I'm having an issue with Pandora on my Bold. When I have Pandora running the device will not ring or stop playing music for an incoming call. I have reverted back to the os ver 4.6.0.167.
I have tried resetting the firewall prompts and has able to get an incoming call once but tried calling my BB 10 more times and nothing.
This morning I wiped the device with JL_cmdr and reloaded the OS. Then installed Pandora from the site. Still no luck.
Any one else experiencing this? Any one have any ideas?
I haven't experience this issue at all. All texts, BBM messages come through without stopping the player and if a call comes through, the music stops for me.
does anyone have any clue how much data pandora is doing? cause i know with att's unlimited data its still limited to 5GB, and i know pandora on the computer is a huge data user...anyone else thought about this?
I am running .167...no problems stops when phone calls come in...but I can play music from the media player and Pandor at the same time...which is kind of cool...anyway...delete the App and DL and re-install...should work.
Official word from Pandora Support is below. I don't have 3G available in my area. Guess I'll have to wait until we have 3G.

don't worry about the 5gb cap on data. with blackberries, they're really unlimitted. that 5gb cap is only for laptop cards. if for some odd reason, u get billed for data overage, just call customer care and have them take care of ur bill. trust me i know.
