I am very new to the android hacking community so please forgive my ignorance. But is this a program that allows you to create a boot animation for your device?

Assuming you've rooted your device then yes.

Works lang a charm I finally modified my bootanimation using this. One thing though I made a mistake on the command prior making it work.
adb push bootanimation.zip /system/custom/resource (should be customize) How can I remove that. Btw Thanks a lot 2 thumbs up to you.

How to use (I'm stupid so i need instructions) Please

Ill change that now :L
Depending on your phone it has different locations for the bootanimation.
If you tick all the boxes then hit backup open each file until you recognized one as the one you see at the boot screen then simply overwrite that with a custom one. Keeping a backup of course incase it doesnt work properly.

very nice idea! good job!

It doesn't let you create one, but it can set one recover and backup current ones etc.

please explain more
I don't understand at all how to use it ...... :'(

Can't believe I haven't thanked you yet. I've been using this for about a month now, and one thing everyone should know, is this tool has an extra advantage. Contrary to the m10 Editor UI Application, this script uses straight command line which makes all of your sense 3.0 m10 images decode with the same file name every time, where as the UI will give you random file names every time. And this is way simpler
Amresh, This was an ingenious idea and I can't thank you enough!

Download - Cassini.1.2 - 3.5MB [Dev-Host]​
About
First of all, the reason that this program took this much time to come out is because my career-deciding exams where on. So I'm sorry about that.
The newest edition features a GUI - like UI that helps user to easily create new projects (for rom or collection of apps) and manage them.
With the new algorithm the for compression you can ensure that almost all of your apps get compressed successfully! You just have find the perfect set of settings for that particular app. Use it ti compress apps and get a performance boost for your phone as well as save some space!​
Setting Up your PC!
Note: You can skip this step if you already have Java installed on your PC, or you don't want to use the Sign Apk setting for compression.
Download The following resources first:
Java SE Run-time Environment 7 [ Java Dependencies For Signing APK tool ]
Now let's begin setting up your PC,
Install the above mentioned programs.
Go to Advanced System Properties.
It looks like this:
Go to Environment Variables, then create a new System Variable, having name JAVA_HOME and value as the path where you have installed the JRE.
It looks like this:
Now after creating the JAVA_HOME variable, search for Path system variable in the System Variables list. Now this is a bit tricky. Once found click on it and then on Edit. Move the cursor to the end of the string till you see ";" (without quotes), add the path to your JRE bin folder just after it.
It looks like this:
Manual for Cassini.1.2 - Information about the program.​
Include this in your signature if you like and support Cassini and you are using the apps compressed by Cassini!

:good: Hit thanks if you liked it! :good:​

Awesome, I'll try it out as soon as I get the chance. I've been having issues to my current APK Tool in recompiling lollipop aosp system apps after making modifications. Hopefully this fixes my issue.

[ZIP][TEMPLATE] Adaptive Junk Remover

My first smartphone was the Samsung Galaxy S2. And I was shocked how Samsung "destroys" their own device by adding - sorry for the harsh words - idiotic and useless apps.
Samsung is the main reason why many people (most apple users) are mocking Android.

"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Samsung is the worst manufacturer in adding useless apps. Who needs 23 hubs for social, fitness, books, games, blablabla and 3 app stores? And 2 music players?
Nobody, I guess... That's why I deleted the useless apps from /app and /priv-app after every update and that was awful.
Some weeks ago I made this flashable zip which allows me to delete all unnecessary (at least for me!!!) apps with one flash. I made it for personal use with my OPO and BlissPop. I don't need NFC or CellBroadcastReceiver. Never.
Every ROM is different. Every ROM has same apps in /system but also different ones. That's why I'm sharing a template for the flashable zip, not a ready-2-flash-zip.
Adaptive Junk Remover
1. download the provided zip file for KK / L
2. open it with WinRAR (the best program)
3. browse to \META-INF\com\google\android
4. open the file called updater-script with Notepad++ (also the best program)
5. a) you will see this (for a ROM based on Android 5.0.x // CM12), the delete_recursive tag is necessary because L stores apps in subfolders
b) you will see this (for a ROM based on Android 4.4.x // CM11)
6. you have to add the apps you want to remove, have a look inside your /app and /priv-app folder
7. a) enter the folder name (CM12): delete_recursive("/system/app/FOLDER-NAME"); or delete_recursive("/system/priv-app/FOLDER-NAME");
b) enter the app name (CM11): delete("/system/app/APP-NAME.apk"); or delete("/system/priv-app/APP-NAME.apk");
maybe you have also .odex files, delete them with delete("/system/app/APP-NAME.odex");
8. if you've finished save the file, WinRAR asks to update the zip-file, affirm that (!!!IMPORTANT!!!)
9. flash the zip in your custom recovery
!!!WITHOUT GUARANTEE!!!
delete only apps you know they're safe to remove (link, link, link, etc.)
be aware that some apps share their libs, etc.
if anything goes wrong, for example FCs, simply reflash (dirty) your ROM and delete the FC'ed app from the updater-script of the Junk Remover
if you have questions, feel free to ask
my updater-script for my OPO running BlissPop looks like this, using it after every update, no FC, no other issue
Code:
delete_recursive("/system/app/AntHalService");
delete_recursive("/system/app/BasicDreams");
delete_recursive("/system/app/CMWallpapers");
delete_recursive("/system/app/Eleven");
delete_recursive("/system/app/Email");
delete_recursive("/system/app/FaceLock");
delete_recursive("/system/app/Galaxy4");
delete_recursive("/system/app/HoloSpiralWallpaper");
delete_recursive("/system/app/HTMLViewer");
delete_recursive("/system/app/LiveWallpapers");
delete_recursive("/system/app/LiveWallpapersPicker");
delete_recursive("/system/app/MonthCalendarWidget");
delete_recursive("/system/app/NfcNci");
delete_recursive("/system/app/NoiseField");
delete_recursive("/system/app/OpenCamera");
delete_recursive("/system/app/PhaseBeam");
delete_recursive("/system/app/PhotoPhase");
delete_recursive("/system/app/PhotoTable");
delete_recursive("/system/app/PicoTts");
delete_recursive("/system/tts");
delete_recursive("/system/app/PrintSpooler");
delete_recursive("/system/app/Stk");
delete_recursive("/system/app/Terminal");
delete_recursive("/system/app/VisualizationWallpapers");
delete_recursive("/system/app/WhisperPush");
delete_recursive("/system/priv-app/CellBroadcastReceiver");
delete_recursive("/system/priv-app/CMAccount");
delete_recursive("/system/priv-app/DeviceControl");
delete_recursive("/system/priv-app/Mms");
delete_recursive("/system/priv-app/MmsService");
delete_recursive("/system/priv-app/ScreenRecorder");
delete_recursive("/system/priv-app/Tag");
delete_recursive("/system/priv-app/Velvet");
delete_recursive("/system/priv-app/VoiceDialer");

Nice. Thanks for sharing. You did a great job explaining how to go about this and the script/zip works great. Thanks for taking the time.
