Is it possible change partition table to have more system size and less data size?
My device is S-ON.
Thanks.
You can only do this if you are S-OFF.

i have installed the oxgen bravo table , what does the img do , is it just a new image for fastboot /bootloader
It resizes your partitions on your phone. It reduces the /system and /cache partitions and gives you more or less double the /data partition. The data partition is where all your apps get stored so it gives you more space. There is nothing special really, just resizes the partitions.
Hi.. what is size defalut of system partition in NAND? i mean how big can be my rom to use it to nand all...
BTW i have usable froyo sense but still on ext4.. i want make it smaller to put it on NAND
sys/data - ext4/NAND.
maybe i will up it here 19-20/3 if it will be completed
Big thanks to jholtom
I believe it is 102 megabytes by default. (+/-5)
I usually for any sense rom except HTC tattoo 1.6 use atools and expand the system memory to about 168 megabytes
If you are going ext4 for /system and /data on NAND, just move the slider so that Data has the entire NAND drive (or leave about 16MB on /system), and if you use ext4 for /system, you'll have exactly 256MB for /system.
For a while now I've been playing around with custom MTD partitions. I ran MIUI for several months with Caulkin's "stock" partition sizes (whatever the presets are that come with his mod) and then recently increased the size of my system partition (at the expense of some cache size) so that I could run a Sense 3.5 ROM. My questions are as follows:
A.) How does smaller/larger cache partition affect the overall performance of the system?
B.) If data partition size was to remain constant, would it behoove me to allot the excess internal space to my system partition or to my cache partition?
I have read that excess space on the system partition can increase ROM performance but I'm unclear as to whether sacrificing cache space for system space would be counter-productive...
Thanks in advance.
Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?...

Last ditch effort at a bump. Sry.

Is there a way to resize the MMC blocks? Right now /dev/block/mmcblk0p45 is /system and when running AOSP-based roms this partition is mostly empty (500 or so MB used of 2.2GB).
When flashing GPE-conversion this partition is resized (shrunk) to be smaller and thuss giving you more space on /data but making SENSE based roms unable to install unless you flash back the firmware.
So what part of firmware decides what size each block should be? And would it be possible to shrink /dev/block/mmcblk0p45 (ie, system) so that DATA gets more space, in some cases more then 1GB more.
No, sorry.
At the moment, it's only possible by using a RUU for your device.
Are you sure you have it the right way around? Isn't it 2.2GB used and 500M free? Is that what you get when you use df in terminal? For me it shows size as 2641M 2128M used and 513 free...
Just asking =o/
how do you resize the system partition? i'd like to install gsi roms but it is exceeding the size limit
