Default Brand new BB owner- need Flycast help

Just got my first BB ever and all I can say is wow! This forum is great and I am now addicted. To the topic: I d/l Flycast and now when I run it, it says, loading.....and won't stop loading. If I go to favorites, my favorites are there and will play, but I can't get to the main menu. I re-installed, pulled battery and changed to "allow all" on setup menu. Any suggestions? Thanks- Jim.

Checking now and I'm waiting a while. On EDGE. Selected "Guide." Still waiting on white lined "Loading" screen. It could possibly be a flycast network thing.

Jim. I just started on this BB rave also. I have fly cast and have no issues playing. I am good with computers and programs and the like. I have fly cast playing as I type. Let's say you reinstallled. In the settings how are you trying to connect?

Try putting it at tmobile network. If all else fails get I hart radio from the app store. It is free and is more pleasing to the eye.
