Hi folks,
I need help with an app I've created. First, it's worth mentioning that I'm not a developer (I'm a graphic designer) and I've created the app today with Conduit Mobile, an easy app dev platform for noobs like myself. We're initially using this app to see if it gains enough interest to justify hiring a real life developer.
During compiling the app, Conduit messed two things up. The app PNG icon no longer has a clear background and the splash screen has been stretched and watermarked with their logo.
So I figured I'd just open the APK in WinRAR and replace the two images.
Obviously now installation fails and I can't reupload the modified APK to the Play Store and I'm guessing that's to do with signing?
I've tried three different signing methods but honestly I have no idea what I'm doing, or even why.
Any help would be appreciated.

Do not modify the png file names.
Sign it with eclipse and download android sdk

I haven't modified the PNG names. I already have the SDK and just installed Eclipse but I still have no idea.
I don't mind if someone wants to do it for me! I'll buy you a beer.

Edit: I'm a genius. I done it with a little android app called ZipSigner 2
Double Edit: **** knows!

I want to create my own app are there any free or cheap tools to build own. I want it to be able to be able to stream videos, listen and read rss feeds and send credit card info. Any advice or points in the right direction would be very helpful. Thanks
Eclipse, and you need to know java language. Otherwise you can't just have a tool create everything for you.

I'm also interested in trying my hand at apps and games. Is Eclipse and Java the only route or are there other methods? I've heard of using Flash designer, but I don't know. price is not an issue for me, quality of the app/game is, so if there is a "better" way than eclipse I would like to know. Not saying Eclipse is bad(because I have NO clue). just would like to know all the options, free or paid, on how to create for both phones and tablets.

You can develop your own application if you know java language with the help of Eclipse and ADT Plugin along with android SDK and any platform that you want to develop for in the SDK (Thats lots of tools there but once you setup you can develop unlimited amount of apps or games) You can download android sdk from developer.android.com/sdk/index.html and eclipse from eclipse.org (google download eclipse)...
For resources and tutorials (i.e to begin developing your own first app) setup android sdk and eclipse and visit to developer.android.com/resources/index.html (there are lots of tutorials and code to help you get along)
All the best with software development.......

Also everything you get to setup a environment for developing is free of cost and for developing in phone or tablets choose the os platform in android sdk and download the os that the device is running on...
Also Ecplise is the best for the job. (I think you can also use netbeans or othere java editors to edit souce code but not so sure)
For more detailed info on setting environment for developing your own applicaitons and games at your own personal computer please see this http://yagyagaire.blogspot.com/2011/09/how-to-develop-your-own-applications.html article.

There's also intellij IDEA, which has a free (opensource IDE) that comes with all their android development tools. It lacks the GUI building that eclipse has, but it makes up for it with other things. I bought their paid version when it was 50% off sometime ago for the extra features it had like python and php editing.

lol...no. that's like asking if you can convert from a windows execute to something you can run on linux (without wine).
Probably a simple solution for this, however I'm new to making applications and this is frustrating me.
I made a couple of simple apps to view a couple of websites for a work project (we are giving away a couple of tablets for a promotion and want our websites pre-installed in app format).
I just used app inventor to make them as they are really simple. However app inventor won't let me save the apps with spaces or other characters in the name.
The 2 apps just need to be renamed to show as their names when installed "Haystack Info" and "Moore & Scarry". As you can see my current naming is kinda lame and my boss wants it changed.
here are the apks:
http://www.mediafire.com/file/xh5b3jwu20qdzni/MooreandScarry.apk

I already tried using marketizer but that kept giving me errors, same with "app to market".
Any help is much appreciated

anyone? I've searched around and I'm not having any luck with this. I tried de-compiling the apps and editing the manifest but I'm having issues recompiling it
hello. i am interested in how to mod an apk for offline capability.
for example, Asphalt 8 game, is now version 1.2.1b i have searched offline mods, i only find "unlimited money". i just want offline, no money, no nothing.
i have apktool, i have java development, i have signapk, i have software for apk midification. can you guys help me? either make my apk offline, or tell me how to do it?
It's not simple and depends on the app. If you're asking I suppose you have no idea how an app actually works? If so, there isn't much you can do…
Basically, you need to look for the relevant checks and modify/remove them.

i do know how apk's work, in fact i have decompiled and modified a fiew, signed and all such. but only minor stuff in resources or xml. i did not touch the smali. now the problem is i have no idea for what strings to search. except the "enable internet check" and some lines. but i suspect that's not all. because after i modified that, the building gave me 6 errors.
First I'm sorry for my English's mistakes,I'm brazilian.There are a long time ago that I already knew about xda site but I just joined in it now because I need a lot help into apk development.I develop games in Construct 2(paid) for Android but when I finish my game in the program I get a HTML version of it and sent to Adobe Phonegap because like this I can get a apk without the boring problems of make it in ConcoonJS.My problem is when it get back the apk because the apk comes just like a ''raw'' project.What I want to mean is that the apk by the way doesn't come with a icon/logo(I think that like this it must come without the name of the company for instance too-n other words just a apk with a log ''build app'' and the game).In Unity we can put icon,name of company,compatibity and another things but I prefer to make in Construct my game because Unity is more complex than.SO what I want is a program that can give these informations for my developeds apks.
Thanks A LOT to everybody that answers my question!
Instead of using PhoneGap, try to use Intel XDK and use Crosswalk as the wrapper for the game. Much less issues and you have better control over versions and plugins. Plus, it's free for unlimited apps, unlike phonegap.
So I've been currently stumbling across old games I've been playing on my android mobile devices as a kid. Since nostalgia overwhelmed me, I went to the GooglePlaystore to Install a certain Game again, I couldn't find it at first, so I used an external link to the Game in the Playstore, installed it then, just to see a Notification in the Home Screen, that the game has shut down and is "no longer playable". Yeah screw that. I found an APK of it, after hours of seraching, that is working, however the Game is completely offline...which is totally fine, except for the fact that I would like to increase the Ingame Currency. Now the question is, is it possible to mod those? I can't use a free in app pirchase mod, sincs, as i said, game is offline so I can't even click on the offers.
I will be forever grateful to everyone who can help my with that, since I am unfortunately still at the beginning of my road in modding. Thanks and have a good day!
I'd be happy if someone could suggest a solution because I also have a nostalgia for a few games. However, I think this case needs a hack and without the right skills it's impossible.

to get an idea what's the effort to mod an APK look inside here:
Decompile an APK, modify it and then recompile it
I need to modify an existing APK, modify the sources and then recompile it. I can decompile it using dex2jar or apktool, it's working great From the jar file I can obtain the java sources (using ...
