[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Nikhil:
Hi Everybody,

Are you tired of installing same apps again and again after installing new Rom or factory resetting current Rom?

Well, We have been experiencing the same since different Roms and Nightlies are out. Hence I and RajatPatel created a tool which would make it easier for you to try different Roms and install those apps/fonts/bootanimations/etc in just one shot.

★ What is this tool about?

Android Flashable Zip Creator is a tool for those who oftenly flash new roms and want an easy way to install apps, change fonts or bootanimation. This tool allows them to create a flashable zip with aroma installer that they can flash anytime in their rooted android device. Not only this is helpful to end users but also helpful for developers who release different version of their Apps, Tones, Fonts and Bootanimations

★ Why is it required?

Imagine that you’re flashing the latest nightly of your favorite ROM. If you are performing a fresh install by wiping all of your data, this also means that you have to flash all of your modified system apps, user apps, modules, and so on. And if you’re doing this on a regular basis, all the wasted time really starts to add up. So what do you do? Do you manually install these apps again, or do you add them to your favorite ROM? That is where this tool is helpful.

★ How is it helpful?

For you to create a flashable zip, you need knowledge of scripting language (edify).

Once you know it, you need to write it and update it everytime you make a change (add or remove files from zip).

It is very likely that we make mistakes (like missing semi-colon or forget closing the bracket) and fail to notice it while creating it.

We come to know about it only when we try to flash the zip file and experience an error in recovery.

To fix it, we again make changes in updater-script and test the zip again.

After spending hours and hours into creating a zip file, a new version of file releases and we are forced to make changes in zip to stay up to date.

All this time, if number of apps, fonts, rest of the files increases, the lines of code required in updater-script also increases.

To save your hours of time into creating zip file, we present you this tool which would just needs your few minutes to create a flashable zip file.
