miyaku / apktool Goto Github PK

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. I Decompile settings.apk
2. Then I open folder settings_src
3. But, I cannot find file apktool.yml inside
4. That is my problem, because if not include apktool.yml the apk cannot 
recompile .

I HOPE SIR DONGFANG help me

I: Using Apktool 2.0.0-Beta7 on Mms_src
I: Copying classes.dex file...
I: Building resources...

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
 apktool4.4.1, Im on Andriod 4.2.2

Please provide any additional information below.
 Am using a ported Oppo Find 5 ROM on my Galaxy S4 i9500

I have been attempting to run the apktool command, but to no avail. 

If possible, could you provide clearer instructions on how to run the apktool 
command? 

Can any application run the apktool.sh command once it is extracted to 
/sdcard/apktool/ directory?

Can it only work with your Apktool4.3.1_armhf.apk  application? If so, how to 
run it? 


In general, I would highly appreciate if there were better instructions to 
utilize the work you have done. 

Thanks!!! Hope you provide this really soon.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?


Please provide any additional information below.

I USE SAMSUNG GALAXY Y GT-S5370

when run on android device not root, it only show popup with text "killed: 
operator finish" and not execute.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Decompile on version 4.4
2. Recompile on version 4.1 and 4.2 (decompile works fine)
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

On version 4.1 and 4.2 at first it builds dex, then it says it builds 
ressources but then I see:
could not exec command: [/data/data/per.pqy.apktool/lix/aapt...]
and at the end I see:
caused by: java.io.IOException:Cannot run 
program"/data/data/per.pqy.apktool/lix/aapt":error=13,Permission denied
The expected output should be:
build apk
On version 4.4 it can't decompile at all, with same permission denied error.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

I tried 4.1, 4.2 and 4.4 (both armhf and armel). I'm on android 4.2.2. 
Previously I had used this apk with android 4.1.2 and it was working perfectly.

Please provide any additional information below.

Because of some things I have to use apktool at my phone.
Then I found this, That is awesome!!!
Say thanks to developers again!

using Apktool 4.4 armel version, why sometimes if I open the app, I got 
STUCK(phone is stop running) ?? first open after installation is OK, but 2nd or 
3rd or so on, it got stuck . And all I have to do then is force my phone to 
reboot by holding power/lock button. After reboot, if I open the app, I got 
stuck again. So, once it got stuck, it will stuck again and again unless I 
re-install the app. This happen on 4.4(armel) only, but, version 4.3(armel) is 
work fine here. Armhf version is not compatible with my device.

My device is SAMSUNG GALAXY Y GT-S5360, using stock based ROM, thanks in 
advance. 

sorry, bad english..
