[PC] PPCGeeks Android APK & Zip Signer
 

Alright so, I'm working on some android development projects and this tool came as like a POC/Test application. It turned at well tho, so I decided to package it and share with other android developers that may want. The application itself is very simple and only signs APKs and Zip files for android devices. I would like to also give a big thanks to user Stericson @ XDA for the testsign.jar file used in signing APKs and Zips. From my research he is the one who created/shared this file with everyone. Hope this helps some folks with the signing process.

Prerequisite:
1. Download and install the Java Runtime if you do not already have installed.
2. Download and install .NET Framework 2.0 if you do not already have this installed or higher version.
3. Download and install the latest PPCGeeks Android Signer application attached to this post.

Once we have finished all the above, its really simple to get started!

Instructions:
1. Run the AndroidSigner application by clicking the shortcut installed on the desktop. This will bring up the application and look like the screenshot below.

2. Drag and drop any android APK or Zip file over onto the box, then click sign. It will produce a file with "-signed" added onto the end in the folder that the original file is located as pictured below.

Works great. Thanks man.

Thank you for the program. However, when I drop the apk in the program and hit sign, i get an error that says it cant find the specified file. Where do I need to have the file located in order for the program to find it?

Re: [PC] PPCGeeks Android APK & Zip Signer
 

It should be able to sign it no matter where its located. That shouldn't make a difference, can you take a screenshot of the error and post here?

Thank you. Here's my screen. Just seems to be a generic error.

I'm gonna have to say its because of the apk your trying to sign, I can't be sure of this but I've used it to sign modified htc keyboard apk before. Any way you can attach it for me? Also not sure if you know but if your modifying that file, you can open with 7zip and drag replacement files over into it, and then use without having to sign it. Hope this helps. :thumbleft:
