I sent a pm back to a guy asking me for help.

I tried to help him but i am not usually around to answer PM's.

I also don't know more than what is posted on the previous pages here guys.

How to setup this thing is talked about on the previous pages so you all have to sift through it and figure out how to make sure it set up properly.

It is a bit tricky but doable.

This is an advanced program and it's likely you will have problems with setup or the APK's you are working on.

So the biggest aspect to this is searching for info and trying stuff out.

You are gonna have to "Google it" ahahhaha

No one is going to lead you by the hand.

The tool is posted so it's up to you to figure out how to use it ;)

Good luck and don't forget Piracy related talk is forbidden here.

I accidentally got a ban here for it before when i was trying to be careful.

For example..

Discussing the reversing and recompiling of an APK that is "PAID" to circumvent payment is most likely going to get a you a ban.

Changing the FONT or something on a free APK is ok though i think.

Don't forget the biggest tip here.. THE FRAMEWORK

It needs to set when you create the project.

The setting is not in the main options menu.

Not doing that may prevent you from compiling.

See previous pages on that if needed..

And the program i think ships in the installer with an old binary needed.

SO i advice going to the Github page and getting the newer build version and putting it into the Studio.

I already posted a couple times exactly how to do it on previous pages (it's pretty simple)

Again.. good luck (you are going to need it)

how i install Firmwork?
[IDEs, Libraries, & Programming Tools] kbhasi:
I think you need to mention (in the first post) that the .run file for Linux needs to have some permissions changed before it can be installed.

(It's probably too complicated for you to just make tarballs, Debian/Ubuntu packages (.dev), and/or RPM packages)

It depends on the desktop environment file manager being used, but basically, set the permissions for the .run file to have "execute" permissions.

In KDE Dolphin, this can be done by going to the file "Properties", then click "Permissions", then put a tick next to "Is executable", then click OK.

hi,

tried it but apk build fail. after replacement of apktool.jar from 2.2.0 to 2.3.0 version in $USER/.apkstudio/vendor it's much better.

so recommending to switch to latest apktool.

[IDEs, Libraries, & Programming Tools] surendrajat:
Search for Apktool documentation and you'll find a detailed section on frameworks.

Not released but since APK Studio is built using Qt framework, You can compile it for mac using Qt Creator. And if you succeed, let me know I'll upload it to new Github repo.

You need to increase heap size of APK Studio. Go to Edit > Settings > Java Heap Size > change it to 250 or something.

These are few steps (in case you haven't figured out yet):

Decompile app in java with jadx etc. (for reference)

Find where that default value is being assigned

Decode app in smali and modify smali files acc.

Recompile, sign & install

P.S. use latest apk studio from the other post.

[IDEs, Libraries, & Programming Tools] mctiew:
For testing I decompiled a simple apk into Java, it managed to do it. But when I modify the generated java code, it does not seem to take the mod at all. I clicked save and save all and then build again. It does not recompile the modified java source, because when I purposely make an error, it did not even complain.

What do I need to do ? Do I have to compile it in android studio ?
[IDEs, Libraries, & Programming Tools] manybuddies:
The *.java files are there for your reference only. You should edit the *.smali files instead.

---------- Post added at 12:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:36 PM ----------

Can I request an option in the settings to include app signing at the end of a build? Thank you for the hard work.
[IDEs, Libraries, & Programming Tools] mctiew:
Yeah I figured that out already.

For those apk's which was fully decompiled into java source, because of structural differences, I also have problem importing into Android studio.

I would appreciate if there is a guide of how to do that. Anyone has a link to such a guide ?

How to Sign

I apologize if this question has already been answered. (I did do a search in the thread and didn't find any.) My Project->Sign/Export menu is grayed out. What am I missing? How do I sign the built apk?

Also, not sure if it's related. APK Studio complains that my Jadx is not set up properly (it doesn't show the version number), although it has no problem opening the decompiled java code in jadx-gui. I have downloaded the latest jadx and linked the proper jadx-gui.bat file.

[IDEs, Libraries, & Programming Tools] vaibhavpandeyvpz:
JDK is probably not set-up

You need to check if you have Java properly setup in your path. Open up Command Prompt (on WIndows) or Terminal (on Linux) and run

java -version

If you see an output with the version, Java is there otherwise not. In second case, www.oracle.com is your friend.

As far as I can get from your and other comments, I observed all of are having problems when decompiling JARs acquired from dex2jar. I'll make it option in QT release. If you want to do that, just do it otherwise you can play around & recompile smali code simply.

Hope you could wait that long!
[IDEs, Libraries, & Programming Tools] anticafe:
Thank you for fast response.

I have one more request, not sure if it's possible:

We know in Android project, there are many JARs file in /libs, for example: android-support-v4.jar, picasso.jar. It's open source, and we don't need to take time to decompile it.

Could you please add an Option Dialog after choose APK, ask user to choose which files/source to decompile:

[ x] Source code

[ ] JAR file 1

[ ] JAR file 2...

Do you think is it possible?
[IDEs, Libraries, & Programming Tools] vaibhavpandeyvpz:
Sure But Please Note

As far as I know, when an android application is built, all classes from required JAVA libraries are packaged within the dalvik-executable class archive. It is not packaged as a seperate library but all of them are like "merged" with the main app.

So I think, that MAY not be possible but I'll check if apktool/smali can be made to skip specified classes.
[IDEs, Libraries, & Programming Tools] ATMOSF3AR:
this is really productive.
[IDEs, Libraries, & Programming Tools] visanciprian:
First of all, Great tool!

Secondly, I sugest you to update apktool to v2.0.0b9, including smali 2.0.3 (for API-level 19). Updating apktool needs updating your extract.cmd by adding -o option to "apktool d" and reversing output directory with apk (because of the change regarding usage synthax of apktool).

Thirdly, remove the line in extract.cmd

if exist "%USERPROFILE%\apktool\framework\1.apk" del /f "%USERPROFILE%\apktool\framework\1.apk"

and do .cmd with a "adb pull" and a "apktool if" for framework (with a query for phone manufacturer - I'm a Samsung user and need twframework aswell :laugh:)

Cheers! :cowboy:

Why I am stuck on decompile progess when I am open a new apk ? I tried many times still same

I wait for 2 hours still same
[IDEs, Libraries, & Programming Tools] visanciprian:
Try the things I said in my previous post. I had the same problems like you.

You'll need your framework-res.apk and second framework if you're using a Samsung / HTC phone (easy grabbing with adb: "adb pull /system/framework/framework-res.apk LOCATION_TO_SAVE_FRAMEWORK\framework-res.apk"). Install those frameworks with apktool (found in bin\apktool) and all should go just fine! And remember to delete or comment (by adding "rem" in front of the line) the line I mentioned before in extract.cmd file (located in bin directory)

+ if you're updating your apktool to v2b9, don't forget to edit decompile synthax in extract.cmd too!

[IDEs, Libraries, & Programming Tools] visanciprian:
1. get the latest apktool and replace it in bin/apktool/ folder

2. assuming you have your adb installed, go to that folder and open a command prompt window

3. do "adb pull /system/framework/framework-res.apk APK_STUDIO_INSTALL_LOCATION\bin\apktool\" and "adb pull /system/framework/twframework-res.apk APK_STUDIO_INSTALL_LOCATION\bin\apktool\"

4. still in command prompt do: "java -jar apktool.jar if framework-res.apk" and "java -jar apktool.jar if twframework-res.apk"

5. go back a parent folder to bin directory

6. open extract.cmd file with notepad/notepad++ or any text editor and put the word "rem" in front of this line "if exist "%USERPROFILE%\apktool\framework\1.apk" del /f "%USERPROFILE%\apktool\framework\1.apk"" so it will be rem if exist "%USERPROFILE%\apktool\framework\1.apk" del /f "%USERPROFILE%\apktool\framework\1.apk"

7. 2 lines below in extract.cmd, replace that line java -jar ".\apktool.jar" d "%APK%" "%OUT_DISASSEMBLY%" with this one java -jar ".\apktool.jar" d -o "%OUT_DISASSEMBLY%" "%APK%"

8. open APK Studio and do your job :)

Hope it works
