I am a complete newbie at attempting to edit an APK, please excuse my lack of knowledge. I have several old APKs. I am trying to install it using an adb command at a command prompt with my Samsung S24 connected to my computer via cable (with Developer Mode Enabled and debugging turned on).
When I do this I get this error: “Install failed no matching ABIS: Failed to extract native libraries, res=113”. I’ve tried to research this error and I think it is happening because the app isn’t written for 64 bit architecture. I had thought I needed to add info to the Lib files to support 64 bit (by adding a arm64-v8a folder – the Lib folder has an “armeabi” folder). So I don’t know if I’m assessing the situation correctly or not. Also, I have no clue how to go about all of this. I have downloaded Android Editor Studio (I can see how to open the file and see the contents) as well as Android Studio. In Android Studio I only know how to open the apk for debugging (not for editing). Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
