I was working on a game using eclipse and cocos2d-x and through some freak accident I lost all of my data. However, the build of the app is still saved on my nexus tablet from when I would test my app. Is there any possible way for me to salvage the work I've done from what's left on my tablet?
You need to decompile the classes.Here is a tutorial :

And another tutorial with an eclipse plugin:

How to decompile an APK or DEX file on Android platform?

I've made many apps using a drag and drop program which just compiles the apk for you. I'm getting into programming my own apps so I want to know if it's possible to import one of my apk files into android studio so I can edit the source code myself.
Thanks
Im curious to know the what steps/tools need to build an android app from source code to apk inside android (i.e. inside an android powered smartphone).
Im actually curious how AIDE works. They give a whole integrated development environment as an android app. Without any root privilege, it compiles==>builds==>generates apk==>deploys/installs apk to host machine (i.e the smartphone).
Im guessing I need ANT/Gradle , keytool , jarsigner(to sign apk).
But:
What tools?
In what sequence?
How? :)
I dont know is it a good place to ask? If not, any suggestion of stackexchange network or any blog will be appriciated.
You don't need any extra tools, if you have AIDE installed...
Just wrap up your Android project code, hit the 'Build' button & it Compiles everything to a working Android App (.apk) :)
All you need is just AIDE .
IT HAS ALL REQUIRED TOOLS LIKE GRADLE, AAPT, SIGNER ETC
Just chill and start using AIDE, if you have problem with free version, try Pro. Am using Pro without any problem since 3 years
I'm using Android Studio and I'm close to just canceling the Android version of my app and just sticking with the released iOS version. I need to use an expansion APK and I cannot for the life of me get the downloader_library to import into Android Studio.
I try and run the project and it says it can't find anything from the expansion downloader. I've tried everything I can find on the forums. I've tried bringing into Eclipse and exporting out. I just can't get this to work.
I don't know if I have some kind of fundamental misunderstanding about Android and libraries and modules and things but I'm about ready to give up on this unless someone has an easy way to help me through. This is the very last step. I have the IAB working, the app works on multiple devices, the performance is good, I just can't figure out this splitting of the APK.
So my laptop has seriously crashed & i REALLY need my android working files (not backed up)
Is there any way I can get the app from my debug phone into android studio (in another laptop) & have them as working android files - pleaseee help!!
If it's your own application and you own copyrights, you can use some tools for decompiling Android apk. Quick google gave me this.
or you can have a look at Is there a way to get the source code from an APK file?
I want to deliver a finished and working Titanium App to Android customers. But I can't find any documentation about how to produce something like a jar-file that I can create to directly install it on Android devices without the Android market or the Titanium IDE at hand (I can't expect my users to install Titanium IDE first, right).
When you do a build for device in titanium studio, titanium studio creates an apk file for you.
You can find this at Titanium Workspace/Your Project/Build/Android/bin/app.apk. This is the app file you want.
This file can be e-mailed to your customers, and if the android phone is set to accept apps from 3rd party locations, they can install it through this e-mail.
