download dex2jar (https://sourceforge.net/projects/dex2jar/files/)

goto folder in command prompt
chmod u+x d2j_invoke.sh
chmod u+x d2j-dex2jar.sh
put desired apk to decompile in dex2jar folder
sh d2j-dex2jar.sh -f -o output_jar.jar my_app.apk

Use dex2jar classes.dex instead of d2j-dex2jar classes.dex And please check which version of dex2jar is with you. if it is dex2jar-2.x jar file then , please try to download dex2jar-0.0.9.15 jar file.

Add permission with: chmod +x d2j-dex2jar.sh Then run it with: ./d2j-dex2jar.sh app.apk

If you have downloaded the d2j-dex2jar-2.x then it would not contain the d2j-dex2jar.sh file

so, try to download the dex2jar-0.0.9.15 from the link dex2jar-0.0.9.15

Finally extract this zip file and you will find the d2j-dex2jar.sh file.

Hopefully this will help you!

Just goto the folder where you put your classes.dex file then just run the command in command prompt https://i.stack.imgur.com/8X3aP.png

-Make sure you have downloaded the dex2jar latest version which is dex2jar-2.0. download it with this link

https://sourceforge.net/projects/dex2jar/

-It will then make your classes.dex file to executable jar 'classes-dex2jar.jar'
