Hello guys . Today I want to present you my own partition tool.
This partition tool remove permanently partition cust . In the cust partition xiaomi redmi give you trash apps from 3rd party . GSI don't use this files and for GSI or other non factory Android you don't need it . This zip contain ,,parted,, app and script removing cust partition. This script release for you 560mb-1gb of free space . Script remove partition cust and userdata and make new userdata with bigger size . Recovery have problem with correct format new partition , and you must to do format manually (look atachment). In atach is know/how visual guide for format data , if you don't make format you hardbrick device. Script I wrote today and test on my device few times . Working good and stable . After format you can restore your userdata to fresh partition if you want . If you want restore backup of partition data , please make first boot without restore as new device . Check memory size in settings and reboot to recovery and restore your userdata . This method is fully tested by me . I don't response if you don't do correct what I say . You repartition at your own risk. All credits to this tool is my . I allow only for share this tool and guide to redmi 8A because redmi 7A and 8A have the same cpu , but tool need little re-work for 8A and can't be used on 8A without re-work. I test it on redmi 7A only . Good luck , and watch atach !! . Size of partition cust and userdata is other for all variants of 7A. I test tool on 16gb 7A , I don't make test on variants 32 and 64gb.

Here we discuss or talk to the increase of the primary partition of all smartphones MTK 6577 / 6582 / 6589 /6592 /8382 /8392
Hello to everyone,
Problem painful of all phones with the latest generation processors MTK was the system of Android installed on a primary partition very small!
Now I have tried to increase the primary partition !
Now no one can say it is not enough for the primary partition to install applications!
To saturate this partition it takes!
To simplify I pulled my two files ebr1 and ebr2 to go and directly replace the firmware!
These are the links to the various mods of the two files:
A) Section smartphone models with 32GB total memory
1) Change the primary partition to 2.49 gb. ( Mtk 6589 - 32gb ) .

(many Thanks to my friend Linuxovios
Following the installation procedure
P.S.
Those who have helped me a lot to reach the goal with their guides and tips!
Many thanks to:
Linuxovios, GORDONFIRE , BIOBIO76 , MARSAPA AND PAULTHL !
Let me know if you still have problems ,
hello
New Primary Partition for New Mtk
Mtk 8392 is already made !
PROCEDURE:
More important first of all is to check the drivers if are installed correctly!
try this last adb android :http://ge.tt/2yL21VT[/SIZE]
1)You can flash or together the original firmware !
copy and replace the original ebr 1 and 2 and flash with flashtool together the firmware and make (firmware upgrade) !
2) After on the firmware that was preinstalled .. ...always using flashtool !
If you flash after the installation of the original firmware ...you can select only the two file ebr 1 and 2 ..and make download....... but you clear your custom on your phone!
The Correct procedure to flash is :
1) turn off the phone
2) remove battery and replace it without turn on the phone!
3) run flashtool with scatter file and the only two flags on the ebr 1 and 2
4) make download to the program flashtool
5) connect the usb cable to the pc
Download the original firmware and copy in this folder (the folder where do you unzip the firmware), the two ebr and try again!
This is the correct procedure...but make attention to not select all the files but only the two ebr!
In some situations that is not a bug...but is that after flash the ebr 1 and 2 the second partition must be formatted from the pc!
1) connect the phone to the pc with usb cable
2) Accept the to run on the usb storage in quick menu
3) In this moment the pc recognize the first partition....but we must enter on file manager or resources of the pc and click on the secondary storage!
4) The pc recognize that this secondary storage or partition is not formatted and says o you want to format this partition?
5) Say yes to the format procedure!
More Attention to the drivers if are correctly installed:
the debuging mode is when the phone is turn on but you must turn off the phone and remove the battery and replace it and DO NOT TURN ON!
If you say the phone is in charge ......this situation arrive after .....
You must connect the cable after you have run the flashtool to download button and in this phase the phone is connecting to the program (flashtool) but if this connection is broken arrive the charge phase!
You do not arrive in this phase....probably you do no have the right drivers installed !
Retry to reinstall the drivers adb android:
http://ge.tt/2yL21VT
try it
bye
And this is all !

Ok..before i saw this post i connected my phone to the PC and Immediately the request to format popped up....To be certain ....should i accept that request or should i ignore and go to the drive partitioning area of the PC, look for drive and format it there?
I am asking because i did some looking around and discovered others with the issue...which pointed to the mmc(scatter file) being the issue....offered reworked mmc (with their own ebr 1and 2 in the 2.46GB/25GB which i inserted into the updated firmware) and it worked and i am using it now. It was also stated not to accept this the format request because it would wipe an undesired memory. (It said the RAM, might have been a typo)
I would love to use your partitons so i await your response to the first question for needed clarity ... also my second question is can i use your EBRs with the mmc i obtained?
Forgive me for not just experimenting to discover the answers but at the time of this current post I have had the zp990 for about 14 hours and have flashed it more times than i have made phone calls(or anything else for that matter) and my luck varies ...sometimes it great sometimes it really stinks....and the phone becomes a paper weight before i talk to grandma

1. Download the firmware of your phone. Get it from the zopo forums.
2. Extract it. You will see the default ebr1 and ebr2 files.
3. Replace the ebr1 and ebr2 files with the one provided here.
4. Open flash tools and select the folder where you extracted the firmware files.
5. Select only the ebr1 and ebr2 files.
i did it , now i have a biger partitian for internal storage, thanks .

Hi Guys,
I will appreciate if some can let me know if I can use this method to repartition my cubot one, only 1gb internal storage with 5,75gb as ext-sd. 1gb just to small to fit all my apps. I will appreciate any response.

This is the default ROM for 1s in Indonesia, sold by lazada. It includes Gapps and English-Chinese-Indonesian language.
The backup taken from Redmi 1s before even booting to android. Then I immediately flash CM11
I backed-up all partition, because there's some sort of customization data in /data partition too.
How to use:
1. Download from here or here.
2. Extract to your /TWRP/BACKUPS/<phone id>/ folder (can be internal or external memory).
3. Restore, and you're done.
ROM description taken from build.prop:
ro.build.id=JLS36C

Hi, even if this out of my topic:
1. For backing up sms/call log/contacts, I use Super Backup, it doesn't even need root, for backing up app it need root (only if you want to backup app+data)
2. For app backup, I use Titanium Backup, it does need root though.
Both app is free, and at least in Super Backup you can specify where you want to place the backup.

It can see CM 12 backup because I have put them into the zip file. So when u flash the zip the backup will automatically extract to correct DIR...
That dual boot system different. That was have only one system partition. And My one have 3 new partitions. On that system I tried lot of times. But sometimes not get worked. I don't know why... Maybe my fault. I have tried CM 12 on that. On that u said guide I cannot switch back to other rom after installing the CM12 untill format the system... My one have New recovery. So Your phone will get two recovery modes. And much more...
That's why my Dual Boot system was different from that guide.
Try my Dual Boot system. You will feel it...

Oh for gods sake..everyone now a days is the XDA police. Why dont you let the moderators decide why the thread is here and not there?
Why not just thank a developer for doing something that you neither have inclination nor the calibre or the talent to do or understand. Why not just say "OK cool...dual boot system...nice..I'll try it out..maybe I'll see something different from the 'thread already posted there'" instead of *****ing about it and asking for explanations like you own this forum!

Yes We can install any... But if you flash any New Rom as Second rom Please remember to change the Updater Script Partition paths and partition paths of boot.img of new ROM...
Table will be Like this
Second Rom System Partition = mmcblk0p30
Second Rom Data Partition = mmcblk1p2
Second Rom Cache Parition = mmcblk1p3

yes, if you installed a rom that change data fs you will need to format data, then restore data bkp
copy your files somewhere, format data will erase everything on int storage
Hi everyone i have an A7 2017 model A720F
AND ITS BROKEN BUT it can still run twrp and nothing else
if it is possible for someone have the same model to backup all his partions [BOOT/SYSTEM/DATA/EFS/VENDOR(if exist)/CACHE...] and uploaded them
i would be grateful thanks a lot.
Instead of restoring a backup from someone else (which is generally a bad idea) it would be better to just download any custom ROM and flash that instead.
He's partitions corrupted!

I've done all of that,
all i have to do now is a twrp restorationmaybe it will help restore the corruped partitions.
If you have an A720F can you perform a twrp backup to all partitions and upload them if possible
If you access to recovery mode use "Repartition tool for A5 and A7 2017" script 2 times to format your partitions (second time for come back to normal partition mode).
