Today (03312011) we've fixed a corrupted sdcard for real!
On your Phone:
1. parted /dev/block/mmcblk0
2. print and write down
3. delete all partitions
4. recreate partitions (see point 2)
5. format mmcblk0p1 with vfat
6. format mmcblk0p2 with ext4 (example: mke2fs -q -L data -b 4096 -m 0 -F /dev/block/mmcblk0p2)
7. reboot
Done on CyanogenMod 7.
Code:
* daemon not running. starting it now *
* daemon started successfully *
~ # umount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1
umount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1
umount: can't umount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1: Invalid argument

~ # umount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1
umount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1
umount: can't umount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1: Invalid argument
~ #

halp!
edit: I can manage to navigate the phone, i just cant execute some of these commands....
Nice job...now..someone with a i9000m and bad internal SD needs to try this to see if it fixes the issue...if so...we found our solution!
I have the corrupted SD card. Can't access from Android but I can mount it in ADB and all the files are there.
When I try this:
echo /dev/block/mmcblk0 > /sys/devices/platform/s3c-usbgadget/gadget/lun1/file
or this:
$ dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/mmcblk0p1
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/mmcblk0p1
dd: can't open '/dev/mmcblk0p1': Permission denied
I get permission denied...
Any other ideas?

Looks like those devices aren't mounted, so you can't umount them.
type 'mount' to see a list of already mounted devices.
If the devices aren't mounted then you can skip onto the next step.

You need to 'su' first.
OK, luckily I can still boot into Darkys ROM and su is there.
# dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/mmcblk0p1
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/mmcblk0p1
/dev/mmcblk0p1: write error: No space left on device
349201+0 records in
349200+0 records out
178790400 bytes transferred in 22.746 secs (7860300 bytes/sec)
Is this error a problem?
OK, after: fat.format /dev/block/mmcblk0p1
"success to format"
damn, no change - still get the "damaged internal SD card" message.
must be some missing some mysterious Samsung-specific partition data. Can see the entire SD card through adb. Just can't mount it in Android.
Any other suggestions?
I did get the same problem a few weeks ago but after performing a format with in the settings menu it got fixed, will bookmark this thread though incase it happens again and regular format does not resolve it.
Code:
~ # mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1
mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1
mount: mounting /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 on /mnt/sdcard failed: I/O error
~ # fat.format /dev/block/mmcblk0p1

Still cant access it :/

you should mount it via usb to your pc and format with windows.
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
1. Flash Kernel with ADB-Support while at Recovery: h t t p://w w w.multiupload.com/3SVI4OBTD9
2. Boot into Recovery
3. adb shell
4. umount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1
5. umount /dev/block/mmcblk0p2
6. echo /dev/block/mmcblk0 > /sys/devices/platform/s3c-usbgadget/gadget/lun1/file
7. In Windows simply right click the desired Device and format it. No Quickformat! Will take 2 Hours or more.#
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
theres no instruction which says "use fat.format"
Yeah but the problem is it cant umount because it returns
Code:
mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1
mount: mounting /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 on /mnt/sdcard failed: I/O error
and
Code:
echo /dev/block/mmcblk0 > /sys/devices/platform/s3c-usbgadget/gadget/lun1/file
doesn't seem to do anything as it never shows up in windows...
i think my phone is just downright screwed
First post here, hi all.
I am also having an SD Card issue on my Bell galaxy s ( have no external SD cards installed, only the 16GB internal).
History:
I upgraded from 2.1 (downloaded OCLF from Market, installed Insanity 0.93 and then to 0.94 (which has sataloop set to null under advance lagfix menu) and all was working great).
Then i decided to flash: SO_zImage_opt_ext_root_JPM-JP6_V4_2_OC.zip kernel (found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=811660 ) via Odin and on reboot, i could not get past the galaxy S screen (buttons would stay lit).
In the clockwork recovery screen i got the message:
E: can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk1p1)
No such file or directory
Error mounting /mnt/sdcard/!
Flashed to I9000UGJH2-PDA-Kernel-Bootloader-CL490514-Low.tar (stock ROM)
still unable to get past galaxy S screen (buttons would stay lit) and had the SD card error in recovery screen.
I ended up flashing with Eugene's Eugene_2E_JK2_Froyo.tar.md5 and pit 512 (did not check repartition)
and i am able to boot back into OS 2.2
However my SD card is showing blank or unrecognized format.
I have tried the steps in this thread and i am getting the following output in adb shell:

In clockwork recovery menu when trying to format the SD card i get the message:
E: Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk1p1)
(no such file or directory)
Error mounting /mnt/sdcard/!
Skipping format...
Done.
I can see the drives in Windows 7, but when i right click the drive to attempt to format it from windows i get the message: Please insert a disk into drive.
I am currently running Eugene_2E_JK2_Froyo and i tried formatting the SD card from within the phone menu but nothing actually happens, the SD card shows 0.00B of available space, if i try to download a market app i get the message not enough space.
Any suggestions?
Thx in advance!
Get it for repair... No joke nothing can be done sd card is partially dead . I got the.same problem
Sent from my GT-P1000M using XDA App
~ # fdisk -l /dev/block/mmcblk0
fdisk -l /dev/block/mmcblk0
fdisk: can't open '/dev/block/mmcblk0': I/O error
I said "if partitiontable is ok go on".
Your partition table isn't ok.
-> Samsung support!
~ # fdisk -l /dev/block/mmcblk0
fdisk -l /dev/block/mmcblk0
fdisk: can't open '/dev/block/mmcblk0': I/O error
so I guess it's back to bell right?
Question about FDISK:
Seems like I need su to execute fdisk. Problem is I can only give su permission from Android. Except in Android, I can't mount the sd - I can only mount it from within CWM. Does fdisk require the sd to be mounted?
I can mount and navigate the sd card using CWM and from adb (when CWM is running) just fine and access the files.
Is there no way to repair the partition table?
I'd be willing to offer a bounty for this, and I'm sure others would as well.
TIA
For those who have "Internal SD Damaged" at boot and mount error in recovery.
Try flashing JPC with repartition using 512 pit.
I did just that to fix my damaged internal SD.
Thanks StoneRoses - tried this many times with no luck.
Will try again just for fun. (back shortly)
................
OK, done - same error as before:
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1
(I/O error)
E:copy_dbdata_media:Can't mount SDCARD:
:-(
I had the "Can't mount SD Card" issue, i tried a number of different combinations of flashing about 5 different firmwares (with variations of repartitioning, and not, etc.).
Nothing worked for me, couldn't mount in adb either. I finally sent it back via Bell (I bought my phone outright from T-Booth, I'm not a bell customer at all, was using unlocked on Rogers). They sent it back for me, but I am waiting to hear that they either have it back, or I have to pay more to get it fixed... We will see!
Hey all.
Tools I used for flashing and backup:
on PC linux box:
- heimdall - which does the flashing
- netcat - (nc, ncat or netcat) tool for writing to or reading from network.
- partx - assigns partitioned disk images as kernel's loop devices like: loop0p2...loop0p25
on s3 mini:
- busybox
- "Rooted SSH/SFTP Daemon"
Before rooting reboot the phone to the download mode and download
the pit file with:
Code:
heimdall download-pit --output goldenxx.pit --no--reboot
Root your phone and install busybox and ssh daemon on it.
Start sshd but close all other apps to keep filesystem activity so low as possible.
start netcat on your PC:
Code:
netcat -l 192.168.0.11 5050 > mmcblk0.gz
Now netcat is listening for input from your lan (Replace address to corresponding your PC's IP address)
Now try to connect to your phone with ssh. When you got an # prompt then:
Code:
sync
and send your whole internal storage from phone to your PC:
Code:
cat /dev/block/mmcblk0 | gzip | nc 192.168.0.11 5050
Do not start any apps on your phone before you got back the command prompts both on phone and PC.
when you got a command prompt again and no error messages was printed. you should have an
gzip compressed disk image of you phones mmc on your PC.
Check its integrity running
Code:
gzip -t mmcblk0.gz
If the package is ok, copy the goldenxx.pit and mmcblk0.gz to the sure location.
Now you can make an uncompressed copy of mmcblk0.gz for example:
Code:
zcat Backup/mmcblk0.gz > ~/mmcblk0
With partx you can use the image like any other partitioned disks running as root:
Code:
partx -v -a ~/mmcblk0
it should print something like this:
Code:
partition: none, disk: mmcblk0, lower: 0, upper: 0
Trying to use '/dev/loop0' for the loop device
/dev/loop0: partition table type 'gpt' detected
/dev/loop0: partition #2 added
/dev/loop0: partition #3 added
/dev/loop0: partition #4 added
...
/dev/loop0: partition #25 added
and print out the data of partitions associated within kernel:
Code:
partx -s ~/mmcblk0

now you can explore the partitions and make images of it. For example:
Code:
file -s /dev/loop0p11
/dev/loop0p11: Linux rev 1.0 ext4 filesystem data, UUID=1b70457a-e011-c65a-87c6-f346bd874821, volume name "efs" (extents) (large files)
Code:
cat /dev/loop0p11 > ~/efs.ext4
and...
Code:
file -s /dev/loop0p16
Code:
/dev/loop0p16: data
It is modem.bin so:
Code:
cat /dev/loop0p16 > ~/modem.bin
Note that ext4 images must be transformed to the right .img-file form with ext2simg tool before flashing.
Be careful before flash your phone with these files.
remember to unmount all /dev/loop0 -partitions and finally
Code:
partx -d /dev/loop0
losetup -d /dev/loop0
because the images was copied from running system,
all writeable filesystems are not clean. So you might want to e2fsck these partitions.

now you can explore the partitions and make images of it. For example:
Code:
file -s /dev/loop0p11
/dev/loop0p11: Linux rev 1.0 ext4 filesystem data, UUID=1b70457a-e011-c65a-87c6-f346bd874821, volume name "efs" (extents) (large files)
Code:
cat /dev/loop0p11 > ~/efs.ext4
and...
Code:
file -s /dev/loop0p16
Code:
/dev/loop0p16: data
It is modem.bin so:
Code:
cat /dev/loop0p16 > ~/modem.bin
Note that ext4 images must be transformed to the right .img-file form with ext2simg tool before flashing.
Be careful before flash your phone with these files.
remember to unmount all /dev/loop0 -partitions and finally
Code:
partx -d /dev/loop0
losetup -d /dev/loop0
because the images was copied from running system,
all writeable filesystems are not clean. So you might want to e2fsck these partitions.

THE PROBLEM
As many of us have noticed, it is fairly easy to get an "Out of space" message when installing apps on our phones because, for some weird reason, Oppo decided that the storage part of the device should linger in the dark ages, when /userdata and /sdcard were separate partitions and you only had 2GB of data storage, even if your phone was a 32GB model.
Now, imagine that you are running KitKat and would like to try ART. This may be a bad idea as, if your data partition is more than 30% full, you will find that while converting your apps to this new format, Android will run out of space.
At OppoForums, a few bright people started looking into the issue and, of course, there is a way to improve the situation.
WARNING!
If you follow the steps below correctly, you should not run in any trouble. If you do not, however, you may end up spending much more time fixing your phone.
FIRST, THE THANKS SECTION
Anders tinkered with his device’s partition table until he got to where he had grown the /userdata partition to something useable. Yes, it’s some people’s definition of “play”
Jousa11 is the first person trying to put a guide together explaining the steps to reproduce Anders’ work. WARNING: I did no get to see said guide as Jousa quickly deleted it due to the risks involved. So, take that in account!
Rockman for providing the last resort rescue tools in case you brick your phone
Lucky for providing the WiFi fix
Please let me know if you are not on this list and I forgot to give you credit!
YOU WILL NEED
The hardware:
An Oppo Find5 phone(!)
A computer (Windows/Linux/Mac) with adb installed and working
A USB cable
On your computer:
adb
[Optional] fastboot
On your phone (SDCard):
parted + mke2fs + tune2fs
mmcblk0p21_persist_ext4.img
openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.0-find5-TP-patch.img
[Optional] gdisk
You will use parted to work on your partition table; mke2fs and tune2fs to create ext4 filesystems on some of these partitions (parted does not know how to create ext4 partitions)
mmcblk0p21_persist_ext4.img is an image that you need to restore your /persist partition and avoid issues such as non-working WiFi.
openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.0-find5-TP-patch.img is a patched recovery image. I know: you already have a recovery image if you are going through these steps. However, we are going to wipe it so you want to install this guy before rebooting. Note that if you forget, you can always flash it later using fastboot.
On your computer:
adb to access your phone recovery, push files to SDCard, reboot...
[Optional] fastboot. You will only need fastboot if you mess up your recovery partition.
WHAT IF SOMETHING GOES AWFULLY WRONG?
You may “brick” your phone. Apparently it’s near impossible to hard brick your Find5, though. See below.
First, Anders recommends making a backup of your partition table. I didn’t because I felt that if I messed something up, it would be a partitions’ content rather than the partition table but that’s not the wisest approach.
Furthermore, if you are really worried about what stilly error your fat fingers will cause (I know I should be!) you can also backup your partitions.
Backing up your partition table:
On your phone:
Code:
gdisk -b /sdcard/gpt.bin /dev/block/mmcblk0
Backing up a single partition:
On your phone:
Code:
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p<partition id> of=/sdcard/backup-<partition id>.bin
On your computer:
Code:
adb pull /sdcard/gpt.bin
adb pull /sdcard/backup-<partition id>.bin
LAST RESORT
OK. So, you've bricked your phone. Now what?
First, you will need Windows. So if you're on a Mac or Linux and have no access to a Windows machine/VM, er..don't brick your phone.
- Download drivers and tools
- Download and follow the instructions
READY ? LET'S GET STARTED
>>>>>>>>>>>> First, Download The Files <<<<<<<<<<<<
Then...
On your computer:
UPDATE As dixxa pointed out, mke2fs and tune2fs may already be present on your device. It was not the case for me but you should check first; it seems like a good idea to use existing binaries.
Code:
adb reboot recovery
adb push parted /sbin
adb push mke2fs /sbin
adb push tune2fs /sbin
On your phone:
Code:
chmod 755 /sbin/parted /sbin/mke2fs /sbin/tune2fs
umount /cache
umount /sdcard
umount /emmc
umount /data
parted /dev/block/mmcblk0
You are now in the parted shell.
CAREFUL! Do not delete any partition below 20 or you will enter "Big Oops" territory. I recommend typing carefully and, yes, staying away from copy/paste operations that may swallow a character like, say, the '2' in '20'
Note that the size value I am using here is '4GB' for /userdata (rather than 2GB). I guess you could make /userdata bigger than 4GB, in which case you would have to recompute all the offsets in the commands below(!)
Code:
# rm sdcard
rm 29
# 28 thru 23 are reserved
rm 28
rm 27
rm 26
rm 25
# rm recovery
rm 24
# rm misc
rm 23
# rm cache
rm 22
# rm persist
rm 21
# rm data/emmc
rm 20
# now, re-create partitions but data is bigger
mkpart primary 1325 5421
name 20 userdata
mkpart primary 5421 5430
name 21 persist
mkpart primary 5430 5967
name 22 cache
mkpart primary 5967 5968
name 23 misc
mkpart primary 5968 5979
name 24 recovery
mkpart primary 5979 6012
name 25 reserve1
mkpart primary 6012 6019
name 26 reserve2
mkpart primary 6019 6028
name 27 reserve3
mkpart primary 6028 6062
name 28 reserve4
mkpart primary 6062MB 100%
name 29 sdcard
# exit parted shell
q
Let's create a file system on the partitions that require one. Note that I am formatting the SDCard using VFAT as, yes, EXT4 is a better FS, but it is also incompatible with Oppo's ROM and some apps may not require the proper permissions etc.
Code:
# Notes:
# -m 0: no reserved blocks
# -c 0: no max mount count
# -C -1: no mount count
# -i -1: max_int interval between checks
mke2fs -t ext4 -m 0 -L userdata /dev/block/mmcblk0p20
tune2fs -c 0 -i -1 -C -1 /dev/block/mmcblk0p20
mke2fs -t ext4 -m 0 -L persist /dev/block/mmcblk0p21
tune2fs -c 0 -i -1 -C -1 /dev/block/mmcblk0p21
mke2fs -t ext4 -m 0 -L cache /dev/block/mmcblk0p22
tune2fs -c 0 -i -1 -C -1 /dev/block/mmcblk0p22
# Hey look it’s an ext4 SDCard!
mke2fs -t ext4 -m 0 -L sdcard /dev/block/mmcblk0p29
tune2fs -c 0 -i -1 -C -1 /dev/block/mmcblk0p29
# Actually to avoid errors like unable to write to root of sdcard:
mkdosfs -n sdcard -F 32 /dev/block/mmcblk0p29
mount -t vfat /dev/block/mmcblk0p29 /sdcard
At this point, we have clobbered the /persist partition and this could cause issues as mentioned earlier. Let's restore it.
Code:
# Restore /persist partition
mount -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p29 /sdcard
# On computer
adb push mmcblk0p21_persist_ext4.img /sdcard/
# On phone
dd if=mmcblk0p21_persist_ext4.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p21
IMPORTANT! Flash your recovery partition now. If you wait until after rebooting, you will need to use fastboot instead.
Code:
# Recovery partition: on computer
adb push openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.0-find5-TP-patch.img /sdcard/
# On phone
dd if=openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.0-find5-TP-patch.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p24
Admire your work
Code:
parted /dev/block/mmcblk0 print
Reboot into your new recovery and install your favorite ROM

You should probably use the latest TWRP 2.6.3.1 found here: http://techerrata.com/file/twrp2/find5/openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.1-find5.img
Looks good to me. Just be very carefully doing this.
Sent from my Find 5 using xda app-developers app
gdisk -b /sdcard/gpt.bin /dev/block/mmcblk0
those commands need to be typed in recovery even that one ?
Yes although I imagine this particular command should also work when booting system.

This thread is fine the only problem here is with those 2 binaries: mke2fs and tune2fs
You don't need to push them or chmod them since they are already in the recovery
Except that that thread is perfect.
Since we're at toying with partition, can't we merge the partitions in some way ?
Just wondering is there any way to build a script to do this in an automated way thus avoiding user errors and typos?
There is a thread on the oppo forums
http://www.oppoforums.com/threads/guide-resizing-internal-storage-on-find-5-32gb.8361/
Hello everyone,
is the guide for the 32 or 16 gb model?
I have 16 gb Oppo find 5.
Thanks.

Hi all, I am trying to do this mod and I am half way through it with a problem
I am stuck on the new file system, I cannot use mke2fs or tune2fs, i get
Code:
mke2fs: not found
like it doesn't even exist, but it does I can see it. I get the same error for tune2fs. but parted and gdisk work fine.
Yes I did push them and chmod 755 them.. and I have tried running it from the /sbin directory.
Help!
Hello!
I'm getting the same error over and over again creating /dev/block/mmcblk0p21 to /dev/block/mmcblk0p22:
tune2fs -c 0 -i -1 -C -1 /dev/block/mmcblk0p21
"Bad magic number in super-block while trying to open /dev/block/mmcblk0p21"
"Couldn't find valid filesystem superblock"
So i can't create a file system on the created partitions. I have been looking everywhere for an answer. Somebody have an idea?
U should just wait. Andrew dodd found a way to make find7a have unified partition and he claims he can make it work on find5 as well. Let's give him a bit to figure it out tho.
Scribed henceforth from thy G pad.
Gdisk not working...
Ok guys sort of a noob here... Firstly, totally appreciate what you guys are doing here... I wants it bad, thass why i'm here.
So far... I have i have done...
"adb reboot recovery"
"adb push gdisk /sbin"
I figured that's how you are supposed to install it ... hope i'm not wrong, but i guess it pushed through fine
But after rebooting to system in TWRP , i opened terminal emulator and when i use the command
"gdisk -b /sdcard/gpt.bin /dev/block/mmcblk0"
I get ...
"/system/bin/sh: gdisk: not found"
now i'm too scared to proceed without backing up the partition tables... so please help...
edit - FYI , i'm running the last build of Asylum Carbon... should i just go back to latest oopo stable stock rom and then root my device again and then try all this again... would that help... ???
Directly from Andrew Dodds g+ " IT HAS BEGUN.
The first phase of Find 7a/7s LVM testing is here.* See linked post for details.* (Sorry to disappoint, but the first phase is "make sure we don't break existing configurations")
Once this phase is complete, the remaining list is:
Fix up the remaining TWRP issues (make RECOVERY_SDCARD_ON_DATA runtime instead of compile-time)
Make user-friendly conversion processes
Once things are solid on Find 7, I'll work on Find 5 and N1."
Stay thirsty my friends. Good things ahead

Does this work for the 16gb model?
Can someone help please?
I'm trying to do this, but after enter in parted [parted /dev/block/mmcblk0] when i try to do "rm 29", i get "can't remove 29: no such file or directory
I'm doing the "on your phone" commands in TWRP command line., is that correct?
I'm running stable colorOS 1.0.9i
Finally I finish the process.
My notes:
Goal:
Keep my current system intact (stable colorOS 1.0.9i , because i have no patience to format, install a new ROM and reinstall/recofigure everything
So I backup everything on phone with TWRP and I push sdcard content (wich include the system backup i made) with ADB
1 - If I push mke2fs and tune2fs IT WILL NOT WORK. I flash the last find 5 recovery (openrecovery-twrp-2.8.1.0-find5.img) and I dont push or chmod anyting, parted, mke2fs, tune2fs are all already in the recover and that's the only way I could run mke2fs and tune2fs
edit: 1.5 - The phone commands had to be enter via ADB shell. In TWRP command line, after you enter in parted it will not accept commands.
2 - To "rm 29", i had to "umount /dev/block/mmcblk0", otherwise "rm 29" fail due to partition in use
3 - after this instruction:
mount -t vfat /dev/block/mmcblk0p29 /sdcard
(the last one on the 4 block of code)
We have this:
# Restore /persist partition
mount -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p29 /sdcard
This instruction was the only one that give me a error, so I move to the next ones.
The error was that the partition was busy, what makes senses because in the last instruction we mount the same partition on the same folder but with different file system!!??
So I move to the next instruction. I have no idea if it's a instructions mistake but it looks like, because it says "# Restore /persist partition" but the command has nothing to do with /persist
4 - FINISH
5 - Reboot in recovery. Push sdcard backup to /sdcard. restore system backup with TWRP restore
Voila, my phone exactly as before but with 3,76GB for APPS. Finally!!! The "running out of space" message on a flagship quad-core 2GB RAM phone!!!!!!?????? Was driving me CRAZYYYYY
Thanks Fickx for the up to date information, I just did my re-partition successfully, here's what I did:
- Use Rashr update the recovery to twrp-2.8.1.0
- reboot into recovery
- connect to PC (Make sure adb works, "adb devices")
- on PC:

Flash the rom.
Since the gapps for 4.4 need very much space wee need bigger system partitions.
I've created a script which automates this process and increases them both to 840MB.
the space is taken from the userdata partition.
You should backup your whole phone before doing this(storage will not be touched but you shouldn't take the risk)
I tested it with 32GB version only so if you want to know if it will work for 16gb, too give me the output of this command:
parted -s /dev/block/mmcblk0 print
Download:
http://d-h.st/FWz
Instructions:
1) boot into CWM
2) adb push repartition.sh /tmp
3) adb shell chmod 0777 /tmp/repartition.sh
4) adb shell /tmp/repartition.sh
5) adb reboot recovery
6) now you can do all the usual stuff like enabling TDB and installing ROM's
Sounds great but I cannot test it, since I dont have any parted binaries (at least in my 4.1.1 Wajk Wiui ROM) ? Can you please tell me where I can get them.
Second Question:
Im currently running TDB:
System 1 latest WIUI 4.1.1 v5 ROM
System 2 MIUI v6 1.9.19
Both system partitions are completely full (usage 98 %) and the same with the data partitions ( usage 97 % )!
Would it be possible to decrease /sdcard space and repartition it like the following with TDB enabled:
system 800 mb
system1 800 mb
data 1500 mb
data1 1500 mb
sdcard *the rest*
thanks in advance
sounds like you tried to repartition from Android
You need to boot to CWM - you have parted there.
Sorry I hate people who just ask stupid questions before reading the instructions carefully ...silly me sorry for that...
What about the second question, is it possible to either increase the data partitions for less space on /sdcard ?
there isn't sth. like a data1 partition. we have one data partition only that's why we need the TDB hack.
other than that it's possible but you should backup all your data and restore it afterwards.

already did full backup of sdcard, i just dont know if i should disable TDB before i stat repartitioning ... I dont know how TDB works to split the data partition thats my problem :/
yes that should work.
You don't need to disable TDB because your whole data partition will be wiped and it stores the TDB configuration(that means that TDB automatically gets disabled).
Had some errors but now its working fine ..thanks
unmount sdcard in CWM. It's a bug of this script.
Nice to hear it works now.

Hello
First do not panic is not the fault of your script but for you experience with mi2s and partitions are the few people in the world that can save my phone.

For those using a single MIUI ROM I've made a partition table with system1 set to 1024Mb.
Run the attached from CWM (in /tmp).

Can you explain a little more? Does it only leave 1 system partition? Can I flash it like a regular zip?
Enviado desde mi MI 2S mediante Tapatalk
any step by step manual how to change partition? with all necessary downloads etc...
or.... is it possible to delete system2 with all its parts? - for me I'd to use system1 only
Why can not I change the size of the system partition?
Already tried several times, with disabled TDB and with enabled TDB.
Full wipe did and still no result.
P.S. I have already been able to do any repartitioning.

PS C:\Android> adb reboot recovery
PS C:\Android>
UPD. The problem was that I was using Windows Povershell
Run the script from the command line and everything turned out.
Thanks!
I have to format first system and system1 in recovery to apply this script, because I have and error :
tmp/repartition.sh lin 115 can´t create /sdcard/parted_12_06_2014_FDFD6F4CB043F4956D9CAD053C3738AA.
DO MOUNT your SDCARD
then Follow the instruction
duhh...
I modified the script a little bit for 1 ROM usage. System1 is 840MB as in the original and System2 is 5MB. The rest goes into userdata. This is for the 16GB version.
Ok! I did again and umount the sdcard abd it worked fine.
Thanks
I found a better way
If u reboot into dload mode, u can change the partition table from your computer
The problem is that most partition managers don't support changing the GPT Partition names and that's why I added support for that to GParted.
GParted supports booting from Live CD/USB so Windows/Mac users aren't left out.
http://i.imgur.com/3SwSXs2.png
I pushed the patch to GParted repo's and I'll inform u once there're any news.
from my point of view the best way for use is:
- system (system1) - let 1024 MB
- system1 (system2) - let 10 MB
- userdata (apps) - let 4096 MB (take it from sdcard) - but maybe more
Hi there,
I Modified M1cha's repartition script in order to remove dualboot and get more space for my 16gb mi2 and now /storage/sdcard0 is unwritable
this is what i changed from michas original script as i think this was the only thing to change:
Code:
ui_print "parted: create"
parted -s /dev/block/mmcblk0 mkpartfs primary ext2 336MB 886MB || return 1
parted -s /dev/block/mmcblk0 mkpartfs primary ext2 886MB 896MB || return 1
parted -s /dev/block/mmcblk0 mkpartfs primary ext2 896MB 1171MB || return 1
parted -s /dev/block/mmcblk0 mkpartfs primary ext2 1171MB 5570MB || return 1
First time runs ok and i can install the rom ok but as i said, i was unable to write, download, or do anything with sdcard0
when i try to run the original script this is what i get:
Code:
sudo adb push Escritorio/repartition.sh /tmp/
1 KB/s (3027 bytes in 2.124s)

i don't know but in my poor knowledge of shell scripting seems like its ok what i did... any help from the experts, micha,linuxxx, or xperian would be great! :good:

Reboot into recovery and run commands from script manually,that way you can know what got wrong and easily fix problem.
Example:
parted -s /dev/block/mmcblk0 print // prints correct partition table
parted -s /dev/block/mmcblk0 rm 23 // deletes partition,in this case /system
parted -s /dev/block/mmcblk0 mkpartfs primary ext2 336MB 1236MB // creates partition
parted -s /dev/block/mmcblk0 name 23 system // names partition

For more details check repartition.sh
I think i finally figured what's going on. Seems /mnt/sdcard haven't got write permission to group and others so, as I don't know which group am I (even what is my username ) I put write permissions to others and seems now its working...
Its weird.. [emoji17]
Hi again,
Im trying now to encrypt the phone with the partition table mentioned before, but its no working. I tryed to investigate a litle but the nearest post to mine its this: http://forum.cyanogenmod.org/topic/82292-cm102-encryption-does-not-start-stuck-at-splash-screen. i tryed this in two different ROMs and happens the same... so must be a parititon issue.
The thing is i don't get the point... My userdata partition is not big enought? too many / not enought blocks?
any tips would be great :fingers-crossed:
cheers
