Building jadx from source

JDK 8 or higher must be installed:

git clone https://github.com/skylot/jadx.git
cd jadx
./gradlew dist

(on Windows, use gradlew.bat instead of ./gradlew)

Scripts for run jadx will be placed in build/jadx/bin and also packed to build/jadx-<version>.zip

Run

Run jadx on itself:

cd build/jadx/
bin/jadx -d out lib/jadx-core-*.jar
# or
bin/jadx-gui lib/jadx-core-*.jar

Troubleshooting

Out of memory error:

Reduce processing threads count (-j option)
Increase maximum java heap size:
- command line (example for linux): JAVA_OPTS="-Xmx4G" jadx -j 1 some.apk
- edit 'jadx' script (jadx.bat on Windows) and setup bigger heap size: DEFAULT_JVM_OPTS="-Xmx2500M"
