Thread: REVERSE ENGINEER AN APK TO UNDERSTAND ITS FUNCTION

Hey guys I want to learn Java to start developing android apps. Specifically MMS.apk apps.

I have decompiled the APK already.
But one question would be, since I decompiled it am I able to see all the source or no?

Please let me know if you would like me to attach the apk.

Thank you for the help!

My suggestion: don't try to learn by decompiling an application as it will be just about impossible to read and a very bad example to emulate. Better to go through tutorials and books and to write code like a demon.

Hmm I see. So how would I know what was done to create the APK?

Its a custom MMS.apk

Thanks!
