Help Shoutcast streaming radio

[momo5]

Has anyone successfully streamed anything from Shoutcast on this phone. This is a pretty big deal to me, and I cant make it work on this phone. I've tried streaming Shoutcast from Winamp, TuneWiki and Cherry RPlayer. I googled it and it appears people with other types of andriod phones are having similer problems and no one knows of a fix. Its just weird that I had no problems streaming with my Optimus S just a week ago.

Im listening to it currently, rooted ERIS w/ 2.2.1 Nonsen ROM. Funny thing is that shoutcast is not even an option on the wife's phone w/ a rooted base 2.1 ROM.

Yeah I noticed that about 2.1. I had my friend open up his winamp on his ATT Captivate, and he didnt have the option to access shoutcast.

I had no problems accessing it from my Optimus, even before I rooted it.

Just an update to this...Shoutcast streaming is working fine through wifi, but it still wont play when I turn on the 3G. This might be a deal breaker for me.

OK - going out on a limb here.

Don't know if this is related to you or not, but the last Evo update borked Sirius/XM radio, fix is here:

You can do ##DATA# and View without an MSL to see what those are set to, on the Evo it was:

http pd proxy port = 8085
http pd proxy address = pd.vog.sprintpcs.com

Those settings worked fine for months, so they're not the problem per se, but rather some combination of things mucking it up - changing them on the Evo has fixed that problem without side effects.

You'll need to contact Sprint to get your MSL or do a temporary root and use MSL Reader (free in the Market). You'll have to talk to others already posting here about root, I've no firsthand info on doing it personally. (I'm a huge advocate of only recommending things I know.)

If you change those settings and it still doesn't work, change them back to original.

EarlyMon, you are the freakin best! I went to the link you posted, and yeah it was the exact same issue. I changed a few setting and so far shoutcast streaming is working well. Thanks again!

I recently changed carriers to Sprint from ATT and was having trouble getting my Sirius and RadioIO streams to work on my Shift when I wasn't in WiFi range. I stumbled across this thread and EarlyMon's tips and subsequent link helped me solve my problem in 5 minutes. Thanks so much!!!
