Yeah after doing a quick Google search it seems like the compiling issue is one everyone is having (I can't post the link to the thread here because it's technically a warez forum). I tried compiling with different apk tool versions and no dice. I wonder if they did something to prevent editing of the apk to solve the unlimited skips/no ads apks :p

EDIT: I THINK I might have figured out what the problem is. Stay tuned.

EDIT 2: SUCCESS! Proof:



Explanation: The issue resides in the "blue_bar_close_pressed.png" and "blue_bar_close_normal.png" files found in the drawable folders as evidenced by the error log:



Somehow the files get messed with upon decompiling and not many programs will recognize it as a PNG (not even Photoshop did ಠ_ಠ) the free Paint.NET was the only one I could get it to open with. Anyway simply open the image shown above in my error log with Paint.NET and resave them. Do that for all the images in all the folders (drawable, drawable-ldpi, drawable-mdpi, drawable-hdpi and drawable-xhdpi) and then it will compile with no issues :)

I don't know how to exactly re-code it to skip ads but I hope you can deliver now ;) If you still can't get it to work, PM me the decompiled apk (just zip it up or something) with the changes and I'll compile it and PM it back to you.
Send me your fixed one, and I'll finish it. Lol. Nvm, almost done.

Oh youu... :p

Here is the decompiled, fixed apk zipped up. Just unzip and you'll get the com.panodra.android folder and treat that like a regular decompiled apk :)

Yes but now that I think about it I might have tried to decompile the original APK :p it's 7.30 am and I have been up all night haha. Either way now that we know what causes it, we know how to overcome it.

EDIT: Yeah I just recompiled the wrong APK. Just did a quick test, all is well. No need to re-do the fix more than once:
