I'm attempting to create my first app (specifically, a GOSMS skin).
For the first three attempts or so, everything was honky-dory. I was compiling my .apk with no issues each time.
Now, however, every time I attempt to compile a .apk with Apk Changer, I receive the following error(s):

Odd thing it, I can navigate to \apk\other\app and MyApk.conf does exist. The others (.bak, .reg, .orig) do not exist in \out\MyApk,
I get this every single time - I can decompile any random .apk and immediately re-compile it without making any changes and still receive this error. To my knowledge, I made no changes to my Apk Changer settings. I even attempted to delete and extract a fresh copy of Apk Changer - no dice.
I'm sure I'm missing something blatantly obvious, but can't figure it out for the life of me.
Any ideas?

Hello all,
For some strange reason, I am getting an exception when decompiling the Settings.apk on my Thunderbolt. I placed com.htc.resources.apk and framework-res.apk in the same directory, ran "apktool if" successfully on both files, and scoured Google for fixes after watching the apktool videos to no avail Any suggestions? This problem always occurs after the "Decoding values" line.
Settings.apk was taken from a rooted Thunderbolt running the latest OTA update and radio. My goal is to modify the AndroidManifest.xml to remove the "Mobile hotspot" option, then recompiling the darn thing.
Thanks in advance!

The java error you are getting appears to be because its decoding from * to * which is infinite but it appears that in reality, the method only contains 0-20 so when it reaches 21, you are out of bounds because no data exists there. Im not sure if that section of code is even changeable though without modifying the actual program. Its odd though because * is supposed to only include all the given lines yet its checking beyond those if you are getting the out of bounds error. Not sure on a fix to this.
Did you try APK manager 5.0.2? I had issues on 4.9 lastest version fixed for me

I have tried. As you can see, I have an error when recompile it.
Make sure u dont change any of the apk mamager files from the original foulder leave everythun you extracted together in the same foalder. If you continue having errors you might have to try diffrent versions of apk manager to get it to work.

Hello there,
I've been trying desperately long to change an Android app, but it just does not work. :crying:
This app is SecSettings.apk and is of a Samsung Galaxy S5 Mini Deodexed ROM. Yesterday I still have them easily change decompile and then recompile can (without signing).
I can change the Launcher Icons and a few options successfully.
It has then everything works well on the device.
Then few minutes have passed and I still wanted to make a small change. I was able to successfully recompile the app again. I then got back to system / privapp / SecSettings moved, set the correct permissions, but after restarting the app will not be installed.
I then tried with signing, zipalign and both, but unsuccessfully.
I also have the app again Decompiles and then recompiled without signing again, without making a change, but then I do not know yet had a parsing error on the device, as previously with the app.
I also once again postponed the original app on the device and it works. I then Mr. downloaded ApkTool again, Java JDK and JRE again Mr. downloaded and reinstalled, but also the app and the necessary framework (Framework res.apk and twframework-res.apk) reinstalled. But all without success. Have it with another system app (Seccontacts.apk) tried, but without success.
Before I could even install everything successfully De / Compiling. :crying:
Now also appears from even a (error) when Decompiling on (he has still Successfully De / recompiled).:
Code:

I inquired already on the internet, but found nothing useful about these error.
I can upload the apks, if they are needed.
If my English is not good, then I apologize herewith.
Now I hope someone can help me here.
Best regards,

You need to install your framework-res.apk into apktool first.
Code:
apktool if framework-res.apk
Then try to decompile your settings app. After you've made your changes and recompiled the app, open the original apk and your new apk in WinRAR or 7zip, and copy meta-info folder & AndroidManifest.xml from the original apk to your new one. Drag it from one apk to the other, don't extract them at all. This will resign your app with the original system signature. This is usually needed if you're working on system apps or you'll get a bootloop and/or force closes. Hope this helps!

So if I understand you try to decompile and APK and it doesn't work ?
Usually it means that you've made an error modifying your APK.
You already tried to decompile-recompile your APK without modifying anything, but I'll ask you to do it once again, just enter those commands:
apktool d [name of the app].apk
apktool b [name of the app].apk -c
(-c allows to keep the original signature when recompiling)
Tell me if you go an error.
Also, when doing that, don't move any other file in the the decompiled apk, I need to know what happens when the only thing you do is decompile-recompile.
Thanks !
