I love ebuddy on android, it's better than the official chinese MSN I posted a few weeks ago but I am sick of silver, white and orange. I am unfamiliar with how to get the apk files from apps installed from the android market.
Could someone, anyone please provide me with the apk file for ebuddy 1.9.1 (the most recent) so I can do some colour variations?
Cheers.

Install the Android SDK, open Command Prompt and write:
Code:
adb devices
adb pull /data/app app
Or if you know the .apk name
Code:
adb pull /data/app/apkname.apk
That will create a new folder called app in your /tools folder with all your apps.
Ah cheers man, done it
will post some colour variations asap.
Any idea why when i repackage the files as a zip then rename as an apk it fails to install?

Better if you use apk tool: http://code.google.com/p/android-apktool/
Decompile: apktool d name.apk
Compile: apktool b name
Hmm still doesnt work. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong...

These resources seems 0 byte in the apk:
"drawable-hdpi-v6/chat_gray_back.9.png"
"drawable-hdpi-v6/chat_orange_back.9.png"
"drawable/chat_gray_back.9.png"
"drawable-hdpi-v4/chat_orange_back.9.png"
"drawable/chat_orange_back.9.png"
"drawable-hdpi-v4/chat_gray_back.9.png"
here's the zip file, if you can tell me what I've done wrong I'd really appreciate it.
Hmm..I let it compile, but fails to install the apk..
Hope someone much expert than me can help you

Download APKManager and you should be good.
EDIT: Didn't see the answers below mine for some reason ... I'm not at my desktop right now, but if no one has checked it by the time I get hope I'll see if I'm any help.
If you're just changing pngs, try to just extract the apk then zip it when changed. Ie. Don't decompile it
Do this using apkmanager

no idea why your file wont install...
I decompiled a fresh version of ebuddy, compiled back and installed, no probs.
But, for exchanging some png´s only, that´s what I do:
- take a fresh original version (v1.9.1 attached)
- open com.ebuddy.android-1.apk with 7-Zip
- copy/paste new png´s
- close file
- sign
- install
i want to install a .jar file on my SGM..how to do??i converted .jar tto apk n installed but it force closes every time..
which app should i use as a third party app?
I don't think it's that easy since Android doesn't support native Java code, and renaming a .Jar to .Apk isn't gonna help.
Try this:

hello
i cant figure out how to decompile and compile framework-res.apk from free optimus project nightly 6
i tried many versions of apktool and apkmanager some of them works if i change the version for compiling and decompiling and i have one version which is extra for ics and this works without changing
but if i include a framework-res.apk in the rom.zip which is successfully decompiled and compiled (without errors) the phone gets into a bootloop.
can anybody teach me how to do this correctly?
i already have tried to sign the apk and repackaged the whole rom

if i'm missing any software apktool won't compile without errors or it won't finally start cause it checks all needed sources before starting.
which category do u think is right? q&a - this is not just a question, there's an simple answer 4. dev - i haven't developed anything and want to publish it - theming apps - nothing to do with this.. :cyclops:
Somehow iam not able to move or delete this post so excuse me when i am asking a question and break some forum rules by that.
If someone is willing me to help anyway it would be very nice.
Hi community,
I am new to Theming.
Using the Android SDK with all necessary components.
i try to mod the hexo theme.
decompiled it and got it finally into eclipse.
when i export my theme the first time i can install it on my phone; no problem.
when i update my theme local on my pc with eclipse
export the theme again as an apk (like the first time)
my phone refuses the install. it abborts.
what am i doing wrong?
do i need to do something with the androidmanifest for every update?
I tried to keep the names of packages author theme name etc.
I tried to change the names of packages author theme name etc.
Nothing helped...
what is it?
I am currently using GO Launcher for my themes on my phone. Is there ANY POSSIBLE WAY to convert my theme I have already created on my phone to an APK file rather than coding one from scratch? I have searched this site and have begun to learn how to use Android Studio in the likelihood that I will have to code my themes. If there is a way to just take what I have made in GO Launcher on my phone and export it to an APK file for others to use/put on google play, I would be grateful to whoever knows how to do it. Or if anyone is successfully using the Java based GO Theme Factory, I could use some help because I'm getting an error when trying to run the app. Java is working fine on my computer. Sorry for being a noob, but this site has helped me root and do all sorts of other stuff I didn't think was possible. Thanks for reading.
