Thread: Pandora vs Slacker

Wirelessly posted

This is an easy one.
Slacker, definitely. It's stereo and Pandora isn't.

Slacker all the way IMO.

i had pandora and loved it but tried out the new slacker since everyone was raving about it and i must say slacker is the winner IMO

This thread made me download Pandora again and I have to say I missed it

I started out loving Pandora, then tried Slacker. IMO Slacker is the best!

Is this a true statement? If so Slacker for me!

I am sure it will cross the border soon.

Right now neither of them work properly. Anyone know a fix? I get some weird memory error with slacker and pandora. I assume its a 151 problem? Anyone know? And if there is a fix? Just swap a radio or get the older version of pandora, will that work?

I haven't had problems with Slacker on my storm. I'm on .151 also Ras. Maybe try deleting it from the phone and reinstalling it.

Well it does work... Some times for hours... But it will freeze up after a while and won't let me sign in because of some odd memory problem... Same with slacker, only thing that will fix it is a reboot... Gets quite annoying !

Ill post a pic of the error later tonight when I get outa work, but something is screwy .. A socket error or something?

What if you just turned off and on your radio?

I would have to go with slacker radio on this one. If, I am on my computer I love pandora, but slacker seems a lot better on the mobile phone.

Duno, didn't try just turning radio off, however did just hit the power button, which should so the same thing.. And no go. Once it flips out it doesn't know my account name any more ether, nothing short of a full reboot fixes it. And exactly the same with pandora and slacker, once pandora flips, I load slacker and its broke... Reboot, run slacker for a while it flips, open pandora and its broke... Rebooooot

Same thing has been happening to me lately on Slacker. Only since the OS 151 install. Actually it did it about one hour ago while I was lying around the pool
Only fix I found that works is a reboot.

Error code 500? I had the same problem with strait .151 and am now runnin Lyricidal with .151 radio and seems to be workin just fine. Ill you know though, sometimes slacker would run for hours before it screwed up and I haven't ran it that long. Ill know tomorrow! On my phone (which they are all different) the memory said one thing and the phone act as though it was very low. Jlevy on the other hand had no problems to speak of with strait .151. My phone worked good with .148 , I just couldn't get the same memory #'s I get with .151!
