General :: Extracting And Editing OBB Files?
Jul 24, 2013
how to extract an .obb file so that one can edit the contents. In my other thread [URL] where I was trying to figure out a way to activate the Japanese vocal track in Final Fantasy IV with the game's locale in the US/English. I've hit an impasse as I've been able to deduce that the Google play version of the game (which seems to have a 15mb .apk, and a 400+mb .obb ) retains the Japanese audio track but only plays it in conjunction with JP text if the Android locale/language is Japanese. Thus, I figure that somewhere in that .obb there will be the JP audio track file which I can copy over the English audio track file and thereby access Japanese audio w/ English text since SquareEnix didn't give us the option for some god-awful reason.
However, the only way this can work is if I can get into that .obb file! I saw links elsewhere on the forum suggesting that all I had to do was rename the .obb to a .zip or .rar, and then use 7zip or WinRAR to open it, but attempts with both programs and numerous file types (.zip, .rar , .tar etc..) all report that the file is not an archive and thus cannot be opened. This is different from the .apk file, which easily seems to (upon rename to zip) unveil its secrets with 7zip extraction. So, does an program or method necessary to unpack/extract/read/edit an .obb file besides the simple archive rename? Is there some Android development program or function?

I'd like to extract classes.dex from an APK file. I've tried using aapt, but I can't see an option for extracting the files. When I run the aapt tool without options it prints out the list, dump, package, remove, add and version commands, but it doesn't seem to me like any of them extracts files. Could someone please tell me which options I would have to use to do it?

so the story behind this mini-tutorial is that I live with other people that have Galaxies and I upgrade their phones periodically, as part of the upgrade process I have to wipe the phones and a nandroid backup doesn't always work (like if you go from 1.5 to 1.6.3.4) and with the wipe some important things are lost: APN settings, Hebrew fonts, Hebrew Keyboard, etc.I have to install the keyboard, fonts, script utility, etc. every time on every phone; some of these apps are in the market, but to use the market you need to do the setup wizard to add your Google account to the phone. And sine sometimes the owners of the phones aren't around, I need to have the .apk files with the apps I need to install so I can do it without downloading them from the market. Hence, I had to figure out a way to extract the .apk files from my phone so I could install them on theirs. Here's how it's done:Prerequisites:
- Android SDK
- Android USB driver

I am wondering if there is a way to modify or edit a .apk file or files inside an .apk file, & then be able to repack/compress the .apk to be able to put back on phone.
1. can this be done
2. what do i need
3. how is it done.
Im asking b/c I have a few game apps that have some of the files (i assume, they are jpg, or png files) dont fit my screen right, they are too big & are partly cut off, so i want to resize them & put them back on my phone.

Seeing how this keyboard works on 2.1, I'd definitely love to get this working on 2.2 somehow. I want to try to experiment with this apk and see what I can possibly change in order to get it to work on 2.2. Does anyone know what files that may need to be edited within the apk? I just need a direction to start going in. Also I've downloaded "APK Manager" can I maybe do something there?

Is this even possible on non rooted phones? i know on rooted phones you can go in and edit the png files in the .apk meaning you can change the icons for the apps and widgets etc. this caught my interest, being something that i could do as possibly an introduction into the developer side of the eris. just wanted to see if it would be possible to reinstall an edited apk file onto a non rooted phone

I was using Astro and i found the folder on the Hero that has all the boot images, sounds, and animations. i was trying to create my own custom animations and put them in there to replace the others. Well when i try to copy the files into the folder it says i have insufficient permission so i was wondering if anyone knew of a way around that without rooting or something like that!

So I extract any APK, and then go into "Res" folder, but all I see is the icon for the apk.
Where are the rest of images?
- I also have "show hidden files" on my pac/pc turned on.

So I know how to extract APKs with APK manager.
However, I want to know, when you extract APKs, where are the images of the APK located?
In which folder when you extract the APK files, are the images?
- It used to be easier back in the day, you would extract and all the images would just be there.

I just finished Final fantasy 4 (android), and I wanted to have the remastered soundtracks from it. But on the internet the remastered version is not available yet, I could only find the old soundtracks.
I tried screencast recorder, z screen recorder etc(to record video+audio then extract audio), but they all record audio from the microphone, so that didn't work out. is there a way to extract the audio from the game somehow, or some on screen audio recorder for android devices?

Is there any editing software you can use right on the phone? For example, for podcasts or songs I have on the phone, if I want to keep just a piece of one, is there anything I can use right on the phone to trim the file down?

I have been playing with apktool to learn how apps are made. Decompiled following the guide from this forum.
However I can't find what I'm looking for in the apps. For example, it's easy to edit the drawable folders of the apps and change the images.
I took some apps that gather feeds from news sites and I tried to find where are the feeds URLs coded or embedded inside the apps files, and could not find any info at all. No URLs at all. I opened the XMLs, and other files inside res, lib or smali folders, opened a lot of the files with Notepad++ and I can't find any information about it, or any place where the app connects to the website.
Is it possible to access that info when we decompile with apktool?
I also watched a lot of videos in YouTube, on how to edit apps with apktool, and all of them explain how to change the images, but nothing else.
Is it only possible to edit the theme/design of an app, when we decompile with apktool? Or can we go further and change something else?

I have a Droid Bionic, and I have been trying to modify a version of Dungeon Hunter 2 to fit my screen. I have been using APK Manager to decompile the files. When I was trying to change the resolution in the gamerenderer.smali, the layout was different from other gameloft games. I can paste the text when needed.

I want to edit a apk file so that I can edit its notification tone. I found the notification tone and changed it but after compiling it and installing it gives me a error "App not installed".
For decompiling used 7zip and changed the notification tone and then zipped it back. This is the first time I am editing a file.

I've been out of the game for a while when it comes to making videos and editing them. I stopped fooling around with the hobby about eight years ago because it was such a hassle at the time, Sony handycam, the micro tapes, play the movie to put it on the computer, then edit it and put it in what was the thing then "mpeg4".
Will I bought myself a droid x two years ago and was gonna take up the hobby then but technology has come so far since eight years ago and the thought just scares me. Now I have a razr maxx, and i wanna start making videos, what kind of software would you suggest, what formats of videos are there now?
I feel that a cell phone would make the quality videos I'm interested in, it much better than my old Sony handycam

I'm trying to cook a rom and i want to set a style (sliding tab) as a default for lockscreen and incall lockscreen. I think i have to edit or add some line in lockscreen_style_settings.xml that is stored in CMParts.apk
esxml
Or maybe i have to edit settings.xml stored in Settings.apk
esxml?
I think I have to edit CMParts.apk, esxmllockscreen_style_settings.xml because when i my backup's datadatacom.cyanogenmod.cmpartsshared_prefs there is a file named com.cyanogenmod.cmparts_preferences.xml that contain's some line's about lockscreen.
Here is the com.cyanogenmod.cmparts_preferences.xml line's:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8' standalone='yes' ?>
<map>
<boolean name="pref_trackball_wake" value="true" />
<string name="pref_install_location">0</string>
[Code] .....
I decompiled the CMParts.apk but i dont know which line's should be edited or what to add!

I don't know if this is an android problem or more device related. All I know for certain is that its one giant headache. I thought it was just a matter of getting used to a different keyboard feel and figured I'd give it a while.
But its been several weeks now and its still Many times if its just a minor typo I'll just leave it rather than go through the torture of editing it.
The main problem is that it cannot be placed with precision. If you try it just jumps around from back to forth and line to line.
I know I'm used to the way it works on iPhone where you can get it approx near where you want it and them just press down firmly to move it to the precise place you want it.
Its impossible for me to do that with this cursor so I have to keep taking multiple stabs at it and hope for the best. I have pretty small hands and fingers and am obviously quite used to online keyboatds. But this thing is driving me nuts.
Am I the only one with this problem? Or is there just some little trick or technique of which I'm totally I the dark about?

There are a lot of apps, like motocast, which enable me to access all my files on my Mac remotely via my Razr. But I don't know of a way of editing this document and then saving it back to the mac.
