I used revert local history and now there is no code at all. I have a working version of the app on my phone.
Is there any way I can get the source code back from my phone?

  • If you reverted using your source control system (svn, git, etc), maybe your IDE has a local history you can go through? I've been able to recover deletes in both IntelliJ IDEA and Eclipse. – Todd Jan 10 '15 at 18:01

No. You can't get exact source code from .apk file.

You can try find your answer here. Is there a way to get the source code from an APK file?

But this will not the exact copy of your project.

    This is a tad misleading. Of course you can't get the source code back, but you can get something resembling it that will certainly be a lot quicker to use than a complete rewrite. Java is a lot more amenable to decompilation than most compiled languages (assuming progard was not enabled, in which case it'll be a nightmare) – Richard Tingle Jan 10 '15 at 18:06
