So I decided to go back to ICS for a little bit to help one of my friends get used to their new android phone (Atrix 2 or HD something) and I noticed that my beloved music app that I've been accustomed to, Apollo, wasn't to be found. Play Music is the only option, and I really dislike Play Music. I was wondering since I still have CM10/ various roms on my computer, can I take the Apollo.apk and have it still work with ICS? I have to be honest, the last time I went all the way up to Jellybean, I kind of just skipped all of the ICS roms (went to ICS, but flashed JB immediately after) I didn't search through other ICS roms for music players. The same question goes for Trebuchet Launcher. I've only ever seen it on CM roms. Is it exclusively build for CM roms, or CM10+ roms?
Trebuchet isn't necessarily a life or death thing, but I would like to have Apollo for the brief period of being on ICS...
Apollo and Trebuchet are both Cyanogenmod-exclusive apps, but Apollo is available as an apk for unrooted phones as well. Search around and you should be able to find Apollo. Idk about Trebuchet.

Thank you for confirming what I thought the answer would be. But I didn't think it would matter if I was rooted or not to install APKs..

According to the article the streaming music doesn't work but im assuming if the cm team hacked wimax they can hack this.
Awesome Bro....thanks for the heads up, and the thread. I head about this earlier today!
Here is the link to the music player...I remember not that long ago being "new"

@verse187 yea, im running lithids gb cm build w/ stock kernel and adw launcher (which is the best 3 dollars i have spent at this point in my life) and it has not fc'ed or been buggy at all on my 45 min commute
Not to impressed with this myself
from my phone duh
It works on myn 4.95 thanks
Swyped from Eva my Mynion running Myn's RLS4.95!
why doesnt it say what music im playing on my notification bar when i pull down
@menendez its a standalone app... we dont have gps on gingerbread yet so i wouldn't expect any integration of this for quite some time... it doesn't give controls at the lock screen either
I think it's pretty slick looking. Plays music fine with no force closes on Warm 2.2. It does show up in my notification bar while music is playing, but it just says the process name.
Kinda slow on my incredible, but plays music fine. Notifications and etc is not functioning correctly in this leak though
Is it just me or are there not any options to repeat a song(s)?
Well I know I picked my phone up and it wouldn't show ANY of my music. Had to go into Settings > Application > Music > Force Stop. That will fix that
i also found out that it bugs out if you exit i=the app and put it in the background
i also found out that it bugs out if you leave the app open

If you're on CM, you add lock screen music control via lock screen controls menu.

Perhaps try the latest nightly, I installed it again just for kicks and it worked for me again. Just installed and it went through, no fc's.
Does anyone have a working link to the app. I just clicked on the one at Android Police and it says it's not working anymore. Maybe if someone could put it in there dropbox and send me a link
I have finally gotten my Aria rooted and running with both Liberated FR008 and CM 6.1. I am looking for people who have tried both and why they decided one or the other. I like the way CM lets you customize the Mod itself but I miss the Sense widgets that the Liberated has on it. I'm hoping that some of you have found things within either Rom that I have not discovered yet to push me in either direction. Thanks for the help.

CM without a doubt. Yea the sense widgets are nice and fancy but to be honest, that's a small sacrifice for complete customizability.

Do you use a Bluetooth headset with your Aria? If so, then CM 6.1 fully implements all of the BT Voice Dialing features that have been added to Froyo 2.2, whereas HTC has not fully implemented all of the BT Voice dialing features. Both of these ROMs will launch the Voice Dialing app by pressing the headset button, however, the Voice Dialing app can apparently be started in BT mode which allows you speak the voice command through the BT headset. On HTC Sense the Voice Dialing app will launch, but it is not running in BT mode, so you have to speak the commands into the phone's mic.
Another thing I noticed is that HTC is not using the Froyo email client which allows for a combined inbox.
Other than that, to each his own. I am running CM 6.1, but I have installed the HTC_IME keyboard; it is the only thing from Sense that I really missed.
They are both excellent roms, but I must agree with the above statements. Especially since CM is coming out with 2.3 for Aria hopefully in the near future.
I liked the sense widgets as well but I was able to fix that craving with beautiful widgets and launcher pro. Life is good on CM 6.1.1. Now if I could just fix my exchange bug that keeps showing up every couple of days...
None. I would choose Liberated R012. Works flawless and it doesn't lag like the Froyo ROM. CM is great but the basic android looks horrible to be honest.
A few things keep me on Sense, even though I really like CM. Last time I ran CM6, it did not have copy/paste in the Email app or the Browser whereas Sense has it. Gingerbread seems to have better text selection, so when that's available for Aria, I'm there!
Also, Gallery 3D does not run well on my phone.
Lockscreen gestures on CM are a pretty huge feature for me... without unlocking the phone, I can draw a heart to call my wife, an H to call home, a C to activate the camera and a V to activate the camcorder. You can use a gesture to do almost anything on the phone, so these are just a few basic examples.
guys I am looking at rooting my phone, but instead of flashing a whole new rom onto it, can I just do the root and have clockwork recovery installed, then can I install just the froyo update ontop of what I already have on my phone?

There is no Froyo update for your phone.
so the froyo rom thats release and is used by attn1 etc isnt that the froyo update? Cause I heard its available in Asia atm.
Also without the update or flashing a new room, but rooting the phone and installing titanium backup etc, I know that I can delete bloatware apps using titanium backup, can I also move apps to sd without having froyo installed but as the phone is rooted, will it allow me to do so?
Thanks again

ATTN is a rom, it is not an update. You have to start from scratch. Also you cannot remove bloatware with Titanium or any other app.
Liberated, but without sense launcher. I love the way sense sync does it's job and keep my contacts updated with their fb and twitter. I know there is ways for this in cm but its not the same. I use launcherpro because sense launcher is kinda laggy.
You will probably get bored sense Widgets after some time. I just like clock and weather widget and there is absolutely the same known as fancy widgets.

I agree that R012 seemed more stable than FR008, and a tad more responsive. However, R012 does not support app2sd so I can't have as much crap on my phone as I do now. I did slim down the FR008 ROM a bit by removing the Mail, MMS, calendar apps, Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube as well as most the Sense widgets (you delete them from ATTN1's zip file before flashing).
I have tried CM6, many people have good things to say about it but the UI just seems so... unpolished for lack of better word. Yeah, this is eye candy, but I like the Sense eye candy. Having 7 home screens helps too. Last but not least, for the life of me I cannot figure out how to disable the home screen animation and it annoys me to no end so CM had to go. Credit where credit is due... it does seem very zippy on the Aria.

Lag? Maybe it's because I am using Launcher Pro but my phone moves on both FR008 and CM 6.1.1. Very crisp and very responsive. The only thing that lags for me is the gallery app in CM. Everything in FR008 is butter.

I second launcherpro! I paid for launcherpro and beautiful widgets and I don't miss sense at all. Launcherpro has a nice calendar widget(like sense) and a nice messaging widget as well as some others. Launcherpro is faster than sense for me as well. Beautiful widgets can look just like the sense clock/weather widget but with tons of skins to choose from. Both are worth every penny.

No, you can't. Titanium backup will not do this on nand-locked phones, even with root. Until S-OFF is available for the Aria, it is nand-locked.
The Froyo IS available for the Aria if you have clockwork - just flash LA FR008 or CM6 - soon CM7.

http://goangeek.wordpress.com/2011/08/21/miui-style-launcher-for-android-devices/
Most importantly, for me, was that also in that page is a link for the awesome MIUI Music app. While I like MIUI, I dislike the iphone style launcher. I typically replace it with Go Launcher, which is readily available from the market on any rom.
Good find though.
UPDATE
Music won't install. Says "Application not Installed". Stupid Cryptic error messages...
You might have to uninstall the stock music app and reboot.
Yea I screwed around with it and got it installed. I also grabbed a bunch of the APK's from the MIUI rom I was using. I got them to finally install but it wouldn't launch... however I was able to open certain things with it but nothing would play.
I also tried the stupid dialer/contacts. MIUI has the sweetest Android dialer around.
Is this working well right now? I might give it a try.
QQLauncher is free in the market and its a good miui launcher that runs smooth.
Music app is working.

I am coming from the SGS Fasciante, so am quite familiar with all this flashing and stuff...but I just (FINALLY) got my upgrade to the SGS3 and I wanted to make sure of a few things before i go messing around.
I have rooted and unlocked and installed recovery...root works fine..even AdFree app works...
Using pure stock rooted..no rom has been flashed...Android 4.0.4 IMM76D.I535VRALHE
I remember reading somewhere that this phone now has some checker built in that will give an error that "Unauthorized software detected"...or something...if you modify the os too much...
Is this still true...? I want to remove or freeze the crap apps that come with the phone, but don't want it lock up the phone on me...Is it better to delete the app, or use a freeze program...any suggestions?
What about OTA updates with this phone?...do I need to be concerned about that... will it one day just deiced to update and i loose root etc....
Also, I flashed the DSP Manager.zip i used on my Fasciante..and it is working..most of the time...doesn't seem to affect Amazon MP3 like it did on the Fascinate...DSP Manger also won't stay on a lot...keeps reverting to stock sound quality....keep having to start stop player app and tweak DSP app to get it to tun back on...any ideas...?

You should only get the "unauthorized software detected" message if you attempt to flash a custom kernel (Or ROM that contains a custom kernel) when you haven't unlocked your bootloader, the latest version of ez unlock (1.4 I believe) will tell you it unlocked the bootloader and flashed a insecure aboot. Check out this guide and this guide for apps that are safe to remove or freeze on your phone (If you think you may need the app again sometime just freeze it rather then remove it that way if you need it latter you can unfreeze), also pay careful attention to the guides and make a backup before removing or freezing any apps. I personally use Titanium Backup for any application freezing or removing needs. If your running the stock Verizon ROM and your rooted there is always the possibility of them pushing an update along that breaks root (Fortunately you can restore a CWM or TWRP backup when you did have root, or use odin to restore the factory image). Further more, an awesome app by the name of OTA RootKeeper allows you to keep root even if Verizon issues a OTA update. I'm guessing DSP manager and Samsung's music player equalizer options may be interfearing with eachother causing the issues you mentioned. Technically this version of DSP Manager is for the international GS3 but it should still work on our Verizon version (As always make a backup before flashing anything). Plus not all parts of the Fascinate DSP Manager zip may be compatible with the Verizon Galaxy S3 once again causing you random problems. Well hope I helped let me know if you need more help .
About DSP manager...work fine in all players..including the Samsung player for flac files..but not for mp3...I did find winamp player works perfectly though with dsp manger I flashed..will have to try the one u linked to...
Edit: no change..appears to be the same zip...o well..winamp player for me...not as nice as the Samsung one...but...yea..want the better sound...

I agree, while the Samsung music player has a couple cool features and awesome UI most of the features seem kinda gimmicky like the sound alive settings, like you said I personally would stick with winamp, which is still a realy soild music player and the great sound and customization of DSP manager.

You should considering rooting your phone and installing CM 10 or AOKP they both have customizable quick toggles and inverted gapps for gmail and you can get regular inverted email too.

flash a custom touchwiz rom such as beans and there should be a quick panel settings in your app drawer to adjust the toggles. Same thing for aosp...also you know where there is a guide wink wink if you need any instructions for rooting,unlocking, and flashing!

I probably will...eventually...but I want to keep stock as much as possible...maybe once the final release of JB for this device is out...and the bugs are worked out.
Use titanium backup to freeze ur apps... Great program, should be mandatory for root users and ROM flashers (imo) . As far as what to freeze, general rule of thumb, dont freeze anything that starts with com or has andy the android as the icon. Be careful freezing any launchers and definately make a nandroid backup prior to any freezing.

I was looking for this thread yesterday. I went looking for a comprehensive list that I knew existed but couldn't find my way back to this lol. This was in the Jellywiz thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=31545527
Not my list, and I haven't tried everything to see what kind of results happen on what so play at your own risk and I would suggest backing up every single app you remove.
I recent went with the CM10 rom and I dig it but I would love the stock music player from touchwiz to work. I have the APK but it wont install (obviously) and I was wondering if any of you wizards out there could lend me a hand? Also I tried CM10.1 and also I dig it but it wont go into dock mode when I put it in my samsung desktop dock, why?
As far as I know, the Touchwiz Music app relies on on Touchwiz framework, which means it simply can't be used on CM10.1. As for the dock issue, I think that's just a bug with CM10.1 which has yet to be fixed. You might prefer a Touchwiz ROM which likely won't have these issues; check here.
