. The Pandora application is up but it’s stuck on “Connecting…” and can’t seem to get past that stage. Do you have any more tricks up your sleeve?
    Thanks.

    I downloaded the file onto my blackjack 2. I downloaded it. How do I open up the application? Where is it?

    I was getting the error “experiencing network communication difficulties” as well running Pandora on my Sprint Moto Q9c. I found that the problem was that my existing account was missing a ZIP code, which must be a requirement added since I setup my account. Login through the web to your Pandora account and make sure all of your account settings are filled in and up to date.

    I was getting the “experiencing network communication difficulties” when running Pandora on my Sprint Moto Q9c. I tried everything until I finally realized that I was missing the ZIP code on my existing account. It must be a new requirement added since I first signed up. Login to your account through your PC and make sure all your account settings are filled in and up to date.

    thanks for the link, this app is working great on my Verizon VX6800 (HTC) wm6.1 phone. i had no trouble downloading and transfering to my device, the hardest part was waiting on ppcgeeks to activate my forum membership

    thanks for the link! i got the app to work on my Verizon VX6800 (HTC made) WinMobil 6.1. no trouble downloading and transferring to my phone. i did have to do a soft reset to see the login boxes, but that was it. it took longer for ppcgeeks to activate my forum membership.

    for Heather – i couldnt find anywhere to adjust the volume, other than adjusting the overall volume for the windows sounds (like alarms and such). my phone has a split control – one for phone sounds – ringing, incoming text, etc. and one for windows sounds – like clicks, wav and mp3, video, etc. by adjusting that, it was ok. maybe the next release will allow us to independently adjust the volume within the app.

    you could also follow the forum thread and post this question if it is really bugging you!
