If it will say "application not installed" then you already have different version of Apollo installed.

To install this version either delete the app in normal way if it's possible.

If it isn't then go to:

/system/app delete old apollo from there and reboot.

Performance improvements

SORT BY FILENAME!

1.0:

Initial version - not released as it's available anywhere on the internet.

Works great on Z1 whereas old version failed to download pictures.

Please post any feedback :)

Install as any other app. If you get "application not installed" error then uninstall old version of Apollo, reboot (not nessesary) and install again.

This is caused by different apk signature key, nothing to worry about.

If you have preinstalled Apollo (like in cyanogenmod) and you can't uninstall it using built-in app manager, then you have to do it in a different way.

1. Use any file Explorer with root access (eg. Root Explorer, es file manager etc.)

2. Go to /system/app/

3. Find Apollo.apk or anything like it and delete it.

4. Copy this apk to the same directory (/system/app/)

5. Set the rw-r--r-- permissions

(using root Explorer that would be

xxo

xoo

xoo

X for checked o for unchecked, other file explorers chmod 644)

6. Reboot and enjoy. :)

Press thanks if you liked it. It's the only way I know people like this except for comments(which are more welcome than thanks button ;) )

Credits: [MENTION=5077038]7ORO[/MENTION] He made possible high resolution artworks and he helped me with transparent widgets, thanks!

Hemal Shah, [MENTION=218947]crashlytics[/MENTION] Great guy! I was struggling to get Crashlytics to work for some uknown reason (I still don't know why it wouldn't work earlier) and he helped me to get it working in any way he could, but it wasn't only "do this and that". He actually approached me in a pleasant way, formal form became obsolete. I realised that you can actually read and write e-mails quickly. :) Thanks!

You can find my Apollo in:

19.04.-CALIBLACK - ROM - v1.3 - The Dark Projekt (KVT49L) (L5-e610/612) TEAM-OPTIMA

27.04.(E610/612)(ROM-KitKat-KVT49L) CALIBAN-CM 1.1 (CM11)-TEAM-OPTIMA!!!

[ROM][JB] Sami OS 1.2 - Codename: Alpha [July 7th, 2014]

Let me know about any other place you find it. I got asked for permissions only in those three roms above for now. I don't like a rippers, especially when it comes to so simple things. I only ask you to PM me and ask me if that's ok if you include it in your rom or whatever. I haven't said no to any of the requests I got for now. Please tell me about any other place you will see my app or Apollo "1.3", "1.2" as the latest Cyanogenmod version is 1.1. I'll try to get it down. I do not say that this player is 100% mine, because it's all Andrew Niels's player. I'm just the guy that "keeps it running smooth and nice, with new features" tbh. I havent removed Andrew's name or A. J. Lopez's name from the credits and this will not happen. Ever. It's not going to google play either. Andrew's will - can't do anything about it although I would really love to do that.

If you want to use my player in your rom or whatever - send me a PM with the request and let me know how would you like to use it, I'll decide then.

This version is not going to make it to Google play, but it's still going to be updated regularly until Andrew Neal (the only true author of this application) releases it on Google play.

Enjoy! :)

08.09.2017 - Sad news

I always thought that I could continue Andrew Neal's application, develop it further, make it perfect and flawless. I had put loads of time and effort into it. Recently I did what I thought is impossible for me - get it to work on devices newer than LP, yet I did that. I was planning to release it on Google Play when I think it's good enough, so that everybody could enjoy it and have hassle free updates, but unfortunately he wouldn't let me do it.

Thus I am forced to discontinue development of Apollo and let it die at last. It was a nice journey, but unfortunately it has come to an end. :(

If an author agrees to continue his project, I will continue development.

Here's a link to his profile: https://plus.google.com/u/0/115877233289242058609

Farewell!
