Bring your favorite FM stations to your BlackBerry with TuneIn Radio

Upgraded to BB OS 7.1 and now, TuneIn 2.3 wreaking havoc on my "device media processor is busy". It seems theis version of TuneIn isn't compatible with BB device OS 7.1. Help!

Using a VZW Tour 9630 here...

As far as the app's interface & features, this is great for a free app. I was able to find all of my local stations with about 2 seconds worth of searching - and the only station I couldn't find listed in with my local stations, I found with another 2 second search using their callsign. Usability is awesome

However, I can unfortunately only get 2 of my local radio stations to play. I've got the buffer time set to "Automatic," don't know anything about if I'm supposed to have the APN settings a certain way or not. On the stations that won't play, I keep getting "Stream Error" and/or "Connection too slow or streaming server overloaded." Not sure why I'm able to get some stations to play and not others...any advice?

You can open the log.txt at the bottom of the screen (settings).

At mine it is saying "apn not specified".
That is in my case unfortunately correct cause tmobile won't accept an apn with the bb dataplan.

Does anyone has a workaround besides wifi?

I am trying to make this work for me on my 8330 ( Verizon ). It plays about 3 seconds and then stops, buffers for 60 seconds, and then plays 3 seconds, buffers again, etc. I have lots of free memory space and am up at the latest OS 4.5 level available. But still does not work smoothly.

I love it! Great app!

Really looking forward to using this app, but will not go beyond "Reload the screen -Timeout" message. I had no problem downloading/installing. Tested every connection option (automatic/wifi only/cellular only. Nothing works.

Don't know what APN settings are, can't find anything about Verizon APN or why I need this.

Very frustrating.

Man oh man, for a free app, it is very sweet! Streaming my fave house channels and loving it!!!

I downloaded this application yesterday. Went to the theatre at night, set my BB9700 Bold to silent mode but at a very inconvenient moment the radio started playing spontaneously (I was in the front row). Surely you can imagine my embarrasment. What default setting do I need to change to stop this from happening?

Nobex Radio Companion with none of the stupid ads!

I installed this today on my Torch, and I'm able to listen to the stations through my connected Jawbone Icon. :)

This is a fantastic and AMAZING app!

I think TuneIn Radio is amazing!!! Finally, local radio stations that I can recognize. Was listening to WBLS last night and was happy to see how well it matched the actual radio when I turned it on.

I Love the app !!!! :D
Its aaaaammmmmaaaaaZiiiinnngg!!! :D
Recommend to every and anyone !!! :D

This app actually works! Lol. All the station in my local area work. Tried listening to stations from other states and they work then tried from other countries and it worked!!! Great app. And the best thing about it is that its free! 5 stars lol

I've been waiting for this for a long time. I live in Buffalo, and the stations here are not that great. I enjoy different styles of music (and in other languages, too). Thank you so, so much. I am no longer limited to the top-40 radio playlists..... on repeat.

TuneIn Radio is great! However, I am not able to listen to stations that broadcast in Windows Media stream format (ex. BBC Radio 4). Am I missing a setting that will enable these to work on my BB Storm 2? Or, does BB have another media player that can play ALL types of broadcast streams? Help!!

I am using this on my BB Tour on VZW and I have to say I'm absolutely loving this. My biggest problem with Nobex was that headphone audio was too low. No more with TuneIn. My transit commuting just got majorly improved.

I did not hear about this app here first. I posted this at The Sauce Report here on 10/19/10. http://dcom.me/gD7xk

finally a radio app that actually works in the uk! :)

Can't get this to work. It only works on wifi, I keep getting a error message saying timeout, when not using wifi.
I dnt no how to configure I apn settings hope someone can help. I'm on a 9700 in the uk and network is orange.
If someone can explain what APN that would be great, and does it affect my data or will my carrier have any charge against me?
Ty in advance!

Holy crap this is great. Just installed it and I can listen to KNBR. Screw you, MLB app. Station search and streaming are quick, audio quality is great. I now have a reason to carry headphones around with my phone.

Wow app works great using it right now and loving it about time something like this comes out especially if its free!!! its a must download

I am having major problems on my Storm 1.

- Local Radio lists stations in Atlanta, GA....I'm in Birmingham, AL.

- Almost all stations buffer and then say Stream error.

- The few stations which work play for less than 10 seconds then buffer for another 10, rinse and repeat.

Great app. Nice interface. All stations play. Lot and lots of stations to choose from. Will play with it more tomorrow

This app works really well and besides bluetooth A2DP support is the best of all the media apps I have tried for the Blackberry, which is most if not all. 5 stars for this one.

I've been looking for this FOREVER!!

Thank You!!!

This app is fantastic...it tunes in FM as well a AM stations in different qualities.....i was able to tune in FM stations in Miami, LA, Philadelphia, etc as well as Spain, Italy, Venezuela wow.....tried Cuba but nothing happened there, I guess the embargo is to blame.....using WIFi works perfectly.

This is an awesome app. I cant believe its free. This is all u could want and more in a radio app, including podcasts (which is my new found love) The only thing that's keeping me from deleting Nobex is that I won it in a CB contest. LOL. I'm sentimental.

So glad didn't downgrade my data plan with AT&T. This is by far my favorite radio app! Sorry Pandora.

Love it! Love it! Love it!

ETA - Using 9700 on Tmobile. Works fabulously!

This is a GREAT app! It's small and doesn't bog down my 9700 like Nobex did, and does higher quality streams! I believe Nobex was doing 24K MP3 (or less), but this one does 34K AAC on every station I tried. The streams don't pause/stop like Nobex either, which is very nice!

I have noticed one problem though - sometimes the streams don't play and you have to restart the app to fix it.

I downloaded it to compare to Nobex radio companion and it's WAY better. I used the search box and typed in my favorite band and I got radio stations streaming them at REAL TIME plus a bunch of old radio interviews. Even when I was searching for local stations for preset, I found a police scanner channel for a local city. I found all of this within 20 min. of playing with this app. *Thumbs up*

One more comment I wanted to make.....this app, in conjunction with Yourmuze, and I get everything I listen to, except for the one CC station on neither.....

Keeper for me.

I downloaded and I like it. I will definitely put this to good use.

Nobex and all other streaming "local-radio" apps are now officially in trouble. This is the first app I have found that has ANY of the radio stations in my city. All of the other apps (including IheartRadio) just have the stations from the 3 largest cities in my state. TuneIn has EVERY station in my area except the 2 ClearChannel stations (which IheartRadio doesn't have either so no biggie), as well as stations in other nearby (even smaller) cities. Sound quality on most stations meets or exceeds the quality over FM/AM with an antenna on my receiver (depends on the stream the station has), so I am now playing the radio over its AUX input from my BlackBerry. Better sound quality, more stations, podcasts, simple interface: TuneIn is an absolute winner!

Local radio RULES! This is just what I've been waiting for.

I've never used a Radio app before but this one seemed to appeal to me so I've just downloaded it and I think it's gonna be a keeper. Found the radio station I normally listen to so definitely not leaving my BB anytime soon.

Thanks for this

Whenever I open the app I get either a Timeout or a Critical tunneling error.

Edit: Seems to work on wifi but not over 3G. Any ideas anyone?

Edit2: Fixing my APN settings gets rid of the two errors above, now I'm able to search for stations but get an "Empty or invalid playlist" error

I am extremely grateful to have this app on BlackBerry. Now, I can listen www.talkwithattitude.com on my phone, and keep up with my favorite local talk shows.

This is the first music app that I have tried. Very easy to install, not a large file, worked instantly on my Torch.

Got all of my tab channels here in Toronto. Also got some channels in Italy that I used to listen to when I was visiting.

Simply amazing. Have used this only on wi-fi so far so I have to see if the streaming problems occur on 3G like others have been reporting.

Fantastic app! The only thing I miss over Nobex is the sleep timer.

Works great on my Bold in greater Boston/eastern MA. Only one station I listen to is CC and unavailable, KISS 108.

Only change necessary is allowing you to sort your presets.

This is a GREAT app and it is only 221k. It doesn't get any better than that for my poor memory starved 8330. Thanks.

Nice app. Fast and easy download with a clean interface. Good supplement to iheartradio. Tunein + iheartradio + pandora is a winning combination and they all are free. Works very well. Thanks CB!

I am so happy that this can stream channels from DI.FM!!!! I have been looking for something that would stream the Trance channel without having to use YourMuze until DI.FM releases their own app. Great find!

I couldn't get a download page either at first with Java enabled. But I forgot to switch my browser emulation to BB mode. Maybe that could be an issue for some others as well. Cant wait to run it. I run pandora, slacker, and stitcher about 10hrs a day! Thank you Vzw unlimited data! lol

Anyone beta this and have an opinion?

This radio app worked quickly and immediately. I tried IHeartRadio a couple of times and my BB (first 8330 then 9650) always froze up and had to do a battery pull. No such problems with this app. And it has the stations I was hoping for!

Works great on my torch and on my computer!

U r da man!

Thanks Blackberry Brian. Your link worked great!
JB

I navigated to www.radiotime.com/bb from my Bold 9700 running OS 5. I saw the same page that the link you provided goes to.

The app didn't download automatically and there is no link from there to download the Blackberry App.

CORRECTION: I forgot I had disabled JAVA for something else I was working on. Once enabled I got a completely different page. Thanks.

This is a GREAT application!!!!!

http://d11im0xz45jykv.cloudfront.net/blackberry/5.0/TuneIn.jad

I have enabled java everything in my bb browser and still see no dl link. There must be some setting or url I'm missing???

I have Support JavaScript and Allow JavaScripts popups both checked.

Might be a Torch related issue that I'm having?

Was able to download it here in Canada but the first screen that opens up says "Timeout" in the top right corner. Clicking on "reload the screen" does nothing.
Anybody experiencing the same........

8520 its working in jamaica

Just delete miRoamer. Waaaaaaay better app here coz it actually works!!!

Can Someone Post The Direct Link To The Download Page!! Because when i go to it on my blackberry browser i see no link..

I will be trying this baby out

If you don't see the download link you need to enable Javascript in BB browser and reload the page.

I went to the site from my BB and couldn't find how to download???

Hopefully this is just an isolated problem, but anybody else having trouble getting this thing to stream over 3G? I fired it up and found stations, but never got past like 15% buffering, even though I have a "5-star 3G" connection in an area I don't normally have problems.

How come when I go the site on my phone theres no download link? It just says theres the app available, but wheres the link?

I LOVE IT works great in Canada . A++++++ Thank you CB.

I have been looking for something like this forever, most of the apps i find have alot of unknown stations to me and alot from the Uk...this has all my favorite local stations on it a great app, but still love my pandora

Works in UK, answered my own question. Without GPS, and on Wifi and Network right now, the local stuff doesn't seem to work for me. I just get all of the UK's stations.

Won't play though earphones, only through cell speakers.

I was one of the original beta testers of this app, and i was so excited about this. I almost could not contain myself. I wanted this to be available to you all so badly so you could enjoy it as much as I do. It truly is THE greatest music streaming app available. Yea yea I still love Pandora, but this is different. This is actual radio stations. I love how it know where I am and shows me stations in my local area. It also has a GREAT search engine and can search it's extensive database of stations and podcasts. Besides all the great FM & AM, (including HD radio), there are also many internet only broadcast stations TuneIN has it ALL! And the best part is the simple clean interface, it just works, and it looks good!

sweeet just down loaded this and my local radio station is on there

Does this work in the UK?

Unless you have to create an account, I did not see a download link anywhere.

Edit: I mean that I couldn't find a download link @ RadioTime.Com/bb

...Have Bold WIll Travel~

Wow, this has all my local stations in Ireland. My only radio app from now on

how is this better than I heart radio?

Very nice. Having access to radio station from abroad is a great feature. I am affraid to say "Bye Bye Nobex Radio Companion, you have been a good friend ..."
Also, at 226940 bytes, it is smaller than Nobex (325904 )
On my 9530, it helps a little

I have been wanting a way to get K-Love on my phone and this will do it! Now just if I hadn't downgraded to that new $15/month AT&T data plan. lol

I'll give it a go in a bit...
