[solved]Editing and installing apk's

To install an edited apk-
-If you open up the apk with
Ninjamorph free as a new project, and make your changes.
-Use a file explorer and goto android themes>workspace>"edited apk" and delete meta-inf.
-Then back to ninjamorph, select finish project to zip it back up but DON'T INSTALL !!
-Use
Signapktic free with platform key to sign it. Uninstall the original apk and install your new edited apk.
Hope this helps

You cannot use that method on market apps. It only works with system apps.

You can't just edit the apk or use metamorph on market apps. If edited, they need to be resigned. Not sure if signing with a testkey is sufficient.

Just tried editing then resigning market apps works with non-protected apps

I'm not trying to use metamorph, that's for themes not icons.
I've tried deleting the meta inf and resigning the apk's with my own key but it still doesn't work.
I've managed to edit them like I described above by installing them as system apps, but I don't want in the system.
Surely there must be a way? Where's the apps2sd directory?

you can edit market apps, then resign them. you must uninstall the app on your phone before installing the modified one, because it is signed with a different key. once the old one is uninstalled every method of installation should work fine for the modified one.
you can edit system apps, just don't unzip or resign them. but you figured that out already.

Can I use one of the many autosign keys, or do I need to generate my own?
If so do I need to generate different keys for different apks or can I use the same key?

Problem solved!!
I deleted the meta-info and signed the apk manually using stericsons auto sign tool, I did try auto signing but the apk wouldnt install.
Thanks people for your help!

Hi all...not sure what I'm doing wrong...if someone could point out my mistake(s) I would greatly appreciate it!
01) Right click on original.apk and open with 7zip
02) Navigate to res/drawable-hdpi
03) Right click the .png files and select 'edit' (the edit option points them to Paint.net)
04) Edit the .png files and save (not sure if this matters, but when I close Paint.net I get a msg saying that the *.png has been changed, would you like to update the archive...if I click yes, it puts an 'a' in the attributes column...if I click cancel it does not save the changes I made)
05) Close the archive and open autosign.bat
06) Choose 'manually sign'
07) type in c;\AndroidSDK\tools\original.apk and I get the following:
**************
Signing File!
**************
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: testsign
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: testsign

Could not find the main class: testsign. Program will exit.
File signed successfully if no Errors above.
I copied the apk to my sdcard and tried to install anyways and I get the application not installed message...
The apk I am editing is someone elses edit of a theme...I just changed the colors of 6 of the png files...if I try to install the one that I have before I edit, it works fine...but once I make my changes it doesn't like something I am doing...
Any help would be appreciated!
Thank you,
SixTen

I'm assuming a theme would be a system app, not a market app.
So try uninstalling the theme, then reinstalling again.
If that fails,...

Actually,... If your not resigning your theme then It would still be the same key wouldn't it. So the Kendong quote I used isn't applicable to you is it. Sorry.

Setting up SignAPK
First, make sure you have Java installed. If not go to www.java.com to install it.
Second, I recommend to unzip the SignAPK_xda.zip file to C:\SignAPK.
Lastly, add the signapk folder to your PATH environment variable:
[*]Go to Control Panel, System
[*]Click on "Advanced" (or "Advanced System Settings")
[*]Click the button "Environment Variables..."
[*]Locate the PATH variable under "User Variables" (or "System variables" if you want to use SignAPK under other user accounts) and double-click it to edit
[*]In the "Variable Value" field, at the end of the line, type a semi-colon and the path to the signapk files ;C:\SignAPK
[*]You could also add the path to your java.exe file here if you have troubles with running signapk.​

it'll be perfect if possible. I would love to play that game. Have you succeeded in finding the url and replacing it with yours?

Okay...so I have followed the instructions and the apk will not load. I changed some png files in my settings.apk and when I load it...it vanishes completely.
Any ideas what am missing?

[Q] How to edit framework-res.apk?

I'm trying to edit framework-res.apk so I can theme my rom. Are these the correct steps?
pull framework-res.apk from my phone
decompile the apk
make the changes
rebuild the apk
sign
zipalign
push apk back to device
I'm not too sure on this method as after I pushed back my modified apk, I get a load of force close errors
Any advice would be welcome

don't sign and don't zipalign and all are fine

I tried without sign and zipalign but the rom wouldnt boot. If I sign, I get force close errors
Does the rom need to be deoxed?

How is your process to decompile and recompile what tools do you use

Is this an ODEXed ROM or a deOXEDed ROM? You can't mix and match. If you're not ODEXing any APKs after you've modified them then you need to make sure all APKs are deOXEDed.

It is a stock rom but there is no framework-res.odex does that mean it doesn't need deodexing even though there are odex files for every other apk in my system folder?

Nice app but this theme also needs .xml changes which this app doesnt support

ok, i put him a note in his thread about the xml changing issue, we will see what hes answer will be...
edit:
also this software could do the trick: http://android.modaco.com/content/t-mobile-pulse-pulse-modaco-com/302404/ande-android-design-editor/

I've been playing around a little more today and it seems the issue is that no tool can rebuild the xml files correctly, they seem to be compressed/encoded.
Has anyone been able to edit an xml file in framework-res.apk and have the phone read it properly?

Refer to my signature. Apk manager.
Edit : just read ur op.
Never sign the system apk's. Simply keep the original signatures intact and after recompiling them, re-include them.
So here are the rules u must follow :
If u've modified the manifest.xml, u must stop core, push the apk, start core or push the apk while in recovery.
If u've modified anything else, a simple push / reboot will do the trick.
Note, u cannot flash a modified system apk the first time (as in on a clean boot), u must flash the original rom, let it build the dex's and then flash ur modified apk.

Hi, I am already using apk manager but the xml files it creates do not seem to work.
To prove this, I have done a test. See the attached xml files,
original_stat_sys_battery.xml was extracted from the original framework-res.apk
I then used apk manager to decompile and then recompile the same apk without making any changes.
recompiled_stat_sys_battery.xml is this recompiled file
I then opened up both files and they look different to me

That shouldn't concern u. Apktool's method of rebuilding the apk/arsc file is slightly different than how android originally builds an apk. What should concern u is if the apk simply works. Now when u decompile the apk, can u check the log to see if it reports of any missing resources, if it doesn't ur fine. So decompile the apk, make ur changes, recompile the apk, move the original meta-inf folder into ur new apk and push it to ur phone following the guidelines in my previous post. if it causes problems, post ur log and i'll take a look.

Ok this time I have added meta-inf to the new apk, pushed it to my phone and the phone hangs on boot.
Here is my log

Heres ur culprit

Now seems u modified the androidmanifest.xml ? If u didn't then heres my recommendation, copy over the original androidmanifest.xml from the original apk.

[Guide] How to deodex SMemo.apk

SMemo.apk is making problem when trying to deodex it.
I found the dependencies files and it works great!
Download the 2 attached files: servlet.jar and memo.jar
put these files in your framework folder
Use these files to deodex SMemo.apk -
twframework.jar
com.google.android.maps.jar
secmediarecorder.jar
memo.jar
servlet.jar
deodex your SMemo.apk
Good luck! Don't forget to hit the "Thanks" button :good:

Nice work dude!

You also need twframework.jar and com.google.android.maps.jar but those are to find in /framework.
But anyway there are still some errors:

The error message "the package appears to be corrupt" usually indicates that there is an issue with the APK file itself, such as missing or corrupted files, incorrect file permissions, or a problem with the signing process.
It's possible that the decompilation process may have introduced some errors or corrupted files in the APK, even if you did not make any edits to the code. When you recompiled the APK, these errors may have been carried over, resulting in the "corrupt" package.
To troubleshoot this issue, you could try the following steps:
Make sure you are using the latest version of the APK tools (apktool, dex-tools, signapk, etc.), as older versions may have bugs or limitations that could cause issues.
Check the log files generated during the decompilation and recompilation process to see if there were any errors or warnings that may have contributed to the issue.
Try recompiling the APK using a different tool or method, to see if that resolves the issue.
If none of the above steps work, you may need to examine the APK file more closely to determine the root cause of the problem. This could involve examining the file structure, checking file permissions and signatures, or even using a more advanced debugging tool such as Android Studio.
