How do I edit the source code of jar in android studio?

The jar that you added is already packaged, meaning you can't edit it anymore. What you can do, is fork the watchdog library, make your changes to that version, and then build the library and add the newly generated jar to your project.

To do this, first download the sourcecode on github, with the "Clone or download" button. Afterwards, extract the zip file, and open the project in android studio.

Now you can make your changes to the source code. After you are done, go back to your main project, and right click it in the project view. Go to "Open Module Settings", and click on the plus sign in the top left. Then select "Import Gradle Project", and choose the directory, of the downloaded and modified watchdog version. Additionally remove the previously added jar from the project, and you should now have the modified version of watchdog, imported into your project.
