Pandora is one of the most widely used streaming media applications for BlackBerry Smartphones. Ronen noticed that it has gotten a very incremental update by being bumped up to version 1.1.2.1, no change log to say what exactly was fixed but surely it has to be something since the update exists right? In any event, grab the download and let us know if you come across anything that was fixed in the comments.

Pandora For BlackBerry Updated To Version 1.1.2.1
cool. my fav app :)
So far I don't see any obvious changes. It does seem to load a bit faster. I believe the update was specifically for the S1/S2 that is running device software 5.0.
So which BB do you have?
Had it since last Friday when I got my 9700 from AT&T.
I went through the installation on my Bell 9530 and then got message "Sorry, not available in your country" after first launch attempt.
Just installed 1.1.2.1 and when I tried to "shut down Pandora" I got an App Error and forced reboot...
installed fine on my Bold 9000. I also notice a new app icon.
As you suspected from the very minor version bump, it's just a minor patch release to fix a few issues people were encountering. The release notes are in a thread in the new Pandora forum on CrackBerry: http://forums.crackberry.com/f191/
Hope they fixed this. Since .328 on my 9530 every song on Pandora has a different volume level ... some painfully/dangerously so over headphones.
i like it so far :D
No issues. Enjoying it.
I'm running it on 5.0 on the 8330. Before, if I tried to turn the volume up, it would skip to the next song. That seems to have been fixed.
Still does the same thing on my Storm 1. This version didn't fix that. :(
I have the first Storm as well, by tapping the up it works holding it for a very short time skips to the next song hope that helps.
wow i thought i was the only one, almost every time i tried to turn the volume up it did the same thing to me..so annoying when it was one of my fav songs...hope that is fixed on mine as well
I have also had the volume fluctuation issue on my 9530 since .328. With me almost every song starts out with a lowered volume even if I have the level set high. When I start to lower the setting the volume will jump up dramatically. It still does the same with this update.
Hmmm not in App world so i actually had to go to the website. So far, so good
Hey karlac and rta53 do you have Vlingo installed? I installed Vlingo and started having the same volume issues that you are describing. After I have uninstalled Vlingo the issue went away. I have a 9530 running .328 and I just checked this update of Pandora and no volume issue as long as Vlingo is not installed.
Hmmm the update hasn't appeared in bb app world yet
No aestetic changes, but one change from the last version:
I have a S1 running 5.0.0.328 and the last version of Pandora (1.1)used to stop within the last 30 seconds of EVERY song. VERY annoying. Anyhoo, that is fixed with this update. w00t!
Hey jmr7192. Yes indeed I did have Vlingo installed. I just uninstalled it this morning and the problem with Pandora went away. The strange thing is that I have not had the volume issue with Slacker. Seems like this is more of an issue with Pandora than Vlingo.
Pandora's latest 1.1.2.1 system still locks up my Storm with App Error 523...has been doing this since 5.0 328 upgrade.
I hope this fixes the issue I was having with extremely slow playing after a few songs, that was getting annoying indeed
Tried installing the latest Pandora on a Sprint Tour device.
Thing is, I have no Pandora icon anywhere, so if I didn't choose "run", I can't use Pandora...
Anyone seen this?
Thanks,
