Hello, guys. I'm sharing with you the app ZIPme, it allows you to create a flashable backup ZIP of anything! Build.prop, boot animation, system fonts, accounts, messages, wallpaper, Wi-Fi, apks, apks+data, only data etc.
It's really easy, I added some screenshots to you.

Tested in:
Galaxy S Advance (GT-I9070)
Galaxy S III (GT-9300)
Atrix 4G

Note: if you test tell me to add in list :)

Hope you like!


Words of developer (JRummy Apps):
ZIPme is in beta. This means there will be bugs and some hiccups.
ZIPme is a powerful tool to create update ZIP packages to install in recovery. Whether you are a ROM developer or just getting into "root" and "ROMs" ZIPme can simplify your life.

Who should use ZIPme?
If you install custom ROMs on your rooted Android device then ZIPme can be a powerful tool. ZIPme requires root access.

What does ZIPme do?
ZIPme creates ZIP packages to install in recovery mode. When you install a new ROM your system is wiped and many times you clear your data. ZIPme can create a package of your apps, data and files you want to install right after a ROM or as a ROM addon. ZIPme programs and signs the update ZIP package so your recovery can install it.

You're welcome!
If you test tell the results to me :fingers-crossed:
This has been out since May. I'm glad you posted it in XDA. I never would have found it otherwise.

Testing now...

Edit: Worked perfectly. Made a zip backup of my SMS. This app deserves to be on the front page. Thank you.

Atrix 4G CM7 btw.

Bloody brilliant =), I don't know much about flashing and that I know the basic concept and know my fair share but would it be possible to 'zip' lots of android apps as a backup and use aroma installer to choose which apps to install on ur phone again?

Well, when you are building an AROMA installer you select what files do you want, so you can backup with ZIPme, extract and put then in AROMA.

I guess it can be with system/app from rom itself..How about eg SystemUI.apk place in my storage? Can u guide me how to do?? Thanks
It's not necessary to flash.
Copy the apk, go to /system/app, mount r/w, paste the apk, confirm the replacement, set permissions to rw-r--r and reboot!

How is this app different from a nandroid backup, or a cwm backup?
You can backup just what you want and it not backup all system (ROM), you can only backup important files to prevent anything.
Eg, I backup build.prop,
and boot animation in case of anything go wrong and the phone doesn't boot (making flash ROM again unnecessary).
