    It doesn’t support Curve 8320! Misleading…

    Which curves do work:
    8900
    8350i
    8330
    8310
    8300

    I cannot get my 8330 to work. I think it is only the 8900.

    Is it just me or is the download page actually incompatible/unreadable on the Blackberry Bold browser? Kinda ironic I think.

    Boy do I love to waste my time.

    The link isn’t to the download page. When I finally found the right page, I tried for an hour, with EVDO full coverage, and my 8330 would not complete the download.

    downloaded it on my 8330 worked ONCE. after several attempts at opening the app again it would buffer, then just exit out on its own. i tried uninstalling/deleting and re-downloading but to no avail. works well on my husbands 8330.. wtf?

    I read that this app is still in beta phase so there probably have to be a few kinks to work out. It’s working on my Pearl fine.

    I just downloaded the app to my blackberry 8330 and it goes to open up and then shuts down and throws me back to my main menu. I removed the application then downloaded again but it still doesnt work?? Im pretty sure I am not doing anything wrong. Is there something else I can do to make it work???

    I tried this on 4/1 with my BB Curve 8330 (US Cellular) and it noted that it was incompatible. I tried in again yesterday and it downloaded seamlessly; it plays beautifully! I’m a fan :)

    Anyone had any luck on a Pearl 8130 using Verizon? I was able to download and install the program and it runs (provides a nice list of stations). However, every attempt to play says “Buffering” followed by “unable to connect to stream.”

    Works great on my 8330, but while iheartradio is running it ignores my headphones (earbuds that came with the Blackberry) It kinda takes me back to ’66 and my GE transistor radio except that little earphone actually worked. Unless it can be used privately with headphones it is pretty useless.

    Try Flycast Radio or Slacker Radio. Both are free, do not require synchronization with a computer, AND WORK GREAT ON THE STORM 9530!

    I installed to my bb, and the app installed just fine (so I thought) when I tried to access the application it acts as if its starting up, and once in says fetching stations it brings me back to my bb home screen. I unistalled reinstalled quite a few times, same problem : ( maybe it just doesn’t like sprint the app seems to work quite well on all of my friends t mobile devices (sigh)

    I’m having same problems as most people here. Using 8900 Curve with .206 OS. Just plays for a couple secs and stops and continues to buffer a long time and then repeats the process.
