Is the Android source available for tweaking ? #147

It's been discussed previously. The source is not available like this project. You can decompile it it with tools like jadx-gui. The problem is that it is heavily obfuscated. All the code ends up to a.a.a.a difficult to determine what does what. You would need to go through all functions and variables and rename them. I don't know if the code would compile so you would probably need to edit the dex directly instead. Don't know how hard it would be. I don't know Android programming enough to know how probable it would be. I guess doing some small changes would probably be doable with some work, but not big change and it would not be a great experience to code. I would personally like it so Compact Mode is the default, changing every list is very tedious and there seems to be a limit. It would probably be easy to find and change a menu default value from false to true. Making it compatible is probably the easiest, some one did mention somewhere in these discussions that he had changed it. It would be pretty much updating the manifest to target a newer API version and maybe change some permissions? Then resign the APK. There would probably be older code to change that would not work when targeting a newer API. |

As per the title - is the Android source available for tweaking ? Or can it be disassembled from the apk ?
I'd really like a few changes - the first and possibly easiest being a "Read Comics" section added.
I'm not an Android programmer myself but if the source was available I'd give it a go at learning how to program Android apps just to get that addition. However I fear getting it working with Android 12+ might be the first challenge maybe.
