Help with Slingplayer Mobile on Sprint Motorola Q

[beestea]

I just installed Slingplayer Mobile on my Sprint Motorola Q and it actually is quite impressive.

The only issue I am having is that it won't display the "favorites" bar so that i can quickly jump between my favorite channels. I searched the slingmedia forums with no luck (also cross posted this message there)

I am using the newest version of Slingplayer Mobile 30 day trial, and I downloaded via the .cab installer on their website.

Anyone else having this problem? Anyone have a fix?

Are you pressing the spacebar? If so, and it's still not working, try an unistall/reinstall, something probably got borked.

Thanks for your reply...

I just did an uninstall and resinstall of the software. And was having the same problem...

Then I played around with it some more, when I would press space it would ask me to hold down the select button to add/edit favorites. I did this already through the menu, but I went ahead and held down the selector button and let the edit menu come up again. I hit done.

I then hit the space bar again and now the favorite menu pops up!


Second question, anyone with the Motorola Q with Sprint using the sling player.... does your phone notifiy you of incoming calls when you are using the sling player? Mine isn't right now, and doesn't even tell me I missed a call.

Thanks!

From what I understand you need to dial "##33284#" then choose "B" then change "G DDTM:" to "Off." That is suppose to allow you to receive incoming calls. I haven't had the opportunity to test it out yet... I took off the SlingPlayer for the time being. I would first search the forum with the keyword "EVDO" to find out more.

With the DDTM switch (off), the Q will ring through.

Turning DDTM off will allow a call thru on Sprint with Slingplayer. I have verified this.
