The same to my situation. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.felink.clean2&hl=en
It's useless resources lead to the error??

TJYSunset · 2016-11-16T17:22:34Z

Same issue here, trying to decode & rebuild this apk.
I'm pretty sure it's not framework issue because the styles' names are obviously built-in resources.

iBotPeaches · 2016-11-17T13:46:07Z

This is interesting. The original application obviously had some build procedure which obfuscated resource names, looks like AndroResGuard. Every resource is alphabetical like a, b, a1, a2, etc.

So take an offending line

            <LinearLayout android:orientation="vertical" android:id="@id/qw" android:layout_marginTop="0.0dip" style="@style/DialogMessageStyle">

Now the id attribute correctly is associated with the rename resource, but the style attribute is not. It points to a source that doesn't exist.

So we can leverage aapt to dump the above file

aapt d xmltree r/f/gd.xml

        E: TextView (line=6)
          A: android:id(0x010100d0)=@0x7f0c0337
          A: android:text(0x0101014f)=@0x7f0700a6
          A: android:singleLine(0x0101015d)=(type 0x12)0xffffffff
          A: style=@0x7f0a0019 (Raw: "@style/DialogTitleStyle")

So we can see the attribute style has the ID of 0x7f0a0019 but human readable name of DialogTitleStyle

That human readable name is just copied onward, but guess what. It doesn't exist. If we follow the resource ID once again with aapt we get.

➜  Bug1361 aapt d resources SHAREit_3.6.68_ww.apk | grep '7f0a0019'
      spec resource 0x7f0a0019 com.lenovo.anyshare.gps:style/z: flags=0x40000400

        resource 0x7f0a0019 com.lenovo.anyshare.gps:style/z: <bag> (PUBLIC)

The correct resource was style/z

        <item name="android:layout_marginRight">@dimen/ku</item>
    </style>

Apktool should be updated to follow resourceIds instead of human readable names in term of parent style attributes.

when dude

Bonjur · 2016-11-18T15:10:25Z

@iBotPeaches fix it please

- #1361

iBotPeaches · 2016-12-05T14:07:53Z

So I spent a lot of time trying to understand this and just tabulating my research. Apktool currently decodes this to

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
            ...
            <TextView android:id="@id/vl" android:text="@string/ds" android:singleLine="true" style="@style/DialogTitleStyle" />
            <TextView android:id="@id/vm" android:text="@string/na" style="@style/DialogMessageStyle" />
            ...
        </LinearLayout>
    </ScrollView>
</FrameLayout>

So the style attribute has no namespace, as expected because we are referencing an internal style, not an Android one. So back to the offending line.

 A: style=@0x7f0a0019 (Raw: "@style/DialogTitleStyle")

We know the key is value, with the value - @0x7f0a0019 and literal value of - "@style/DialogTitleStyle". However, we know this is wrong as proven here.

➜  Bug1361 aapt d resources SHAREit_3.6.68_ww.apk| grep '0x7f0a0019'
      spec resource 0x7f0a0019 com.lenovo.anyshare.gps:style/z: flags=0x40000400

So our decoder is really messing up. So lets check for this old resource (DialogTitleStyle).

SHAREit_3.6.68_ww/smali/com/lenovo/anyshare/gps/R$style.smali:.field public static final DialogTitleStyle:I = 0x7f0a0019

So wow. The application has the old attribute in the smali R class. Lets check the public.xml file that we create.

SHAREit_3.6.68_ww/res/values/public.xml:    <public type="style" name="z" id="0x7f0a0019" />

Ugh same resourceId. Two different resource names. What is correct? What shouldn't be there?

No idea yet.

fixmania · 2016-12-15T01:14:19Z

I have a trouble with the same thing. Haven't it fixed yet?

arudeiandeita · 2017-02-20T17:45:57Z

@iBotPeaches Dear Owner/Developer, thanks for advise the aapt method... I got it all and successfully completed recovered all strings... Of course it must be one by one, and need some critical accuration...

Tools :

aapt (from android-sdk-build-tools)
Notepad++ (for searching strings and values, replacing mass xml) : https://notepad-plus-plus.org/download/v7.3.2.html

You can download the build tools from here :
http://dl.google.com/android/repository/build-tools_rXX-windows.zip
Note : Replace XX with SDK Number... (Ex. r25 for Android 7.1)

zinis · 2017-10-13T09:45:08Z

Is it fixed ???

sin5678 · 2018-01-17T11:50:22Z

seams not fix yet

Gintasz · 2018-08-01T15:05:34Z

any solution?

Ibuprophen · 2018-08-01T17:36:40Z

@Gintasz, If you had checked out the following reference to this issue...

#1820

... @iBotPeaches posted something there 12 days ago because the underlying issue there is similar/same as this issue in regards to the namespace (possibly connected to the aapt as well).

What this tells me is very positive because it reflects that iBotPeaches hasn't forgotten about the issue at hand.

Just be patient... 👍

ljysdfz · 2018-11-26T15:59:22Z

@iBotPeaches

I really appreciate all the tough work you've done, only by which we could be able to gain more insights about this issue and so many other things as to Android reverse engineering.

I've recently encountered some similar troubles in the rebuilding phase.

No resource identifier found for attribute "XXX" in package "com.XXX.XXX"

No resource found that matches the given name (at "XXX" with value "XXX")

As you can see, these problems are caused by custom attribute in a private namespace of a resource file.

I've found that xml attribute names or values in a private namespace will be incorrectly refered to something that is exactly a system attribute resource as guys have mentioned in historical comments.

These errors seem to be widespread as occurring in a large number of issues.

I've got digging into the source code of apktool and have tried to tweak two files relating to the xml parsing phase.

    /////////////////////////////////////////////////

    public String getAttributeName(int index) {
        int offset = getAttributeOffset(index);
        int nameIndex = m_attributes[offset + ATTRIBUTE_IX_NAME];
        if (nameIndex == -1) return "";
        String name = m_strings.getString(nameIndex);
        String namespace = getAttributeNamespace(index);
        
		// If attribute name is lacking or a private namespace emerges, 
		// retrieve the exact attribute name by its id.
        if (name == null || name.length() == 0) {
			try {
				name = mAttrDecoder
				.decodeManifestAttr(getAttributeNameResource(index));
				if (name == null) name = "";
			} catch (AndrolibException e) {name = "";}
        } else if (! namespace.equals(android_ns)) {
        	try {
				String obfuscatedName = mAttrDecoder
				.decodeManifestAttr(getAttributeNameResource(index));
				if (! (obfuscatedName == null || obfuscatedName.equals(name))) {
					name = obfuscatedName;
				}
			} catch (AndrolibException e) {}
        }
        return name;

        int valueRaw = m_attributes[offset + ATTRIBUTE_IX_VALUE_STRING];        
        
        if (mAttrDecoder != null) {
            try {
                String value = valueRaw == -1 ? null : ResXmlEncoders
                		.escapeXmlChars(m_strings.getString(valueRaw));
                String obfuscatedValue = mAttrDecoder
                		.decodeManifestAttr(valueId);
                if (! (value == null || obfuscatedValue == null)) {
                	int slashPos = value.lastIndexOf("/");
                	
                    if (slashPos != -1) {
                    	// Handle a value with a format of "@yyy/xxx"
                    	String dir = value.substring(0, slashPos);
                        value = dir + "/"+ obfuscatedValue;
                    } else if (! value.equals(obfuscatedValue)) {
                    	value = obfuscatedValue;
                    }
                }

                        valueId,
                        value,
                        getAttributeNameResource(index));
            } catch (AndrolibException ex) {
                setFirstError(ex);
                LOGGER.log(Level.WARNING, String.format(

    }

    public String decodeManifestAttr(int attrResId)
            throws AndrolibException {
        if (attrResId != 0) {
            int attrId = attrResId;

            // See also: brut.androlib.res.data.ResTable.getResSpec
            if (attrId >> 24 == 0) {
                ResPackage pkg =  getCurrentPackage();
                int packageId = pkg.getId();
                int pkgId = (packageId == 0 ? 2 : packageId);
                attrId = (0xFF000000 & (pkgId << 24)) | attrId;
            }

            // Retrieve the ResSpec in a package by its id
            ResID resId = new ResID(attrId);
            ResPackage pkg = getCurrentPackage();
            if (pkg.hasResSpec(resId)) {
                ResResSpec resResSpec = pkg.getResSpec(resId);
                if (resResSpec != null) {return resResSpec.getName();}
            }
        }

        return null;
    }

The basic ideas:

Get the attribute id in m_attributes by offset.
Invoke brut.androlib.res.decoder.ResAttrDecoder.decodeManifestAttr method in order to inquire the exact attribute value by id.
Replace the invalid one in a sensible condition.

Then I utilized the modified code to re-decode the apk.

At last, it worked and rebuilt the resource folder successfully.

The originally falsely-referenced attribute had been corrected into an entity which is an obfuscated name.

It's too sad to file a pull request as I've got some network troubles in cloning no matter my forked branch or even the master branch.

Forgive me that I can't publish the apk I cracked here since it's a business production which is not owned by myself.

But if @iBotPeaches you need it, tell me and I'd be pleased to mail it to you.

The whole of experience of analysis and tweaking process has been posted in my blog.

Please let me know if you guys come up with any ideas or suggests.

drakos · 2019-01-10T23:06:59Z

@ljysdfz any chance you could share your solution so I can try rebuilding my APK? Thanks!

ljysdfz · 2019-02-01T08:01:00Z

@drakos

Sure of course.
Sorry to reply so late 'cause I've been busy with a tricky task.
Glad to help and I've packed the .jar file that I'd compiled out into an attached archive.
I've been using it for quite a while, and it really keeps in good order.
Hope it works for you or any other guys, too.

Hello @ljysdfz thanks for the patch.

Hi @iBotPeaches the patch is still on version 2.3.4. Is it possible to check and merge the changes into 2.4.0 version or maybe a new release with other fixes?

Thanks

iBotPeaches · 2020-11-29T12:46:16Z

Sorry for delay. Lots of changes for attribute/namespace decoding in v2.5.0.

PRs for code changes in future won't be missed as easily :)

Apk is not findable anymore.

This item was deleted

So closing as there is nothing really I can do here, trying to clean backlog.

I met this problem too, just using @ljysdfz 's method solve my problem!

Here is my build of apktool, just do what @ljysdfz reply.
apktool-2.5.0-dirty.zip

The target apk link is here. I just tried decode and compile back.

MrIkso · 2020-12-22T22:37:32Z

@iBotPeaches yes, fix by @ljysdfz wok fine on apk with confused resources.
