Option proposedheregood, but I think newbies from a large text have a fear of translation / editing, logically a lot = difficult. Predalayu new version of this action.

One request, do not write me a personal with questions! Read the cap a couple of times, then ask a question in the subject.

We will need:JavaandApk manager
Java download from the developer’s site, i.e.here or more recent. Apk manager, you can, and even need, download from here.
ApkManagerRUS.rar(3.77 MB)
(Mirror)
A new version:APKmanager 5.7
APKTool v1.5.2New way to change applications (translation) (Post # 22030406)
Apktool for mobile devices.


Do you use Linux-based OS? Youhere!

The main feature of this version is that it is translated into Russian and now it has become even easier to use. But I still show you how to Russify or change the desired application.

Instruction

0)Make sure everything is installed. All events will take place in the folder with the unzipped Apk Manager!
1)We copy the necessary application in a folder/ place-apk-here-for-modding
2)RunScript.batand we see the following picture:

Enter the number of the desired application and press Enter
3)There will be a bunch of options for action, do not get scared, choose the item9(Decompilation)

We wait..
4)Go to the folder/ projectsand find the folder with the desired application.
Go to the folderprojects \ your application.apk \ res \ valuesand look for a file therestrings.xml
Create a folderprojects \ your application.apk \ res \ values-ruand copy there ourstrings.xml
I recommend Notepad ++ for editing, and in no case any “editors” like aiLocalizer, they add a lot of garbage to the source file and because of this it and therefore the program “gets fat”
Note: sometimes the translation may not only be in the filestrings.xmlbut also inarrays.xml, eg. Well, in particularly neglected cases (laucnher pro), a part of localization may be located in the smali code, we will not talk about it now.
5)After editing in the same Apk Manager, we select item 11. And here we see the following:

We are not scared, since we edited a non-system (not a system?) Application, then we write the letternand pushenter
6)Now it remains to sign the application, everything is simple. Choose 12 points.
7)If you are registered inPATHway toAdb (in more detail) then you can install the application right away by selecting item 13, or immediately from compiling to installation point 14.

Forgot to say, the finished application is located at/ place-apk-here-for-modding / signedyour_application.apk

I hope this will encourage newcomers to such a noble cause as localization!

You should not just edit the strings not in the values ​​folder, but create its copy and assign it to -ru (values-ru), and you should edit the strings file there !!! : yes2:

Thank you very much! Great program!
Faced with 2 minor difficulties, he decided them himself:
1) Krakauzyabry when starting a script are solved simply. Open Cmd ->click on the top line of the window ->Properties ->Font Lucida Console
2) In order to start working with APK, you need to select one of them (paragraph 22)

Thanks again for the prog!

1) Yes, I only when I installed Windows, immediately put the font (a year ago somewhere), therefore I did not mention it =)
2) In the original way, yes, but I did that I would immediately ask to choose the application
