Android Target APK Extractor

We are thrilled to announce the first major release of Android Target APK Extractor! 🎉
Evolving beyond just a simple Settings.apk extractor, the project has been entirely rewritten to be a powerful, universal utility capable of smart-extracting ANY app from ANY partition strictly from standard OTA Payload .zip ROMs.

🌟 What's New?

• Universal Extraction: No longer hardcoded! You can now target specific partitions (system, system_ext, product, vendor, etc.) and seamlessly extract any app by passing parameters (e.g., APP=MIUISecurityCenterGlobal.apk).
• Smart Recursive Path Finder: The scripts autonomously locate your target .apk within the depths of the filesystem structure using find (Linux) and 7-Zip recursive algorithms (Windows).
• Zero Configuration on Windows: The native extract.ps1 PowerShell script auto-downloads the required payload-dumper-go binary on the fly and acts as a one-click magic wand for Windows users without needing WSL/Docker!
• Docker-Optimised for Linux/macOS: Enhanced Makefile and extract.sh supporting robust positional arguments parsing to easily slice ROMs via containers. No host machine clutter.
• Auto-Cleanup: Your disk space is safe! The engine is engineered to purge 10GB+ of temporary virtual filesystem garbage instantly upon a successful extraction.

🛠️ New Inspection Utilities (For PowerShell)

Not sure what apps exist inside your ROM? Use our new built-in tools before extracting:

• list-partitions.ps1 - Deep X-Ray scan to enumerate all logical partitions hidden inside payload.bin.
• list-apks.ps1 - Automatically dumps a clean text catalogue of every .apk residing inside a chosen partition straight to the apk_lists/ directory!

💻 Quick Start Example

With Windows:

powershell.exe -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File .\extract.ps1 -Partition "product" -App "MIUISecurityCenterGlobal.apk"

With Docker/Linux:

make extract ROM=PISSARRO.zip PARTITION=product APP=MIUISecurityCenterGlobal.apk

Note: Please refer to the README.md and README-vi.md for complete installation requirements (like 7-Zip/Docker) and detailed documentation.
