The only thing the --debug-mode parameters is doing is inserting "debuggable=true" in the manifest. (see the aapt help output)
Note that the command line you showed only packages the resources in the apk. You'll need to add classes.dex manually to it, as well as any other file you may need (java resources, native libraries). Our command line build is complex, this is why we provide a full Ant rules file. I encourage you to use it, or at a minimum to look at it if you want to build your own build system.
