I knew it! and they said I was crazy as usual.

Sprint has disabled online radio streaming on their Android devices. Up to now that includes the HTC EVO and Samsung Transform.

This issue is seen on other streaming applications too. Note that AAC/AAC+ streams are not affected and can play normally without any issues. In order to stream MP3 streams you need to be connected to WIFI.

WORKING FIXES!

FIX 1: (tip sent by Keith)
Contact Sprint they will be able to send the phone a prl update which removes the proxy server changes made by previous OTA. Make sure to call from a different phone so the update gets sent properly.

FIX 2: (sent by Arturo)
1. Dial ##3282#
2. Choose edit mode
3. Put in password. You can get the password by calling Sprint and asking for MSL code, or password for ##3282#, they should give it to you.
4. Choose Advanced
5. Change HTTP PD Proxy Port: 0
6. Change HTTP PD Proxy Address: 0.0.0.0


***DISCLAIMER! Be very careful not changing anything else than what is suggested here. NOTE that we are not responsible for any issue that you might have with your phone. ***
