Sorry, it took me a few days to get back to this. First, thanks for the google play heads up. I found it and turned it off.
As to the rest, I'm afraid I'm confused, because some things I don't understand and others didn't seem to work, as follows:
1. By "Latts Matrix Repo" if you mean the zip file: 'skin.aeonmq7.matrix.mod-1.0.0.8.zip' which I found on the first page, it tells me it is incompatible with the version of Kodi I'm running (Matrix).
2. I did successfully install the repo: "repository.kodibrasilforum-3.0.0.zip" but I don't see anything relevant to installing the Aeon skin.
3. The link for cherrypi that's on the first page takes me to a directory, not to a zip download. I have no idea what to do with that directory. I also have no idea what I'd do with the script once it's installed, were I able to do so.
I've never done anything fancy with Kodi, just installed it, picked a skin and made available choices from within the skin, so dealing with repos and mods is new to me. I'd gladly go back to Leila but I have a huge library and I had a hell of a time getting the shares to set up correctly on the nVidia Shield. I'd hate to have to go through all that again.
Any further help would be appreciated.

skin.aeonmq7.matrix.mod-1.0.0.8.zip' is just the skin.
repository.kodibrasilforum-3.0.0.zip is a secondary ropo that will aid with missing dependency errors you might get if it's not installed.
latts repo should be found
here. This is the main repo the skin can be installed from and without it you will really struggles getting skin installed.
Recap:
Make sure you are in fact trying to install on Kodi 19.0 not 18.9 there are major differences, what works on one will not work on the other.
1) Install Latts repo. This can be done by either (a) downloading from link above and installing from zip OR (b) using kodi file manager and adding
https://holybid.com/kodi/repo/matrix as a source. Then using install from zip navigate to latts repo (or whatever you named the source when adding it) and find file 'repository.lattsrepo-2.0.0.zip' likely in repository subdirectory. For more detailed tutorial on installing a repo via file manager use google to find a youtube video on the subject.
I would suggest just using option (a).
2) (optional) Install from zip the kodi brasil forum, which it sounds like you have done.
3) With the repo(s) installed you can either (a) install from zip 'skin.aeonmq7.matrix.mod-1.0.0.8.zip' or (b) install from Latts Matrix repository where you will find it under look and feel\shkins.
I would recommend using option (b).
4) Refer to the first message in this thread for additional steps that may or may not be required. I do know the cherrypi dependency has caused myself and many others grief so I now preinstall that and skin helpers script before installing the skin. Direct link to cherrypi script
here. Skin Helper link takes you to a git hub page where you hit the green button that says code and select 'download as zip' option.
These two items in step 4 may no longer be required since the installation process is constantly being refined and improved. You can go ahead and try without them first but if you get a 'cherrypi' of 'skin helper' dependency not met error step 4 will solve those.
Let us know how it goes. If you encounter errors or failure to install messages please try to provide the complete message it gave. Like "error xyz dependency not met".
Good luck.
