Help/Support Recompiled Modified APK, Asks Me To Download From Google Play?

UnboundGodz · May 2, 2017

Alright so, im attempting to modify the game Crash of Cars. And i recompiled/signed the apk so it would properly build. I copied it over to my LG G4 and installed it. Ran the game, and it popped up that message, Title: Crash of Cars, Body: Please download the game from Google Play.

My question is, what would i do to get around this message without needing to redownload it? Phones rooted, has Unknown Sources checked.

And the modification is just a test, im looking at changing the price for cars from the "Prize Machine" which typically are a value of 100 to 0 or Free. Since this game is Offline/Online this could potentially work, but this could be the issue to?

Thanks for your time.

Probably google play DRM.

not sure if they encoded their game totally but you can try thi

search in all smali files (using 'find in files') for: public boolean allowAccess ()

then Do this:

const v0, 0x1

return v0

Big chance it can be DRM 101 too.

this is harder to bypass. And can't tell this in steps lol.

download Lucky patcher & see if it says that there is a google play verification.

You can try the program 'AntiLVL too, this bypasses lots of DRM protection included Google Play Verification

i think as you are rooted , removing license verification through lucky patcher should work , otherwise you can always look into the smali ( which i find confusing ) but some apps can be insanely secure so best of luck

Did all possible LP patches, nothing worked. Will put on hold till later to try the AntiLVL method, and or DRM method. Thanks for the help, will update later

Ok , if it works then you can share it with rest of us in case we ever encounter such problem , i think i have ... it said ( once when i modded a game ) Apk not signed under the right certificate

Update: AntiLVL didnt work. Trying DRM location and removal.

Update 2: Searched for "public boolean allowAccess ()" did not locate throughout any smali files. Assuming it could be DRM 101. Unless there is in fact something else.

the public boolean allowAccess could be encoded too, so it could have got any name.

Anyways, the error you get isn't written in the smali files or .so file either. So that's a bit weird, I'm gonna do some research
