Generate Signed Apk Key Wizard Is Buggy
I have an android app currently published in Google Play which I update periodically. I follow the following process to sign the app before a new push:
Press right-mouse on the project, the ‘Android tools’ -> export signed application package
Provide keystore password
Sign your app
Upload the apk file into Google Play Developer Console
When using Eclipse with ADT, you can use the Export Wizard to export a signed.apk (and even create a new keystore, if necessary). The Export Wizard performs all the interaction with the Keytool and Jarsigner for you, which allows you to perform signing via a graphical interface instead of the command-line. The APK file is created: appbuildoutputsapkapp-debug.apk. Releasing the Android app. In order to publish the app, you will need to create a signed APK. Do this as follows: 1. In Android Studio, issue the command Build Generate Signed APK. This starts the Generate Signed APK Wizard. To build a release version of your app, you must generate a signed APK file. You can generate a signed APK in a variety of ways, described in Sign Your App. For the easiest approach, follow the steps in Sign your release build. With this approach, you go to Build Generate Signed APK and complete the information required by the APK wizard.

Recently I have imported the project from Eclipse to Android Studio and continued working on Android Studio. Now I am planning to push a fix in the app. I have figured that I have this option to sign apk in android studio
Build -> Generate Signed apk ->
As per my understanding, for my android app I have to use the same key store and key store password which I used earlier to push updates into Google Play. Also here it’s asking for Key Alias and Key Password. I don’t remember the Key Alias and Key password(number 4 input in the image) while signing apk in Eclipse. Any suggestion what can I do now? If I already know my keystore and keystore password, is there an way to retrieve the key alias and alias key password?

Update: Now I can retrieve my key alias through keytool -list -v -keystore name.keystore command
On the Mac, I found the keystore file path, password, key alias and key password in an earlier log report before I updated Android Studio.
I launched the Console utility and scrolled down to ~/Library/Logs -> AndroidStudioBeta ->idea.log.1 (or any old log number)
Then I searched for “android.injected.signing.store” and found this from an earlier date:
I finally could figure the issue out.
To get the Key Alias: I copied the keytool.exe and my keystore file into C:Program FilesJavajdk1.7.0_71bin folder. Then from command prompt I wrote: keytool -list -v -keystore <name>.keystore
It will also ask for keystore password then. Then it will show you the key alias and Certificate fingerprints and other info.
Then I again tried to Generate Signed Apk for the project, I provided keystore, keystore password, key alias and provided the same password. Then it asks for master password, I tried with the same and it failed. With the reset option I reset the master password here.
how to retrieve keystore password
You cannot retrieve the password. If you forgot it, you are doomed.
how to retrieve key alias
But you need keystore password for this first.

This release was created for you, eager to use Google SketchUp Pro 8 full and with without limitations.Our intentions are not to harm Google software company but to give the possibility to those who can not pay for any pieceof software out there.
EDIT
What I don’t remember is the ‘Key Password’
No password can be restored. If you forgot key password for good then you are doomed too and there’s no other way than trying harder to recall it. There’s no password reset thing nor anything like that.
Be aware that if you forgot your password for good then you will issue no further updates to your app (docs):
Warning: Keep your keystore and private key in a safe and secure
place, and ensure that you have secure backups of them. If you publish
an app to Google Play and then lose the key with which you signed your
app, you will not be able to publish any updates to your app, since
you must always sign all versions of your app with the same key.

In ubuntu, we can find all password related to keystore from the given path.
edit the file and search android.injected.signing.store , then you can find the passwords.
If looking in the logs doesn’t help, you can also try to brute-force the password – check method 3 on this post – Android KeyStore Password Recover.
