Save space by moving apps to system partition? - Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm on a small rom, so I've have extra fee space on the system partition. I was considering moving some apps over to system. What happens when a new version comes out and I update the app, will it install on the system partition too?

Put system apps on internal app partition

Hi !
I've made a search but I've found nothing about that. Maybe I don't use the good term...
I'm currently trying to build a ROM for a tablet device (kyros mid 8127) but this model have a really limited system partition of 180mb. It's really small considering porting serious ROM or even just install gapps in system apps...
On the other hand, the app storage partition is far enough for me with its 700mb approximatly.
First, I though to change the mtd partitions. But this is to scary for me as there is no pre-made solution for this model and I don't want to brick my device ^^
So, I'm wondering if it's possible to store system apps on app partition instead of system partition ?
Don't know if this is really possible, but do you guys think I could extract the /system/app folder somewhere on internal app storage partition during ROM installation and symlink the /system/app folder to this place ?
data/app
Swyped on my blade
Yes, data/app is a solution for secondary apps. But I need to move all system apps to free space for framework etc... I've read that all system app can't be moved to data/app cause they'll not work properly from there.
So I'm wondering if we can trick the system just by symlinking system/app to an other location.

[Q] Link2sd: data partition full at startup - slow boot

Hi.
I recently installed on a stock v20g Optimus One, rooted, link2sd.
I've got roughly 100Mb free on the data partition, the sd-ext, an ext2, is filled for 1,26Gb.
However, currently my O1 takes 5 minutes to boot. After it's done, for other 5-6 it keeps telling me the data partition is full, and that I've got to delete applications to reclaim some free space.
After then, link2sd seems to reclaim the empty space, and my data partition becomes empty again.
Is link2sd supposed to perform like that, or there's a method to make it see the correct memory occupation since boot?

Question Resizing System Partition?

Hi all...
Just wandering if anyone new how to resize the system partition of a galaxy a53?
Need to make it larger to fit files onto it but not able to delete bloatware or anything for some reason using all the recommended processes. And to be honest having larger system partition would probably just be useful anyway.
My phone is rooted. I'm not fussed about having to refresh ect. And I have TWRP flashed and Stock Rom.
Please help lol
TWRP should automatically resize your system partition.
When you're installing the ROM, make sure you format /data then /system before installing.
It does, but i want to make the partition larger so i can add files to the system partition once the rom is flashed and phone is set up to be used.
At the moment it say 6GB partition and only the rom fits onto the partition and there isnt any room to add extra files. so im looking to make the partition say 10GB to give myself some wiggle room to play with.
i Have 128GB in total so can spare some extra GB's lol
