I am trying to use apktool/aapt/aapt2 to rebuild an APK but I encountered an error when using the tools. The message states "error: not well-formed (invalid token)". This is because of the use of unicode characters in the various xml files for the class names etc.
Is there anyway I can convert those unicode names to an ASCII equivalent? I have tried to escape the characters in the XML files using
- &#x....
- &#.... (decimal equivalent of &#x)
- \u....
- \xxxx
However, none of the above escaping works. Any advice is greatly appreciated.
