I do not get 128kbps mp3, with the parameter, only with the regular credentials. But it works. Just need to fix one final issue for region bypass to work.

[(GL)gamer765]

This whole SSL issue with region bypass is preventing proper login. I think I'm just going to go the hosts editing way for region bypass since hardcoding the alternate IP will result in server certificate not matching the URL.

so, this doesn't work?

[(GL)gamer765]

It works but it requires a secure connection. Hard coding an IP causes certificate mismatch, hosts method doesn't.

Good idea on trying sdfix to fix the problem saving to sdcard, but I get the same error. I did re-run sdfix and it confirmed it was already applied.

Thought for sure that would work.

Not the end of the world, but would have been nice to have the ability.

The downloading is great, but I really have been wanting the notification controls forever, so I'm happy.

See if doing the following helps:


1) Make sure you are have Pandora version 5.3 installed

2) Uncheck the Pandora Patcher module within the Xposed installer

3) Re-check the Pandora Patcher module within the Xposed installer

4) Reboot your device

5) Manually uncheck all options within Pandora Patcher

6) Manually re-check any desired options

Are you saying that you plan to add an option to Pandora Patcher for patching the hosts file in order to enable region bypass? That would certainly be quite an interesting choice. I suppose it is entirely possible given that applications like Adaway are already able to prefom similar tasks.

P.S. did you ever end up trying to debug any Android apps using that Cydia Substrate extension plus jdb method? I'm excited to try it, but haven't had any situation actually push me to do so.

I want to try the jdb method but I don't have much time all at once to invest in it.

That worked! I actually rebooted after unchecking in, then rechecked it and rebooted again. It was following my directory changes without need for a reboot, so I wonder if that did it or maybe the sdfix app just needed a reboot before it started to work? I was surprised when that didn't originally work.

Thanks!

@ gl Is there any Chromecast support for this? BTW love your app. Keep up the great work!

[(GL)gamer765]

No, there will not be any chromecast support since Pandora doesn't stream to chromecast, chromecast launches its own radioplayer via the web and the Pandora app only becomes a remote (at least this is what my testing has led me to believe)

@lexluthor5, after applying the sdfix, you needed to reboot since it modified a system file and a reboot allows the OS to use the new modified file.

Makes sense and I should have realized that, but when I went back into sdfix right away, it said it was applied.

I have a question about the downloading. Where are the ID3 tags coming from? Pandora directly? I see the song and album artist are populating properly, but nothing is going into the artist label and the album seems to be the name of the song.

Is there any way you could do a lookup in some database and pull the rest of the data to create a clean id3 tag?

I know I'm asking a lot, but never know.

[(GL)gamer765]

I'm getting the tags directly from Pandora. I really don't want to rely on external services such as Amazon or whatever to retrieve tags. That can be an exercise for the user, I will only provide what Pandora gives me, which should be enough to get it recognized by other databases.

Fair enough, thanks again

I finished writing the code for adding the lines to hosts but having slight issue writing the hosts file back.
Edit: fixed
