My FroYo based Nexus One has similar behavior. It's extremely frustrating. I'd call Sirius but I have a feeling that'd be about as productive as asking my 5-month old daughter what she thinks I should do. Odds are she'd just put the phone in her mouth, drool, then smile.

Thanks. That's what I've done.

Apparently SiriusXM is aware of the FroYo issue. I just went to re-download the app and they mentioned that a FroYo update is coming and you can be emailed about it.

I just downloaded this app to my iTouch and Blackberry and have not had any connection issues with either.

My 7 day trial is running out and I was looking on the interwebs for a promo code for the online service....

I know it is only $2.99/mo to add to my existing subscription but if anyone has a good promo code to save me some sheckles I would appreciate it.

I just tried out the new FroYo version, and it is a HUGE improvement over the previous one. There's no more constant disconnects like there were with 2.1, and no more constant loops like there were with 2.2 (before the upgrade.) Now I fully endorse the Android version of this app. Yes, now everyone who was waiting for my approval can proceed..

I just called in to XM to verify that the 2.99 that I pay for the online computer use was the same as the one for cell phones, so I can d/l the app and use it without an addl. charge.

Thats all ....

After finally getting to someone that I could talk to, 4-5 minutes thru prompts, then I get a gal that I had a hard time understanding.

She wants my recvr ID's, I told her they are in cars.
She asks if I could get the VIN instead.
Also in car.

I already had told her what I wanted (see above) but she still pushed for me to get my recvr ID's.

I found them online, which she could have also.

However, for what I needed to know she needed NONE of this info.
I understand she needed to verify who I was, but after I gave her my zip code and the first radio number, she should have known.

After she finally answered my question, with a Yes it's all part of the online stuff you pay for.
She then went on to send me out a new radio , which I told her three times I didn't want, she eventually figured out that I didn't want it.

I tried to hang up politely, but kept getting the "Anything Else we can do" So I told her that the Automated system to reach a live person was terrible, which it was.

Finally was able to hang up and d/l this app and verify that it is working fine ....
The first time I tried it, it did the repeat thing, I changed channel and it has worked great since.
