I'm new to the android development community and was wondering if a classes.dex file could be edited to add an api. If there is a way to add this API so the ROM knows that this API is there and available.
Thanks for the help in advance.

I want to make a duplicate apk by using apktool 4.6 for phone.
example wechat.apk to wechat01.apk
And to install both on same device..
PLEASE PROVIDE TUTORIAL FOR DOING IT...
THANKS
I think u can't do it easily just with apktool, you might need modify content in smali files, which is too complicated for me to make it...
Sorry for my bad English...

You need to change the appId in (AndroidManifest.xml) but the consequence of that is that the MainActivity class also needs to be adjusted to match that new id which is not going to be easy unless you have the source code available.
I was recently looking for system ui smali mods and I came across this apk tool app and I thought I would share it, I think it works good so far but your working with a smaller screen other wise its really nice
Download: ApkTool v4.7.apk
Update fix for Lollipop Roms :ApkToolUpdate.zip
Instructions :
After you install the apk be sure to go to your Framework apks and hit import framework before you do anything
Also Copy system apks to SD card or you with get decompile errors
If you have problems with decompiling system apps on Lollipop flash update zip that has updated jars
You shouldn't have any problems with kit kat though I believe so no need to flash update.zip
Flash via FlashFire
And Finally Enjoy

I would normally use the computer Verison of apk tool and then use note pad ++ for looking at the xml files

At some point I will decompile the app and update the baksmali and so on to the lollipop Verison

Try Axel on the playstore. You can view and edit.
Documentation on this app is hard to find
Documentation on this app is hard to find, did you write this? From what I can gather it turns your active rom into a rom package for redistribution? I'm assuming that's what they mean by create rom? Who wrote this gem? Amazing app
