Debugging reversed Android Application without emulator for Dynamic Analysis

144 views Asked by At

Suppose I download an android real-world app from Google Play and planned to do a dynamic analysis in the android application that received. thus, I first did the reverse engineering with apktool on the received android applications, and then by adding build.xml file and a few other files, executed the sudo ant clean debug command. This can be done on several projects with ant structures that have been built by my own. But Unfortunately, it does not happen for real-world applications and gives the following error which is related to the resources.

Is there a way to do debugging without the execution of programs on the real-world emulator or device?
