Apktool RC3 has been released. This version brings Lollipop support, support for QMGs and merged a patch provided by JEB (The Android Decompiler). After 8 betas and 3 release candidates, I want RC3 to be our last one prior to gold. I'm hoping for our next version to be 2.0.0, assuming no major errors crop up.

#### Changes since RC2

- [#447](https://code.google.com/p/android-apktool/issues/detail?id=447&ref=connortumbleson.com) \- Fixed bad cast of ResStringValue to ResAtr by handling ResStringValue correctly (Thanks whydoubt)
- [#688](https://code.google.com/p/android-apktool/issues/detail?id=688&ref=connortumbleson.com) \- Fixed issue with large windows and linux aapt binaries.
- [#689](https://code.google.com/p/android-apktool/issues/detail?id=689&ref=connortumbleson.com) \- Fixed issue with hard coding extension as PNG.
- [#653](https://code.google.com/p/android-apktool/issues/detail?id=653&ref=connortumbleson.com) \- Added Android Lollipop support.
- [#706](https://code.google.com/p/android-apktool/issues/detail?id=706&ref=connortumbleson.com) \- Added support for `TYPE_DYNAMIC_REFERENCE`.

#### Notes

Please delete the file at `$HOME/apktool/framework/1.apk` before trying RC3\. A change in the internal framework requires this file to be deleted.

This is the first public version with Lollipop support, it is possible I missed something. If something isn't right, feel free to submit a bug via the links below.
