Hey Guys!
Having a weird issue. I have the new Pixel 4XL. Up until today, Pandora was working flawlessly. However, for whatever reason today, I cannot get Pandora to play. When I open up the app, it just keeps buffering. After a few seconds it'll skip to the next song and it repeats; buffer and then skip. When adds come on, it will load the add and it plays, but returns to buffering and skipping. Same thing happens when on wifi. I have full connection. I am able to surf the web, other music apps work like spotify, amazon music, and youtube. I tried all the troubleshooting techniques. I tried clearing cache; the app is installed on phone directly; I tried uninstalling, restarting the phone and reinstalling; I made sure the app was up to date; I tried playing Pandora on other devices and they work (Samsung Galaxy S9+ and Computer); tried different version of Pandora and all the same issue.
So I am not sure what I am doing wrong, but I was hoping that someone would be able to help me out with my issue. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Solutions did not work. But I think I did find a way, still testing it out. So what I did was I logged out of Pandora. I got an error code: 9. App froze and had to force close. I re-opened the app and logged back in. I was able to log in. The app skipped 3 songs then it started playing. At the moment, it is now working correctly, at least on wifi. I will going out in a bit. I will test it further. I will report back once I have more info 🙂
@AdamPandoraOk scratch my previous statement. The app stopped working. Went back to buffering and skipping. However, I tried something else. I logged out again, got the error code:9 again. This time I logged into my wife's Pandora and it worked without any problems. I could use it with or without wifi, everything was playing, skipping, just like its suppose to. So it seems that the issue has to do with my account. Is there some way you guys could a look and see whats going on? Thank you!
I just confirmed. I logged out of the app no error from my wife's account. I logged into my account and it went back to buffering and skipping. I logged out and got error: 9 again. So it's definitely something to do with my account.
Hi there, @King_Salvi. 👋
I'm very sorry for the continued trouble. Thanks so much for providing this helpful information about your experience. I'd like to report this over to our engineering team. Other listeners have mentioned similar issues with that error code and I'd like to share your feedback with the team.
Are you connected to Wi-Fi or cellular data when this is happening?
Thanks again for your help with this! 🎧
Hi Alyssa!
I can definitely help you out with more info. Below is all the requested info.
Are you connected to Wi-Fi or cellular data when this is happening? Both. Wi-Fi or cellular it happens the same on either one.
Current Work Around: I created a new profile using another email I have. I shared my favorite stations to the new profile and I am now up and running. Everything is working as it should. No more error:9 and no buffering. Please let me know when there's a fix. That would be amazing. Again, I am only having issue on my Pixel. My old phone (Samsung Galaxy S9 +), my wife's iPhone, my laptop, and even my car's android radio in my car play my profile on the Pandora app just fine.
Thank you!
Thanks for providing those details, @King_Salvi. This is extremely helpful.
I've gone ahead and shared this with our engineering team for further review.
Appreciate your patience while we look into what's happening. 🎧
