I can use apktool to decode apk then build again for my normal android project.
But when I tried same thing with the project that depends on the library project (appcompat), it failed with following errors.
Do I need to build with library project and if so, how can I specify that?
$ apktool build apkdecode repack.apk

It's a problem of apktool v1 (1.5.3).
There are several ways to solve it.
1. Edit styles.xml.
Add the empty 'parent' attribute to the tags on the error lines. For example:
Before
59: <style name="Widget.AppCompat.Base.ActionBar">
After
59: <style name="Widget.AppCompat.Base.ActionBar" parent="">
Then build the project. In this way you need to edit xml every time you decode apk.
2. Edit apktool sources and rebuild it.
You have to edit method 'serializeToResValuesXml' in the file 'android-apktool/brut.apktool/apktool-lib/src/main/java/brut/androlib/res/data/value/ResStyleValue.java':
Before
if (!mParent.isNull()) {
serializer.attribute(null, "parent", mParent.encodeAsResXmlAttr());
}
After
if (!mParent.isNull()) {
serializer.attribute(null, "parent", mParent.encodeAsResXmlAttr());
} else if (res.getResSpec().getName().indexOf('.') != -1) {
serializer.attribute(null, "parent", "");
}
3. Just use apktool v2 :)

This question already has answers here:
Can the Android drawable directory contain subdirectories?
(22 answers)
Closed 8 years ago.
Is it possible to create subfolder structures inside main res folders, especially in drawable folder using Gradle?
I have attempted this so far
sourceSets {
main {
res.srcDirs = [
"/src/main/res/drawable-xhdpi/actionbar_items",
"/src/main/res/drawable-xhdpi/intro",
"/src/main/res/drawable-xhdpi/loading_screen",
"/src/main/res/drawable-xhdpi",
"/src/main/res",
]
}
}
When I rebuild the project however I get this Gradle build error message something like this:
Error:(39, 23) No resource found that matches the given name (at 'icon' with value '#drawable/app_icon').
Error:(40, 24) No resource found that matches the given name (at 'label' with value '#string/app_name').

This means to me that the gradle sees only the res folders specified by me in app.gradle file ? Therefore I added the rest of it to the app.gradle and same error occurs...
Can anyone help please ....
No, Android expects all the files to be in a single directory, and does not allow subfolders to be used.
Most apps use a naming convention in place of subfolders, so in your example you might end up with a list of files:
intro_welcome.png
intro_background.png
loading_splashscreen.png
actionbar_delete.png
Compiling my project with android-maven-plugin gave me the following png error. Eclipse with android-m2e compiles and deploys without a problem onto my tablet. Is this an issue with the aapt command and libpng?

Open the png file in MS Paint and re save it as png file. It will convert the png to 32-bit format. Since Android supports both 24-bit and 32-bit png's , it makes me think there is something with Adobe Photoshop generated png's which Android does not like.

I have saved the images (in png format) in resources, but it is giving me an error stating that it's not png file. Can anyone help me out?
One Easy but time consuming solution...
Try opening your png in mspaint and do save As. this issue will resolve..
i dont know why we need to do this.. but somehow its working for me...
Check this link for reference
Android does support 24-bit and 32-bit,
but it has some problem with ADOBE PHOTOSHOP's PNG files.
So the solution is to open in MS Paint and save again as Kalpesh Patel said.
Hope this may help you
This is because of any jpg file is mistakenly converted to a png file. If you have added any images in drawable folder (asset folder) then make sure that all images extension should be png means do not change extension jpg to png. If you want to convert jpg to png then use online tool or editor to convert.
The issue is if image is not converted properly to PNG then when you run then it will give this error.
Solution: 1st do you added any images recently in a drawable folder? if yes then check all images extension should proper (i mean do not forcefully add png extension).
or
2nd if you not sure which image extension is not proper then you should have to edit all png images in the editor or online tool and save again into png file by this issue will get solved for sure.
I have spend 3 hours on this to figure out and i come up with this solution. It was my mistake i have edited jpg image to png but it is not properly converted to png so thats why it was giving me error. After i pick that image and properly converted to png file then it work for me!
