Régis Behmo 1e2166dacf Fix android app build/auth
We had to backtrack from the latest release of the
android app, which is not compatible with the mobile api v0.5 available
in Hawthorn. This should change in ironwood.

Also, we included the correct oauth client ID in the app, which
prevented communication with the LMS.

The android app is now out of beta \o/

Mobile Android application
==========================
With Tutor, you can build an Android mobile application for your platform. First, generate the required environment::
tutor android env
Then, build the app in debug mode::
tutor android build debug
The ``.apk`` file will then be available in ``$TUTOR_ROOT/data/android``. Transfer it to an Android phone to install the application. You should be able to sign in and view available courses.
Releasing an Android app
------------------------
**Note**: this is an untested feature.
Releasing an Android app on the Play Store requires to build the app in release mode. To do so, edit the ``$TUTOR_ROOT/config.yml`` configuration file and define the following variables::
ANDROID_RELEASE_STORE_PASSWORD
ANDROID_RELEASE_KEY_PASSWORD
ANDROID_RELEASE_KEY_ALIAS
Then, place your keystore file in ``$TUTOR_ROOT/env/android/app.keystore``. Finally, build the application with::
tutor android build release
Customising the Android app
---------------------------
Customising the application, such as the logo or the background image, is currently not supported. If you are interested by this feature, please tell us about it in the Tutor `discussion forums <https://discuss.overhang.io>`_.
