Sign APK: How to Sign Applications In Android

So You have a Payload or an Edited apk with Termux-APkTool and you want to Sign It so that you can install it on any Andoird phone❓ Perfect. Because in This post I am gonna show you how you can Sign any Apk In termux using Apk Editor.


What is Signed Apk?

When we make payload or we Edit Applications using Apk tool then We get an UnSigned Apk file. And When we try to install this Apk it, we get Apk not installed Error in Android Or sometimes we see warnings while installing The apk and those Warnings gonna scare the Victim and the person will not install it.  To Solve these Errors and to make your Apk installable you need to sign it.


Signing and application is a process of digitally Certifying your Application using a Private key. This Certification then allows the Android system to Identify the author of the application and establishes good connections. And since it is allowed that we can self-sign the applications, In this post i am gonna show you how you can easily do it on an Android phone. 



How to Sign Applications In Android :


Since the apksigner package of the Termux is not working, I tried to find tools to sign my Moded apk (that i made using apktool) But Not a single tool is working so I Don't wanna Give you guys those commands thinking maybe they will work for you. So in This, we will use APk Editor application to sign the moded app.


Step 1: 

First of all, you need to move your Unsigned apk to your Internal storage, For that, you need to first allow storage permissions to the Termux app. For that you need to type the below command in termux. If you already have storage permissions then you can skip this step.
termux-setup-storage

Now it will show you a Popup box just press on allow and now when you will type ls in termux you can see your storge folder.  



Step 2: 

Now go to the Directory where you the unsigned apk is. and Copy it to the Internal Storege of your Phone. For copying the file we will use cp command below you can see the command. In the green part of the command, you have to specify your apk file.
