Where do I get Xamarin.Android debug symbols? - android

I have built an app and released it to the sotres.
The app is connected to appcenter.
On iOS, I can get the dsym file and upload to appcenter without problem.
But with Android, appcenter tells me to upload ".so" files, wheras these files are not generated by Xamarin in the bin or obj folders.
So, I'm kind of confused.
Please can someone tell me where to get these simbols ?

I lost my shared object file with debug symbols for android app. Is it possible to re-generate it for a particular version of the app?

I lost my shared object file with debug symbols for android app. Is it possible to re-generate it for a particular version of the app?
I have been told that its not possible. Even if I try to use the same code (that is in production) and re-generate build, its highly unlikely that I will be able to use generated .so file to debug my app which is already in prod
The android doc mentions:
Known issue: When attaching debug symbols to an APK, both the APK and debuggable .so files must be built using the same workstation or build server.
I am not sure what this means though. Can someone please help me in understanding this?
Thanks in advance.

App Recovery - Decompiling Android Project Classes From APK

I am currently working on an android app but my hard drive unfortunately crashed and I lost all the data on it... I am trying to recover my source code from the debug APK I had installed on my phone (using dex2jar and jd-gui) however, it seems like the classes are not present in the classes.dex and classes2.dex (both files are tiny and do not contain any of the classes in my code, see photo).
I used apk extractor to get the apk from my installed app and I cant seem to get anything close to my original classes... I am wondering if I am doing something wrong to get the APK from the installed app; any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
For de-compiling your APK to Java classes you can go to this site -
http://www.javadecompilers.com/apk
Just upload your apk and click on decompile. It should work for you !

How to test android application by client in meantime of development?

Hi i am new to android development.
I am creating one application. I need to send sample application to client for testing purpose.
In iPhone development we can send .ipa file to client using TestFlightApp. Is there any way to do this similar way for Android application testing.
Please help me in this issue.
Thanks in advance
each time you build your application, an apk file is created in your project's bin folder. you can use that file for testing purposes
Right click on your application project folder
Scroll down to Android tools
click on : Export as signed Android application
Use the debug key located on your sdk folder to sign the app
,the password's key : android
and you will get a debug signed apk ready to install on any device .
To keep track of your apks you may create a string variable and use it as build tag so you don't get confused by multiple apks .
I'm doing so on my project , you can also create an unsigned apk but I don't know if you will be able to install it on a real device .
Some use maven to build the apk but it's more complicated .

How to make BrowerPlugin apk as preload app on Gingerbread?

I have a webkit plugin apk (just like the sample BrowserPlugin under development/samples). I want to integrate it into the system.img. I build it as the preload apk in /system/app/, but when the phone boot up, the apk is not installed properly.
If I install the apk in /data/app/ manually, it works well.
when the apk in /system/app/, the .so inside the apk can not be extracted to /data/data//lib/
Anyone know how to integrate the webkit plugin as a preload apk on Gingerbread, please kindly help me.
Thanks
.so file should be merged to the system.img separately. If it's a browser plug-in, it should be copied to /system/lib/plugins/<package_name>
It looks like there's no mechanism in android to extract .so file from an apk file that contains .so files if it's integrated with the system.
