Apk Easy Tool is a lightweight GUI application that enables you to manage, sign, compile and decompile the APK files for the apps you are working on.

APK Easy Tool is absolute free for commercial and non-commercial use.

Please note: This tool is not meant for newbies, but meant for faster tasks for those who are lazy to use CMD

Requirements:
- Windows 7 or above
- .NET Framework 4.7.2 or above
- Java 8 or JDK 8, doesn't matter which one

Features:
Decompile/Compile
Decomile and compile APK, DEX and JAR files, with SPACE, symbols and germany, danish, swedish etc... characters support. Can cancel during operation

Sign/Zipalign
Signing and ZipAligning of APK/JAR files. Can cancel during operation

Extract/Zip APK
Extract and zip APK with 7z Compression-level 0-9. Can cancel during operation

APK Infomation
Show APK infomation with icon using aapt dump badging and link to Play Store

Framework
Install your framework and manage framework paths

Log output
View your logs to find errors.

Options
Change options of tool, decompile, compile, sign and zipalign. Options: Java heap, Apktool version, apksigner version, directories, java path, Windows explorer integration, remeber window position and more
All options and textboxes are saved as config.xml and will load on launch
Quick options on main.

Drag and drop
Drop APK, DEX, JAR files and Decompiled folder on buttons to perform actions. Drop outside buttons to select/open as file/folder

Apktool.jar version selection
Can switch to other versions of apktool.jar on options
Add other apktool.jar in "Apktool" folder

Shortcuts
4 buttons to open work directories of decompiled APK, compiled APK, extracted APK and zipped APK
Jumplist shortcuts

Windows explorer integration
Do actions by just right-clicking on APK file and choose the following options, decomile or compile APK, DEX, and JAR files, Zipalign APK, Check align, Sign APK and Install APK

Getting started:
For the first time you launch the tool, it will automatically set apktool.jar and work directories for you. You can change it in Options
Keep in mind, it will always check for update on launch. You can disable it in options if you want.

Selecting/opening APK or decompiled folder will be used as your main project work. So if you doing actions, it will be placed in your work directories that was been set.

Spaces are supported but accent characters are barely supported, you may need to rename it before opening APK. APK filename that contains chinese, japanese etc will still not work even code page is set correctly in the Options so you need to rename the APK. I don't know why Windows behave like that.

Drag and drop are supported. The files would be placed on the same directory where the apk came from

You do not need to use Framework unless you know what you are doing, it is for ROM developers and System App modder only

It works the same way as the command line version

Download links:
Installer is no longer released due to an unknown error with Microsoft Visual Studio Installer Projects. It is always buggy, so I gave up. Please use portable version, it's easy to extract and you can easly see the content before you extract

Box

app.box.com

(It can take longer time to update there)

-------------------------------------------

I understand the concern when this tool gets flagged as malware but I can tell you this tool is safe. There is nothing that could potentialy harm your PC. Why would I do that to you?? You may thought i'm evil, but not really, it was just a silly name, it came from a song name called Evil-dog or something. But still, i'm not evil
Also Softpedia labs has tested this tool multipletimes and still reported this tool 100% clean. See here: https://www.softpedia.com/get/Programming/Debuggers-Decompilers-Dissasemblers/Apk-Easy-Tool.shtml

Disclaimer:
Same as apktool, APK Easy Tool is neither intended for piracy, game hacking and other non-legal uses. It could be used for localizing, adding some features or support for custom platforms, analyzing applications and much more. Just try to be fair with authors of an app, that you use and probably like.

If you just joined XDA just to come here, Please follow XDA rules first

This thread is NOT the right place to discuss about general modding like editing smali and xml files, editing png, how to do stuff illegally, decrypting stuff, app crashes etc. I'm NOT here to help with it.
General modding question goes to Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting
Framework and system modding related should be posted at the correct section of your device model, post on Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting if the site does not have a specific model
Please keep this thread on-topic, and anything about apktool related only. I can't help with anything else unless it's really caused by APK Easy Tool or apktool

I won't be able to answer every inquiries stuff that may be already explained here!

Troubleshooting:
It's not unusual that it can't decompile or compile. Please try the troubleshooting below to see if it solves the problem:
Keep in mind that there's a big difference between identifying issues related specifically to the "APK Easy Tool Software" and the "Apktool Java Utility (by iBotPeaches).
More info https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...1-58-3-dec-2020.3333960/page-25#post-79520098. Thanks @Ibuprophen for explaining

Make sure the filename does not contain any symbol or special characters like chinese, japanese, arabic etc since apktool.jar is command line based tool, it does not support it
Use latest version of apktool.jar (See FAQ Below for more info)
If you are using latest version of apktool.jar, try use older version of apktool.jar. Sometimes it can mitigate the issue (See FAQ Below for more info)
Go to Framework tab and clear the framework, and decompile the APK again.
Decompile APK with "Only disassemble the main dex classes (classes[0-9]*.dex) in the root" checked. Prevents disasemble dex from assets folder) (apktool 2.4.1 and up only)
Decompile APK with "Don't decode resources.arsc" checked if you are only editing Java (smali) (It will prevent the decompile of resources. This keeps the resources.arsc intact without any decode.)
Decompile APK with "Don't decode classes.dex" checked if you are only editing the resources (xml) (--no-src will prevent the disassembly of the dex file(s). This keeps the apk dex file(s) and simply moves it during build.)
Compile with "Use the aapt2 binary instead of aapt" checked (Use the aapt2 binary instead of appt)
Sometimes Java 8 64-bit works better than Java 8 32-bit. If your system is Windows 64-Bit, please uninstall Java 32-bit version (and all other Java versions you don't use) and install Java 64-bit version (Windows Offline (64-bit)) or install JDK 8 64-bit (Windows x64) if you are developing Java. Java and JDK does not matter for apktool.jar
Sometimes your antivirus may prevent it from working correctly. Disable it temporary

If nothing solves your problem, please check list of Apktool.jar errors

I recommended that you search the issues on Apktool Github repo too

FAQ:
Q: Can you support .aab (Android app bundle)/Split APK format?
A: Never, apktool is intended for APK ONLY. I don't have time to research and create another tool and i'm not a fan of 'Split APK' technology. Just use any APK sites such as APK Combo to download standalone APK, or use a tool called Split APKs Packer (SAP) to merge split APKS into standalone APK. There is no harm working with standalone APK.

If you still need split APK, please look for alternative tools

Q: How can I update or downgrade apktool.jar?
A: Download apktool.jar here: https://bitbucket.org/iBotPeaches/apktool/downloads/
Place apktool.jar inside \APK Easy Tool\Apktool. Restart the tool if running
Go to Options and switch apktool version

Do not forget to clear the framework after switching version!

Q: I'm getting an error "'Java' is not found as an internal or external command"
A: Reinstall Java or JDK

Q: I'm getting an error "java.lang.OutOfMemoryError"
A: Go to Options tab and increase Java heap size

If your system is Windows 64-bit, please uninstall Java 32-bit version (and all other Java versions if you don't use) and install Java 64-bit version (Windows Offline (64-bit)) or install JDK 8 64-bit (Windows x64) if you are developing Java. Java and JDK do not really matter for apktool

I'm getting an error " Error occurred during initialization of VM. Could not reserve enough space for (...)KB object heap"
A: Go to Options tab and reduce Java heap size. Recommended size: 1024m

Q: I'm getting an error "brut.androlib.AndrolibException: brut.common.BrutException: could not exec (exit code = -1073741701)"
This is basically the problem with Java 32-bit.
32-bit is old and support will be stopped on apktool 2.6.0. Please consider to switch to Windows 64-bit system if you still using 32-bit system, and install Java 64-bit version (Windows Offline (64-bit)) or install JDK 8 64-bit (Windows x64) if you are developing Java. Java and JDK do not really matter for apktool

Q: Window is not opening but still appear in taskbar
A: The window is out of screen, edit the config.xml and change

                                  <CheckBoxWinPos>true</CheckBoxWinPos>

                                  <CheckBoxWinPos>false</CheckBoxWinPos>

Q: Drag and drop does not work
Do not run it as administrator. Windows never allow drag and drop if an application running as administraor for security reason

Q: How to update or delete AETShellExt.dll?
A: If you are using shell extension for APK Easy Tool and you want to update, you must unregister and uninstall it first

Open APK Easy Tool. Go to options -> General and click Uninstall to uninstall Context menu integration. It will ask you for admin rights
Windows 8/10: Open Task Manager and restart all explorer.exe processes
Windows 7: Open Task Manager, end task all explorer.exe processes and run new task explorer.exe

Then you can replace or delete AETShellExt.dll and don't forget SharpShell.dll ServerRegistrationManager.exe too

Q: Is drag and drop supported?
A: Yes it supports drag and drop APK/ZIP file Simply drop a file on buttons to do something.
Examples:
- Drop an APK file on "Decompile APK" button to decompile APK in the same directory
- Drop an APK file outside (drop file on white background) to select APK to work on.

Q: How can I reset APK Easy Tool?
A: Go to Options -> General. Scroll down and click Reset to default. You can also manually delete config.xml beside its exe

Q: Is APK Easy Tool collecting any data?
A: No, we respect your privacy very seriously. It can only connect to my read-only repo server that checks for updates. I don't own a real server that is writeable

Q: Do you release the source code?
A: No, it's my decision and you should respect that. There are already open source projects on Github that can help you getting started

https://github.com/INF1NUM/APKToolGUI
https://github.com/oscar0812/ApktoolFX

Q: Alternatives?
A: I do like other nice alternatives, I don't competing against them. Try out Tickle My Android, a command line tool that are also easy to use. And if you are fan of IDE, try out APK Studio or APKLab. There are a lot more of tools than that. But don't expect that using other tools will always solve any Apktool issues

Note:
- The tool has become a bit too advanced so we remove some features to keep it simple and to proper maintaining
- As of apktool.jar 2.5.0, 32 bit support is deprecated. Once 32 bit support is removed from apktool, APK Easy Tool will also have 32 bit support removed. 32 bit is dead now

Changelog:
- Updated apktool.jar to 2.5.0
- Language improvements
- Updated adb, zipalign, aapt, apksigner from Android SDK 30.0.2
- Logs and history now stored in temp folder C:\Users\(username)\AppData\Local\Temp\AET. They should be stored temporary, not permanently. You can also use any disk cleaner to clear your temp folder which also clears APK Easy Tool's icon cache, logs and history
- Added signature signing options. v4 signing disabled by default so it doesn't create useless .idsig file

- You can press ESC to cancel which would kill process of java.exe, adb.exe, zipalign.exe and 7z.exe. This is not recommended to do
- Added status bar. It's easier to work with it than custom yellow notice bar
- Removed log date. I don't think anyone will ever look back of their logs
- Removed log level
- Removed replace spaces with underscore. You can use PowerToys which has PowerRename that does the job
- Removed signapk.jar since it's too old and slow
- Removed ZIP signing since not many using this much. APK Easy Tool should be more focused on APK. Please use an alternative tool for ZIP signing https://forum.xda-developers.com/an...g/tool-zip-builder-v4-2-1-build-sign-t3739556
- Removed quick options because the UI looking bit awkward. It should be simple and more space for multi-languages
- Removed disable tooltip checkbox. Now it is always shown

aren't you suppose not to sign system apps? is it possible with this tool?

Ya, I wondered about this too? Looking at the GUI, it appears there is no Option to Re-Compile without Signing. Any help/advice?

I didn't think about it, because i was thinking that the APK can't install without signing so i added sign apk. i have never tried to sign system apps because i don't develop system apps but i will fix it asap

ok,there is a problem. when I try to recompile there is nothing hapening. the compiled apks folder is empty. With this app http://mdc.html5.qq.com/?channel_id=20820

i'm sorry to hear that. have you checked the log.txt inside APK Easy Tool?

I am getting this error in log file:
Decompiling...

'java' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
But l have Java installed on my pc :confused:
Edit: l forget to add Java PATH nevermind.
Can you add clone apk function in this tool?

oh ok, and can you give me more details about cloning an apk?

Thanks!

Looks like the error caused by a file misspelling at C:\New folder (4)\APK Easy Tool\Decompiled APKs\qqbrowser_6.5.0.2170_20820.apk\AndroidManifes t.xml

Rename the file to AndroidManifest.xml and try again

qqbrowser_6.5.0.2170_20820.apk

i tested it again and its work with jbak.apk,decompiled,recompiled and signed, that ok. but not work with qqbrowser,only work when decompiling but cant recompile. can you test it? here is the log and the files.

I have tested it on any apk tools and all of them failed to re-compile. It seems the APK is preventing from recompiling. I will contact the owner of apktool.jar to see if he can help

Ok,thanks. The same situation is with uc browser.
