How to open the sketch file in windows - android

I have downloaded the icon set from google.
https://developers.google.com/identity/branding-guidelines
It has the .SKETCH file. I need to know how to open the file. I have Photoshop and Sketchup 2016.
can anyone assist me to open the file ?
Also if possible please let me know the location of google icon set in .fla or .psd format

For those who have same problem - Icons8 have just released a free tool for opening .sketch files in Windows: https://icons8.com/lunacy.
You can copy CSS of any object and copy plain text for any text layer.
We plan to implement for features soon.

The .SKETCH extension relates to Sketch (https://www.sketchapp.com/). If you're on a Mac, this is dead simple to download, and install.
If you're not on a Mac, Avocode and Zeplin claim to allow you to open the files on any OS, but I've had limited success (you'll have to Google the Application URLs, I don't have enough rep points, yet).
Failing that, Illustrator, Photoshop and GIMP are able to open the SVG and EPS files, and just about anything can open the PNGs.

I recommend Figma, I tried all app mentioned in other answers, Figma was the best for me.

Can't open png, saved with Chrome

Recently I started studying Android development. To get myself started I'm trying to develop a simple app to track my favorite coffee cups. To this end, I thought I'd download the images (sample) of the cups from the official website. The good news is that I can right-click and save them as .png files and Android (Studio) can display them. The challenge I have is that I can't open these png's (e.g. to view or edit) in any other program. I've tried Windows Paint, Photo viewer, IE, GIMP... none work. The only program I can view the images with is Chrome. Of course this doesn't help me edit them.
I've searched for answers, but can't find any.
I've tried renaming to .webp and .jpg, hoping this could do the trick.
I've tried online file type identifier (checkfiletype.com), which then indicates it's a RIFF file, which doesn't seem very helpful, since it is an image and no audio.
When I download the images via e.g. Firefox or IE, I get different file formats, which seem to be significantly larger file size, so I'd prefer to use the Chrome downloads.
I'm out of options. Would anyone know how to get these files opened/edited?
Preferably I'd be able to open with GIMP. At the moment however I'd even be happy to simply settle to be able to view them outside of Chrome.
Despite the extension, it is not a PNG but a Web/P image:
14:21:51 tmp/ >identify -verbose Sample-9148239937566.png
identify: delegate failed `"dwebp" -pam "%i" -o "%o"' # error/delegate.c/InvokeDelegate/1310.
identify: unable to open image `/tmp/magick-30698uSxzl_4IFlIA': No such file or directory # error/blob.c/OpenBlob/2712.
identify: unable to open file `/tmp/magick-30698uSxzl_4IFlIA': No such file or directory # error/constitute.c/ReadImage/540.
14:22:10 tmp/ >file Sample-9148239937566.png
Sample-9148239937566.png: RIFF (little-endian) data, Web/P image
To open it with Gimp you would need a plugin.
Application that determine filetype based on magic number can open them without problem (if they support the format). Others (like Firefox) need to see the proper file extension (rename the file to *.webp).

what font within Android is closest to this image?

I have seen the below font used within several android applications, including Clean Master etc. What free font is closest to this image and how can I make use of it within Android? Thanks
The closest (most similar) font I could find was: Roboto
I dnt know what 'Clean Master' app you have there cause on play store there are tons of apps named so .Maybe you give me exact package name .And I can tell you what font they use.
Any way the idea is you to download the apk file from play store and open it with winrar or something and look into the assets folder , cause there ppls put the fonts most of the times and then they load fonts in app.
You can use this link to download apk's from google play.
http://apps.evozi.com/apk-downloader/?id=com.cleanmaster.mguard
I just downlaoded this and I see in apk's asset folder 6 font files. You can download yourself and see it
*UPDATE
They use this fonts in the apk : Spoon Number , Icomoon and Miso Unit .
you can download them from the link i give you
The font on the right of the image is likely to be Roboto but the large numbers are not. Have you tried using an identification tool such as: https://www.myfonts.com/WhatTheFont/ which allows you to upload an image. Failing that you could chance your luck emailing the developer of the app where you have seen it used.

Mutlilingual support for an already build up APK

I am facing a serious issue here. I built an android and iOS application. Now after I developed it completely and it is running seamlessly, I want it to be multilingual(both android and iOS). Is there any simplest method which I can use now to make both my android and iOS apps multilingual now. The .apk and .ipa files have already been prepared and the project is complete. Please help!!!!
You cannot modify your .apk and .ipa files to be multilingual. I mean, theoretically it's possible but it would be ludicrously difficult. If you are stuck with the .apk and .ipa files you have, then your task is extremely difficult, sorry.
You can modify the android and iOS projects (I am assuming they are separate projects) to provide multiple language versions of the resource files where your user text and images are stored, assuming that you correctly stored all text and images which get displayed to the user in resource files/folders.

Change Android app icons in APK?

Is it possible to change the app icon in an APK in Android apps? I have a tablet running Android 2.2 and the icons are too low-res, so I want to replace them. I tried unzipping the APK, changing the icon and re-zipping, but it didn't work. Is there any way I can change the icon, even programmatically, to reflect the higher-res icon?
APK files are actually nothing more than zip files. If you just want to replace images, then the easiest way is to open the apk file in 7-zip or winrar and replace the png files in there with your own. Just drag your new files to the 7-zip window.
Note that I said "open" and not "unzip". Once you decompress it, the signature will no longer be valid.
Another option is to use APKManager to do it. This way you do not need to install it in /system/app:
Download APK Manager
Put the .apk in "place-apk-here-for-modding"
Run the script.bat and extract it.
Drop the new PNG files in /res/drawable-?dpi overwriting the old ones.
Run ZIP .apk and select option 2 Regular APK
Sign the APK
Install
Summary
One the simplest ways is to change APK icons via user-friendly GUI tools:
APK Editor Studio – advanced but still easy-to-use APK editor.
APK Icon Editor – plain and simple APK editor.
Both tools are free and open-source (written in C++/Qt) with the Apktool used under the hood.
Features
Automatically pack, sign and optimize your APK.
Automatic conversion between PNG, BMP, JPEG, ICO, GIF, etc.
Available for Windows, macOS and Linux.

If you want change android application icon programatically then you can set it into AndroidManifest.xml file, in the application tag by setting the android:icon property. But if you want to change the icon of third party applications then you cant.

Please have a look at this one for designing icons for high, medium and low density phones:

Can't find eReader_android_1.0.39.apk file to install to emulator

Looking to replace a ZIRE31 Palm device I need a PalmReader equivalent for Android. Not having a new device yet (although thinking about the Archos43 model) I am running developer.android.com's SDK which has an emulator in it. Using the emulator I would like to try out ereader.com's application called "eReader_android_1.0.39.apk" from their site. But the download link they supply is actually a ZIP file with lots of little files. I need the simpler APK file to install with the 'adb' command. Does anyone know where I can find it?
I bought a SmartQ V5-II ($130 + $30 shipping from ALLPMP) in early December. It has Linux and Android OS's on it. I have concentrated my development on the Linux OS and have no need to try out the eReader_android_1.0.39.apk application anymore. Under Linux I found the V5-II has the FBReader application which supports the reading of e-books in the EPUB format as well as many others. I have learned enough about EPUB format to convert the text file I wish to read on my V5-II into EPUB. Problem solved!
