Encrypt and decrypt .apk files

Hi All,

I was wondering how to break apart .apk files in Windows to see all of it's components, edit some of the components, and put the file back together.

I have been able to open up the file to see the components using WinZip but I am unsure of how to re-"make" the .apk file again using WinZip. Is there a special option within winzip or can you just change the extension from .zip to .apk? Not sure if this matters, but the .apk files are being used within Eclipse in an emulator as of now.

Thank you!

Andy

Eclipse does all the building and signing when you write the code. Have you looked at apkbuilder?
