Downloads constantly paused

[trombs]

Hi, I'm a new user trying this out on a Storm. I'm unable to download anything, as it always says "Download paused: no coverage available." Digging into the download log, there are a bunch of messages that say either "Paused: no coverage available", "out of coverage", or "Method OTA not allowed in settings".

I've sent in my logs if that helps...

Cheers,
trombs

Hi Trombs,

By default Podtrapper disables over the air downloading (downloading via the cellular network) since some providers charge for the amount of data transferred. For users without wifi and not using the desktop downloading application this means that there are no available mechanisms for downloading by default. To turn on OTA downloading you can enter the settings menu from the main screen and enable "Allow downloads over cellular".

Whether this works or not depends largely on your cellular carrier, and whether they allow large downloads. The desktop downloading application can allow for downloads through your laptop/desktop while tethered.

Hope this helps, let me know if I can help further.
