I open this thread because I never found any proper solution for mtk6575 repartition, it's little different from other mtk phones.you have to edit the mbr file for increasing internal storage and also the scatter file...here i share a zip file it's not my work....file is moded by jassonrr for micromax a90 I used it on my clone note2 mtk 6575 and it's working for me..it's for 4gb rom you get 1.97gb internal and 571mbu on SD card.
First of all do a cwm backup and also you need a working flash tool backup, make it sure this thing.
now select scatter file give in the zip using sp flash tool and try to flash only mbr ebr1 and ebr2.if it works for you than go to cwm recovery wipe data factory reset,restore your backup..wipe cache partition and dalvic cache.reboot your phone format SD card...you will see your internal storage increase in settings.
Now come to the tough part if above steps is not working for you.....at first open your scatter file and given scatter file match all the value except user data and fat partition,also in the given scatter file it's replace the android name with gionee so it's not a problem be sure just values are same.
If everything ok than replace the value of user data and fat partition from given scatter to your scatter file....now open sp flashtool format your phone except bootloader....now select the modified scatter file and flash the full rom with given mbr ebr1 ebr2....after complete the flash go to cwm recovery wipe data factory reset...restore your backup wipe cache partition and dalvic cache,reboot phone and format SD....you will find your new internal storage in settings....
Do it with your own risk.. I am not responsible if any thing happen to your phone.
Bugs: you cannot see your external SD from cwm recovery.

make your own stable baseline, especially with cwm-based recovery
boot as per normal
copy MTK6575_2gb_for apps_512_internal memory.zip from to ext sdcard
Boot to recovery, which is cwm-ported if based on the baseline,
Prepare cwm backup in ext sdcard
install update from zip
MTK6575_2gb_for apps_512_internal memory.zip by those MTK gods - angelobiz
it basically have scripts that update the MBR (the key in MTK6575).
Usually other MTK devices need to modify EBR1 and 2
but this is not applicable for most MTK6575 models,
you will just hang at boot or dead if you try modifying EBRs
it ended perfectly by formating the usr_data and fat partition.
then restore your cwm backup
where it will fill up back your whatever baseline to the new space
boot as per normal
PROFIT!!!!
testing now
i wanted to partition my ram and went to clockwork recovery v6.0.4.6 and selected advance but it didnt showed partition option..
Hi, thank you for using XDA Assist. There is no partition option in custom recoveries. I strongly advise you not to try to partition your ram. It's not necessary. Android has many partitions that make up the system. Unless you're very savvy on Android partitions you will permanently brick your device.
Hello,everyone.These days I'm trying to port twrp recovery to my device,but it occured that this recovery need at least about 16 MB free space in the recovery parition which my vender left me only 6 MB space.(눈_눈)
I tried to use the fdisk comand in terminal emulator,to edit the android-scatter.txt in the usb flash package,or to edit the mbr and ebr file,but all these did nothing but turned my device into a brick.
Is there any solutions?Is it possible to put the recovery in data parition and lauch it?
Thanks for help.
there are some specs:
Phone model:TCL Y910(also called Alcatel Onetouch Hero)
ROM:16GB
CPU:MTK MT6589T
you have to delete system apps to increase system partition size...

Click to expand...

Thanks all the same,but it's a problem of recovery partition rather than system partition.ヾ(^。^*)
How do I resize system partition from 1gb to 2gb on my 32gb nexus 5 with the help of twrp recovery ?
How can I increase the system partition size? I was trying to install dotOs which has a size of around 4 gbs, whereas the system partition has a size of about 3.5 gb. I've tried wiping, and resizing but doesn't help. Is it even possible?
