Disect Android APKs like a Pro - Static code analysis

I've started writing this IPython notebook in order to make myself more comfortable with Android and its SDK. Due to some personal interests I thought I could also have a look at the available RE tools and learn more about their pros & cos. In particular I had a closer look at AndroGuard which seems to be good at:

Reverse engineering, Malware and goodware analysis of Android applications ... and more (ninja !)

I was charmed but its capabilities and the pythonic art of handling with APKs. In the 2nd step I've needed a malware to play it, so I had a look at Contagio Mobile. There I've randomly chosen a malware and got stucked with Fake Banker. There are some technical details about the malware itself gained during automated tests which can be read here.

This article will only deal with the static source code analysis of the malware. A 2nd part dedicated to the dynamic analysis is planed as well.
