Auto-hostep app with custom master page does not allow custom workflows

This has been troubling us all day. We have a sharepoint 2013 auto-hosted app. We wanted to simply change the site logo of the master page but it was easier said than done. Finally we had to create our own custom master page with our own site logo to overcome this issue.

Now we are trying to add a custom workflow in our app. But the instalment of the app always fail with this message:

3>        CorrelationId: cec727fc-bbf9-4499-ae36-6a7d05f3ae8c
3>        ErrorDetail: There was an error during the operation.
3>        ErrorType: Configuration
3>        ErrorTypeName: Configuration
3>        ExceptionMessage: Operation is not valid due to the current state of the object.
3>        Source: Common
3>        SourceName: Common App Deployment

After many hours of searching I came across this post that sums up the problem to this:

Do not use the WebTemplate element in the app manifest to designate any of the built-in SharePoint site definition configurations as the app web's site type. We do not support using any of the built-in site definition configurations, other than APP#0, for app webs.

Thus, if you would like to include your workflow to SharePoint-hosted app, you have to use APP#0 template.

I am fairly new to the sharepoint 2013 app development and having so many problems just because we wanted to have a different site logo is making us focus out of the important stuff of our app. Isn't there a simple way for us to change the app's site logo and add a custom workflow? Has anyone come up with a solution?
