I'm not seeing any crashes. Please describe the circumstances under which it crashes so I can attempt to reproduce it.

I've been following this project for a while but had no need for it. Decided to give it a try and I was running into the same situation with crashing on downloading.

I have a Motorola Xoom which I just modified the partition of to allow me to run KitKat 4.4.2. This version has the SD card changes to prevent application writes and even though I made the appropriate modification to allow it as follows:

you can edit /etc/permissions/platform.xml and add a group to WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE

Original:
<permission name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" >
<group gid="sdcard_rw" />
</permission>

Add the media_rw group:
<permission name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" >
<group gid="sdcard_rw" />
<group gid="media_rw" />
</permission>

it seems that this may be responsible for the crashing when downloading; at least in my case.

Changed the download location to Internal Storage and seems to be working fine now.

Yes, kit Kat enforces new permissions which prevent writing to the external SD, so downloading to it results in crashes.

When I download now it doesn't append the file extension (.mp3). Other than that no issues with the new version... working great as usual.

thanks for building this!!

I designed the downloader to append the mp3 extension only when 128kbps mp3 support is enabled as well, otherwise it defaults to m4a extension.

Thanks. Sorry for useless post of issue-- just tried it a few more times and the extension is appropriately added.

looking forward for region patch. thanks.

My brief testing would seem to indicate another solid release by gamer765! :)

On a separate note, I just noticed that the original post would seem to indicate that Pandora is only officially supported in the United States. This is actually not true. In addition to the United States, Pandora also officially supports Australia and New Zealand. This information might be of use to some when for example choosing a VPN, ectcetera.

This was meant as a fix for the 5.3 update. The region bypass patch broke sometime last week and I haven't had time to fix that yet.

This is not a nag, I appreciate what you're doing, however if possible please try to fix the region bypass working. It's sorely needed outside the US.

Many thanks.

try using hola .. set pandora to usa plus your browser .. seems to work for me .. until the patch is fixed ..

ps thank you for huge effort and commitment to your project

how does the region patcher works? does it make the app use a different dns server? maybe add an option for using my own server on the patcher?
also would this be possible to work without root? thanks =)

Waiting for the region patch as well.

Thank you.

Edited first post with information from NateBroChill as well as a notice of region bypass being broken again.

Everything works fine but when I try to click on the THUMBS UP to download the song...nothing happens. I set the folder where the download goes to but nothing. I even try on the external SD Card and Internal SD Card. Any fix? and Yes it is enabled in the patcher.

Same thing happened to me when originally updating to this version. Go into Pandora Patcher's options and untick, then re-tick the download option. Exit out of app and try pandora again, should work.
