It does not work on my htc fuze. I get the following error message after installing the free trial version and trying to use it:

“We’re sorry, we encountered an unexpected error. Our engineers are scrambling to fix the problem.”

At the bottom of the screen of my fuze is

“Error code: 12”

Thus the installation instructions are probably incomplete.

Why is Pandora available for the i760 but not the i770 (Samsung Saga)?!

You know… I’m a Sprint Treo Pro user, and I’m a little disappointed in Pandora here. On your most recent blog post, about Pandora for Android, you guys state:

“Because we’re a relatively small team we’ve decided to focus on one mobile OS at time with the goal of bringing Pandora to every “smartphone” platform where our users want us.”

Well, people want you on Windows Mobile, but, for whatever reason, you seem incapable of delivering. Maybe I’m ignorant of what’s needed as far as development goes, but I see bunches of Windows Mobile applications that work from phone to phone to phone, with no per-device issues. Applications like Evernote, the Iris Browser, Total Commander, and many more. It seems like all you have to do is simply support all of the common resolutions out there, and you’re golden…

…yet every time I try to install Pandora on my Palm Treo Pro, I’m met with the same damned error message: “Sorry. Pandora does not support your device.”

Why not? It seemed to support my HTC Apache, which isn’t an officially supported device – and this didn’t surprise me, as many of your supported devices featured similar 320×240 screens. I add a measly 80 vertical pixels, and it all goes to hell, then?

I just don’t get it. Plenty of Windows Mobile apps work just fine, from phone to phone, from screen resolution to screen resolution. 240×240, 320×240, 320×320, 640×480, 800×480? In the meantime, you have a massive segment of Windows Mobile users who are worried, legitimately so, that they will never get Pandora support…

Long time listener (in “Pandora Years” at least). But when I go to http://www.pandora.com on my AT&T Fuze, it says that it is not a supported device. At first I thought nothing since its not listed as supported on the official site, however, it does say HTC Fuze in the blurb above. I must be missing something.

Twitter is on fire talking about the new iPhone 3GS, so it’ll be interesting to see how much 3GS.com sells for this Thursday. Keep an eye on how much the site is going for here: http://greatdomains.com/auction/auction_detail.php?language=us&auction_id=57282&tracked=&partnerid=32392&language=us

I would love to see the HTC Touch Pro Pandora app happen. I bought the phone assuming that you would support it…..it’s the flagship phone that Sprint currently offers. Beta testers needed? Sign me up!

I love what you are doing with the Windows Mobile aspect of Pandora. Streaming music live on the go, coupled with an enormous selection of titles, artists, and labels – is one of the greatest things that could come to internet enabled mobile devices.

I’m sure there are sticky spots in the development process as devices are so widely varied – but in the end run it will be greatly praised.

Also – I’d be willing to lend my devices in testing if you need beta users. You can contact me if you’d like.
