Hey guys...heres the APK manager v4.9 by daneshm90.....its an easy way to edit apks......
So i have written a simple script to ease the process of editing apks. Got a lot of downloads so thought its in demand
Whether you're doing basic image editing or editing the smali or xml files, on average u have to use (Brut.all or JF's smali/baksmali) awesome tool to extract the apk, edit it, then sign the apk and then adb push/install it. This process is quite tiresome if you are testing a method that needs fine tweaking.
This script should make the process a LOT smoother.
Theres an option of compiling/signing/installing all in one step
Thanks:
Goes to Brut.all for his awesome tool.
Goes to JF for ofcourse, smali/baksmali
Goes to farmatito for porting this script to linux
Features:
- Extract, Zip apk's.
- Optimize pngs (ignores .9.pngs)
- Zipalign apks
- Sign apks
- Push to specific location on phone
- Incorporates brut.all's apktool
- Pull apk from phone into modding environment.
- Batch optimize apk (Zipalign,optipng,or both)
- Quick sign an apk (Batch mode supported)
- Batch Ogg optimization
- Compression level selector (monitor status above menu)
- Batch install apk from script (option 16)
- Logging on/off has been removed. Instead a log.txt is created which logs the activities of the script organized using time/date headers
- User can change the max java heap size (only use if certain large apks get stuck when decompiling/compiling apks) (Option 19)
- Improved syntax of questions/answers
- Error detection. Checks if error occured anytime u perform a task, and reports it
- Read log (Option 20)
- U can now set this script as ur default application for apks. When u do, if u double click any apk it will install it for u.
- Supports batch installation, so if u drag multiple apks into the script (not while its running) it will install them all for u. U can ofcourse drag a single apk as well
- Added framework dependent decompiling (For non propietary rom apks). (Option 10). Checks whether the dependee apk u selected is correct.
- Allows multiple projects to be modified, switch to and from.
- Allows to modify system apk's using apktool but ensures maximum compatibility in terms of signature / manifest.xml
- Stuff i forgot i guess
Instructions (Windows):
- Place apk in appropriate folder (Any filename will work, if running for first time folders will not be there, you must run and then the folders will be created)
- Run script
- Minimize the script
- Edit files inside the project folder
- Maximize the script
Instructions (Linux):
- Place apk in appropriate folder (Any filename will work, if running for first time folders will not be there, you must run and then the folders will be created)
- Open terminal and change-directory to apkmanager (Easiest way is to type "cd ")
- Chmod 755 Script.sh
- Chmod 755 all files apps inside other folder (thanks for the tip bkmo )
- Run script by typing ./Script.sh
- Minimize the script
- Edit files inside the out folder
- Maximize the script
Requirements:
Java
Adb
Future Improvements:
- Manage multiple simultaneous apk edits (choose which apk to extract/build)
- Option to optimize the apks
- Option to adb push to user defined location
- Other stuff i dont know yet.
Windows (v4.9): Download Here
Linux (v4.3): Download Here
Here's the video!!
Got problems ?
1. Make sure your path has no spaces
2. Your filename has no wierd characters
3. Java/adb are in your path
4. It's not a proprietary rom's apk (aka Sense,Motorola,Samsung) (If u are, then use option 11 and drag the required framework, eg com.htc.resources, twframework-res...etc)
5. It's not a themed apk (if it is, expect .9 png errors, use as close to stock as possible)
6. Look at the log to know whats happening
7. If all else fails, post as much info as possible and we will try to assist you.

Nice. Rapidshare link working flawless.
First of all, I am not developer of these softwares. I found them over xda and web and thought to share with all of you, in all good intentions.
ADB Mask Controller
Dev- Mask-1
App info-
• push, pull, install apps and transfer between System <=> User apps and between SD <=> Device
• remove & uninstall apps, clean data from deleted apps and delete orphan files
• change min & max CPU frequency (from available steps)
• view and edit: gps.conf, Hosts, build.prop, hw_config and media_profiles.xml
• view and kill running processes
• zipalign
• keyboard functionality
• search files / folders
• push and pull Bootanimation, framework-res and Framework jar files
• clean cache & temp folders and application data cache
• Enable Market to show paid apps
• Create phone log (logcat, dmesg)
• View device info
• mount r/w and mount r/o (for system) function
• and others.
It's better to backup your data before Zipaligning, because some launchers don't work correctly when they are zipaligned, causing a reboot loop.
To launch the tool
*unzip the package
*run "ADB Mask Controller.exe"
*connect your phone (enable USB debugging)
*If this is the first time you use this tool click on "Check root access and busybox". If you are sure that your phone is rooted and the tool says otherwise, make sure that your phone allows the program to have SuperUser access.
*Busybox is required in order to use this tool. If you get the result "NO" next to the Busybox Version then you must push/install it on your phone.
Hints for Wireless connection:
- To connect your phone by wireless you must install and turn on adbWireless, adb over Wifi or another similar app
- Wireless connection is slower than USB connection. It is not recommended to do advanced tasks using wireless since the connection can be interrupted more easily than USB connections.
- The display must be turned on while connected with wifi (or a wakelock must be enabled through an app e.g. Waketimer) in order to prevent the cpu from going to sleep mode while it's working with wireless adb.

Me personal love most Total Commander for android (see signature link). Seems complicated to configure in the beginning but can nearly everything: root access, ftp, samba, webdav, execute scripts, remount rw, zip, tar, rar, shortcuts &&&.
I forgot since then what root explorer was
EDIT: Oh shhhh... seen too late in topic, it's not a PC app, sorry. But nevertheless very useful.

This NOT MY Work.....

This app will let you easily edit your Android's build.prop file using a intuitive interface.
I'm not responsible for any problem caused by editing the build.prop file.
main page here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1479703
Requirements: This app is compatible with 2.2 or newer and of course needs root access to write to your Android's /system directory.
I'm currently in the process of creating a custom version of AOSP that will edit the functionality of the Host-Card Emulation feature of Android, allowing me to manually set the AID produced when my device goes into emulation mode.
I've downloaded the Android source, and have located the files I think governs HCE functionality.
From the NFC System Service, I've located the following files:
"CardEmulationManager.java" and "HostEmulationManager.java" located in "/aosp/packages/apps/Nfc/src/com/android/nfc/cardemulation/"
And from the Android core framework, for the NFC API I have found:
"CardEmulation.java" located at "/frameworks/base/core/java/android/nfc/cardemulation/CardEmulation.java"
From here, i'm unsure how to get started in editing the code. I'm unsure of the interactions between the files, and how they are called at run (I.e. which functions in the file I should be looking at, how would I go about adding my own code/modifying existing code in the file)
Is there any documentation online about how these files work/are ran? Or how would I go about finding out on my own (Through debugger tools etc.)
I'm currently using Eclipse for Ubuntu, and will be developing for a Nexus 7
Like many of you, I like to keep my Android system rootless and true to stock as much as possible. However, I like to be able to enjoy the native support of layers for better look n feel. I wrote the script attached to help me with it however, it doesn't come easy without root access. There are some work cut out for you, read below.
Prerequisites:
Have extracted theme from layers theme app from Play Store. No, I'm not talking about the main theme app which is used by Layers Manager. Rather, it's the apks that go into the /vendor/overlay. I tried to extract respective apks out of the main one without using Layers Manager. However, my attempts yielded no success as I'm getting FCs all over, so I must be missing something. I current have a Nexus 9 which is rooted with Layers Manager, I use N9 for testing out and bring the /vendor/overlay/*.apk onto my N6P under /sdcard for my script to process. If you know of a better way, by all means share.
Of course, kernel which support INIT.D.
TWRP installed for root access via recovery, a MUST.
Busybox installed via flashable zip
Install:
- Download the script attached
- Rename .txt to .sh
- Have all extracted themed apks in one directory. For instance, I like fa and art layers, so my directory on sdcard as such /sdcard/0flash/layers/fa/fa_*.apk
- Change up the first few lines to match your environment
- Boot into twrp, mount /system if needed
- Drop the script into /system/etc/init.d
- chmod 755 /system/etc/init.d/01layersmanager.sh
- Create a file named ".current_theme" in /sdcard/
- In the above file (.current_theme), put the name of theme you want init.d to install. Example, if I want to install "fa" then I'll just have a line of text fa in it (same goes to art, coalesce,etc). IMPORTANT: no trailing new line.
- Reboot and test it out
- If theme successfully installed, you'll see it.
- Also, the /sdcard/.current_theme file will be updated with "current" to avoid theme installation on next reboot if you don't want to install new themes.
Troubleshoot:
See /sdcard/debug.txt for info. If you want additional information dumped, edit the init.d script to echo out more.
