Features
Jbart is crossplatform tool intended to help rom developers in translating and patching Android rom files. Current version supports only roms created in CWM (recovery) format, when inside zip archive system, framework, vendor (optional) directories are located. So roms packed with brotli and ext4 (files system.new.dat, system.new.dat.br, etc.) currently not supported.
The main features of jbart tool include, but not limited to the following list:
Deodexer
In this section you’ll be able to deodex all apk and jar files in selected rom. It supports system, vendor, framework directories
ROM file
This section provides ability to unpack/pack, decompile, compile, translate, patch and sign Android rom
Translation parser
Parse your current translation and compare it to the selected language resources (xml) to get the difference - untranslated resources, obsolete translation, etc.
OTA creator
You can create incremental update packages based on two roms by comparing the difference in files in both of them and create a flashable zip
Single file
In this section you can decompile, compile, translate, patch and sign single apk, jar, or even zip files
HEX patcher
Inject translation and resources directly into resources.arsc file, no need to decompile apk files
