So Amazon Music at present allows Prime members to download free Prime number music to their mobile device for offline listening. Anyone know where on the device they shop this music? If they're putting it on my phone instead of its external SD card, I'm going to be much more than bourgeois almost how much Prime music I download. Patently they take security measures to keep the Prime music from being freely accessed outside of the Amazon Music App (and thus maybe shared), simply something has to be stored somewhere... I just want to know where, exactly.

Apologies if this is a stupid question.

And so Amazon Music now allows Prime members to download costless Prime music to their mobile device for offline listening. Anyone know where on the device they shop this music? If they're putting it on my phone instead of its external SD menu, I'1000 going to be much more bourgeois virtually how much Prime music I download. Obviously they take security measures to keep the Prime music from being freely accessed outside of the Amazon Music App (and thus possibly shared), but something has to be stored somewhere... I only desire to know where, exactly.

Apologies if this is a stupid question.

i would similar to know this as well. I but downloaded an album to my phone and the amazon music app says there is data on my external sd bill of fare, just i dont meet the files.

using root explorer

extSdCard/Android/data/com.amazon.mp3/files/Music has an updated date of 17 min ago when I started to download, merely there are no files in there..
are they hidden somehow?

partially downloaded...size on sd carte matches what the notification panel size that it has downloaded.

DRM'd Amazon music downloads don't go on SD card ... maybe they can be symlinked?

On my rooted KitKat Motorola Photon Q, here's a sample path:
/storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.amazon.mp3/files/Music/Bruce_Springsteen/Born_In_The_U_S_A_/B00137GCGK_(disc_1)_11_-_Dancing_In_The_Dark.m4a

Some of these will play on my phone (all would play on information technology when I was running in an unrooted JB environment), but not consistently (the Amazon app crashes).

[ actually in that location's no SD carte du jour currently inserted into this telephone ]

If I was able to play these consistently from main storage, and so my next step would be to try creating symbolic links from main storage to the SD card for these. I would like to know whether this would work. I'll report back if I current of air up with a workable test environment (e.g., if I find that these recordings volition play with a rooted JB ROM)

Favorable resolution on my JB ROM

On my rooted KitKat Motorola Photon Q, here'due south a sample path:
/storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.amazon.mp3/files/Music/Bruce_Springsteen/Born_In_The_U_S_A_/B00137GCGK_(disc_1)_11_-_Dancing_In_The_Dark.m4a

Some of these will play on my telephone (all would play on information technology when I was running in an unrooted JB surround), but not consistently (the Amazon app crashes).

[ really there's no SD menu currently inserted into this phone ]

If I was able to play these consistently from main storage, so my next footstep would be to endeavor creating symbolic links from main storage to the SD carte for these. I would similar to know whether this would piece of work. I'll study dorsum if I wind up with a workable test environment (eastward.g., if I find that these recordings will play with a rooted JB ROM)

I was finally able to go this working, but I'k using a JB ROM, not a KitKat ROM. I don't think that the latter should exist a show-stopper, if the Amazon Prime number MP3s volition play "normally" with your ROM, i.e., prior to the gymnastics which I describe in my link.

Hmm ... I tin can't post the link, but you can google for "jae_63 android forums amazon prime symlinks".

If someone else could post the Android Forums link, that would exist helpful ... TIA.

I will reply questions either here on XDA, or on Android Forums.

Hmm ... some reports advise that this problem can be resolved using FolderMount, which has a give-and-take thread hither on XDA.

This would be a much simpler solution than what I've washed ... I suggest trying that beginning. My interpretation of the FolderMount documentation suggests that it might be necessary to use the paid version of that app to access the required /data/media directory. My solution is free, only pretty hairy.

Please mail back here (or on AndroidForums) if you endeavour either FolderMount or my solution.

i would like to know this besides. I just downloaded an anthology to my phone and the amazon music app says there is information on my external sd card, but i dont run across the files.

using root explorer

extSdCard/Android/information/com.amazon.mp3/files/Music has an updated appointment of 17 min ago when I started to download, but at that place are no files in in that location..
are they subconscious somehow?
-------------------------------------------------

I've also looked around and I call up Amazon hides those files in that amazonmp3 folder

For Amazon Prime music, await in
/information/media/0/Android/data/com.amazon.mp3/files/Music

(That is how it is on my JB phone. Your telephone may be different.)

HTC m8 location

so, found the locations piece of cake enough on my htc m8

Downloaded tracks store to internal device path :

/storage/emulated/0/android/data/com.amazon.mp3/files/music > PrimePlaylist (for downloaded playlists)

oddly, when i first selected the download option the app said "choose storage" and i choose my SD card.

I have since institute that it has stored the downloads in both the internal and external locations; I accept no idea why, only here is the external path for the SD card:

/storage/ext_sd/android/information/com.amazon.mp3/files/music > primeplaylist (for downloaded playlists)

Using Cyanogenmod on a Fire telephone

At first the Amazon prime number music app refused to install on my rooted Fire Phone.
I just installed the APK and it worked fine.
Then was but playing effectually with this today. Found the downloaded MP3 files are in a hidden directory. com.amazon.mp3 was hidden. (nice endeavor Amazon).
Information technology was a matter of clicking "show hidden files" in linux and duh; in that location it was.
data/com.amazon.mp3/files/music etc, etc

Not tried; they are DRM laden files. I googled a it and found some pretty "iffy" utilities I didn't trust not to be full of spyware.

on the internal storage <android<information<com.amazon.mp3<files<music. If you are trying to store to sd card and your getting the stubborn 206 error external memory is full, go to your settings<find storage<sd carte du jour<unmount(wait 10 seconds)<mount. information technology should and so save to sd carte du jour. no it volition not let you copy and paste the music from your phone to your sd card. if it is prime number music it volition need to be re-downloaded.

So i see where a downloaded playlist is supposed to reside but what virtually a locally created one? I had my music saved to my SD and my SD got full. So i transferred all my SD menu to a new larger SD card. Now when i go into prime music information technology shows my playlist proper noun but with zero songs. How practise i prepare that? I did not know how to put my playlist back up to the cloud.

Hi All,

I would have the same question to ask y'all.
Is at that place a style to catechumen or playing these .m4a files through other media player?
ie. Google Play Music.

thanks in advance

• #16

I accept the files and we cannot change them as they are DRM protected. I heard somewhere that nosotros demand to create an sound cd and then extract but that did not work either. Any help on this volition exist much appreciated!

On Android, Amazon Music downloads are saved in the folder by default:
Telephone\Android\Media\com.Amazon.mp3\files\media\Music
But y'all can mind to them with the Amazon Music app on your telephone.
If you wish to save Amazon Prime Music to an SD card for offline playback without limits, you need a 3rd-party Amazon Music converter to convert and download Amazon Music songs to MP3.
