I keep getting this error pop up, not sure how to fix it. I've tried a few things
Remove SD card, uninstall Deezer, clean phone cache, restart phone, reinstall deezer. Same error pops up straight away again. I only started noticing this error recently.

    I think I have found how to fix this. Currently still working it out but iyou need to expand your smart cache if your deezer data is the same as your limit it can't cache any songs which causes it to start and stop error..... working so far only just changed my settings.

     

    If you need any trouble shooters Deezer I would like a job 😄😜👊

    Srry to break it to you but here is he truth: Deezer doesn't know why this is happening and they haven't done anything about it for months now. They are just hoping it won't happen to enough ppl so they can continue to do nothing about it. I am unfortunately a victim of this error as well and their troubleshoot guide is unsatisfactory at best and criminal at worst. They are more or less scamming their users by doing nothing about this. I hope to see Deezer go out of business soon as they've demonstrated sheer incompetence and disregard for their customers. Your only solution forward is to leave the service and find something else because they will not even bother to try to solve this for you.

    please have a read of this article and let us know if it helps: - https://en.deezercommunity.com/android-47/error-failed-to-play-the-requested-content-is-not-loading-812
    I'm a "Deezerhead" (fanboy) and just love music! (Please note even though I love all things Deezer I do not work for Deezer and therefore cannot assist with account issues etc.)

    same issue on Samsung S7 with Android 8.0.0, Deezer 6.0.5.271. I tried deleting cache, removing SD card, restart, reinstall app. After a while the message appears again.

    Hi @ro4pvb1c

    Sorry about that. Our developers are investigating this for a while now. I'll come back here if I get an update.
    But in the meantime, please follow the troubleshooting steps you tried before, but in the same order just to ensure we tried everything. I'd also log out and download our latest version of the app to see if it helps.

    Hi,

    I'm having the same problem on my android phone. I've already tried all the proposed solutions (restart, remove sd-card, reinstall,...) and still nothing.
    Deezer Family subscription and the problem is only on my phone, even when I change profile. Both with downloaded and steamed content.
    Any way to fix this that isn't on this forum yet?
    Many thanks!
