A tool for reverse engineering Android apk files

Apktool

This is the repository for Apktool. If you are looking for the Apktool website. Click here.

Apktool is a tool for reverse engineering third-party, closed, binary, Android apps. It can decode resources to nearly original form and rebuild them after making some modifications; it makes it possible to debug smali code step-by-step. It also makes working with apps easier thanks to project-like file structure and automation of some repetitive tasks such as building apk, etc.

Apktool is NOT intended for piracy and other non-legal uses. It could be used for localizing and adding features, adding support for custom platforms, and other GOOD purposes. Just try to be fair with the authors of an app, that you use and probably like.

apktool's Issues

Gradlew.bat

There is a few mistakes in the file I will be forking the repository and will have a working fix for it mainly the bug is in the structure in line 23 when it its looking in the java_home it should be java.exe not bin/java.exe

apktool.yml reports incorrectly.

Sometimes when recompiling, it shows Frames used = 1

but on re-compile it fails, because it needs 1, and either 2 or 3.

When decompiling, not correctly reporting the frames used.

Fixed version works with everything but framework-res

version: 1.4.5.5e49d31
apkFileName: AntiSpam.apk
isFrameworkApk: false
usesFramework:
  ids:
  - 1
  - 3

Gradle

I found more gradle bugs:

1. There is no android-framework.jar in \brut\androlib (default framework should be there)
2. There are many duplicate zip entries in apktool build(as example in antlr folder you can find two copies of each file). If rezip apktool(this will remove duplicate files), apktool size will reduce from 7.5 to 4.99 mb.

Class brut.androlib.BuildAndDecodeTest

I can type aapt in term all day and it will run no matter what directory I try from so no clue why I am getting:

fail to patch google talk for jeally bean version

Here is the google talk apk extracted from jeally bean phone.

I try to decompile it using apktool, but the smali folder is missing after decomilation. Thank You

patched aapt for mac

As I know, we need a patched aapt to work.

But the mac version of aapt in http://miui.connortumbleson.com/other/apktool/aapt/ does not work.

Illegal instruction: 4 is thrown when the aapt is ran in Mac 10.8.1

Phone.apk from MoKee OS (API 10) and JellyBean (API 16) Bluetooth.apk (SGS3) - wrong styles in Manifest.

Hi.
apktool decodes styles in wrong format:

1. Bluetooth.apk from SGS3 JB AOKP ROM
   in AndroidManifest.xml we see "@_android:style/AlertDialog.DeviceDefault.Light.ProgressDialog", but we need "@_android:style/AlertDialog.DeviceDefault.Light"
   After changing that strings Phone.apk compiles w/o errors.
2. Phone.apk from MoKee OS (API 10, 2.3.7 based)
   We see in manifest "@*android:style/Theme.Phone" but I don't know what value will be right for this theme style.

If you need I could provide all these apks.

Code error

I found this bug a while ago when I stumbled upon a namespace resolution issue, forgot the actual symptom, but it is definitely a bug:

In brut.apktool/apktool-lib/src/main/java/brut/androlib/res/decoder/AXmlResourceParser.java

line 773:
for (int o = 0; o != m_attributes.length; ++o) {
Should be:
for (int o = 0; o != m_attributes.length; o+=ATTRIBUTE_LENGHT) {

Switching the XML up

<anim name="htc_ime_decelerate_interpolator">@anim/zzz_htc_ime_decelerate_interpolator</anim> <item type="anim" name="htc_ime_decelerate_interpolator">@anim/zzz_htc_ime_decelerate_interpolator</item>

It seems to be wrapping the type into the type of XML. It should store that into the type attribute and keep the item node.

Incorrectly decompiling arrays.xml - <string-array becomes <array & </string-array> becomes </array>

When decompiling some apk files, arrays.xml cannot be correctly decompilied. Even mannualy correcting these before recompiling, decompiling the recompilied apk still causes this problem.
Please fix it. Thanks.

"screenSize" value for "configChanges" in AndroidManifest.xml lost

error while decompiling Supersu.apk

I'd used the apk version 1.5.0 to decompile with debug option

What I've done is like the below,

c:>apktool -v d -d e:\Superuser.apk e:\out

error occurred with the message i am attaching
http://www.mediafire.com/view/?d13c8lk2q1wtbsm

here is the Superuser.apk i used
http://www.mediafire.com/?f3g4s3r8yp13bic

I've got the result of .smali files but I couldn't get the .java files

p.s.
there is a small bug,
In Error Message, "Error occured" should be fixed with "Error occurred"

apktool 1.4.9 & 1.4.8 decodes AndroidManifest.xml in not well-formated XML

When I use apktool 1.4.9 Release and 1.4.8 Beta to decompile some apks, I got not well-formated AndroidManifest.xml.

For example, I got:

<manifest android:versionName="3.1.0" android:versionCode="1004" package="com.samsung.inputmethod" android:sharedUserId="android.uid.system" coreApp="true"
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INJECT_EVENTS" />

<application android:icon="@drawable/app_icon" android:label="@string/ime_name"

    <service android:name=".SimeDecoderService" android:exported="true"

        <intent-filter>
            <action android:name="com.samsung.inputmethod.Decoder_Service" />
            <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
        </intent-filter>
    </service>

    <service android:name=".SamsungIME" android:label="@string/ime_name" android:permission="android.permission.BIND_INPUT_METHOD"

        <intent-filter android:priority="1">

        </intent-filter>
        <meta-data android:name="android.view.im" android:resource="@xml/method" />
    </service>

...

For the same apk, go back to use apktool 1.4.7 Release to do decompile, the result is good:

Please investigate and fix it. Thank you.

Decompiling compiling just xml and images

Is there Any easy way to have the tool to just skip decompile and recompile of the (ba)smali. Mainly looking at a themers prospective.

$(version) isn't filled anymore.

Gradle isn't filling version, and the JAR name frankly sucks. It needs to be named apktool-$version-hash.jar

Apktool v${version} - a tool for reengineering Android apk files

Add human readable errors like in smali.jar

I see apktool still doesn't provide good readable compilation errors. Instead it just crashes the same way as long time ago.

i'm not sure which version of smali/baksmali code you use, but smali v1.3.2 already provides good error reporting. For example missing names of labels - which is very helpful if you change a lot of code.

Please add error reporting in apktool.

Decomplied xml files formatted incorrectly

xml formatting is pretty messed up after decompiling

[URL="http://pastebin.com/3MYvfHVQ"][B]What it should look like[/B][/URL]

[URL="http://pastebin.com/9NsDNQ2p"][B]What I am getting with v1.4.9 and the aapt.exe in the OP or the newest from the SDK[/B][/URL]

This happens on all xml files.

Cannot modify/recompile XLMs of Jelly Bean Contacts.apk

I am trying to modify XMLs of Jelly Bean Contacts.apk. Using all apktools (up to 1.4.9) that has been used for ICS and other Jelly Bean apks, I can decompile and then recomplie it without any error. However, the recompiled Contacts.apk would not work in cell phone, showing a message "Unfortunately, Contacts has stopped!".

To simplify the problem, I simply do decompiling and then recompiling without any modifications. I found that the size of resources.arsc has been changed from 1480 KB to 1525 KB. The new Contacts.apk causes FC!

Note: Files in smali folder can still be modified. After editing, use apktool to recompile and create a new apk. Then use WinRAR or 7zip to drag the newly created classes.dex into the original Contacts.apk. Such a "modified" Contacts.apk works properly. Note here that we did not modify resources.arsc.

This problem is only related to resources.arsc! XMLs cannot be recompiled.

Please fix this problem in apktool 1.4.10.

OS X support broken due to spaces in Library path

https://github.com/kckrinke/brut.apktool/commit/b31136728d9fe936b93762a828957eeaac54d820

That's my simple fix for the problem. Java's Runtime.exec has issues with spaces in the arguments. For whatever reason, Java will take the String[] given, flatten it, and then promptly split on spaces again thus breaking apktool for OS X users.

All I did was remove the "Application Support/" part of the path and everything works again.

I would have submitted a pull request but I think I b0rked my fork somehow and will investigate later.

Cosmetic fix: "test" word in output.

While decompiling apktool outputs:
I: Baksmaling...
testI: Copying assets and libs...

"test" is something like very very old debug info from original baksmali.

Support for deodexing

Smali 1.4.0 is out http://code.google.com/p/smali/ and it mentions that deodexing is much simpler now. No more need to supply the correct bootclasspath entries, just the framework dir.

In addition to catching up to the latest version (I don't know what tweaks does ApkTool does on top of it), is it feasible to:

• Support deodexing directly from ApkTool by passing in an extra flag (such as smali's -x) and having the .odex file paired with the apk, and the framework dir also indicated on the command line?
• Expose the additional smali flags directly from the main jar? Right now it's possible to request the class "org.jf.baksmali.main" instead of the main one with -jar, but does it make sense to add the additional smali flags such as -f, -l, -r???, -s to the top level ApkTool commands?

Multiple frameworks

Is it possible to add work with multiple frameworks? I have several devices and also several android versions.
Is it possible to add command line option which will tell where to look for framework resources?

Is it still possible to perform smali debugging with the latest apktool?

The past apktools up to ver 1.4.1 allows debugging with netbeans 6.8.
This is due to the fact that the files decompile are in .java instead of .smali.
Furthermore, netbeans 6.8 allows placing breakpoints in commented code.

However, I have been having problems with these deprecated/outdated tools.

I was wondering if it is still possible to debug with the latest version 1.5? Or are there other ways to go around it?

These examples were obtained on the 1.10.5.0 version of the BBS app, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1179809
2 different errors (perhaps there are additional types) - analyzeAgetWide, analyzeAgetObject.

Still in this example, XYMultipleSeriesRenderer fails but simpler classes like XYSeriesRenderer or plain interfaces / abstract classes don't raise errors.

formatted=false

    if (ResXmlEncoders.hasMultipleNonPositionalSubstitutions(mRawValue)) {
        serializer.attribute(null, "formatted", "false");
    }

was being run by not working. Also, plurals/arrays never run this. Even though theres true xlif data in there. We need to add counter to fix the $1 $2 issue.

Small counter per node. Reset once done.

Build screwed: Frames are being written incorrectly.

Somehow the frames are being written badly. Will check.

smali/baksmali v1.3.3.

Merge them into apktool v1.4.7

Widening of android:textUnderlineThickness property to include font type/string

If the android:textUnderlineThickness property is filled with a font name or string, it results into an error
e.g: sans-serif-light
and the error goes this
error: Error: String types not allowed (at 'android:textUnderlineThickness' with value 'sans-serif-light')

This property is probably introduced with JellyBean and is present in JellyBean PlayStore in styles.xml

Update smali/baksmali

I should stop updating to dev releases. Makes this too much trouble.

Currently on the 1.3.4-dev branch I'm on, some APKs cannot be decompiled. Yet the newest 1.3.4-dev works fine. Have to update it.

Error in multiple substitutions check...

Hi!
Try to decompile and compile back these apks (Phone.apk and PIM.apk) from LeWa OS:
http://www.mediafire.com/?hnmexasxme2tg6y

1. Phone.apk

\Phone\res\values-zh-rTW\strings.xml:202: error: Multiple substitutions specified in non-positional format; did you mean to add the formatted="false" attribute?

There is a single "%" symbol in that line (like 78%). Apktool 1.4.2 can handle it without errors.

1. PIM.apk

\PIM\res\layout\act_edit.xml:8: error: Error: No resource found that matches the given name (at 'background' with value '@*android:drawable/item_background_holo_dark_left').
etc.

Again, new apktool can't handle some xmls. 1.4.2 version recompiles this apk w/o errors.

Extra &amp; being added to XML files

Please help to fix a problem introduced since the original brut version of apktool: http://code.google.com/p/android-apktool/issues/detail?id=101

In addition to the "& a m p;" being decoded as "& a m p ; a m p ;" problem, " & l t;" also being decoded as "& a m p ; l t". (sorry for the addtional white spaces)

Please take care of it. Thank you.

Redo of strings handling.

As per.

http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/resources/string-resource.html

<string name="welcome_messages">Hello, %1$s! You have %2$d new messages.</string>

It seems if there is only one, as just %s or %d, then its probably to trigger formatted="false". Or simply just change it to %1$s.

Which I might do
