APK Studio is a cross-platform IDE for reverse-engineering (decompiling/editing) & recompiling of android application binaries within a single user-interface. It features a friendly IDE like layout, with a code editor which support syntax highlighting for Android SMALI (*.smali) code files.
- Make sure JAVA_HOME point to a valid JDK (JRE may not work)
- Point the Vendor Path in Edit > Settings to a valid folder having contents of this archive
- A recommended location to extract above archive might be ~/.apkstudio/vendor
- You can now start de/re-compiling
Note: If you encounter any problems, make sure to check Console Output at bottom of IDE to get the output of command which was actually executed by program.
