didn't know it was that easy to deodex, but anyway, you don't need to rename app.apk to app.zip, apk's can be opened by any archiver.
so you can just put the classes.dex in the apk.
So, Basically...
So, basically, what you did there was DeODEXed an ODEXed app... Is it correct?
I never knew DeODEXing would be this easy... So I'm quite unsure about this. Can anyone try to do this on an ODEXed app?
Anyone?
I am having one apk which can schedule power on and off your android device..Actually I have got this from Micromax but unable to install it on my HTC one..try if anyone succeeds and let me know please....I have uploaded the apk as well...Thanks and waiting for experts to reply soon...
I think no one has tried it yet..My above power on off scheduler...Try it man and let me know plz....
Does it work? I couldn't fix this problem
very desperate.. pls help

pls I have no idea where I can get the odex file or any of those inside files, the only thing I see when I plug it to my system is only the apk file ..pls is there any software I need in other to view these files
Still unsolved!!!! Please help!!!
Yeah, I got it. It really works on your case. But what if we say, like in my case, that the to-be-installed apps really give the same "App not installed" error (attempting to install Astro File Manager or any other would still be futile), even though they tend to work well on other phones, which means it's just my phone which that's not working. How should I fix this? I've tried almost everything like resetting the app preferences in the App manager. Also, factory resetting the phone is never a good choice for me since losing all the data would be very sad. Please help!

don this but still application not installed error on lg optimus g pro e988
app not installed problem
i was having problem with certain apps and games, i guess this was due to the custom rom.when i tried to install them via play store it said "couldnt install on internal or usb storage". I tried all methods but none could solve my problem. What i did was search were apks are kept in system. it was in the data folder(you need root) and then i put these apks in the data folder where all other apks are installed and manually placed my apks there. Now the apps which i wasnt able to install work like charm. What you do is to place the apk in the folder and then reeboot your phone. On reebooting you will see a shortcut of the applications you just placed. Hope it helps

This worked for me, but you forgot to mention that you need to set permissions to 0644. After I did that, I didn't even have to reboot, the apps appeared in my drawer just like that. Thx, BTW.

I DL'ed your APK, and installed it, only to be told "There was a problem parsing the package. This USUALLY, IME, means that there was a problem during the file transfer, however your apk just will NOT work for me, I tried DL'ing it 3X, 3 different machines, no luck. Sorry, man. NOT an expert, BTW, but I have SOME knowledge.
Android Link/Shortcut Editing
Again, this is the 2nd time I was logged out on the middle of this post. It is more than infuriating with such a crippled text entry interface.
This page is not right, I'm having to re-author this post when for whatever reason my previous login was no longer valid and my post data was lost?? Also, is there a solution for text entry erratic/jumping-around behavior??
Re: Android; Application not installed on your phone
To my chagrin I have more than a few 'application specific' internet (URL) links/shortcuts to an app whose current version crashes on startup; and I have uninstalled it. Anyway, I would rather that these links run the browser chooser/launcher or something more useful like an unrooted URL-extractor/editor/viewer--Really, Android shows such a basic error without some madness to correct it? Only one star for Dolphin browser : (
Plsssss help
It shows application not installed only for kinguser (root management app). Others all install properly. I TRIED FACTORY RESET AND RECOVERY MOD STILL NO RESULT PLSSSS HELP AS FAST AS POSSIBLE.
This "guide" is BS.
>app.odex
first of all, an app only comes with an .apk
file, for example this towelroot apk
so I dunno how one could sign it using your BS method
Hi, I'm trying translate lenovo-res.apk for my lenovo a850 but I still can't do it. I always get only bootloop. I try apktool, kitchen, jBart... I'm trying it many days. Can anyone help me? Thanks

I have the same problem on Lenovo P770....
I can help. Try the following steps:
1. Make a full backup of your device!
2. Get the lenovo-res.apk file onto your PC. Copy it to a safe place as a backup.
3. Download an archive manager (WinRAR, 7zip), and open it.
4. While in the archiver, navigate to the directory where the lenovo-res.apk file is located (not the backup one!).
5. Extract lenovo-res.apk to an empty folder of your choice (name suggestion - "lenovo-res modding").
6. Go back to your regular file explorer and open the folder you just extracted the files to. Open and modify what you like.
7. Now, open up your archiver program again, and navigate to the directory inside the lenovo-res.apk file where the files you modified belong (for example, lenovo-res.apk\res\drawable-mdpi).
8. Back in your regular file explorer, select and drag the modified files from the file explorer window into the archiver window. Drop the files in the archiver window.
9. Hit "Yes" or "OK" if asked if you're sure.
10. Repeat steps 6-9 as many times as necessary.
11. When done, close the archiver window to finalize the changes.
12, Now, you can ADB push the modded lenovo-res.apk file to your device, but don't replace the one on your system with the push! You will get a bootloop!
13. Instead, push it to your external sdcard (for example, /mnt/sdcard).
14. On your device, open up your file explorer app (I use ES File Explorer), and navigate to where you pushed the lenovo-res.apk. Copy it, and paste it directly into the directory where the system file is (for example, /system/framework).
15. If the paste succeeds, you did it. Your device will hot reboot itself after the replacement, and will then boot up using the new lenovo-res.apk.
16. Done!
If the above steps are helpful, please, please click the Thanks button below!
:good:
Thanks, but this will not help me. Because I need give to lenovo-res.apk new slovak and czech translates (folders values-sk and values-cs). If I unzip the apk file, as you wrote, there is no all subdirectories in "res" directory, where language files are.
All Subdirectories in "res" directory are creates only when you use JBart or Apktool:
color\
drawable\
drawable-hdpi\
layout\
values\
values-in\
values-ms\
values-ru\
values-vi\
values-zh-rCN\
If you will use 7ZIP, there are only:
color\
drawable\
drawable-hdpi\
layout\
I need to add values-sk and values-cs subdirectories. Normaly I use jBart or Apktool, make lenovo-res.apk file, no errors. Then install ROM file, but phone will stop on bootloop. On all other apk files procedure with jBart/Apktool works well, except lenovo-res.apk not.
I do not know how to compile this one apk. Please help me. Thanks.
I know this is a little bit off topic..Kindly help.. am trying to locate the systemUI apk on my lenovo k80m.. cant seem to find it in priv- app or app folders.
is there any app that can setting copy the file to system folder and create the shortcut to the homescreen?
so the next time i want to copy the file , i just need to click the shortcut and it copy the file automatically without me to dig the folder.
I need to copy the file everytime i reboot my phone , so frustrated :crying:
Be cheerful to read Hindi instead of those irritating boxes. (tested on my Moto Defy MB525).
1. Root your phone. (will void your warranty){try this step at your own risk}
2. Download 'FX' from market.
3. Download 'DroidSansFallbackhpyes hp256.zip' attached file to your sd card.
5. Open fx explorer and locate your file,extract it, rename it to DroidSansFallback.ttf, copy the font, go to /System/Fonts, then replace {backup this original file to sd card} already existing DroidSansFallback.ttf with the copied file. make sure you click on Lock Icon(in top right corner} before you paste font in fonts directory.
6. 'Permissions' should be rw-r-r.(to easily see this,change the view to list}
otherwise long click on copied file,select permissions.
7.exit the app.
8.immediately Reboot your phone and enjoy.
here's what I did.
I don't have a computer. I changed apk to zip and unzipped it. Then I used Axel xml/editor viewer to change things. Then saved it and compressed file to zip then changed to apk. I tried using Zip Signer from app store. I still get the same parsing error when I click app to install.
What do I do to fix it ? apk editor pro works and installs the modded app but won't load the modded app to change things again so I don't want to use that.
Anyone have an answer ?
Try this process, instead. It works famously for me.
First, copy the .apk to a safe place just in case!
1. Extract your .apk to a folder.
2. Edit what you want.
3. Open up your original .apk in an archive manager (7zip, WinRAR).
4. Navigate to the directory where your edited files will go while in the archive manager.
5. Drag-and-drop your edited files into the archiver window which has the .apk open. Click "OK" if it asks if you're sure.
6. Close that window, ADB push it to /[wherever], and install.
Done! :good:

For reading all the xml files I use Axel (XML Editor / Viewer)
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...aystore&pcampaignid=APPU_pzkdVL_aBcmONsKggsgE
You have to click open as on xml and choose axel then click Save As... save it somewhere with the same name as the file name as it is.
then copy the saved file into the folder of where you got it from and overwrite it. Make sure name is same. Now open the saved xml again in Axel ans now you can modify it, then click Save before exiting it.
For changing other things like button images I haven't done that.
I changed what app says inside and what some buttons says. The Strings.XML file is where buttons are or some other things
there's one called APK Editor Pro but it only lets you change app one time. It won't load modified one.
Here, https://play.google.com/store/apps/...aystore&pcampaignid=APPU_pzkdVL_aBcmONsKggsgE
is anyone able to tell me how to fix it ? How to get the apk aligned not using a computer ?
