I was converting apk file to jimple files and then converting they back to the .dex file immediately. But I cannot do the second the step successfully.
Command line used:
java -Xmx4g -jar soot-trunk.jar soot.Main -p cg.spark verbose:true,on-fly-cg:true -w -allow-phantom-refs -force-android-jar /home/xia/Downloads/android-platforms-master/android-17 -src-prec apk -f jimple -process-dir com.halfbrick.fruitninjafree.apk
In the beginning, it keeps on throwing this exception:
java.lang.RuntimeException: Error parsing class com.google.android.gms.plus.model.moments.MomentBuffer [22,40] expecting: quoted name, identifier

I found that there are some syntax mistakes (might be) in the converted jimple file. For example, in the jimple files, there are some classes named like this:
com.google.android.gms.internal.'if'
java.lang.'annotation'.Annotation
Then I fixed the mistakes manually (by remove single quote and replace 'if' with other variable name like iff).
After I fixed the above mistakes, it shows another exception:
Warning: android.content.OperationApplicationException is a phantom class!
Warning: android.database.MatrixCursor$RowBuilder is a phantom class!
Warning: android.content.ContentProviderResult is a phantom class!

At first I think it's the bug of the tool, but the answer of other question says that the bug has been fixed. But I still get this problem. Does any one know where the problem is? Thank you very much.
