I encountered a problem while trying to patch the stock Android music app (com.android.music) with QuestAudioPatcher. Below are the details:
Unmodified APK: Works fine, but music stops when the app is closed.
Patching Process: After patching, the APK fails to install, with the package installer indicating a parsing error.
ADB Error Message: Performing Streamed Install adb: failed to install C:\Users(myusername)\Downloads\com.android.music_aee-signed.apk: Failure [INSTALL_PARSE_FAILED_UNEXPECTED_EXCEPTION: Failed parse during installPackageLI: Failed to read manifest from /data/app/vmdl1849657943.tmp/base.apk: length=109; index=-1]Analysis: Decompiled the patched APK using APKTool. The manifest appeared normal, suggesting the patcher worked correctly.
Workaround: Recompiling the patched APK with APKTool resulted in a successful installation.
I've attached the modified AndroidManifest.xml for reference: AndroidManifest.txt
I appreciate the effort put into developing this patcher, as it greatly aids users without technical expertise or PC access. I hope this information helps in resolving the issue for others facing similar problems. Please let me know if further information is needed.
