I can suggest a little tricky solution (I've used to "hack" Google's TTS API). Yes, MediaElement can't play mp3 stream not ended by extension ".mp3". Not sophisticated design of course...

But you may create and use an URL redirector! You just need your own site running Apache with URL rewrite module installed.

Create directory, for example, "stream" and create inside a file ".htaccess" with content:

So, you should use the following url for ME Source property:

http://yoursite.com/streaming/file.mp3

MediaElement will determine the opened stream type as mp3 but real data will came from recit.aspx.

It's just an example; your implementation may differ. But I hope you've got my point.

Hey, thank you! It actually did the trick. In a day or two I'll try to release fully working player.

Damm that would be awesome :D
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] Ikkari:
Thats the problem with Zune Pass in most countries it's not available right now. Also, Blade0rz mentioned it already earlier, Zune Pass is not that cheap.

I like Grooveshark better because i can use it with almost any platform, Win, Linux, MacOS, iOS, Android and maybe in near future with WP7 ^^

And you can upload your songs if Grooveshark don't have them, which i use a lot because I'm not listening to common music that much.

That indeed would be awesome :D
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] GuestK00306:
Great! Looking forward to this :D

FYI, the "random song" thing seems to have fixed itself today. URLs are coming back just fine, so there shouldn't be any barriers any more :)
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] CR1M1N4L:
Sorry guys, but I guess I won't be able to do the app because of lack of time. Anyhow, if anyone have enough time and skills to do the app, there's some stuff that might come in handy:

.htaccess file:

Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^(.*?)/(.*?).mp3$ http://$1.grooveshark.com/stream.php?streamKey=$2 [NC]

Stream URL:

Yes, I know, there are more nicer ways to do that. This is just to understand how to do the redirect and use your host as a proxy:

var newUrl = "http://www.yourhost.net/groove/" + url.Host.Replace(".grooveshark.com", "") + "/" + url.Query.Replace("?streamKey=", "") + ".mp3";

Refactored API:

I've made some refactoring to the API (comments, split classes, code optimizations etc). You can download refactored API (source + binaries) here. I hope Blade0rz won't be mind.

Suggestions:

I was planning to make the app to look very similar to Zune player on WP7. I would make a panorama app. In the first page, for starters, "Search", "Radio" and "Playlists" menu items could be added. The second page would display history (album cover) and would open "Now playing" page when clicked. In the third page, by using WP7 toolkit top/new songs/albums could be should if that is possible by the API.

Notes:

Please be aware that it's unlikely that that sort of GrooveShark app would make it to the MarketPlace since using this API is against GrooveShark TOS, therefore it's a great chance they will comply.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] GuestK00306:
I've been in touch with CR1M1N4L and I will be taking up this project, so thanks to him for refactoring some shoddy, 5 minute coding & helping with fixing the streaming issues :)

Technically we should be OK as long as we don't use the Grooveshark trademarks (name/logo), but MS aren't likely to be very co-operative there, so everyone should be prepared to sideload this project! Shouldn't be a problem for anyone though given the relative ease of using Chevron.

Yes, however a valid API key is required and none of the API keys I can find work

[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] iceberg2403:
What's the status on this? Do you want some help with the development? Yuo should chuck the code up into a repository and we can get this bad boy finished :)
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] :
The latest stumbling block is that the Zune hub doesn't allow background music playing for any music outside of the library, so the application has to stay open.

Currently the Grooveshark API is responding with a random song,rather than the one selected so that is a bit annoying too. I don't know the extent of this issue either. It may well be something I'm not passing correctly to the service.

Other than that, the search is implemented, you can login using your grooveshark account, view any playlists you have saved and browse popular songs from Grooveshark.

Anybody who wants to help out, PM me. I have uploaded the source to Unfuddle. I can't make it public as Grooveshark will probably block our access to the Api.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] Blinx:
It exists guys, I did It

Hello guys,

Stop looking for a grooveshark app, i did this app 2 month ago !! (lucky you)

But hold your horses there's one major problem with my app and the current WP7 developpement kit.

I actually made 2 versions of the app and was about to do a third one.

The first one was using a media element and the URL rewriting trick discussed on page 2, but this solution is using my personnal server so I can't make it public cause it's very slow, so I'm only using it for my personal usage. (If someone has a strong server that could host it, i could release this version).

The second solution is using a MediaStreamSource for buffering and playing music in the media element, but the current version in the developpement kit, is not well implemented, so the app don't behave very good. (This solution allowed me to be totally independant of my personnal server and request directly the grooveshark servers).

To get a good behavior with this solution and the actual developpement kit I had to totally download the music befor starting to play it (wich is not satisfying to me).

So the third solution (I was about to developpe) just download entirely the song before playing it. But this third solution has a great advantage, because the music can be played directly in zune, and don't need the app to be open once the music is downloaded.

So guy just tell me, cause I don't mind sharing my code but I think I should release just one version.

And sorry for my english, I'm French !!

[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] politoloco:
OK Guys, please log on to Marketplace and search for MusicShark app, is the closest you would get to Grooveshark, still have some bugs but it works fine to stream the music you want, and even lets you create a playlist so you could hear your favorite music non-stop.

You really have to hurry, something tells me this app won't be on the marketplace for long. and by the way, did I mention it is free!!!
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] PieOfJustice:
Musicshark is great but we still need a true Grooveshark app.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] loomx:
is MusicShark still in the marketplace? I cant find it.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] kwill:
Looks like it's gone as of yesterday. I got a replacement device, and went to install this. First it showed up, but kept giving an error when I tried to install. So, I left it alone and came back to it today and it's gone from marketplace completely! Had a feeling thats what was going on.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] Marvin_S:
If your device is unlocked you can use my app. It has roughly the same functionality. With support for offline-playback. If your device is not unlocked, I just submitted it to the marketplace and its awaiting testing... so Ill post when it gets trough. In the signiture is a link to the topic and the .xap download.
[Windows Phone 7 Software Development] kwill:
Yeah, I actually have your app installed now and really like it. I was unlocked until I flashed a nodo rom. I like it very much, although the one thing I want a grooveshark client for is all the music I already have stored in the application itself :D

Please can you tell me how to install a new kernal through odin?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GMH24:
most kernels here have a CWM version which you can flash without odin, I recommend that!

There is also an app called "sgs kernel flasher" which allows you to flash a kernel right within the running phone!

If you want to use odin, chose pda and no repartion and no pit...
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonni3:
Have you used Odin before ?

1. Put phone in to download mode

2. do not connect phone to usb

3. start odin, select your kernel.tar in the pda selection

4. uncheck re-partition - check auto reboot

5. connect phone to usb - odin will diplay "added" in the txt scroll

6. press start

7. Odin will do it thing & if successful will display a "success 1/failed 0" line in the txt scroll

8. phone will reboot & your good to go.

Remember you do this at your own risk

i assume you mean ClockWorkMod recovery.....

Root the phone...Download ROM Manager....open the app and flash ClockworkMod Recovery...reboot into recovery...if it takes you to the stock 2e recovery...hit re-install packages and it should take u to CWM recovery
[Vibrant General] Robert8457:
Yes as I stated when I hit reinstall packages I get that error
[Vibrant General] geoffcorey:
which rom? i'm assuming you're using an ODIN'd 2.2 rom, and if so, you need to use SuperOneClick to get root, then mount system as rewriteable, and then push untermensch's modded 3e recovery so that you can use CWM with a 2.2 rom.

OR

You can dl one of the voodoo kernels, making sure you have the required voodoo disable key file on your sdcard, and flash the voodoo kernel using ODIN. (which is WAY easier in my opinion)

[Epic 4G General] juejaimon:
Hi all,

I followed this thread : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=798067 about a month ago and completed all the way to 2.3.2

From this, i gather that I am rooted and have a modified kernel.

The about phone shows:

Firmware version: 2.1-update1

Baseband version: S:D700.0.5S.DG17

Kernel Version: 2.6.29

Build Number: Samsung Eclair.DG17

My goal was to only to be able to use Android Wifi Tether.

Since the release of Froyo2.2. I was hoping to get it over the air. I read a thread that I needed to be at something besides DG17 to get the OTA update. I will make that mod, but since i'm Rooted and possible modified the kernel, will I ever get the OTA automatically from sprint?...or is it just manual from this point forward?

Again, my only goal ws to use Android Wifi Tether, if I did too much or need to go back to stock and do a simpler less invasive root process and still can achieve this, please let me know. Thanks in advance.
[Epic 4G General] ryno502:
You will likely need at least DI07 to get the OTA...probably DI18...I recommend flashing to DI18, then rooting.

After that, as long as you have all of the Sprint apps installed you should be fine.

To flash DI18 look in the dev forum for DI18 .tar file and Odin instructions.
[Epic 4G General] juejaimon:
I was afraid that I went to far as I was unsure if I needed the clockwork recovery part for my android wifi tether purposes.
[Epic 4G General] DiGi760:
Rooting generally doesn't break ota updates, but updates may break your root.

Clockworkmod won't affect your update

You need root for your wireless tether, but not CWM.

If you flash roms other than stock, it will almost definitely break ota updates.

The DI18->FroYo update will be the first out, whenever we finally get it. DG17, DG27 and DI07 updates will probably come out later. Some people are having a hard time getting the updates to DI18 (the most recent official update) If you feel up to it, you can use Odin3 to update yourself to a stock DI18 that will receive the ota. Since you have clockworkmod, just do a backup before you Odin DI18 and then use advanced restore to restore your /data and get all your programs and settings back.

I have my first app up. It's a fun action game of matching color or shape. It includes a simple single-player mode, and a multi-player mode. I have some ideas for more to add, but my wife is already addicted to it, so I thought I'd get it out there. So far, I've tested only on a Samsung Facinate.

It's pretty much fun and fast, but I would really enjoy a multiplayer via wifi / internet option, because the 2player option is nice - but srsly, two people on one Samsung Galaxy S....if I want to cuddle, I normally just call my gf ;)

And yes, a tutorial would be nice, but not really needed, you get the game very fast.

[Fascinate General] madcow706:
Actually this has been discussed. It is believed that this chart is an outdated chart from Verizon. There are things on the chart that support it being outdated. I not trying to rain on your parade, as I would love Froyo on my Fascinate before the end of the year as well, I am just not certain it will happen. I know the Epic's Froyo update that was supposed to go live 12/26 got postponed, so maybe Samsung is having issues with Froyo on certain Galaxy S phones (CDMA Galaxy S's to be exact). Either that or they are just deciding to pool resources into a Gingerbread update. Either way the lack of updates and update statuses from Verizon and Samsung is leading to the frustration over the lack of an update. All I can recommend now is patience. We will get it when they decide to release it. Either that or Verizon will get the iPhone in Jan. or Feb. and offer some insane upgrade pricing to entice people to move to that smartphone. Who knows, lol.
[Fascinate General] tallspawn:
Ahh, I must have missed that one, I'm in no hurry but I thought this was something new. Thanks....
[Fascinate General] Falcyn:
I will rain on the parade, because that chart's an internal Verizon training tool that came out before the Fascinate actually launched. This whole thing is getting kind of ridiculous -- Android Central put it up on their website as new, exclusive news, and all these other overeager Android bloggers leaped on it like hotcakes without doing any additional research. Is it possible the upgrade will come out before the year ends? Possible, yes. Likely, absolutely not. But this chart doesn't increase the likelihood one way or the other.

And on another note, as the previous poster mentioned this has been posted before -- actually, this is the third time in as two days -- which is why people generally suggest looking over recent threads before posting something you think may be new.
[Fascinate General] jopusm:
On Verizon's website there are software update instructions, has the 1500 already received an update for 2.1? Traded my buddy for this phone about a week ago and he had no idea what I was talking about when I asked if he ever had to update it, hehe :P
[Fascinate General] Joe T:
FWIW, on Samsung's website they show the Fascinate as having 2.2.
[Fascinate General] jibbypibby:
That is strange. I just saw that. It was 2.1 only a couple days ago. Shenanigans? Or a lead?
[Fascinate General] Joe T:
Talked to Samsung tech support. They confirmed that new phones will ship with froyo pre-installed. They would not confirm or deny if existing phones would receive the update.
[Fascinate General] madcow706:
That is misleading. And this shows under the verizon model fascinate, in case anyone is wondering.
[Fascinate General] madcow706:
I have to call BS on Samsung. I just got a new Fascinate from Best Buy last week (just switch to Verizon on the 15th of Dec, originally got the wife a incredible, but she wanted the same phone I got, so went back to get a fascinate for her) and that phone was new and did not have 2.2 on it. I wonder what kind of BS they are pulling here. I will gladly take these phones back to go get a 2.2 Fascinate before my 30 days exchange time is up. It really doesn't make sense not to release an update to current owners but to put it on new phones (which means it must be ready, or the new phones maybe an updated hardware version?). What Samsung and Verizon are doing here is incredibly stupid.
[Fascinate General] lthibeault:
just talked to a service rep... i know i know.....

i asked why it says 2.2 next to the fascinate on their page...he said

"2.2 will be out ota in the next few days"...

the response was...

good day sir...
[Fascinate General] lthibeault:
they will be shipping new phones with 2.2 that doesn't mean all the phones in stock will be 2.2... and it just changed within the last 2 days also...

I think its time to spam facebook and twitter with our discontent. Really in this day and age with the internet and social networking sites, to not say anything about the update (but put it front and center on your product page that the phone has a version of the OS that it does not) is just showing poor customer appreciation.
