How is java important, android is based on java, an .apk is just a modified .jar and there are tools to change a .jar into an .apk so a jre or java vm isnt required

Nice. Can this use for website that require java applet security?

but it doesn't seem to integrate into the browser.. i flashed it and went to java.com and it couldn't confirm that i have java installed. not sure if this was your goal, but it would have been awesome

:s that is something else this app is just to let JAVA files or apps work on the phone

Why is there no java.apk in this zip file? Also, recovery throws up an error: Unable to find "system/customize/MNS/52099.xml" in Manifest file or something like that when tried to flash this zip..

I get an error for a missing file system/customize/MNS/52099.xml and then it says verification failed... anyone know how to fix this

New update
K so i made this updated Java update that should work on everyone else's thats giving the error that it gave me so test it out and always do nandroid backups!!

how exactly do i use that once flashed? i have a .jad file but it wont work...the only way i've got it work is with foundation profile midp installed, and that is very ugly. not even sure about security since i want to use it for m-banking?

works on CM RC2 ?

Sorry , Mistakenly Posted.

[Q] APK

Whats the easiest yet effective way to create an apk???
and what languages do i need to learn??
can i make an apk as a base use itz xml layouts and make my own apk??
thanks for answering a Noob!

Prerequisites:
Android sdk
Eclipse juno/helios whatever
Java jdk 1.6
Knows Xml editing
Java language
Usable brain
If above requirements are fulfilled, then there is no problem in making an android app... Any questions, ask google! That guy is the guy I like to play with! You can see those search buttons, that tickles when you click... Or i meant to say poke. Tickle him and he gives you answers.

Do you know any programming language? Java is the best choice, because Android OS API is in Java, but you can also use C++ (NDK) or C# (Mono, Unity).

Eclipse basic should be good,
and VTS for finalizing and editing

Editing XML wierd characters

Hello!
I'm trying to edit one of the XML's of the S Health app so hopefully I can discover some way to hide some info from the widget. However opening the said XML file in Notepad++ gives me a bunch of weird characters.. How do I procede?

Hi,
You cannot just pull out the file and edit it. You need to learn to decompile it first and then edit. When done, recompile. Hope this helps ?

Ahh I thought it was the same as when replacing images, just change the file in 7z and resign the app.
How would one go àbout the most easy/fast way to decompile? I am no developer, I just want to edit out some text that is displayed on a widget by removing a couple of ljnes in the XML (I guess), nothing fancy. I don't want to be installing SDKs and what not..

The easiest way is this mate :
1. Download tickle my android.
2. Download java applet 6U25.
3. Framework.resapk and other abc-res.apk.
4. Run tickle my android and decompile.

[Q] Learning App Development.

So I would like to learn how to develop apps for the android OS. I'm not sure where I should put this (sorry if in wrong section). I would like to learn how to code and do all the steps in app development. I have absolutely ZERO experience in coding other then changing the dedicated RAM for Minecraft. If someone could tutor me maybe twice a week or link me to other forums that explain this sort of thing and provide support for people. I would be very happy for either if the two! Thank you guys!

Learning Java
Hi NamesBass
Android development is basically Java. I learned it from a while. The easiest way is to watch some YouTube videos. Also very helpful are the official tutorials and sample apps. You can find them here: developer.android.com/training (Sorry I haven't 10 posts yet so I can't post direct URLs). Then start coding and when you stuck somewhere use google and learn from it
~LoXeras

read book
read books, good books on programming - Android in 24 hours (loren Dersy( i ), Sheyn Kondor), and Android 2 ( Reto Mayer)

Thank you for the help.

okay so i downloaded that and tried to set it up but an error message came up saying I need to add an environment variable for JAVA_HOME. I did this and it went something like C: Program Files\Java\jre7\bin\Java and when I launched the program, it told me to direct it to JDK not jre7, but I dont have a JDK file. I did a system search and nothing came up.

You are pointing to the jre7 folder in Program Files/Java. You should change that to the jdk folder.
e.g. My JAVA_HOME variable is C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_05

So I change jre7 to JDK(whatever)?

Why are you using JDK 8 for Android? It's not officially supported by Android SDK. Do you see any improvements/problems in compare with JDK 7?

Creating a modded apk

Hello everyone.
I'm trying to start to make some mods in some applications but I'm not sure where to start, mainly because i'm in Linux.
For Windows I know about dnSpy which allow us to decompile, edit, compile etc etc apk files!
Is there any applications for Linux to do the same job?

Ok, I have already that application installed, but it keeps telling me that I should have some 3rd party applications in my "vendor" folder. What applications are those? I already tried to copy into that folde "adb" and also the applications that comes with APK Tool, but it still shows the same warning. And I cannot edit dll modules with APK Studio as I can with dnSpy!

I use apktool and smali/baksmali...no studio needed. It is also a good idea to have old and new versions of smali/baksmali (I use 1.3.3 and 2.1.3) because some mods you download the smali files will be in old code format. So I smali them into classes.dex with the 1.3.3 and then baksmali with 2.1.3 to convert old code to new before merging with your apk.

Ok, thanks
I have downloaded version 2.2.0 of smali and baksmali and also a zip containing (i hope, smali and balsmali) version 1.3.3 of the same application! Is there any basic tutorials to teach how to start with these applications?

Ok, after I have decompressed/decompiled/whatever the apk file I need to edit a file that is a dll module! It has some like c# or so code. How can I edit these files, change them and compile the file again???? Some use dnSpy and when the dll file is opened, we can see a lot of code, functions and stuff. How can I do that without dnSpy because looks like there is no linux version of dnSpy.

Yes, I was trying to create my own modded version of a game! I usually use Atom, but I already tried to open DLL files with Atom and it doesn't work!
Do I have that Notepadqq for Debian?

I`ve been trying to figure out why do you want to "create a modded apk" and according to your last post , you`re trying to bypass functionalities of an original game
