[Q] APK decompiler - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hey can anyone help me out with this.
I want to decompile an APK and open it on eclipse so that i can modify it. is there any tools which can help me do it.
Thanks

Yes, just several days ago i've stumbled upon one russian article, that describes a process of decompiling a malicious software apk and analyzing the code. In short, what you will need is two things:
1) DEX to JAR converter ( dex2jar )
2) JAR code decompiler ( JD-GUI )
I haven't tried it myself, but the prcess should be relatively straightforward. Let me know how it goes.

hey thanks
Will let you know once i do it.

[Q] Decompile, Edit Code and Re-compile to APK for android

Hello everyone
I have a question, first look at what I did.
I want to edit code of apk.
First, I use dex2jar. I can convert from APK to JAR file.
Second, I use JD. I can convert from JAR to Java source code.
Then I am trying to import these code into eclipse (or other editors) but it is not working.
Is there any possible way to edit the code?
I know we can edit smali but I think it is so much difficult.
I would be easier if I can edit in java source code and compile again to APK.
Thanks
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks
Moving to Q&A
It's not that easy. You can decompile (dex2jar & jd) the code to read it, do some research, etc. but this is a one way trip. If you want to modify something you will have to learn smali.
so, you mean the only way to modify code is smali?

[Q] Modifying Smali Code and recompile it.

I have read all the threads on the topic of decompiling APK file and recompiling it, and so far I am successful in decompiling and recompiling it.And now I want to make some changes in smali files like change package name and remove some features, But I don't know smali language, so Is there a way that I can convert smali files into Android JAVA project which I can import into Eclipse or I must have to learn smali language to achieve what I want.
Thanks in Advance

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
It can be done with smali also ....
Only thing is you need to be tricky ....[emoji6]
Am not writing the procedure here coz changing package name doesn't sounds good for me [emoji1] I always respect efforts of original developers (some kangers always do change name and remove some features and claim the apk as theirs in generally am saying don't get hurted )
So I just want to confirm that changing package name and removing some features is possible via smali editing no need to convert the apk to java source .......
