Big thanks go to these people, without their hard work none of this would be possible:
@Brut.all, @iBotPeaches, @scrosler and @JesusFreke.
I actually have a lot more people to thank than that.
So many, in fact, that it now crashes the website if I try to list them all!
So thank you so much to everybody who's helped over the years. You're all amazing people!

TMA is a quick, powerful and easy-to-use tool that uses a piece of java called "apktool" to decompile and recompile Android app's.
Along with that, Tickle My Android offers the ability to:
- decompile and recompile multiple files in a batch,
- sign APK and JAR files
- zipalign APK files,
- create flashable ZIP files,
- let you choose between multiple versions of Apktool
- lets you theme up to eight different roms or devices at the same time,
- use the tool in different languages
- control the tool by keyboard or MOUSE!

To use Tickle My Android, you will need:
- - a rooted Android phone or tablet with USB Debugging enabled and a custom recovery installed,
- - any version of Android on that device,
- - a Windows PC (XP or above) with the phone or tablet's drivers installed,
- - Java Runtime Environment 8.0 or above installed to your PATH (http://www.java.com/en/download/help/path.xml),
- - a USB cable to connect your device to the PC,
- - patience and a little common sense

Download the latest version from the link at the top of this post and run it. (Please don't look in the 'Downloads' tab - it's not working right now.) This is a self-extracting archive which, once it's extracted everything, will put on your PC a new folder called "Tickle My Android". This is where the tool runs from.

The "_WorkArea1", "_WorkArea2", "_WorkArea3", "_WorkArea4", "_WorkArea5", "_WorkArea6", "_WorkArea7" and "_WorkArea8" folders we'll talk about later.
The "tool_files" folder contains various files Tickle My Android needs to run. Don't touch these!
The "user_files" folder holds different versions of Apktool, as well as the different language files.
And the "Tickle My Android" exe file starts the tool. Double click on that and away we go!
How To De/recompile An App
If you want to know about decompiling and recompiling APK and JAR files, take a look at the second post in this thread. There's a lot to talk about!
How To Add An Application To A Flashable ZIP
Head to the third post in this thread to find out how to add APK and JAR files to a flashable ZIP!
What Happens If It Goes Wrong?
Tickle My Android has been designed to be easy to use but the very nature of Android means that things might not always go smoothly.
If you're having problems, look at the 4th post in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=25621684&postcount=4 This is the FAQ post which should hopefully be able to help you out.
If you're still having trouble, please feel free to post in here. Include your "history.txt" and I'll try to get to back to you as soon as I can!
How To Say "Thanks"..
TMA is free and always will be. You can use it as much as you like, you don't owe me anything.
But, if you want to give something back, please consider placing one of the banners below somewhere in your signature.
Your support lets me know I'm doing something useful and it keeps this tool alive!! Spread the word!
