One question. If I had zip my downloaded apps without data(not system apps) would flashing update.zip have place that apps again into /data/app folder or will they be installed as system apps into /system/app?

I'm asking cause it makes difference, I don't want to manually replace them to /data/media if they would be installed into /system/app.. Time is money. :)

Thanks for any clarify. ;)
[Android Apps and Games] eduds:
Hello!

The zip will install your applications where they were installed when you created the zip file. You can take a look into update-script in the zip file to know where each application will be installed :)
[Android Apps and Games] malachow:
Yeah, I've made a little research by testing it - created .zip with my app, uninstalled app & flashed .zip.. and it indeed did a trick for me. :victory: It's so perfect tool I'v been searching for since entering a custom world that I'm totally spechless now. ;)

Anyway, may I ask you for an opinion - as I see it hasn't been updated till may by its dev with beta status for now. Is it totally safe to use it?

Cheers, you've made my day sharing that app with us. :D
[Android Apps and Games] punkmexic:
can it flash kernels?

can it flash kernels?
[Android Apps and Games] eduds:
I'm happy that it worked for you :highfive:

I can't tell if it's tottaly safe because nothing is perfect, but is a safe tool made by a great dev. I trust in JRummy :silly:

PS: you can't flash your .zip file right after flash a custom ROM, your device will be in a boot loop, first flash the ROM, reboot the system then flash the .zip file.

Hello, it can't flash kernel. It only flash a zip file previously created on your device.

Take a look into Universal Kernel Flash (FREE), just check if your device is listed.

Please help me. It's really important to me. Thanks again.
[Android Apps and Games] eduds:
Hi,

Open the .zip file, you will see two folders, the META-INF and data. Open the data, you see two folder again, but this time is app and data. Copy the second data files (zip file/data/data) and past into /data located into root of your device. After all reboot your device.

I hope you understand the steps.

Good luck.

I'm using KitKat (4.4.2) and I don't get any error.

Yes, with any combination :( also when I change the location of the zip file. When I click "create" the progressbar apears and a sec later the "Fail" apears :(

Hi,

I successfully made an zip of my apps, but I can't flash it :(

Every time I try to flash it I get the error:

This zip isn't meant to be flashed in recovery!

It might be a bootloader flashable zip or not a flashable zip at all

Do you know what's causing that?

Thank you

Maybe it's your recovery, what is your recovery? I tested in CWM and TWRP and had no problems.

[Android Apps and Games] FuTChY:
Tested on Galaxy note II running official KK 4.4.2 using stock kernel with swapped storrage.

1- Creating the zip file for user app+data didn't complete and the application gave a force stop message after almost it completed.

2- No zip file was found.

3- Created a single app+data zip file for Facebook.

4- It installed but Facebook opened as if it's a fresh installation so data backup is not working I guess.
[Android Apps and Games] phedders:
This app is very slick.

One thing I would really appreciate, is to be able to repeat the same backup multiple times - if it could save a "template" of stuff to put in a zip, which I could select for next time....

Is there some sort of zip file size limit to using this? If I select all the apps I want, ZIPme finishes but there is no update.zip to be found. If I select a small handful of apps, it works fine. SGSIII, w/Slimrom 4.4.4...
[Android Apps and Games] eduds:
Hi, motocrossmann.

At first look, I don't think there is a specific size limit, but it can't be big. However, ZIPme app still in a beta moment can't handle very well some things. If ALL files are important to you, I suggest you create separated files.
[Android Apps and Games] el_easy:
That happened to me too..What it works for me is when you create a zip files change the name, for example instead update.zip to moto.zip.
[Android Apps and Games] motocrossmann:
Fantastic tip! Thanks!!! That worked for me!
[Android Apps and Games] phyl65:
Hi !

I'm trying to use ZIPme to create a ZIP file that I could use to restore my settings, apps, data when clean flashing a rom.

It works for small selections (for example all Data + some System). But, as soon as I select too many apps it runs for a long time... and when finished, no .zip file has been generated...

When running, I see no file in the target folder. I guess that it stores the zip being build somewhere... Do you know where ?

Could it be a space issue ?

[Android Apps and Games] sketchman16:
Didn't work for me. Caused a boot animation loop. Had to hard reboot into recovery and reflash the ROM I just tried. Then the ROM booted fine.

Process:

1. Advance wipe Dalvik, Cache, System, Data

2. Flash ROM and PA Gapps and Zipme zip I just made of my apps and profile info

3. Reboot to boot loop on SlimKat boot animation

4. Hard reboot into recovery

5. Wipe again

6. Reflash ROM and Gapps but leave out Zipme file

7. Reboot and it boots fine into the initial setup for Android

Not sure what happened, but it just didn't work at all for me.

LG 4x hd was the hardware if that helps. Flashing SlimKat 8.18 and latest PA Gapps. Should I have booted into initial setup and then rebooted and flashed the zip?

[Android Apps and Games] Karamvir Singh:
Hey just wanted to ask though I think its not possible......but still is there a way it can create a zip for stock recovery.......

Or I had a few zips that worked with stock recoveries....so can it some how copy the signature of one zip to another.....and thus making it compatible with stock recovery.....
[Android Apps and Games] Nexus5-32GB:
oh and btw after creating a zip file with around 12 apps in it I went to TWRP and flashed another rom and flashed the backup of apps (apk+data) from zip.me and only two of the apps works :D Other just FC, so no, this is no good app...

I was going from LP5.1 to another LP5.1 and all the apps were user apps, not system apps or anything like that.
[Android Apps and Games] koragg97:
When i switched from my S3 Mini to the S5 i ziped my user apps in 7 segments of around 200mb each. When i flashed them in TWRP, apps were installed but data was lost so i had to set them up again. This might be due to me trying to move data from one android version to another though. So app is good for small zips, I've tried that and didn't have a single problem. But when it comes to making large zip files, don't rely on this app. That is until an update comes, remember that it's still in beta phase! :)

I don't think I've ever used it to restore my data for a app I only use it to install things that aren't on a new ROM that I'm trying.

If I try to create a flashable zip for the Google Play Store, or Google Maps (to use with MicroG), it doesn't include any of the library files - eg /system/priv-app/appName/lib/arm64/libfile.so

And of course Google Maps and Google Play Store will fail to run if their library files aren't installed along with it.

Well, the workaround I'm using is, instead of telling zipme to add the app, I tell it to add the folder of the app in /system/priv-app/appName
