I want to change some lines in smali file. I converted android's classes.dex to classes.jar by using dex2jar. then used jd-gui to see source files and saved them . from this I got .java files . after editing I want to recompile them to see the differences in resulting smali by recompiling it , convert jar to dex , atlast redecompile it see differences in smali is this possible?

I want to do like this because source code is easy to understand and doing edits than editing smali

Check the link below. Only thing to point out when I copied and pasted the command lines, I got an error. I just retyped the commands and it worked.
