How to sign a modded apk on mac with apktool


I have created a modded apk using apktool but when I try to install it , it doesn't install. When I rechecked and compared it with an older apk I found out that my apk file wasn't signed. I searched a lot but couldn't find out a method to sign apk on mac OS X. Please help


Solution

  • Got my solution- I use keytool, Jarsigner and zipalign from JDK by using following commands in terminal

    To generate keystore

    keytool -genkey -v -keystore my-keystore.keystore -alias name_alias -keyalg RSA -validity 10000
    

    To sign an apk

    jarsigner -verbose -keystore <path of my-keystore.keystore> <path of apk>  name_alias
    

    To zip align an apk

    zipalign -f -v 4 <your.apk >  <your_aligned.apk>
