Re: APK Organize 1.4.0 (Rename, Compare, Search, Batch Install & Uninstall)

I want it for renaming only. Download lots of apps and it gets messy! Any way to do this? Other than copying back to PC and renaming?

For now the only way is copyng back to pc and renaming.
But, If other users want this too, Maybe i add a feature to do this automatically!
move from phone to PC, rename and then move back to phone.
although it takes more time, But if you want i can do it.
What do you think ?

I would love that! Could you please do it? Many people will be interested since most new phones come with MTP nowadays.

I really like your app, because it makes managing my apps very fast and efficient. Thanks for that very much!
There is in fact a minor issue with wireless ADB connection. When setting the IP to connect to, it adds the port number doubled, which leads to a connection error.
It should also be possible to edit the port number as some people use a different port than 5555...

Also, since I am using this app, there is a typo in the startup screen, where you wrote "Copmare APK files" instead of "Compare APK files". I would really appreciate, if you fixed that as it hurts my eyes, everytime i start it. :eek:

For now, great app and keep up the good work!

OH MY GOD!

Thanks for that
and for ADB wireless i'll fix it in next version.
but you can edit port, You can't ?


Edit : Pm me your email for test, I've fixed both.

Could you add a feature that monitors a particular folder on the PC and then automatically renames any apk placed within that folder as per our defined rules? It would be great if you could do so! Thanks!

Just a quick comment. You are missing an M on compare in one of the screenshots. Also you may want to remove your screenshot with Luckypatcher? Not necessary but don't want to be promoting warez on this forum. Otherwise great work ;) keep it up.

Q: did you build this in Visual studio? Does it require .NET framework and if so what version?

    APK Organize

    FEATURED ON XDA PORTAL

    Main.JPG



    What this software does ?

    This software has made from 5 parts.
    1. Rename APK
    2. Compare APK
    3. Find APK from txt
    4. APK Batch Installer | Uninstaller
    5. Backup | Restore Data

    Rename :
    1. Add apk files to the list by doing one of the following:
    • Double-click apk files in Explorer while the Rename-tab is active
    • Drag & Drop from Explorer
    • Add single files via “Add APK”
    • Add whole directories via “Choose Folder” (Folder history via “▼”)
    • Add files from your Phone via “From Phone” (ADB connection needed)

    Note: You can sort the list individually by clicking the column headers.

    2. Setting the renaming pattern
    Set the desired pattern via the Dropdown-menu below the list.
    If you want, you can set an individual pattern by using the provided tags.

    Note: <Manual|Label> will use the names provided in the manual rename-list.
    For apps that are not the list, the standard label is used…


    3. Renaming:
    • Select the files you want to be renamed by marking them in the list
    • Press “Preview” to see what the files will be named or press “Rename” straight away.
    • If you want to send these files to the Compare-tab, right-click on the list and press “Compare”

    Rename.JPG

    Monitor :
    You can set up a folder for APK Organize to monitor. It will automatically rename all apk files you put in there.
    Set up your desired directory and the renaming pattern, then click “Enable” to start the monitoring.
    You can now close APK Organize. It will continue to run in system tray.
    Check “Auto Start” to start monitoring on windows startup.

    You can check what APK Organize is doing by clicking “Logs”

    Note: Existing files will not be renamed. Monitoring only works for newly added files…
    Newly added apps that already exist will automatically be overwritten.
    Check “Ask for overwrite”, if you don’t want that.


    Monitor.jpg

    Manual Rename :
    Sometimes two or more applications have the same label name but are in fact different apps (f.e. Angry Birds).
    If you want APK organize to rename any apps differently, you can associate a package name with an individual name.

    1. Add apps to this list by doing one of the following:
    • Drag & Drop from Explorer
    • Add single files via “APK” → “Add”
    • Add whole directories via “APK” → “Add from folder”
    2. Double-click or press F2 one the corresponding cell in the right column and enter the desired name
    3. Save the list anywhere you want via “File” → “Save”.
    4. Close the window, go to “Manual Rename” → “Load list” and select the list you have created.
    5. Set the renaming pattern to "<Manual|Label> v<Version>" or "<Manual|Label>".
    6. Press “Rename”.
    APK Organize will now rename the files accordingly. For apps that are not specified in your list, it will use the regular label.

    ManualRename.JPG

    Compare :
    1. Choose if you want to compare by file name or by Label name and version from “Search with”
    2. Choose the directory to compare to on the top panel. (F.e. your apk archive)
    3. Add the new apk files to the list:
    • Double-click apk files in Explorer while the Compare-tab is active
    • Drag & Drop from Explorer
    • Add single files via “Add APK”
    • Add whole directories via “Add Folder” (Folder history via “▼”)
    4. Press “Scan”. APK Organize will now automatically mark every finding in the bottom list.
    5. You can now do the following with the results (or your own markings):
    Delete: Deletes all old files… You will then be asked, what to do with the new files.
    Copy: Copies the new files to the specified directory
    Move: Moves the new files to the specified directory

    Note: You can do the above steps for files without results too by right-clicking them.
    You can also load an exception list. Files that are on this list will be moved to an exception
    folder on the target directory to be organized manually…


    Compare.JPG

    Search :
    This tab enables you to do operations with a specified list of apps, f.e. if you have to install a bunch of apps after a wipe. If you have to do this very often and the apps are always the same, APK Organize can automate this process for you:

    1. Create the list of apps you want to do operations with or select a list via “Select list”, if you have already done one of the steps below.
    The list MUST only contain the app’s label names without versionnumber, divided by a linebreak. You can do this by the following:
    • Manually add the apps with “Add”, Drag & Drop from Explorer or double-click from Explorer and save it via “Save List” for further use.
    • Export a list with ROM Toolbox or any app that is capable of exporting list in the demanded pattern and load it into APK Organize. Make the necessary changes and save the list.
    2. Choose the directory where your apk files are stored for the left list.
    3. Press “Scan”. APK Organize will now list every finding in the bottom list.
    4. Do the operations of your desire via the provided buttons on the bottom.

    Search.JPG

    Install :
    Installing apk files:
    1. Add apk files to the list by doing one of the following:

    • Double-click apk files in Explorer while the Rename-tab is active
    • Drag & Drop from Explorer
    • Add single files via “Add APK”
    • Add whole directories via “Choose Folder” (Folder history via “▼”)
    • Add files from your Phone via “From Phone” (ADB connection needed)
    2. Press “Install”. APK Organize will now try to install the apps over ADB. See the log, if there are any errors.

    Note: You can view details like label, package name and permissions via right-click → Details
    “Unknown sources” has to be enabled on your phone to install apk files…
    You can sort the lists individually by clicking the column headers.


    Uninstalling APK files:
    1. Go to “Mode → Uninstaller” and choose, if you want to view the installed apps by label or package name.
    2. Select the Apps you want to uninstall by marking them and press “Uninstall”
    3. APK Organize will now try to uninstall the apps over ADB.
    See the log, if there are any errors.

    Install.JPG

    Backup : (Root Needed!)
    1. Set the directory you want to store your backups in via “Backup Directory”.
    2. Go to “Packages” and choose, if you want to view the installed apps by label or package name, or click “From Directory” to display the backups from your chosen directory.
    3. Check “App” and/or “Data” for the apps you want to backup or restore and press “Backup” / ”Restore”.
    4.APK Organize will now try to complete the task.
    See the log, if there are any errors.

    Notes: If most of the backups/restores fail for you it may be that your ADB daemon is running in secure mode. This can happen on stock kernels, but also on other setups. In that case, try running ADB ROOT (and maybe set it to Auto mode) in APK Organize
    For Restores “Unknown sources” has to be enabled on your phone…
    You can sort the lists or check/uncheck something for all apps by clicking the column headers.
    If you have checked App and Data for an App and it gives an error, try checking “Skip failure for App or Data while backing up both”. It is not necessarily an error, because there just might be no data to back up…
