## FAQ

### What should I do if list_devices returns empty?

Check your USB debugging settings and run 'adb devices'. If you have multiple devices connected, pass the specific serial number.

### Why are there no business classes after a static unpack?

The application is likely protected by a packer; you should use BlackDex or Frida instead.

### How do I fix a dex_to_smali failure?

Ensure Java is installed and place the baksmali jar in the tools/ directory or specify the path using the BAKSMALI_JAR environment variable.

### Where are the unpacked files saved?

Files are saved to the 'unpack-output/' directory by default, or the directory specified by the DEX_OUT_DIR environment variable.
