This is the first thing I tried. After reloading, it will play one song and then take minutes to transition to the next song.
Having the same issue here. ONLY ON 3G.
I too am on AT&T with a grandfathered unlimited plan. I'm only at 700 MB now and am usually on a wifi.
Pandora works flawlessly while on a wifi network, but the minute I stray from the network or turn off wifi, the slowness starts. Minutes to load the next song.
FWIW, I use the Radio.com app a lot. I have NO problems catching a station and holding it. Data throughput "appears" fine in most of my other apps, downloading emails, and pulling up pictures on Facebook. This seems to revolve a LOT around Pandora. I suspect AT&T is looking at whatever network ports the Pandora app uses and is throttling those ports.
I pay for service from AT&T and I pay for PandoraOne. This pisses me off, as I use Pandora DAILY in my car. The day the next gen iPhone drops, I'm outta here, AT&T.

There is a bug in pandora app that's causing it to freeze when connected to a 3g network. I already emailed pandora support team and they are aware of the problem. When I had issues with pandora I thought it was the AT&T 3G network, but when I load iheart radio it works fine. So it's definitely the pandora app thats causing it to time out.
so it seems like there's been a fix at Pandora. i was constantly checking for an update through the app store since i figured out what the problem was. no update has came out BUT after seeing the recent reviews on the app store, some have mentioned deleting and re-installing worked. I deleted the app, shut down all apps and safari pages and did a hard reset just to be safe. i installed it the app and seems to have worked. all music was playing correctly without any pauses.
