Rob68 said: I've downloaded the 3.0 upgrade to my HTC Desire today, but apart from a new front end login screen I can't seem to tell any difference between this and the previous version. Does anyone know what was changed?

This is what is mentioned in their blog.

-       Upload and download any file type and size

-       Improved audio handling: now the audio file in any folder or filter will begin playing after the first one finishes—it will also continue playing when the phone sleeps

-       Photo viewing is truly full screen: your pictures are larger because the control buttons only appear when you press the screen

Rob68, can't speak to the Desire but v3.0 app is working fine at streaming music to a Droid X. I have just (today) gotten the Pogoplug working in a configuration that is close to what I was after (USB hard drives just arrived) so I haven't had any long time experience but one of the things that I did check was the android app on the Droid X. Started the app and was steaming music from this app from a good hour or so while I explored and fixed other things. FYI.

I don't know if this will help but, all my music is 256k and it usually only takes 2-5 seconds between tracks. Every once and a while it will take longer. If I log out of the app and back in it seen to fix it. All my photo display full screen as well. I'm am on a EVO 4G, Using 3G network.

Streaming works just fine here: HTC Desire, Android 2.1

Not a good experience so far.

Desire Android 2.2
Wifi connected to LAN

Problems with just about anything I've tried to do.

I should be able to download any file, cant find how to download a music track

Music streaming virtually doesn't work (works OK onto laptop)
- "Please wait. Streaming Audio..." for long periods
and frequently
- red box "Either Android does not support streaming of this file or...."
often
- red box "not an audio file" (they are and they work just fine via other aps)
and
- red box "
very occasionally
- 5 or 6 second burst of music!!
several times
- system just appears to hang
and severeal
- force close


Photos - many dont work via filter but are OK direct

Haven't tried video or anything else yet.

Rather lost the will to do anything other than pack my Pogoplug back up.

Maybe I will but lifes too short and I've now installed Dropbox and its giving me the functionality I want.

I'm not initerested in streaming, I just want to upload and download files home.

I have the latest Android App (Version 3) and have two USB sticks in my PogoPlug.

The app is great but each of the drive entries is repeated twice. My current list is

Movies. Photos, Music, Stick1, Stick2, Stick1, Stick2, Files I share, My Saved Files.

It is not really a killer as it seems to work normally when I select the drive.

I do have to wait some time now and again (with my screen dimmed) but it does not happen often (just when I am demonstrating it to a mate)

Keep up the good work

Thanks
