amazon-vod-noads

Patch Amazon Prime Video APKs to skip server-inserted stream ads using ReVanced CLI, while keeping the patch logic reproducible for new APK versions.

What’s In Here

• analysis/revanced-patches (git submodule): upstream ReVanced patches source.
• patches/revanced-primevideo-skipads.patch: local diff applied on top of upstream to make the Prime Video skip-ads patch more robust across app versions.
• analysis/scripts/patch-primevideo-skipads.sh: end-to-end build + patch script.
• analysis/scripts/patch-primevideo-skipads-dex.sh: dex-only patch script (updates only the dex containing the target class, then resigns).
• docs/AI_RUNBOOK.md: what was changed and how to adapt when a new APK version breaks matching.

Usage

analysis/scripts/patch-primevideo-skipads.sh <input.apk> [output.apk]

Alternative (no ReVanced CLI; dex-only patch, recommended):

analysis/scripts/patch-primevideo-skipads-dex.sh <input.apk> [output.apk]

Alternative (no ReVanced CLI; apktool smali injection, more fragile):

analysis/scripts/patch-primevideo-skipads-smali.sh <input.apk> [output.apk]

Prereqs the script handles (installs to /tmp):

• JDK 21 (for Gradle)
• Android SDK (platform 34 + build-tools 34.0.0)

You must provide GitHub Packages credentials for maven.pkg.github.com/revanced/registry:

• Create /tmp/gradle-home-revanced-patches/gradle.properties containing:
  • githubPackagesUsername=...
  • githubPackagesPassword=...

Token requirements:

• githubPackagesPassword should be a GitHub Personal Access Token (PAT).
• Required scope: read:packages.
• Your GitHub account/token must have access to the revanced/registry GitHub Packages feed (a random GitHub account may not be sufficient if the packages are restricted).
