Should shed some light on the caching issue.

-  enable cell usage   (  possible wifi is not being detected correctly,  mainly an issue with vpn's  )
settings -> audio settings -> data usage  ->  wifi + cell

- try  toggling  wifi  off an on  and reboot phone.

-  reset the apps  phone data   ( varies by model )
phone settings  ->  apps  ->  rp  ->  storage ->  clear  cache/data

-  lastly  try different  wifi or check if it works while using cell  data.

 
Good thoughts. I have a pseudo VPN called DNS66. (It pretends to be a VPN to Android, but it's really just an /etc/hosts filter.) After whitelisting Radio Paradise and restarting, the Main Stream works with the WiFi-only setting. I had tried the whitelisting before, but hadn't restarted RP.

Update: Whoa, maybe that was the problem with the other bits, too!

Pretty much the title says it all. I am using an Android phone - updated to latest software. I am using the latest RP App but I cannot download a cache block. In the past I have been able to on the same phone. Not sure what has gone wrong. Any help would be appreciated.
 

I also have this problem. The cache blocks saved from the old version continued to work, but they are gone now. I have tried reinstalling the new version, with no success. I am on Wifi. I have set all the things I could find to "Wifi only," which seems to prevent playing the main stream as well. I have plenty of space.

When I attempt to cache a block, the "Stop filling cache" thing pops up for just a second or three but then disappears, and the cache block status (there's no actual cache block box) changes from "Pause download" to "Resume download." This matches the behavior I previously reported for the My Favorites and other non-Main streams.

The idea of the new auto-fill caches is really exciting, but I can't get either that or the old-style cache blocks to do anything. :'(

Are you on WiFi? If not, make sure that you are allowing cell data usage in 'Settings' (gear icon at top of screen) -> 'Cache Options'. Double-check your cache storage location also, to make sure it's set to something with plenty of available storage.
