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 have an Lg g6

    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 😄😜👊

    Hello @Tomer Kehati we are very sorry to hear you are experiencing this issue. Please bear in mind that listening to music is using loads of data. In case the issue only happens with mobile data, try strong Wifi or make sure your music is downloaded for sure :wink:

    Otherwise, could you please perform all of these troubleshooting steps again, exactly in the order mentioned. Otherwise it does not fix it.

    Please keep in mind this will remove any downloaded songs on this device, but you can easily download them again afterwards, from your Favourites.

    1. Click on My Music/Favourites (the little heart) >>> Gear Wheel JiE3V4t.png>>> App Settings >>> Smart Cache>>> slide the blue button towards the middle of the line.
    2. If you are using the battery saving mode on your device please turn it off for once and try to test Deezer again.
    3. Click on My Music/Favourites (the little heart) >>> Gear Wheel JiE3V4t.png>>> App Settings >>> Disc Usage >>>Clear All
    4. uninstall Deezer
    5. remove the SD card
    6. restart your phone
    7. reinstall Deezer (available on Google Play)
    8. open Deezer and download at least one album or playlist and play one song
    9. reinsert the SD card

    This should fix the issue but please let me know if you need any further help.

    Hello. I am unable to load anthing on my Deezer app please see screenshot above. 

    This started last night and I clearered the cache last night and this did not help.

    I have reinstalled it not too long ago and it's still not working.

     

    I Can search for new artists but when clicking on them, it does not load, nor does it load when clicking on my recent playlists.

    Please can you advise why this is happening? I've tested this on my WiFi and mobile data and the issue still persists.

     

    When checking the online app, it works. 

     

    Many Thanks. 

    Lyle Meiring.
