ApkClean - Remove unused resources from apk

[rodrigocorsi]

The low memory of the older phones, impeding the development of new roms.

Almost every application should provide alternative resources to support specific device configurations. In apk has alternative drawable resources for different screen densities and alternative string resources for different languages. At runtime, Android detects the current device configuration and loads the appropriate resources for your application.

The apkclean removes unused resources for the device

Please look at the project and testing if possible :good:

This is an awesome tool! are you planning on updating it ? if not, I'd like to write a bash script to do this for my specific device because this is the error I get, decompiling the jar is too much trouble and I dont like java;
