Really? I had tried the version found here without success . . . Any chance you could pull the .apk and post it up here?

It worked worked with official app previously, when I get a chance to work on this again I will look into it and see why it's failing now..

I forked the source and added Last.fm support back in for you and submitted a pull request. Should be working again now, if you wanna test it on your device first and then upload it to the OP :)

I was just looking at what you changed, most of those files you pulled in from the original apollo still exist within apollomod(just within a different location) and the ones that do not exist have had their functionality collapsed into another file. It must be a path issue thats causing it to fail.

That's odd. Perhaps just moving back to that package is a good option for the time being whilst you figure out the issue in your edited files.

Edit: I just reinstalled the same APK (as in the one from the OP) and now Last.fm scrobbling is working again. Not sure what went wrong, is scrobbling working for everyone else?

Does installing this require installing the original Apollo.apk? the size of the app itself in the OP is pretty small...

ApolloMod crashes in eclipse

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)

I want to compile it eclipse and download the source code from github.There is no error in the project but there are some warnings and after running it on the emulator it just crashes with the message "Unfortunately,Apollo has stopped".Please fix it;its very urgent for me.
Thank You

1. Don't quote a whole post like that.
2. Always get a logcat if you want any help with anything here.
4. Your problem is most likely that you do not have the emulator configured correct, run it on a device instead.
5. I really don't have time to help.

The very minor issue I've encountered is that when shuffle is on, Previous button does not work, it just goes back to the beginning of the song while when touched once it's supposed to go back to the beginning of the song and when touched again, play previous song.

Just curious. Why is this app include permissions to test access to protected storage?

It says the permission allows the app to test a permission for the SD card the will be available on future devices. I've put a firewall on it just in case.

EDIT: I used to use LBE privacy guard, a terribly useful little tool, but last time I ran it on CM10, when granted superuser access for the first time it sent me straight into a boot loop, unfortunate because I loved being able to restrict permissions like that.

Try Xposed Framework and Xposed App Settings to revoke permissions

Hey mate, thanks for the app! It works great on my SGSA but the only problem I have is that it Force Closes if I keep changing the current Music a few times, the app and/or the controller (from the Notification menu) will stop responding and the app will Force Close..

Loving it, but there is just one small problem for me. Is there any way I can make it stop fetching missing album art of the artists? I do not want images appearing next to the songs names while I am browsing my songs.

    I might just end up releasing another version in the next couple days with what I have completed... I'm having trouble finding the time to work on this(12 hours a day, 6 days a week is a killer)

    changes completed so far.....
    extended notifiication
    more small ui tweaks
    image editing
    audio visualizations(experimental right now)
    choice of widget styles (holo light or holo dark)
    and I think that's it so far

    Some people may be interested in this other Apollo derivative, the design is quite different then mine but it is ICS+. I believe he has incorporated many of my other changes in the code base, besides the design.
