Want to learn how to start reverse engineering Android applications? Here we step through how to use the tools installed in the previous video. We'll do a shallow analysis of a piece of malware from a popular sample repository in order to show how to start reversing applications of your own.

Instant subbed, I am more of a metasploit guy bet you know what real fun is in reverse engineering

[@RahulApkEditorPro]

Please, upload more videos. Your content is very good 👌👌

[@GiveAcademy]

I agree I had to sub... I love reverse engineering and i love the effort you put into your videos! :) I really need to get back into it and put some actual design effort into my vids. well done, very inspiring!

[@MattBidewell]

Really good content you've done so far! Like the fact that you're actually talking through what you're doing rather than just doing it. Keep up the great work. :)

[@chmodxx]

Thanks! I appreciate it!

@Kristina Balaam I thought I was doing a system update but it was malware My avg found it. It says it's called Android System but won't remove it How do I get rid of it????

[@oxodao]

Nice video indeed; You probably know it but the software Jeb is quite amazing, it enables you to dissasemble apk into a IDE-like environment with variable renaming (Refactoring), Ctrl + click to go where it comes and also find usage. I especially like the refactoring tool since it let's you change the name of variables once you find out what they do

[@MikeTrieu]

How does JEB compare to GHIDRA when it comes to Android RE? It seems GHIDRA has many of the same features and is free.

changing mod is must at most of the steps.... keep in mind guys.

Awesome video and learned a lot as I'm trying to reverse engineer a stalkerware sample. If you don't know what stalkerware is please google.

[@chmodxx]

Thanks for sharing! I analyse a lot of stalkerware. So horrible 😔

Hi @Kristina, With respect to reverse engineering I need to find out the call graphs for making a malware detection tool. I am using debian as OS please help me to find out the call graphs files. It will be a great support. Thank you

[@thesaltyfrog7683]

What kind of linux do you have to learn first? im a complete noob :) ........ before going to college what should i read or learn ?

[@RamziHemadou]

try ubuntu or mint

[@satheshname8983]

My mobile and laptop is infected with malware not and to remove them i need your help i am technically not good in analysis

[@Ashley-sd5xn]

This was so interesting!!

Very good video !

[@byronmarcelovasconezvascon5990]

nice, please more information of the theme

[@martyrd0m]

why are u not making videos anymore?

[@xnorcode]

Hi, How about if you are looking for a specific information (eg. a key, a name, etc...) in the .apk that is well hidden via a combination of both obfuscation (manual + proguard) and the NDK? Like your work, will be waiting for a lot more videos! Regards, Andreas (@xnorcode)

[@andersonsilva7540]

Please, do more videos :D
