It is a tool for reengineering 3rd party, closed, binary Android apps. It can decode resources to nearly original form and rebuild them after making some modifications; it makes possible to debug smali code step by step. Also it makes working with app easier because of project-like files structure and automation of some repetitive tasks like building apk, etc.
It is NOT intended for piracy and other non-legal uses. It could be used for localizing, adding some features or support for custom platforms and other GOOD purposes. Just try to be fair with authors of an app, that you use and probably like.
Features:
decoding resources to nearly original form
smali debugging: SmaliDebugging
helping with some repetitive tasks

I don't have time to try this right now, but I'm PUMPED.
Ok, now I see, that it still doesn't work for many apps. But you can try your luck ;-)
I've just released 0.9.1 version with wider apps support.
Subscribed! Thanks Brut.All! Will play around with this one

Why not? It just builds apps, not run them, so it's a question like: "Do smali can also work with Android 1.5?" ;-)
That "Android SDK installed with 2.1 platform" requirement doesn't mean, that it will build apps for 2.1 . It will just use 2.1 resources, but these are (must be) backward compatible.

Maybe much later :-/
Even if we will be able to decode it and rebuild, we'll have FC after FC. The point is: framework resources must have constant resName<->resID mappings (eg. @android:string/day must be a 0x01040298), because they are referenced by all apps and unfortunately aapt doesn't give us control over resIDs mappings. I think framework-res.apk and other system files are built using some Google's private tools.
We need to create aapt-like tool, that will use custom resIDs mappings - it should be possible and maybe not so hard, but currently I have other things to do.

Pretty sure it isn't. An apk file is just a way of gathering up the files required to install an Android application. So for example it will have the compiled Java code. Your windows .exe is not a compiled Java application and certainly not compiled for Android! It's a non-starter.
Indeed no chance with that, now if you could tell us what language the source is in you might have hope, of cause java is quite easy to port and you can port C as well using the NDK.
Others you will likely have to rewrite the code, feel free to PM me for more help
Yes yes it's possible! Just tell Iris or Siri to do it
Seriously : what zac said. The code is written differently

If your little exe has a linux version available (or linux equivalent), you'll have a much easier time porting that. You could also try looking for similar open source projects that can be modified to add the features you need.
The answer is no. Though there could be a longer technical follow up to that.. Either way it's no...
With that said.. There are a lot of apps available for the Android.. Try to find one that does what you're looking for..

Its impossible, because there are two fully different operating system.
Not possible at all
you can create .apk file only with a compiler
there are .exe to .apk converters out there, you just need to do a lot of searching to find a link that downloads without having to do surveys. the software is titled Change My Software... so, to all of you that say its not possible to do this... youd be wrong, it is
Could anyone create an apk for downloading music. Just like Lacey for Windows. Its a small exe file 8 MB in size.

Yep, i read something 'bout Eclipse and SDK ... but i never used Eclipse and i was just wondering/kindly asking if anyone who made such thing before and has the necessary tools already on their PC can compile it ... Thanks
Ok, so Netease caught on to everything, and put a stop to all of our shenanigans. None of this would be a problem if they just released an english version. I doubt that will happen anytime soon though.
~~~EDIT~~~
Fildo.net is probably the best alternative. They have a decent android app, and it uses the music from Netease, I believe. Check it out!
But I mean, in the event that you are a stubborn bastard and refuse to quite Netease, there might be a way to get around their block. The following was taken from a comment on page 15 by ItsJono. Good luck!
-----------------
From what I understand, the NetEase translation development was forked into two different projects, the one here is for NON-ROOT people who do not have access to root/xposed installer. This uses a modified APK with modified files that NetEase has begun detection for tampering. The second version, is the one for ROOT/Xposed which i'm installing now. The Xposed version is better since it translates the file on the fly in memory versus having a pre-modified APK so that NetEase can update itself and not break translation.
Edit: Okay, the Xposed version of NetEase + Translation Xposed Module + English translation = Works again!
The link to follow is here: http://superdevs.weebly.com/netease-cloud-music.html
I didn't want to do this before because it looked confusing and hard, especially with so much of the information being in Spanish but it turned out to be quite easy. I'll give a quick overview of what I did to help those who want a clearer, native English description of how to do it. The first link was very helpful with it having been translated from Spanish, and while the English was good, it was clear it wasn't their first language and I want to help those who might be a little iffy as to what the process is:
[How to Install Xposed version of NetEase]
Q: Why install Xposed version of NetEase, versus the pre-translated APK located in this thread?
A: The pre-translated APK of NetEase offered by @omarchavez/XDA: omare.chavez is great for users who do NOT have root access on their device. However, it is prone to "breaking" from NetEase's hash check of APK from what my Android developer friend explains as a possibility. The Xposed version allows you to have the latest official NetEase APK installed without having to wait for an updated APK to show up. Xposed version also allows quick corrections in typos in the translation files, whereas it would require a rebuild of the translated APK, of which, the primary developers are Spanish and English translation is not their primary concern.
Q: I don't have root access, which version should I download?
A: The version you should download is the one offered by @omarchavez / XDA: omare.chavez. Download and install Telegram from Google Play Store and use your phone to visit this address: https://telegram.me/neteaseES , then subscribe to his channel so you can receive the latest developments and download the latest APK version of pre-translated NetEase.
-
Before Install: Have root access, and Xposed installed so you can install the Xposed module that translates the program, without breaking the functionality of NetEase
1.) Install AndroTraductor Xposed module, enable it in Xposed, reboot (?) /// Or follow instructions here: http://superdevs.weebly.com/androtraductor.html
2.) Install latest NetEase APK directly from NetEase, http://music.163.com/api/android/download/latest
3.) Download the translation files:
English - http://www.mediafire.com/download/c6...#91;b_1.0].zip
Spanish - https://mega.co.nz/#!GRlCVRID!vyQlET...smSTKzeDbQ5ncs
Spanish 2 - https://userscloud.com/8c66tzcqb8eh
...and then create a folder in your Android device's root directory named "dv_translate", and extract the contents of the translation zip file that you downloaded in your language so that the file structure looks like the images shown in the link.
http://superdevs.weebly.com/uploads/...62598_orig.png
Reboot device and load up NetEase, the app should have some text translated in your language that you downloaded. Images cannot be translated as they would require modification of the .APK contents and would fail the hash check when NetEase checks for modification.
[How to register for Weibo/NetEase account]
Q: Why should I register an account?
A: You can use NetEase as a Guest but miss out features by not having an account. Having an account allows you to have unlimited 320KB/s quality MP3 song downloads, save your favorite songs, create playlists, etc. I would definitely recommend it. It's also not very hard and is a very simple process.
-
1.) To register a NetEase account, go here: http://reg.163.com/reg/reg.jsp?product=music
2.) Use the follow image or Google translate to help you. http://superdevs.weebly.com/uploads/...png?1434101457
*Please note that the image here has a small mistake, the first red arrow on top where it says "Username" is supposed to be your email. I believe you'll be prompted later to choose a NetEase username handle.
3.)Log in NetEase using the information you put and enjoy!
[Credits]
Special thanks to the users OmarChavez / XDA: omare.chavez for making the translated APK and allow me to try NetEase, and nvincent for making this thread and giving this APK project visibility.

Hi,
nice work! I have also started translating this app, and i would like to merge some fixes into your version.
Is there a github or something where i can contribute?
Cheers.
Wow man, thanks for your work, I'll try this app right now.
I constantly get a notification to update the app. I read somewhere that I should not take the update because it will revert back to Chinese. Is this correct?

I recommend you to stay with this one as the translation is a lot better.
Right now, to FIX the update notification (might also be implemented by OP in the next version) you need a rooted device and a root browser app.
Goto data/data/com.netease.cloudmusic/shared_prefs/UpdateInfo.xml
I THINK the integer value versionCode is used for the update check (versionCode < serverVersion) - simply increase the value to a lot higher one, I used 99 - no update notification on startup.
With this, I didn't have a notification since 24h, I guess that's a fix for it.
EDIT: got an update notification after 48h.

Haha. I was going to say, wow, that is a clever way of fixing it. I'll relay this info over to the guy working on it and see what we can do. No promises though.
Just a quick update - we are waiting for a new version of apktool to be released that apparently should fix the problem we are running into. Once this is released, we'll hopefully be able to update it.
Here's a link to a modded version of 2.5.4.

Antivirus programs are stupid. I guess CM security doesn't like the permissions that the app requires, but personally I don't think this contains a trojan, it's a really huge company in China.
