Root Zipalign binary

The zip binary adds the native ability to use the zip command (unzip/zip files, file compression).
The sqlite3 binary will let you use scripts that will vacuum and reindex sqlite3 databases.

I noticed ROM toolbox has a zipalign binary under ROM installer then ROM extras, I installed it through twrp.

Another program I've owned for a few years and haven't really explored in a long time. I really should pay more attention to apps I commonly use.

It turns out that both the one that you get with busybox installer and the one you download from ROM toolbox both gave me a list of errors longer than my arm so I guess the one that exile1975 found is the only one that works so far.
 
It looks like JRummy apps havent seen many updates since kitkat was released.
Edit: Their binary for Samsung devices to play boot animation.zip files doesn't work either. Good thing I already found one on xda.

I didn't check that, I've had the one you posted on my phone since the day I made my first nandroid on this phone lol.
 
How can I have APKs zipalign on boot? I'm using the binary exile1975 posted and Rom Toolbox Lite to Zipalign now, didn't fully test the one in Busybox Installer, sorry about that.

I think you need an init.d script and a kernel that supports init.d in order to have it done at boot.
The scripter tool in Rom Toolbox has an option to set the scripts at boot but it doesn't work. I set the mount system r/w script to run at boot and after rebooting I opened Root Explorer and the system was still mounted as r/o

If you have init.d you can search for a script to zipalign on boot, otherwise you can use script manager from the play store to run scripts on boot.
