Partition layout - Flipout and Charm General

Hi!
Is there any way to change partition layout on Motorola Flipout?
Got cache partition sized 128MB which i haven't seen using more than 6 MB.
My data partition would like extra MB on programs.

[Q] unusable internal memory

Hi, I am using MIUI with Android version 2.3.7. Everything is allright, but I only have 217 mb of internal memory in total. The MIUI ROM and other apss take up about 180 mb and although I have moved some apps to sd I now only have 40 mb available. It should have 512 mb internal memory. Why can't I see and use all of it? Is it possible that I didn't delete windows mobile or one of the other android roms I have used so far, though I am sure I have tried "clean install" a few times?
Dalvik cache & app data take up a lot of space too, you could move these to th SD ext partition to free up more internal memory. You will need a2sd installed I think to enable this.

the 'available internal memory' figure only counts the data partition size.
so (for example) if your rom requires a 200 meg system partition, you would show..
512 minus 200 minus whatever cache size you flashed minus the boot and recovery partitions (lets guess 50 meg) so your available internal memory on a completely fresh install, no data or apps, would still only show a max of 262meg available.
Also, if you flash a system partition bigger than required, you dont get the extra space to use. So flash a 180meg rom onto a 250 meg system partition, and you lose 70meg, the system wont use it for anything.

Thank you so much. My ROM itself is about 100 mb. How much data partition size should I actually spare for such a rom? Also could you please direct me to the post that tells me how to arrange the data partition size and do the rest of flashing my rom again? I would really like to have more available internal memory. Also I would be happy if you told me what ext 3 or ext 4, whatever it is called, is and if it has anything to do with internal memory.
If the rom is 100mb then you need a partion of at most 110 so if your using clk or magdlr..after you have wiped nand...partition it to 110 if possible or use 105 even cos you don't wanna be giving up wanted space..

[Q] How to flash?

Hello guys i have a T-Mobile HD2. And i know its has 1 gb rom.But the toolkit for hd2 supports only 450 mb max partition. How can i make it 1 gb? Thanks,,
no one knows :/
that 450 is the system partition only, if you made a 1gb system partition, you wouldn't be able to install anything, and you would waste a heap of space. when you setup the partition layout, anything left over becomes the data partition. so a 450 meg partition layout would leave about 550meg as the data partition for your user data, apps and such like..
Also, there's no point making the partition bigger than you need, ,if you flash a 200meg rom to a 450meg layout, you will lose the 250meg difference, it wont be used by the data partition, it will be wasted space.

You can use clk1.5 to increase the system partition to that size in settings>repartition.

Partitioning HDD on Multi-OS system.

Well, I have the Cube i10 Android/Windows Tablet. Nice thing, except maybe the space for the Android OS being a bit too small.
I managed to upgrade my Windows 10 to 10586 and with seperate language pack, it back in my language.
Now i looked around the internet, if I could change the predefined space for either System. (It is possible to increase the partition size of the Andorid OS, but it requires a re-flashing, which I don't neccessarily want. In windows disc-management i saw all the partitions given for android etc, but did not dare to touch something as it was shown in RAW-format. Now i installed a "real" partitioning program (Paragon Partition Manager 15) and it shows me the "real" informations.
Total disk: 28.9 gb (which sums up to ~32gb advertised)
- then a lot of small (5x 16 and 3x 64 and 1x 32mb) GTP partitions, no label, all hidden (i expect these to be android Dalvik, recovery and cache partitions)
- then 4x Linux ext4 partitions (16mb, partially full, 1gb, hardly full, 256mb, half full another almost full 1gb partition) don't know what these are, also all hidden
- then a 3GB Linux ext4 partition (which surely represents the ROM from the Android part, with exact taken/free space data from android)
- then - my problem - a 128mb GPT-Volume, which i can't move
- then the 22.7gb Windows Partition (is resizeable)
- and last, a 450mb hidden backup/windows recovery partition
my problem is, that i can't move the 128mb GPT-Volume. So even if i can split ~2-3gb off the Windows partition, it stays after the GPT volume but it has to be before that to be merged with the android 3gb to make it bigger. I read around that you can delete the GPT-partitions, but don't want to risk it. I "could" merge my 3gb Linux partition with any of the 4 other partitions, but as all of those are not empty, i expect them to be some system recovery backup or whatever. Any information?
I'm afraid that you have to do repartitioning with android flasher and then reinstall Windows too.

sad, i was afraid that it would be able by editing the partition.tbl file in the rom. Well then i have to stay with the few space i got.

Lowering system partition to expand data partition

I am just curios is it posible to repartition out NAND memory to make our system smaller and our data bigger because custom roms for our phone are lot smaller in size then our factory rom.So we have 1gb trapped in system partition so is it posible to partition it like that so we transfer that gb to data?

Partition size : how to change it?!

Hello, i see the cache partition is 1GB and almost empty while system partition struggle with free space (even though i delete lots of system apps, it should get more free space but doesn't.. Crazy); how do i change these?
