Download the APK here: I am going to upload the APK to [https://appetize.io/](https://appetize.io) (free account) to see how the apk is behaving: ![](<../../.gitbook/assets/image (46).png>) Looks like you need to win 1000000 times to get the flag. Following the steps from [pentesting Android](./) you can decompile the application to get the smali code and read the Java code using jadx. Reading the java code: ![](<../../.gitbook/assets/image (47).png>) It looks like the function that is going print the flag is **m().** # **Smali changes** ## **Call m() the first time** Lets make the application call m() if the variable _this.o != 1000000_ to do so, just cange the condition: ``` if-ne v0, v9, :cond_2 ``` to: ``` if-eq v0, v9, :cond_2 ``` ![Before](<../../.gitbook/assets/image (48).png>) ![After](<../../.gitbook/assets/image (49).png>) Follow the steps of [pentest Android](./) to recompile and sign the APK. Then, upload it to [https://appetize.io/](https://appetize.io) and lets see what happens: ![](<../../.gitbook/assets/image (50).png>) Looks like the flag is written without being completely decrypted. Probably the m() function should be called 1000000 times. **Other way** to do this is to not change the instrucction but change the compared instructions: ![](<../../.gitbook/assets/image (55).png>) **Another way** is instead of comparing with 1000000, set the value to 1 so this.o is compared with 1: ![](<../../.gitbook/assets/image (57).png>) A forth way is to add an instruction to move to value of v9(1000000) to v0 _(this.o)_: ![](<../../.gitbook/assets/image (58).png>) ![](<../../.gitbook/assets/image (52).png>) # Solution Make the application run the loop 100000 times when you win the first time. To do so, you only need to create the **:goto\_6** loop and make the application **junp there if **_**this.o**_** does not value 100000**: ![](<../../.gitbook/assets/image (59).png>) You need to do this inside a physical device as (I don't know why) this doesn't work in an emulated device.
