I did not have access to a computer to better review the source code since my computer blew up a few months ago and I have to rely on my wife to bring home the business computer from her salon to do any coding I would ask for a need a new computer thread to sees if I could get help with someone donating a computer over here but I do not know how XDA will react

So I Ann suck editing with my RAZR

F%ck it, just post the thread and see what happens ;) Might get lucky, Good luck...

Okay so If I use option 11...

choose system... place-apk-here-for-modding\ get an unsigned_ file with proper file size

then choose N to only copy signature over... place-apk-here-for-modding\ get an signed_ file only with a 1KB size.

at prompt for keep folder... remove contents of keep folder and press continue the place-apk-here-for-modding\ get an signed_ file stays 1KB

Am I missing something or is place-apk-here-for-modding\unsigned_ file with proper file size the file I want?
[Android Software Development] Daniel D.:
I installed 1.0.7 into c:\android-sdk and added the Java path-variables. During decompiling I get an error. I can't view the log with menu option 22 (why?), but I can open the file manually:

Why do I've these strange path errors? I think it decompiles well.

Why do I get a signed SystemUI.apk with 20 kb size during compiling? Sorry, I'm new to this.
[Android Software Development] Daniel D.:
Ok, I get the error only with SystemUI.apk. Do I have to setup dependency files? I tried but didn't succeed. The file could not be found, wherever I put it.
[Android Software Development] raziel23x:
Did you place them in the other folder
[Android Software Development] Daniel D.:
I'll try it. Why should I setup them? Where'll they be installed?
[Android Software Development] raziel23x:
Well the instruction clearly say to place the dependencies into the other folder before running the installer script for the system files
[Android Software Development] Daniel D.:
Ok, I overread it. Perhaps you should write "other" folder, it would be clearer. Why do I need to setup them? Which advantages do I have?

APK Multi-Tools Version 1.0.8 Now Released

Version 1.0.8

Seperated the compiler into two options

Updated APKTOOL.JAR to apktool version 1.4.10
[Android Software Development] raziel23x:
this release fixes many of the compiler issues as well as fixed a bug introduced with the update to the keep folder option.

I need to do further testing and need more progress reports of the files as I cant test them due to not having a development computer right now luckly I was able to do this quick release while at the salon because I had to pick up my wife.
[Android Software Development] nizzle1:
Hi raziel, I get an error when trying to set the project, input 23 and it say's cannot find the file specified and the log shows no indication of what exactly the error is
[Android Software Development] raziel23x:
I have a fix in the works I have tested the fix right now but will be a while before I will release to update that will fix the issue as I forgot about a option and miss numbered the options in the main menu.

I have to take my step son to his dads but when I get back as I will have a fix done after testing as my wife left her business pc home for me to use to get some coding done after begging for it
[Android Software Development] raziel23x:
APK Multi-Tools Version 1.0.9 Now Released

Version 1.0.9

Fixed the broken Option menu list

Fixed the broken Complier scripts for system Files

Fixed the broken Complier scripts for non system Files

Added the ability to create Signed None System APK files with both the keep folder option and to bypass the keep folder

Added the Option to create unsigned APK Files with out using the keep folder
[Android Software Development] raziel23x:
I am working on advancing the script further hopefully fixing more bug before the next release.

I am working on fixing adb pull & push bug.

I am also working on fixing the batch optimize and zipalign bug that has been reported.
[Android Software Development] raziel23x:
I have been doing since minor tweaking to the scripts.

Check out Github for all the changes so far they are listed in the file called CHANGELOG.

As I fix or attempt to bugs I add what I have done to the change log. I have a few more things I want to look onto before I release 1.0.10 as I am close for finishing what I wanted to do for this release.

I may after this build work on version 1.1.0 our I may just jump right into working on the new tool called APK Multi-Tools2 or APK Multi-Tool 2.0
[Android Software Development] Phone_Guru:
Download links are down
[Android Software Development] raziel23x:
As soon add the Dell tech comes our to my house to replace my hdd and motherboard I will work on the finding touches of 1.0.10 and releasing good thing I have a backup of all my Android stuff on dropbox because I have a lot of uncommitted changes
[Android Software Development] Singa.:
on my framework-res.apk resources.arsc is not compressed but when i recompile with this it gets compressed. Is there any way to stop it from compressing, please?
[Android Software Development] raziel23x:
Hmmm....

I guess in could alter the script to look fit framework res and do thing differently
[Android Software Development] yakitori2:
Im getting a whole host of errors trying to compile pandora 1.7. I have changed xml files for colors only...nothing else really. When it goes to build resources... I get tons of public.xml errors saying its not defined here.

heres what Im getting
[Android Software Development] waterpolo:
You have to delete the public.xml file before compiling.
[Android Software Development] yakitori2:
didnt work. More errors than before.
[Android Software Development] raziel23x:
Error report please
[Android Software Development] yakitori2:
ill reproduce it later when I get home. Basically it said that resources didnt exist in public.xml or it is undefined...something like that.

But..let me fill in on what Ive done to try and correct this issue Im having with apkmultitool.

1. I updated to latest android sdk

2. downloaded the framework-res-api15.zip and renamed to framework-res.apk and placed in other apk multi tool/ other folder

3. installed java jre 6 (as I was running a newer version 7)

4. open the setup.bat script...install framework...setup directories.

6. copied the aapt.exe from my sdk platform tools to the other folder of multitool

7. decompile fine...recompile no go.

Am I missing something with the setup? Is there a specific version of java I need to install? If so...can someone link me to it.

Is it possible that pandora app devs are using old resource files? Would using api 15 framework fix the issue? It seems to me like pandora excluded the widget files from their resources withing manifest.xml
[Android Software Development] raziel23x:
Have you tried deleting that xml file and compiling
[Android Software Development] raziel23x:
Development has been delayed due to my computer hdd crashed to three point where a fresh install cannot fix and this being the second one Dell has placed in so they are sending me a entirely new PC so it should be here 7 to 10 business days.

What's sucks it's the Dell tech just left my house yesterday replacing the motherboard and the hdd.
[Android Software Development] yakitori2:
I updated my eclipse...java...and android sdk.

I am now getting the error

"file not found"

when trying to compile.

Is there any instruction on how to setup apktool? Complete with links to proper java downloads...where to put framework-res.apk...or any aapt.exe I may need? Its frustrating trying to troubleshoot this blindly. Im not having any luck.

---------- Post added at 04:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:04 PM ----------

deleting the manifest xml?
[Android Software Development] raziel23x:
No the file named public.xml delete that and try to recompile
[Android Software Development] BarberAE:
Any mirrors for the downloads. Can't get any of the download links at the website to work myself.
[Android Software Development] raziel23x:
Have you tried the Github it has the beta off the upcoming 1.0.10 release that I am running a few more test before releasing
[Android Software Development] BarberAE:
I can just download the zip from here? Don't really know my way around github.
[Android Software Development] raziel23x:
Correct

It is basically ready for release I just wanted to test it for a few more days to make sure I did not miss anything or break something
[Android Software Development] BarberAE:
Got it. Thanks a lot.
[Android Software Development] raziel23x:
Download servers are all back online
[Android Software Development] raziel23x:
I am cleaning up done lose ends on the next release which is version 1.0.10.

My beta tester keeps telling me that this should be a final release and I should start work on 2.0. I have not decided yet to do so or not but I will Continue to support this and even still patch this as bugs come up.

2.0 is a complete rewrite from the ground up that will be completely different then this application. It is going to have a completely different look and feel with advanced features not found here. I will create a NEW thread one I am ready to release it.
[Android Software Development] raziel23x:
I am closer to a release as I have found and fixed more issues I feel that I should have the final build for 1.0.10 done by the end of this week or the beginning of next week. I an currently setting up my new PC and it will take a day or two to finish downloading everything I need and I will be able to test the final test builds before submitting them to Github and releasing publicly.
[Android Software Development] raziel23x:
There is a lot of bug Fixes added thus far and I am working on the last few bugs and should be ready for release of version 1.0.10.

I have already tracked down the last bugs but it is late and I will save it for tomorrow.
[Android Software Development] osm0sis:
It's all good man, no hurry. :)

Small typo I noticed going back a few releases: "None System Apps" should be "Non-System Apps" in a few places, might be confusing for some? Beta works great, looking forward to the final and the new GUI for 2.0! :good:
[Android Software Development] raziel23x:
thanks I will have that fixed as well.

Right now I am working on fixing the compiler switch toggle to actually work I noticed when I go to toggle between full decompile, decompile sources only, and decompile resources only function that it would just do full decompile.

I noticed I forgot to add the switch to the actual decompiler script oops.

I will be testing it first though before i add to Github.

It seems every time I am close to this release and I find something new to fix which I then allow a few days of testing before i declare it fixed lol
[Android Software Development] raziel23x:
I have gotten a lot of work done yesterday and fixed some issues with the compiler script. Also finally fixed the decompiler switch so it now actually works. I started working on writing the documentation on the switch in the manual.html. I have also gotten a lot more other things fixed or improved. Check out Github to see all changes.
[Android Software Development] AndyOpie150:
Hi, remember me (probably not). I have APK Multi-Tool installed on the Windows OS (had the problem with CCleaner wiping too much, and messing things up for me), but just recently dual booted Ubuntu 12.04. Would like to get it installed on the Ubuntu side. I have already installed the open java 6 jdk. Just waiting on the new linux version of Your program and install instruction (new to Linux).

I already have the SDK up and working perfectly on the Ubuntu distro. Installed a different custom recovery on the phone and then the one I had originally, using ADB.

I do have Eclipse and the ADT plugins, but got spoiled using APK Multi-Tool.

Note: If the open version of Java is a problem I can try to install the Sun version.

Thanks for all your hard work.
[Android Software Development] mfsr98:
When I try compile system APK files (with settings.apk) I get an error to read the log, option 21 (??, shouldnt it be 23) But i can't use either of this to read the log...
[Android Software Development] 3rdstring:
You should still be able to open the log from the root of the APK Multi-Tool directory.
[Android Software Development] raziel23x:
Yea I broke the log reader scrip t but I fixed it on the upcoming release. Also fixed many other issues all I am waiting on before release is to finish yo writing up the Instructional Manuel with detailed instructions on how to fully use the application. I am trying to make the instructions as simple as possible. As I added a feature to the upcoming release that will simplify decompiling Ander compiling APK files given you more control of what gets decompiled and what stays unchanged
[Android Software Development] mfsr98:
but which file is it? is it apk-multi-tool.txt? I see other too, one saying it cant detect the specified path (setuplog.txt) and other blank (adblog.txt)

I think I did the installation wrong... What I did was puting the APK multi tool file on the root directory of Windows, then run setup and use option 3. Anything else I should do?
[Android Software Development] raziel23x:
The APK-Multi-Tools.log is correct. I am out in the play land area with my son at the mall right now having a father and son day at the mall and trying to avoid any work on the application so sorry in advance to the lack of fixing anything right now.
[Android Software Development] mfsr98:
sry for that then, keep doign what ur doing :)
[Android Software Development] mfsr98:
Im just letting it stay here, you can see it anytime you want :cowboy:
[Android Software Development] raziel23x:
do me a favor and download github version and try again overwrite all your files with the github
[Android Software Development] mfsr98:
I know github (and gitorious, which I use sometimes), but I don't know how to do that. Still I'm installing, on the mean time you could tell me how to do that :/ (sorry for being noob again)
[Android Software Development] raziel23x:
CLICK THIS LINK HERE and open the zip file and over write all your files with what in side
[Android Software Development] mfsr98:
Here y'a go
[Android Software Development] raziel23x:
I still have a bug with zipalign not working just closing the script one I get it successfully run I will have three release ready besides finishing up the Manuel.
[Android Software Development] SB-Design:
Please help.

I try to modify my APK but I can't, I choose my project, then I want to "Extract apk" and the window close itself... Whatever option I choose the window close :(

What can I do ?
[Android Software Development] mfsr98:
ok then... One more thing, isn't Manuel supposed to be manual? Because my name is Manuel and it's weird :o
[Android Software Development] raziel23x:
Not sure what's going on with you're setup as it work just fine on my end.

I have it spelled correctly in my computer lol just misspelled it here in me post lol and on the original html document but I am in the process of writing a actual help document but due to licensing issue I cannot disclose any of the source files in creating the document.
[Android Software Development] mfsr98:
Ok, just that looked weird ;D
[Android Software Development] raziel23x:
The new Manuel will be more in depth then the original which is why it its taken forever
[Android Software Development] raziel23x:
Well actually to tell the truth the real reason behind it taken so long is I am having to completely rewrite it from scratch due to it being a completely new language it is written in as well as there is a lot of the application that has never had any documentation ever written about it. Plus I am trying to make sure all is covered so people will quite asking how to use this skull the time or how does it work all they have to do is read the Manuel
[Android Software Development] raziel23x:
Delete me
[Android Software Development] mfsr98:
hmm are you bugged?
[Android Software Development] raziel23x:
Fell asleep with phone in hand is what happened written a lot of gibberish in me sleep
[Android Software Development] mfsr98:
LOL xD
[Android Software Development] raziel23x:
Minor update to Github.

I uploaded the new compiled Manuel but it is incomplete and there are things in it that are going to be separated into categories and be better organized in the final release. Just taken me an long time to write the documentation up due to time limits with my free time and I have been testing different Linux OS and can't seem to find one that will run on my system in dual boot without lagging like mad. I may just give up on installing dual booting and just vm the Linux side since windows side ruins fast like it should.
[Android Software Development] raziel23x:
Taken a few days break from all things Android all to get my Linux partition setup to my liking. I am hoping to have it setup and use that Side for most if my Android play store applications as it seems that Linux compiles and plays better then windows
[Android Software Development] raziel23x:
I am almost done with the Manuel help file I just have to write up a few more sections. I say that it is about 65-75% completed.

I still have not tracked down the batch optomizer script bug.

nothing happens..the tool don't get me an error, but every time i select on of that three options, the process is just to fast, and nothing is changed..I've also read the word doc...am I missing something?
[Android Software Development] raziel23x:
hmm I think I know what is going on and this will be fixed in the next release as I Will have to do some major updates to the source because I had this same issue with the auto updater feature in the works on the github
[Android Software Development] memnoc:
so no solution??:(
[Android Software Development] raziel23x:
try out the test build on the github as I just uploaded a fix I think will work as I did not have time to test it

for sure mate, but where you uploaded? I can only see alpha 1 or 2 version...

tried..option 15 seems to work, but a certain point a prompt with red script appears and then I can't do anything except to wait..when is finished, it says that evrything is ok, but when i press a key prompt close itself and i can't go ahead with option 16..here is the log...anyway, the zip I have downloaded only include redame others, doc, and script, so I copy those elements and pasted them to alpha 2 version..am I wrong?

http://www.4shared.com/file/V9f4qZoM/log.html

ok when i try option 15 tool ask me for update..that's why i see those red lines..and then ufter tool update itself, option 15,16,17 doesn't work at all, just as before...

So I've had apk_manager for some time now and could never get a systemUI to decompile correctly

I just downloaded apk multi-tool and I'm still having the same problem

This is the error I got when I checked the log.

I'm using the BIONIC with [P]URITY by TH3ORYROM if that helps any
[Android Software Development] raziel23x:
Did you try the one on github or on apkmultitool website
[Android Software Development] Mastur Mynd:
actually I got it figured out... had to drip in moto-res and blur-res along with framework-res
[Android Software Development] raziel23x:
Can you provide how you did this step by step for the others who have not figured this out?
[Android Software Development] zelendel:
Use option 10 to recompile with dependentcies, then drag the proper framework to the menu screen and it will decompile. It is the same for all devices rolunning OEM Roms. Com.HTC.resources for HTC, twframework for samesung and a couple of different ones for moto
