hello mate, i love my htc pico but one problem the device only have 90mb internal memory ,so im using this script it will make your internal memory bigger. read first, im not warranty your device please do with your own risks ! backup your files before using this script. No noob please :silly:.
Requirements :
Htc Pico / Explorer (Your phone had been rooted and busybox)
A stock/custom rom which busybox run-parts and free from a2sd,s2e,link2sd etc. (remove this script if you found in your rom)
Kernel support EXT partition.
A Partition Sdcard (im using 16 Gb with 14GB (Fat32) and 2GB (EXT4)).
Internet Connection
Usb
File Manager or Root Explorer
Installation :
1. Goto recovery and wipe data & wipe cache, and then reboot. (it can remove all files in internal storage, backup your data before wipe !)
2. Download the attachment, put and extract to microsd.
3. Cut or copy files 02ungaze_init -> /system/etc/init.d ,busybox_d2sd -> /system/xbin, and e2fsck -> /system/bin
4. Now you must change the permission this files like this :
02Ungaze_init :

}
busybox_d2sd :
e2fsck :
6.Done !, reboot your phone ..
Here my screenshot before and after using ungaze , look at internal memory :angel::
Before :
after using ungaze :
Tested : Nextgen ROM, Microsd 16 GB class 10 up to write 30mb/sec and read 12mb/sec.

hmmm i cant explain because im not using another script, im just using mount2sd (just delete the script from directory /system/etc/init.d) and install ungaze script.
S2E = return the data and dalvik cache to internal memory, delete S2E.apk from directory /system/app and then install ungaze script

I would be interested to try this, but I am a bit scared of getting bootloops. There seem to have been a few reports of that already, so maybe I would be better to go for another, more tested script?
I am currently on stock ROM with stock kernel, rooted and using link2SD with a 2nd FAT32 partition. What would I need to do to transfer everything across? (I assume install a new kernel [which one?] and create a new ext partition; how would I go about moving all the apps currently on my FAT32 partition [and their data, which is on the internal memory] to the ext partition?)

Very important: note 0:make a nandroid backup.
First backup sdcard,backup all your apps with titanium backup,delete all apps except the essentials,then move the essentials to internal memory,format sdcard and then partition your sdcard through clockworkmod recovery(advanced»partition),then install the script and then go to recovery and then install new kernel like cranium kernel #2 ,if you want to be on stock
Or else after partition directly go to jaggy ROM or cm9 flash and then install the script(delete all other script in system/etc/init.d)
And then finally,if no bootloops enjoy! Or else just do a nandroid restore-bootloops are not a big deal,if you can go to recovery and have a nandroid backup.
Always wipe data partition or factory reset in recovery for installing the script or ROM

REQUIRE download directory in /cache partition
Hi to everyone,
i'm new in this section i buy today my i9003,
the first problem i encounter when install CM7 is not enought space free when i install app from market , this is my solution without formating cache or anything else
Code:
import com.peaple.disclaimer
i am not responsible for any damage on your phone, Libia war or dead SDCards
Required:
Human brain
Terminal into phone
Rooted
where's the problem?
Market ( Vending.apk ) Download the Temp apk into /cache partition under download directory , but its very small, you can symlink /cache/download to your internal SD to resolve all problem
Solution:
For first determine who create the directorys, what's my internal sdcard?
- if you use codeworkx's kernel it's mounted on /emmc ( or /mnt/emmc )
- if you use Official ROM or XXK* based its /sdcard ( or /mnt/sdcard )
(replace /emmc with /sdcard if you use XXK* Firmware )
Create dir , using File manager in your INTERNAL SDCARD not follow external_sd symlink, create cache directory, and into cache directory create market
Open your terminal, enter su
Allow Superuser request
enter into terminal this command:
Code:
cd /cache
rm -R download
ln -s /emmc/cache/market download
finish!
Offtopic, i'll very help this phone with CM7, it's beatiful phone and needed beatiful android!
Bye

I don't see that in the instructions. meaning, once you use su permissions to direct the market to use your newly created folder in the sd card, which should be able to hold lots more temporary data (based on free space) than the originally intended cache for market downloads, there will be no more "not enough free space" errors. download something big, reset your phone, then download something big again. test it and find out
edit: falex beat me
falex, so clearing cache will clear the instruction from the system's commands?

in the instruction we should:
1. remove "download" directory from cache partition
2. create "download" directory in the sdcard
3. create symlink in the cache partition to the created directory
4. clearing the cache just format cache partition (of course formatting will remove everything from cache partition, and out symlink too)
To restore symlink we just should remove "download" directory from cache partition and create symlink (we already have "download" directory on the sdcard)

Sure, i doesn't have big knowledge about driver and hardware, but i will learn and i had a lot knowledge about linux, kernel compiling, c, c++ and in last time java by school ,time a go i recompile cm7 for Acer Liquid s100 ( another cm unsupported phone ) but nothing to special...
theoretically the only differences between Android and Gentoo or another linux distro is Kernel compiled for arm arch, and build-in driver ( or modules ) if i not mistake
Kernel = C
Lower Level = C++
User App and another app = Java
but i dont think i have knowledge to do this
i can be tester ^^

after this steps , is hard to get another like error , this is permanent fix it's reset only by formatting cache partition, this is our cache partition:
Code:
Filesystem/mount/dev 1K-blocks Used Free Us
3% /cache /dev/block/mmcb1k0p3 1935128 187680 1747448 1
if your format it by recovery, you need to resymlink again

But when I typed "rm -R download" the terminal emulator trow out a error message. "No such file or directory." (or something like that) What's wrong?

Are u in /cache directory when type rm -R download ?
Have you root privileges ? ( just type su )
What firmware do u use?
What market version do u use?
It didn't work because if u not remove old directory , u cant create symlink to sdcard ^^

As my signature suggests I am using a rooted Cranium ROM 3.1 (XXKPH)
The market is version 3.3.11 from here.
Shall I try to move the whole "/cache" folder to "/sdcard/cache" and after that create symlink at root "/"?

This is why the code fails... There is no DOWNLOAD folder in the cache directory. (atleast for us that is, I'm using stock xxkpm with a few scripts btw). Market downloads go directly to the cache folder and not in any other folder/subfolder.
I'm sure your not suppose to remove the cache folder. But why is there a need to remove the DOWNLOAD folder even if it existed? (Sorry, just learning linux) Couldn't we just proceed with linking the cache folder to the sdcard cache?
Correct me if I'm wrong: This is what u enter next after typing "su"
ln -s /sdcard/cache/market cache
I simply tried it out.
Deleting / moving cache folder does not work and so also creating a symlink fails. I also tried to symlink the "downloadfile.apk", since it seemed that this is the temporary file that gets created. I noticed that the icon was the icon of "Font Installer" which was the last app I had downloaded. But when I tried to download the 30MB app my symlink was killed and the market throw out the same error as before.
I'm so sorry, in my xxkph market download apk temp file in /cache/download, i think xxkpm is as directory as xxkph...

u can not remove /cache directory because everytime u boot system, in cache directory are mount cache partition, i dont know any solution for now, this night i ll download stock xxkpm i'll try
Anyway with MIUI , market version: 3.1.5 there is download directory under /cache , what's your market version? ^^
ok, i found where 's the problem:
i've install XXKPH stock with OLD MARKET
this is problem produce by 2.x market download apk file into /cache instead /cache/download
the only solution is update your market at least 3.1.x
EDIT1: Ok in some cases also update market it continue to download to /cache , i dont know solution , any cases if u have download directory , its ok
I tried 3.1.5, 3.2, 3.3.11 and they all don't have DOWNLOAD folder.
I also tried old market but it auto updates to 3.1.5.
Right now I just installed market 2.3.6 (according to titanium backup) from superteekz1.1 rom.
I used this rom before and extracted the market and it does not update to the newer version. Attached the vending.apk if u wanna use it.
The best feature is that u can install more than 30 mb of app from the market:
Also it doesn't use the have the downloadfile.apk file in /cache. So it doesn't use /cache? Any ideas or explanation?
I'd want to test in t but it crash...
I think it download it into data, but I'm insure

Your right, i found a 28mb downloadfile.apk inside /data/cache. Smaller download files still end up in /cache though.
So the old market seems to perform better at downloading larger market apps... why didn't they implement this in the new version? Maybe because newer phones are expected to have a larger cache?
Btw, if it's a factor, I forgot to mention that my rom is deodexed and the market app from superteekz rom was also deodexed. (sorry, don't know the compatibilities of deodexed and odexed roms and apps)

hello.i open this thread to show you how to solve a2sd not working on custom roms so you people can use your favorite rom with all the features and rom developers can continue developing of their rom and make them more and more better.
First of all the reason why a2sd dont work and ext partition doesnt mount:
for these feautures and others that dev gives as with his rom,the kernel ramdisk is modified (by xda kitchen or "by hand").so if this boot.img is not flashed into your phone,those feautures wont work.every custom rom have her boot.img into the flashable rom.zip.the thing that our rom creators and devs dont know(cause all phones are not the same) is that the boot.img in the zip doesn flash!.our phone cant flash boot.img from recovery and the reason is because in this phone kernel and recovery are in the same partition and not separately partition like most phones.
The solution:
REMEMBER THAT YOU DO IT WITH YOUR OWN RISK!
its just very simple:the only thing you have to do is to flash the boot.img that comes with your rom and the only way to do that succesfull is with Odin.(this ofcourse will give the custom bin counter 1 up because its a modified and not stock kernel).also have in mind that you have to flash it once.if for any reason you want to reflash your rom,you just do wipe data etc and reflashing the rom.zip.its not necesary to reflash the kernel(boot.img) again.its still there and will only change if you flash another boot.img or stock firmware with Odin.
So i will give two options.
1.download my PDA_S5360_kernel.tar from TermaRomGR threadhttp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1520167(the mods in all of these kernel are about the same).flash it with Odin in pda field (first try without wipe anything or reflashing stock firmware first.just boot in download mode,flash with odin and reboot,it should work ok.DONT FORGET TO BACKUP YOUR ROM FIRST!JUST IN CASE!).reboot may take more time dont worry.when phone is on your ext partition should be mounted.you can try with terminal simulator:
su
a2sd check
if everything is ok you can remove your dalvik cache to your sd if you want for more internal memory free space:
su
a2sd cachesd
the phone will reboot.it will late to reopen just be patient and then your internal memory will be almost empty.but have in mind that this partition is not as fast asthe internal memory so some apps or games maybe slow a bit.
2.the other option is to flash the kernel(boot.img) that come with your custom rom.how to do that (thanks to Doky):
copy the boot.img that is inside the zip of the rom you are using.
download my PDA_S5360_kernel.tar
find in web the program total commander for windows
open t commander and in left window navigate to my PDA_S5360_kernel.tar file and get into it.in the right window find the boot.img of your rom.drag it and drop it to the left window so it replace the boot.img into the .tar file with yours.its ready.just flash it with Odin.
Some important things too that i notice from my experiments:
with busybox 1.18 your rom will not boot after nove dalvik cache to sd
it will work nice with 1.17 but its not suitable for people who want to run v6 script.for those who want to run v6 you must download busybox instaler from market and install v1.19.2.if after that you have problems with wifi try another version (1.19.3 or 1.19.4).and report back what works ok and what not so all people together can find the best setup.
Please tell to the devs of your roms to read this thread so they learn about the solution to this problem so they can create even better and better roms
I love you. I'll try this tomorrow.

Why do i have SD Card Remove Problem then when i boot back i was in the Welcome Screen where my info of google account is being ask. I skipped it then check the settings, my account was just there still. Also having this Turning off by itself problems. This was just started when i begin using a2sd supported ROMS. But when i'm just on stock or non-a2sd roms it work fine. Maybe its the boot.img?

Oh, so I can take a stock firmware from Doky73's thread and modify it thru xda kitchen and change the kernel to include just init.d support (I kind of hate a2sd at the moment)? What about ext4 file system support? Is this possible?
By xda kitchen you mean the one by dsixda, right?
just like to ask if a2sd's low memory setting would conflict with [email protected] scripts?
coz after installing a2sd in my phone with [email protected] script, i sometimes notice that memory usage would reach 240+?

1.yes its necesary to have an ext2 or ext3 partition.you can create it with skin1980 CWM recovery in advance/partition sdcard.a partition 500Mb is enough.(before do it backup everything from your sdcard to your pc because this procedure will erase everything in your sdcard.)
2.for Odin google it Odin3-v1.85.Here is how to do it:
1. you put my tar in pda field and the other remain empty(check only "Auto reboot" and "F.reset time")
2. Now turn off your Samsung Galaxy Y (just for make sure is completely off, remove the battery for a few sec and put that back)

Thanks bro, I have 2 questions more,
before flash your PDA is it necessary to go back to stock rom?
Currently I'm using V6 with busy box v1.18 on hybrid2.1, should I change it to v1.19.2?
Your link for v1.19.2 in terma rom thread is not working.

Welcome to Dual Boot Backup & Restore
A utility app for noob-dev type dual-boot system on Galaxy S4 LTE variants
=================================
DOWNLOAD LATEST VERSION:
>>Dual Boot Backup V2.3a 4/1/14
Release:
Multi Boot Backup & Restore Utilities V4.0
Finally I have combined all operations into a single AROMA zip!
Functions:
-Backup for Secondary, multi-slot-1, multi-slot-2, multi-slot-3
-Restore for Secondary, multi-slot-1, multi-slot-2, multi-slot-3
-Delete backups and delete multiROMs
PLUS!!
You can restore a backup from any slot to any other!
For now you MUST:
-Patch a suitable kernel before hand corresponding to the desired slot.
Rename your backup folder to the desired slot.
Eg.
'/external_sd/dual-boot-bk/dual'
to
'/external_sd/dual-boot-bk/multi-slot-1'
Then run restore and after flash your patched kernel. Note this will also overwrite whichever secondary kernel you have backed up so you may have to flash and set two kernels.
I will improve this function in the next version
Enjoy!!

The Title of this App is pretty self explanatory. Being a user and fan of the Dual Boot mod I decided to expand upon it by creating an app which can:
>>> Backup 2ndROM to your choice of Internal Memory OR external SD card
>>> Backup with your choice of Compression or No compression.
>>> Backup by running the app from Primary OR 2ndROM (Restore only from primary ROM)
>>> Restore 2ndROM backup
=============================
PLANNED FEATURES IN FUTURE VERSIONS:
- Backup Primary ROM
-Restore EITHER Primary or 2ndROM backups to EITHER/OR Primary or 2ndROM locations... allowing you to:
-clone EITHER ROM to both locations
-swap Primary and 2ndROM positions.
=============================
Please refer to the thread for the original Dual Boot mod by @chenxiaolong if you are new to this. This app REQUIRES an understanding of Dual Boot and a working Dual Boot setup

[PATCHER][APP] Dual boot any ROM on all Galaxy S4 variants!
=============================
How it works:
I've used Tasker app factory to make an app with a GUI interface which will execute Linux terminal commands creating .tar or .tar.gz backup files in /dual-boot-bk folder which it will create in either your Internal or external memory.
The restore function will restore the tar files to the required folders.
=============================
How to use:
>>>Backup
#1.Simply install the app on either primary or secondary ROM and run the app.
#2. Tap the backup button and the chose your storage location and compression level.
#3. Wait for the operation to complete!
Your backup will be created in a folder /dual-boot-bk/ in three files:
dualsys.tar
dualdata.tar
dual-kernel.tar
To delete your backup simply delete this folder /dual-boot-bk/ using a file manager.
If you manually move your backup tar files after creating a backup from one location to another (say to your computer hard drive) just be sure to move them back to your phone in a folder named:
/dual-boot-bk/
Before you want to do a restore so the app will detect it. (This folder can be in your internal memory or extrenal SD card).
>>> Restore
You can only restore when running this app from your PRIMARY ROM.
#1. Make sure you have your three backup .tar files in the expected /dual-boot-bk folder on your Internal Memory or external SD Card.
#2. Tap the restore button.
#3. Wait until the operation has completed and you are done!
=============================
>>>IMPORTANT
#1. You CAN restore a backup onto a Primary ROM which has just been clean installed and DOESN'T yet have the necessary dual-boot folders... My app will create them if necessary.
#2. The secondary kernel will be backed up and restored BUT you may not have set your primary ROM kernel using 'dual boot switcher' app my app should detect if this file doesn't exit and warn you to do this.

Sorry I don't understand. You don't have to move anything back.
If you move your backup to say your hard drive then you need to move out back otherwise the backup it makes is in the folder that the app expects

Oh ok I understand now. .. Yes you are correct you should rename the /dual-boot-bk folder to something or move the .tar files to another folder if you wish to make a new backup and keep the old one.
The files in /dual-boot-bk will be overwritten if you run another backup

2.Wipe data/factory reset.
3.Wipe cache partition.
4.Go to advanced
5.Wipe dalvich cache.
6.Go back.
7.Go to mounts and storage

Dont format or touch anything else
9.Go back.
10. Select Install zip from sd card.
11. Select your rom. After install
12. Reboot system now.
13. Done
Original thread is located here: CM11 aka KITKAT 4.4.2
Direct download for RC4 CM11 RC4 with recovery
Direct download for RC3 CM 11 RC3
Direct Download for RC2 : CM11 RC2
Direct Download RC 1 with changelogs: CM11 RC1
Direct Download Beta 5 with changelogs:CM 11 Beta 5
Direct Download Beta 4 with changelogs:CM11 Beta 4
Direct download for new build with changelogs:New Build (GPS still not working)
Now flash the gapps from here : Gapps for cm11
For RC3 and RC4 you need awesome recovery older version.. Have attached the rcovery check the end of the post..
It is a special modified TWRP Recovery known as aw3som3 recovery.. This recovery increases our system partition.
Many users flash the aw3som3 recovery via app but its not a good process as this recovery changes the partition.
How to flash the aw3som3 recovery.
1. First fash THIS via your present recovery.
2. Now copy the downloaded recovery in a folder where adb and fastboot drivers are installed.
3. Connect your device in fastboot mode.
4. Open command prompt and type
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img(If your recovery is named as recoveryv1 then instead of recovery.img type recoveryv1.img)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
5. After succesful recovery flashing, again flash the attachment on first step then flash the rom.
You should freshly install RC1 and New build dont just flash over beta 4 or beta 5
Clean flash RC2
RC1 and New build has enough system memory for the gapps to work..
So no need to delete anything..
Installation instructions for RC2
1. Flash the rom. Remain in recovery.
2. Just after flashing rom flash : This
3. Flash gapps
You wont face any sign in errors..
GPS is not working in RC1.. Some users reported it to be working..
Installation instructions for beta 4 and beta 5 :
There are two methods:
1.Before Install
Open the zip.
Delete following files from rom zip:
term.apk
email.apk
exchange2.apk
browser.apk
cmfilemanger.apk (optional)
Now flash the rom and after first boot of the rom then flash the gapps..
2.After install
1.Open Titanium backup
2.Tap on Backup/restore option (Before uninstall it asks to take backup if you can backup the app then uninstall it)
3.Tap on the apps listed above.
4.Select uninstall
5.Done
If facing sign in error mount your partiton from settings -> extras-> tick on mount /data to /SD ext reboot then manually install Google Play services(Beta 4 and Beta 5 only).
You can find that in gapps zip in system/priv-app named prebuilt GMScore.apk like this..
Make sure your are on latest TWRP or philz or whichever recovery which mounts and supports ext mounting..
Check here for Philz Recovery : Philz Recovery
Check here hor TWRP : TWRP Recovery
Check here for CWM : CWM Recovery
There is no option to enable int2ext in RC2 like previous builds so you need ti flash the script.
If you are a user who doesnt install use or install many apps but want the memory increase:
Just go in settings-> Extras->Tick on /mount /sd ext option->Restart your device.(Not for RC2 as there is no option to enable ext))
If you are using many apps then refer this: (Its int2ext)Script or else you wont be able to download apps from playstore.
The reason for not able to install apps from playstore
The inbuilt script is int2ext+ Which leaves /data to /data (The reason and explanation in detail Check Here)
List of all scripts working check here: Cronmod Scripts
How to copy paste scripts and list of scripts : Check here
If you dont want to do any copy and pasting of scripts just follow this steps:
1. Open the rom zip .. Dont extract
2. Go to system/etc/init.d
3. Now copy the above script in the location given in 2nd step.. It will ask for replace replace it..(Not applicable on RC2)
4. Now flash the rom.
5. Done
You want to oc(Overclocking) refer this: OC kernal for beta 4
OC for beta 5/RC1: OC Kernel for beta 5/RC1 Instagram is not working in this OC Kernel.
OC for RC2 : OC Kernel for RC2
OC for RC4 : OCKernel for RC4
Partition for oc:
SD main-> SD ext (512 mb or more)-> SD cache (65 mb)
All partitions should be primary
SD ext and SD cache partition type should be same.
Ex if SD ext is ext4 then sd cache should also be ext4.
Hit Thanks guys
It will encourage me to make more helpful guides
If facing sign in error install play sevices attached below..

It will work but you need to delete the the script present in system/etc/init.d..
Then install mounts2sd..

You need to delete the script from from rom zip then flash the rom.. the reasonn behind deleting the script is there will 2 scripts in init.d folder one in the rom and other made from m2sd this will lead to a bootloop so before using m2sd you need to delete the inbuilt script first.
via Apache Helicopter
So I need to first delete the m2sd script from zip then flash the rom then install m2sd app and using terminal emulator increase the internal memory right na

thanks buddy but the problem is that i m getting the inbuilt script by default.
I don't activate it but automatically gets called. i did nothing. now i got 200 mb free space but fb is not installing and many other big apps too
and if i change scripts, it will not boot.
this is my experience just after flashing the rom when no apps were there.
also it never got installed over my ics rom, this rom has bugs related to memory scripts, i told the developer too but don't think he's going to do anything.
btw ty for help

The best way I will say is copy the int2ext script in the ROM zip then flash the ROM.. You can check in settings -> app you would see increased memory cz I m using this method and didn't face any issues ..

thanks, i was just doing it... now you had boosted my confidence.
Greetings this is my first post here, so here we go
We all know that This phone has a tiny userdata partition size from the 4Gb Internal Size, about weeks ago i started to make that partition larger by Repartitioning it. So, after read some way from Android One thread, finally i did it, by resized the 3 partitions (system, cache & data) and made the userdata bigger. And now, imade the recovery script to install them easily
MAKE SURE YOU HAVE BACKED UP YOUR INTERNAL STORAGE AS WELLI WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE IF YOUR PHONE DIESPROCEED AT YOUR OWN RISKIF YOU MESS UP, USE FLASH TOOLS TO FLASH ROM AND FIX ALL PROBLEM
I made them by 3 Different Size, cause some ROM have different size and use way different size of System partition, so choose one of them that fit with the rom that you are about to flash after it Some zip make some ROM cannot be flashed via fastboot mode (e..g Lineage OS can only installed via fastboot when u are using stock or the third preset)
1. 760Mb System // 100Mb cache // 2,7Gb+ Userdata (Fit for any CM11 based Rom, Pico-Gapps, and some System Customization)

Instruction to Install:
- Download the parted_binary_arm.zip and one of the repartition zip in the Attachment based on your choice
- Backup your data and internal sdcard as well (cause everything inside it will be destroyed!)
- Install the parted_binary_arm.zip first, then
- Install the Repartition zip file
- Then it will automatically reboot to recovery
- If you see some red lines in the TWRP logs (which happens sometime) just reformat system, cache and data partition by using the wipe option in the TWRP. (you can format it to any desired format as well. For e.g f2fs, ext4 and make sure the rom you will going to install is support those filesystem)
- And then to make sure everything is fine, reboot your phone to recovery once more and try to mount these partitions and look at the size
- After that, just flash the new ROM that fit with your system partition size and boot your phone as well

I am not sure, but you can try the 2.2gb internal repartion and take backup the /system of your lineage rom via backup option of your twrp before installing the repartition (Make sure you change the backup location to your external sdcard). And then restore it after finish the repartition
is that just for D2202??

It is meant for any 22xx. (2203, 2243, 2202, 2212 and 2206) I made a modification on @elmaleek03 script. It has a new scheme that is good for me. It has 2.5GB on /data, 1GB on /system and 50MB on /cache (cache cannot be shrinked more )
Original script by @forumber2 and modifications by @elmaleek03 (on OP)
and another mod by @jpzex (attached file)
EDIT: Just found that LineageOS didn't flash with 1GB on /system only. Do not use it if you want to use Lineage. It may be okay if you use CM11
Running in 2203, perfect !! Thank you!!!

Cool! U are learned the script well thx for ur participation should i add ur 2.5gb preset to the op?
Yeah, the lineage os only can flashed with stock / original (unmodified) internal partition scheme unless thomas share the flashable zip of lineageos for our device so we won't need using fastboot again for install the lineage

NOTICE: Only "/system" partition needs to have its original size, for now. "/cache" can be shrinked to give its space to "/data". Probably on later builds it may change. The team is working on it. The goal is to use a 1,4GB "/system" partition and the rest is for "/cache" with 50MB and "/data" with 2.0GB.
Can you explain the procedure very clear.. Because im confused after flashing the zip files...i dont know what.is next?..
.
After installing the zip file
Reflash the stock rom via falshtool or just reboot after flashing the zip file...
And how to do the mounting thing in TWRP
.
So confused

Repartition revert script
Hello guys! I made a repartition revert script thanks to GGonDue , @elmaleek03 and @forumber2. It may revert partition sizes to factory defaults. It must be used according to the OP post by @elmaleek03, you download parted-binary-arm.zip and then use the attached zip later.
Remember, it wipes /data, /cache and /system. You WILL need to restore from a backup or install a ROM afterwards.

Which ROM is stable for now on Sony Xperia E3 D2203????
Admin, Can't you make the system to be 1GB and increase the userdata?
because am using 4.4 stock ROM, and my system is almost 1GB.

Camera works
If you can't find, I have a link to it. Good luck

There is one experimental repartition I made to use on my phone on CM11 ROM, as it is not that big, lots of space can be given to /data. But you can only use /data and /cache as ext4, f2fs cannot partition /cache because it is too small for it. Flashable is atrached.
Scheme is:
936MB /system
48MB /cache
2887MB /data
