[APP][JB] ApolloMOD - Modified Apollo Music player(updated 3/10/13)

Description:
This is the great thing about Open source, you find an app that is almost exactly what you want and you can tweak it to make it perfect for yourself!

This is based on CM10.1 Apollo Music source code, with lots and lots of changes. The package name will be ApolloMod from this version forward.

NOTE: You will have to hit 'play' or another button on the widget to get it to change themes after altering settings, I am working on getting the widgets to update themselves after a setting has changed.

Features:
- Reworked ALOT of the UI, some big changes & some small(check the screenshots below)
- Fetches album art from files before fetching from the web
- Ability to edit album, artist, playlist & genre images(long press images on their respective views)
- Tab visibility controls(only show the tabs you wish)
- Grabs highest quality images available from the web
- Ability to choose widget style (holo dark or holo light)
- Extended notifications
- Audio visualizations on now playing screen(experimental at this point)

IF YOU USE MY WORK IN YOUR ROM I WOULD APPRECIATE AT LEAST A THANKS
.

lol. thank you kind sir...

I pushed the changes to my github, and updated the apk in the OP to fix a small bug.

I'll probably have another update to this today, there was something else in the UI that bugged me a little that I am changing now.

EDIT: OP updated with stuff I posted here

new version is up

Ok, I will probably have another update for this again today. This time it will be some new option/functionality added.

It's an apk, not flashable through recovery. If you don't already have Apollo installed you can simply side load it by putting it on your sdcard and going through whatever file manager you have to install it.

Oh, and no update today. I originally started adding native last.fm scrobbling support when I made my post earlier, then realized that now it actually does support third party scrobbling through last.fm's official app, simple lastfm scrobbler and etc. Thats good enough for me, for now atleast.


So I moved on to making it load album art from the files first, before fetching it from the net if it doesn't exist in the file. I actually do have that working, but I have an idea of how to implement it differently. So I'm going to start over and do it differently.
