Amazon mp3 Cloud Player

[Spr8dogg]

I'm sure most of you have heard of the new cloud player from Amazon. If you've used Audiogalaxy (or something similar) you probably wont be too impressed with this, however, the 20gb storage limit is pretty darn nice. I had a question, though:

Has anybody had problems with the 3g/4g streaming? Wifi works perfectly and sounds great. However, it won't stream for me over the 3g/4g. Anybody else know anything about this problem? Thanks in advance.

I've been having the same problem with my droid x. Wifi works perfect but 3g either doesn't work or it takes literally minutes to pull up a song no matter where i'm at. Figured they were working out the kinks.

Update: I've talked with Amazon customer support (who was quite friendly and helpful) and he has to pass the problem up to a technician. May be a carrier problem. If I get a fix I will post here.

I've found a fix! Sadly, this did not come from Amazon. The network problem is actually on Sprint's end. To make the cloud player work you'll need to change your MSL (Master Subsidy Lock).

First, click the link below to make the changes.
Streaming Audio Broken [Fix] – HTC EVO (Sprint) Programmers Unlimited

If you have root access, you don't need to call Sprint for your MSL password, just download MSL Reader from the market, it's free.

If you need any help with this, ask here and I will try to help. Good luck!

I have the HTC Desire through US Cellular. Just began using Amazon Cloud and have had no problems at all. Music plays fine with WIFI and streaming on 3G. It's a great application.
