Having a "hidden folder" issue

I have search the forums and not found what I'm looking for so I will start a thread.
I just used Google play to purchase a album and I selected the download to device option so I wouldn't have to deal with any storage in the cloud. the issue is when I scan folders for new music or using the power amp app, it cannot find this new music. I have used root explorer and can not find the folder Google play placed my purI feel pretty stupid starting a thread for this but any help would be appreciated
Sorry, but when you purchase music from Google Play you have to use their app to play it back, which is Play music. I do not believe there is an option to download your music, because it is a cloud based service. Amazon mp3 is the same thing as google play music, but you have the option to download your music rather than only stream it, which is much better imo.

I was afraid this is what I would find out. I normally purchase my music from Amazon via the download function. Kinda pissed I made the purchase now and can't burn a copy of it for the CD player in the car.
He is correct, can "only" be played via the Google Music app, but there is a work around. Amazon does let you download instantly, but music is 260kbs, Google is 320kbs. You can download your google Music on your pc and manually transfer to your device like any other mp3, or even upload it to amazon and download from there.
Google Music removes the instant dl, but adds full mp3 quality sound.
You then can use any music app.

This is correct... The website allows 2 downloads of each song, presumably so you don't download it to all of your friends computers.
However, you will find the files under /data/data/com.google.android.music/files, but unfortunately the filenames are just numbers, again presumably because they don't want you to copy the songs. It will just be a pain to find which is which.

A music player that show musics image cover on lockscreen

So, when I look up for a music player, I only need 3 features :
_Sort song by last added/modified
_Clic on a song and "listen after the one currently playing"
_Having my lockscreen background set with the music image cover
So far on my P9 Lite, I have not been able to have all of the 3.
_Google music does not detect my music's image cover
_Huawei player cant sort, nor have the button I need
_Phonograph cant set my music image as lock screen cover
I am only listenning to music from my SD card.
If anyone has a solution regarding any of the 3apps I ve tried, or an app that have been prove to work fine with my criteria, I ll be really happy.
Thanks.
I can recommend you BlackPlayer free
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kodarkooperativet.blackplayerfree
or EX version which I'm using
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kodarkooperativet.blackplayerex
But for the 3rd criteria you will need root for every music app to show cover on lockscreen because it's a Huawei issue or limitation.

Alternative to google play music?

Been using google play music for many years. But with the latest update it's not working well on nougat roms and when its working, it again and again asks to subscribe. Offline music search gets crippled.
So any suggestions of a music app that supports searching and choosing what to play next?
thanks.

Power amp, best app i've ever used, easy and many cool features.
Are you looking for a local player or streaming? Makes a huge difference...
n7player, Neutron, BlackPlayer, MediaMonkey, Pulsar, or PowerAMP as mentioned before...
God... I miss WinAMP!!!
Shuttle its pretty nice, but im using this port https://forum.xda-developers.com/an...sony-xperia-music-9-3-5-0-0-port-apk-t3555386
@acejavelin I'm looking for a local player.
I personally like VLC for its ability to play formats like WMA. It does have a search function and ability to create playlists.
Black Player EX is the best to use
@acejavelin Really strange, when I got this phone 8 months ago and logged into Google the first time it reinstalled Winamp for me, but it is not in the play store or my app list.
I've used PowerAMP for over 3 years, love it.

music player

Hi all, anybody know of a music player that will syce between multiple devices including a pc? I usually use the Amazon music app but they've discontinued music uploads. Amy help would be great thanks.
Google play music is not without its flaws but it will at least do this (as long as you can live with uploading only from the PC or by using workarounds like a cloud storage synced folder).
I never noticed Amazon had disabled uploads for non-paying customers - there were things I liked better about the player, but the free storage limit was too small to be useful to me anyway.
if you use iTunes you can use iSyncr and sync your playlists to your android devices and use Poweramp or a music player of your choice. Poweramp is a top notch player with a high quality EQ btw. I used to use Google Play Music from time to time but it is lousy at syncing from my computer to the cloud and to the phone and tablet. it adds the same albums like 4 times over in the playlists and gets them all screwed up. So i gave up.

This is googles sync tool, point it at your music folder on your PC and let it rip. Songs will be streamable from the Google music app.

Essential apps missing

I just received my u ultra and noticed that there's no gallery and no music player. I am on stock nougat (and in Europe if that's of any importance). Is it normal that these apps are missing?
You can look for them in apk mirror

It's normal. HTC replaced HTC Gallery and HTC Music with Google Photos and Google Play Music from HTC 10.
Thats correct. anyway i prefer third party apps for music and gallery. Google photos is very good gallery and you can also install quick pic if you want. I personally have both. regarding the music player - i prefer neutron even though it is paid. with oreo update even the high res option in neutron is working.
