Thank you for reminding me, i will optimize them in the next version

This is by far my "goto" file explorer. It just plain WORKS whenever I need it. Thanks for this great app. I've recently needed a text editor, so this is a welcome update for me. Just one question: how do I use it? If I select a file to edit how can I get it to show in andtext?

Android 4.1 and Encrypted APKs?

Hi All,
Forgive me if this has been asked - searching XDA results in hundreds of spurious hit since the search tool does not appear to honor quotes in a search term (i.e., "encrypted apk"). My apologies for the choice of forums. I was not allowed to ask in the Android forums. Sorry about the perverted reference below. I'm not allowed to add references, either.
Android 4.1 allows encryption of an APK (see "App Encryption" at H T T P developer-dot-android-dot-com-slash-about-slash-versions-slash-jelly-bean-dot-html). What tools are folks using to decrypt the APK and get it ready for something like APKTOOL or Dex2Jar?

Ping...
Is there anyway to get this moved to an Android developers forum? Thats where it belongs.

I would also be interested in this.

wtf with this?

You can view or decrypt the XML files of an Android APKfile with apktool.
Just copy the APK file also in that directory and run the following command in your command prompt:
Code:
apktool d HelloWorld.apk ./HelloWorld,
This will create and directory "HelloWorld"in your current directory. Inside it you can find the AndroidManifest.xmlfile in decrypted form and you can also find other XMLfiles inside the "HelloWorld/res/layout" directory.
Here HelloWorld.apk is yourAndroidAPKfile.
See the below screen shot for more information:

apktool development was abandoned some time ago. The last release built and offered for download is from December 2011 (https://code.google.com/p/android-apktool/downloads/list). I seriously doubt it can do anything with an Encrypted APK (a featured added in August 2012 with Jelly Bean).
apktools or smali/baksmali is broken with respect to debug information. apktools and smali debugging: https://code.google.com/p/android-apktool/issues/detail?id=339. smali/baksmali debug issue (I should have filed it as a bug report): https://code.google.com/p/smali/issues/detail?id=139. I know there is another apktool by ibotpeaches, but its broken too: https://code.google.com/p/smali/issues/detail?id=139.

Agreed. That link is a decent place to start reading up on them. It's an interesting idea, I'm curious to see how encrypted APK distribution pans out....

This is interesting

[SCRIPT][windows][Noob Friendly] Decompile Ramdisk on windows

Hey Guys this First script ive ever wrote!
With this simple tool you can Decompile your kernel into the Ramdisk and the other stuff that makes a kernel this will then allow you to make changes to the ramdisk easily, swap ramdisks and stuff to create repacks to allow OC kernels for different android versions and edit bootclasspaths for porting sense ROMs and stuff..
For a quick tutorial you can simply do this:
- Drag and drop your boot.img onto the decompilekernel.bat and it should split into two parts, the ramdisk, and other stuff (not important really)
- After you've made your edits and stuff, double click the recompilekernel.bat and this will make your boot.img and name it new kernel (cant remember) and the edited ramdisk.
- Once you've done what you wish to do with, double click the makeclean.bat and then everything will be cleaned except the two kernels!
Download here
http://d-h.st/Q7W
Will upload with screenshots and stuff when this gets a tad more popular.. If not i see no reason to continue the updates Sorry

Reserved for screenies and tuts

Changelog
Code:
[B]11.09.2013[/B]
-More GUI
-Cleaned Code
-updated exe
[B]08.09.2013[/B]
-Cleaned up code
-Added more friendly GUI

[B]01.09.2013[/B]

The idea is good, but in my opinion there is a downside: it's becoming pretty easy to change important stuff...
So please think before you change something. If you're not 100% sure what you are doing, better don't do it.
But otherwise, nice work

You can use Dsxida's Kitchen >>Go to Old Stuffs>Porting and You can decomiple Ramdiosk and kernel there

Ofcourse there are gonna be other ways and tools, but isnt this just the easiest? you have 1folder and 3bat's. Drag and drop to decompile and then double click to recompile, no need for Java paths or anything, straight to the point, small file, all in one directory and is fast, no need to learn how to use Dsxida's Kitchen or muck about with other files.
No BullS**t just straight tools.

You most certainly can, although full functionality varies between devices!
New version updated! ​

I'm slightly confused. Why do we need another tool that does this. Kudos on your first script, and it can be a great learning opportunity, but I fail to see the merit in another tool to do the same exact thing as a kitchen.

does not work for me.

[Q] Why can't I recompile modified apk?

I am trying to add 1% battery mod to my ROM. I decompiled my SystemUI.apk perfectly with the latest version of apktool. I modified the files I needed then I went to recompile using
Code:
apktool b -f -d SystemUI.apk SystemUI-new.apk
Here's (poor) screenshots of my errors:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I tried manually installing apktool in /usr/local/bin and I also tried Apk-Multi-Tool version 2.0. I'm running the latest version of Mint (17 I believe) and everything is up to date, including Java JRE. I cannot find any related help on Google so any help that u can give is greatly appreciated. Thx

Say my name and I appear...
It's hard to know quite what the problem is here as the screenshots are missing most of the error message. Including the first error, which is often the key to solving the problem.
By the looks of things though, I would say that you haven't added your png files. These error messages are all saying that you have a reference to image files in your xml..but no actual image files.
(Oh, and TMA isn't available on Linux...yet. But if the OP has access to a Windows PC, I can definitely suggest it!)

You should never modify the public.xml file...
I'll be honest, it's really hard to tell what's going just from screenshots of part of the error. Can you provide the entire error message please? And it would help if you're able to provide the screen output from when you decompiled as well.
What type of phone/rom are you using?

Tanks..

What about Samsung ROMs? I think the procedure is a bit different with those tar.md5 firmwares. Can I simply repack the ROM as tar.md5 and flash it? Or is there something else?

is there a video tutorial of this??

Thanks a bunch, very nice tutorial indeed. A bit basic which is wonderful for those who just entered the scripting world in android.

True
Thanks for the information.

I will try this guide out

Is that really so easy ????
I mean, the developers (for example cyanogenmod) needs "a lot of time" to bring out a stable Version
Thanks ?

Thanks a lot, again thank you very much
