Hello,
I'm trying to change a system application on my phone using the APKMultiTool utility but am having problems. The resulting APK will crash my phone which complains about 1,000 permissions are not understood: Unknown permission android.permission...
Steps I've taken.
- Downloaded APKMultiTool
- (9) De-compiled the system framework-res.apk
- Edited the arrays.xml file
- (10) Compiled the APK
- (11) Signed the APK
- Pushed the APK back to the device
The result is an unstable system which will just crash often. Does anyone have the correct procedure for editing system apk's using the new APKMultiTool?
1.Never sign a system apk
2. Use APK manager not apk multitool
3.After compiling, open the apk using winrar and take out resources.arsc and put it back again but with compression level set to store
And then push it to phone.
you must not compiled framework-res.apk
answer Yes to both questions
delete resources.arsc in the keep folder and done
I'm using apktool quite some time. But can't figure out why I'm always unable to decompile some app like Nova launcher, Solid Explorer and most of play store app like them. The errors don't even leave any trace on log file. They just stopped decompile. So far, I've successfully decompiled framework-res, system apks & Whatsapp without any error. I'm using latest apktool & my device's framework-res & system-UI already added. By the way, I'm adding a little apk which I failed to decompile. Thanks.
i have the apk setup file of an app. The app has notifications that appear on the status bar. I want to edit the setup apk file to edit the icon resources which are png files. How can i edit them? I used winrar to extract the resources, edit and place them back into the archive but the setup didn't run then. Please help.

Apk manager is the solution, incase it helps somebody.
I have edited then I opened both the new Settings.apk and the original Settings.apk using 7zip. then just simply drag & dropped the resource file from the new one to the original. & then I replaced that original settings.apk in my phone using root explorer and modified permission to 644. The settings is there in the drawer but when I'm tapping it ,it crashing only... Even the gear icon is also not showing,....
I didnt changed anything in the Settings.apk rather than some string values in Strings.xml file.
Please help me if..
I am having trouble installing app to /system/app. In Kitkat you could simply copy .apk to /system/app and change permissions to rw-r-r but in Lollipop there is a bunch of a subfolders and doing that doesn't work. Even if I put apk in the folder with the same name as apk. So does anyone know how to do this on Android L?
