Seems to work with 2.4.2-d3f9d5-SNAPSHOT.

After rebuilding, zipalign it using this command: zipalign -p -f 4 input.apk output.apk Then sign it with apksigner and should work now.

With the current version of the Android build environment the manifest attribute /manifest/application[@android:extractNativeLibs] is always set to false. This means the libraries in the APK are page aligned by the build environment (not to confuse with zipaligning the whole APK) and the loader loads them directly from the APK (presumably storage space considerations). When the ApkTool (version 2.4.0) recompiles such an APK it doesn’t change the manifest settings but due to the recompilation the resulting library file layout in the APK is not page aligned anymore, and that’s the cause the loader fails and the error occures. Removing the attribute or explicitely setting it to true (the default value) prevents the bug to happen.
