[Windows][UTILITY][TOOL] APK Multi-Tool - Android Software Development

I am currently working on a major update to the apk manager application as well and changing the name to APK Multi-Tool with some new added features and also to fix some issues with some code errors.
I am also changing a lot of the features as well since a lot of the code has been outdated for a while.
I have updated all the files and modified Apk manager's Scripts to fix many user reported bugs from Daneshm90 apk manager which he had written a simple script to ease the process of editing apks. Got a lot of downloads so thought its in demand
Whether you're doing basic image editing or editing the smali or xml files, on average u have to use (Brut.all or JF's smali/baksmali) awesome tool to extract the apk, edit it, then sign the apk and then adb push/install it. This process is quite tiresome if you are testing a method that needs fine tweaking.
This script should make the process a LOT smoother.
Theres an option of compiling/signing/installing all in one step
Thanks:
Goes to Daneshm90 the Original Writer of APK Manager
Goes to Brut.all for his awesome tool.
Goes to JF for ofcourse, smali/baksmali
Features:
- Added framework dependent decompiling (For non propietary rom apks). (Option 10). Checks whether the dependee apk u selected is correct.
- Allows multiple projects to be modified, switch to and from.
- Allows to modify system apk's using apktool but ensures maximum compatibility in terms of signature / manifest.xml
- Batch optimize apk (Zipalign,optipng,or both)
- Batch Ogg optimization
- Batch install apk from script (option 19)
- Batch Theme Image Transfer TOOL
- Batch Theme optipng TOOL
- Batch Theme Zipalign APK TOOL
- Compression level selector (monitor status above menu)
- Error detection. Checks if error occurred anytime u perform a task, and reports it
- Extract, Zip apk's.
- Incorporates brut.all's apktool
- Improved syntax of questions/answers
- Logging on/off has been removed. Instead a log.txt is created which logs the activities of the script organized using time/date headers
- Optimize pngs (ignores .9.pngs)
- Pull apk from phone into modding environment.
- Push to specific location on phone
- Quick sign an apk (Batch mode supported)
- Read log (Option 24)
- Sign apks
- Supports batch installation, so if u drag multiple apks into the script (not while its running) it will install them all for u. U can ofcourse drag a single apk as well
- User can change the max java heap size (only use if certain large apks get stuck when decompiling/compiling apks) (Option 19)
- U can now set this script as ur default application for apks. When u do, if u double click any apk it will install it for u.
- Zipalign apks
- Much Much More
Instructions:
- Place apk in appropriate folder (Any filename will work, if running for first time folders will not be there, you must run and then the folders will be created)
- Run script
- Minimize the script
- Edit files inside the project folder
- Maximize the script
Requirements:
Java 1.6
Android SDK
FAQ
Resulting apk file is much smaller than original! Is there something missing?
First: compression of resources.arsc file. Sometimes this file is compressed in original apk, sometimes not and apktool always compress it. Second: lack of META-INF dir. Apktool builds unsigned apks, so they lack signatures stored in this dir. Third: apktool uses newest Android SDK, so it could optimize files better, especially if original app is old. So: unpack both original and resulting apk, remove META-INF from original and then compare sizes. If they're still much different, then you could report on XDA or somewhere.
There is no META-INF dir in resulting apk. Is this ok?
Yes. META-INF contains apk signatures mostly and after modifying apk in no longer signed, so there are no signatures in it. You have to sign resulting apk and then META-INF dir will be created.
What do you call "magic apks"?
Sometimes there are some apks which (for my current knowledge) are invalid, broken, theoretically they shouldn't exist. There may be many reasons of their existence: my lack of understanding of Android resources; some non-public, maybe future SDK tools or custom modifications of these; manual hacking of binaries, etc. Usually I can't do anything about it, but you could at least try to replace broken parts by something valid. Actually it's quite likely that they aren't even used, because if they would, then application would crash.
Got problems ?
1. Make sure your path has no spaces
2. Your filename has no wierd characters
3. Java/adb are in your path
4. It's not a proprietary rom's apk (aka Sense,Motorola,Samsung) (If u are, then use option 11 and drag the required framework, eg com.htc.resources, twframework-res...etc)
5. It's not a themed apk (if it is, expect .9 png errors, use as close to stock as possible)
6. Look at the log to know whats happening
7. If all else fails, post as much info as possible and we will try to assist you.
TO DO LIST
Add new feature to Randomly Generate a new Key File for signing the apk files after modifying and recompiling of the apk files this will also allow of uploading to the android market as this added feature will allow you to sign apk files that you may of compiled without signing beforehand.
Modify the Signapk script to be compatible with the Randomly Generation feature in the works
and a few other added features are in the works as I am redesigning the application and rewriting a lot of the code to fix issues as well as some of the new features have broken parts as some features have been moved and broken some command line prompts.
Installing APK Multi-Tool Itself
Run the installer and make sure it is pointed to the root of hard drive

Optipng'ing is not working for me. After extraction, Optipng will be run and will do nothing because it says it cannot find the folder.

Which optiping are you using the batch theme opt or the original method

Option 18, batch optimize.
Sent from my Droid Incredible HD using XDA App

Have you tried using it on the apk itself instead of extracting
Sent from my DROID using xda premium

That's what I did. What i meant to say is I choose option 18, the apk gets extracted, optipng says it can't find the files/directory that was fed to it, and the apk is re-zipped w/o any .png changes. See attached screen grab.

Try placing the file in the transfered folder and running opt 16

Seems to be a very helpfull tool.
But GO**AMN, on the website, change the color of the titles from red to something else. Hurts my eyes reading haha.

i had to edit the script because it was calling for roptipng.exe. after chaging it oo optipng.exe, here's the result

Regarding option 18, after learning a bit about batch programming and looking through the file...it seems the problem is quite simple. Optipng does not support ** for recursion, and as far as I can tell ** means nothing @ Windows command line. Therefore it will fail since the command in the batch file is
Code:
optipng -o99 "apkopt_temp_%~n1\**\*.png"

Thank you
thank you for continuing updates of this application

Lol thank I completly forgotten to update the script

and it goes on and on and on like this

From that log there seems to be a issue with the 9.png files.
From what I see there is perhaps a error accuring with the basalmi blocks when decompiling I will look into what may be causing this and perhaps I may have a fix once I finish patching up my custom version of apktool.jar

When you do jar files you have to add the sources before compile or decompile... so maybe that apk needs the sources by doing apktool if (source name) in terminal... maybe if the original source and the 2.2 or 2.3 source?.... hope this helps
Sent from my X10i using XDA App

Exactly. You need to inc source jar or Java classes. Sorry for obvious question (log posted) could you tell me what your build setup is please?
Edit: create an eclipse project and import.

I'm on CM6 6.1.3 (v54)... I'm trying to edit the stock SE calculator.apk :/ and it decompilied no problem. If I put apktool d calculator (folder) ill get the calculator.out which has the apktool.yml which I copied and pasted into clthe decompiled calculator folder
And where do I get these sources?
Sent from a pyramid in Canadada

your problem is that you didn't imported a framework that works with the apk(in your case the 2.1's framework)
you will find help doing it if you look at the bottom of apktool's help screen
you can import multiple frameworks, so I suggest you to import 2.2's, too
resources are loaded from framework-res.apk
PS.: sometimes recompiling fails if AndroidManifest.xml contains some random crappy stuff. if compiling still fails post that xml and then I could post a corrected one. and please delete any kind of rubbish from the dirs... *caugh* thumbs.db *caugh*

moved to proper forum

oh, mcfly. procedure, procedure. soapbox time?
first verify that apktool is setup and working correctly for you. lets assume that it is;
these are simple instructions for tagging 1 single framework for use in working in 1 rom. additional options are required if working with multiple romsets;
1
tag the rom framework for use in decompiling and recompiling apks that came with the sony rom;
Code:
framework if framework-res.apk
if you were in an unextracted rom folder;
Code:
/system/framework
2
decompile apk you wish to work with
Code:
apktool d Calculator.apk
your apk should decompile without error
3
NOW we verify your apktool setup. recompile the Calculator.apk, unmodified. casing matters and you should specify the output file.
Code:
apktool b Calculator ./built/Calculator.apk
DO YOU HAVE ERRORS AT THIS POINT? if you do, you don't have apktool setup right.
if you don't your xml modifications are either too excessive (they don't jive w/ the jar), or you're improperly making xml modifications. it happens. the changes you make, as the others said, have to jive w/ the jar that accompanies it. my past experience has been that modifications to the /res/values folder that you're making tends to break apk's if its more than just manipulation to a few simple digital values for colors or margins, and even then stability is iffy. i find its better to creatively manipulate the images by overlaying the images where i want them placed in a graphic editor, and then experimenting with creating them to display where i want on the screen. i do this in combination w screenshots from the calculator that i want to display. not a procedure easily explained..
..i was able to turn the current se21 calculator into a htc hybrid by replacing the provided background w/ a black background that has a grey bar across the output field at the top of the screen. i simply put the grey bar on the background image. no xml manipulation required. looks nice compared to the funky blue one it came w.
zip up what you have and send it my way and i can tell you if what you're doing is doable w/ apktool.
i can be of no help to you with eclipse and use of source in your venture. source coding is a little above my current list of working skills beyond simple stock source compiles w the make system for apps and roms.

i have the same error when compiling the com.htc.resources.apk
how i add the sources ?
thanks

Hi guys,
I'm trying to compile android 4.3 from AOSP. I've successfully compiled the roms like Rasbeanjelly or Martin_ro.
However when I'm trying to compile from source, it gives me the following errors:
packages/apps/Settings/res/values/strings.xml:4537: error: Error parsing XML: not well-formed (invalid token)
packages/apps/Settings/res/layout/intent_sender.xml:48: error: Error: No resource found that matches the given name (at 'text' with value '@string/intent_sender_data_label').

Note: Some input files use or override a deprecated API.
Note: Recompile with -Xlint:deprecation for details.
Note: Some input files use unchecked or unsafe operations.

What am I missing here? I've added the proprietary drivers from google, walked through all the steps from the devs website. Any help would be highly appreciated.
I'm on Ubuntu 13.04 btw

First buy apk editor premium version from playstore.
Note: Premium version is going to allow us to edit manifest.xml which is the one we need to edit.
Open apk editor .
Navigate to application or apk file.
Choose full edit.
Go to manifest tab which is on bottom.
Hold a line and choose open in New window option.
Find <meta-data tag and press enter to get to best line.
On next line copy this
<meta-data android:name="com.lge.support.SPLIT_WINDOW" android:value="true" />
Press the save button.
Press save button on apk editor.
It will compile and sign the apk. Install the apk.
If got installation error uninstall the app and install the apk you created now. It will succesfully
install it.
Now you got your favourite app in dual window.

Thx my man!!it worked like charm!!

Take a back up. I never used Viber but like in WhatsApp there will be option to back up.

For me WhatsApp works perfectly.
Back up whatsapp
Uninstall whatsapp
Install the new WhatsApp from apk editor.

I kinda know this, but without root it doesn't because it needs backup of app data

Nope. It doesn't need back up of app data.
WhatsApp will back up chat and uninstall this after that reinstall and give your number when prompted to restore - restore the messages.

That's the problem. When I entered the number, the verification prompted then it went back to entering the number

First buy apk editor premium version.
Note: Premium version is going to allow us to edit manifest.xml which is the one we need to edit.
Open apk editor .
Navigate to application or apk file.
Choose full edit.
Go to manifest tab which is on bottom.
Hold a line and choose open in New window option.
Find <meta-data tag and press enter to get to best line.
On next line copy this
<meta-data android:name="com.lge.support.SPLIT_WINDOW" android:value="true" />
Press the save button.
Press save button on apk editor.
It will compile and sign the apk. Install the apk.
If got installation error uninstall the app and install the apk you created now. It will succesfully
install it.
Now you got your favourite app in dual window.

In my dual window apk manifest I didn't found the line meta-data, but I put it before </Aplication> tag, I saved and compiled, but when I try to install trigger an error telling me that the apk not installed. What can I do? Need root because is a system app?

If it is a system app. You need root .
Install root explorer. Copy the apk file from apk editor to system/app or system/priv-app folder. [Just check where the apk is.] Take a back up of orginal apk. Put the permission as rw-r-r.
Reboot.
