pierg75 - So I am trying to figure out where/how you got this information. I understand that the first section of code is simply from the script. I'm curious as to where you found the other information?

I haven't re-partitioned yet because I'm concerned about bricking. One thing that I've gathered from reading elsewhere (mostly here on XDA but also web) is that you need to know which mmcblk part to edit, as well as the gid and uid. What do you know about this?

Do you know if it is the first line of the script that I mainly want to increase in size? (Like I said earlier, I'm relatively new to linux, but familiar with CL from mac.) Where did you find the additional information? I've tried numerous ways to see the other partition data; any tips? Does the 10gb partition thus shrink by changing the other sections from the script? I've been searching all over the place for information on how to re-partition the internal sd as we were talking about on, and doing it on linux, but have been coming out dramatically short. It's either partial information or for a PC. If you have any further help, it's much appreciated. Thanks much.

[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] chalimoja:
Simply go to recovery and format the internal memory. Thats what I did.

And does anyone know how to convert/switch internal memory to external memory on Mokee ROM. It simple on the default Nubia ROM but cant seem to do it on the Custom ROMs. Any ideas?
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] voetbalremco:
It was a bit of a risk, formatting it but went nice, now it works.

I hope the app spaces are now better divided, however the best thing would be to resize the whole internal sd as data partition and use the extrernal for further data, as having 2 is annoying.

I wonder if the software on the phone can handle that, and wich size do you need to select in the script? Like 12.6gb or so...

Also, making the external sd act as internal should be possible then
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] Leo_83:
Okay I need to get myself a SD card so I can do the partitioning... I'm still lacking clear instructions on how to do it as well tho

Btw what class SD card do you guys have?
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] rayures:
i agree, would be a very elegant solution
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] voetbalremco:
Im gonna try something like that, but it neefs to be completely gone after that, and not be detected as an sd card without space or no space left, as I dont like the idea of having 2 sd cards.
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] chalimoja:
Am using a SanDisk 64Gb class 10 card. What don't you get from the instructions? Only problem I had was the program didnt work with the TWRP posted in this thread so i had to use the CMW i found over at needrom, which worked perfectly. Then I reverted back to TWRP once i was done with the partitioning
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] pedrud:
I'm using a similar card. The sandisk extreme pro 64gb, class 10. I've had bad luck with sandisk in the past; but, so far no problems. I'm taking it slowly though; just got the phone about two months ago and only have about 8gb of data on the card.

chalimoja, did you use the PC program for partitioning that was posted a few pages back? If so, did you use the English or Chinese version? I only ask because I translated the English version and wanted to make sure everything was ok. I don't have access to a PC where I could test it. I'm still trying to find clear instructions on how to re-partition on linux.
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] Leo_83:
Oh yeah forgot about the pc program, was that instead of the original post by yiphoming?

It sucks that you need a SD card to do the partitioning, it kinda defeats the purpose for me. If I buy a card I really don't need to do the partitioning.

Edit: might be able to loan a memory card from an other phone, does the SD card get wiped when partitioning?
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] chalimoja:
I downloaded both the English and Chinese version and they both work OK. Only problem with the English version is the options that you have to choose have their numbers (1,2,3,q) looking distorted so might be hard for some to understand. Don't know about using Linux, I find Terminal alittle intimidating although I use as laptop with Ubuntu. I think you'd be better of just looking for a Windows PC to do the partition just to avoid any issues, I found it to be so simple.

I have had my 64Gb card filled up with over 60Gb of data and have had no issue with it although am now back down to around 30Gb (Mostly Audios and some videos)
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] pedrud:
No, the external sd card does not get wiped in the repartioning. If you use the tool and instructions from iphoming (or the English one I translated) on a pc, it actually uses the external sd card during the back up process.

---------- Post added at 08:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:09 PM ----------

Thanks for the feedback. I'll have to take a look at it and see what the issue is with the options.
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] Leo_83:
How much would be needed on the sd card to do the back process?
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] pedrud:
I don't know for sure, but my guess is about 3gb. Currently when I do a CWM backup it's about 2.5gb and I believe that does a bit more.
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] Leo_83:
Oh so it is a phone backup. What if I use CWM backup before, move the backup to the computer and then back again once I done the partitioning? Do I have to do the backup? If no, I don't need a SD card.
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] pedrud:
Thanks to [MENTION=3558479]chalimoja[/MENTION] for noticing some issues with the English text in the PC based partitioning tool. In going back to fix the errors, I found a fairly big error in the script. It has now been fixed. Here is the link to the new one. If you used the previous version, as long as you chose option 1 or 2, you are fine; there were no issues. The link for the file in my previous post will no longer work as I have removed the file.

---------- Post added at 09:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:04 PM ----------

Based off of what the script looks like, no, you don't technically have to do the backup through the script. Which in turn means you technically don't have to have an external sd card. In theory (only do so at your own risk - I claim no responsibility), the way the script is written, if you first did the CWM backup like you say (move it to PC before using partition tool) and then chose option 2 in the partition tool it will just format and repartition. After that is complete, in theory you should then be able to move the backup from the PC back to the phone and reboot in CWM and perform the backup.
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] voetbalremco:
Theres also backup of partitions before formatting, these will be saved on your sd card aswell but are low in size.

I dont know where they will be saved if you dont have a sd card inserted
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] pedrud:
I wondered if that might happen. However, if you open the zip archive and look at the script, it only does that if you choose option 1. If you choose option 2, it does not seem like it backs up the partition data.
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] pierg75:
You can find these in /proc/partitions and "mount" output.

I guess that partition should be resized as well, but I still to look abit further about that.

In any case, it should be possible to save the original partitioning just to go back to that in case.

Note that android is a bit different than a usual Linux, many devices have different names so even for a expert some times can be difficult to get the right information.
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] Leo_83:
Damn it!!! Tried doing this with an SD card by choosing option 2 and the script got stuck here

So I looked at the bat file and to me it looks like it always tries to do step 3 which is restoring the backup, but since I never did a backup through the script it wouldn't find the files it was looking for so that would be why it got stock where it did. So I rebooted the phone and on the pc screen I got message saying clear data/clear cache manually... so did that and rebooted the phone again not it is stuck in the boot up screen. And when going into CWM I cant mount /storage/sdcard0

Any suggestion?

When I mount storage this is what I see in MiniTool, should it be set as Type: Logical?

can any one post a link to some good ROM with multilanguage for NUBIA Z7 mini
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] dasmoop:
I have the EternalTeam rom that was installed when I bought the nubia on aliexpress.

With this rom, I can't root using towelroot and I can't update using the About Phone->Systeme Update->Update from file because the button system update does nothing.

I then tried to flash Rayglobe Mini TWRP Recovery using the instruction in the first post but got stuck like some other people here(I tried on 2 computer):

Then I read that there was a stock recovery so I tried booting into it by pressing power and volume - while booting but now the phone is stuck on the nubia logo in the booting screen and nothing happen. I'm unsure how to proceed next.
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] Leo_83:
Are sure you have installed the drivers correctly, as you I had try on different computers for it to work.

Recovery is power + volume up!

I would update to CWM recovery instead of Ray globe. Here is a link to the rom page. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2916106
[ZTE Z7, Z7 Max, Z7 Mini] Leo_83:
Well I tried flashing the CWM backup of the Mokee rom I had from before I did anything and it restored most but still not recognizing the sim cards. It seems that something when partitioning the memory got swiped and since I didn't do back up with the script it got messed up. Obviously CWM didb't back up that part. Now I am on Cuaco rom because only stock and stock based roms finds my sim cards, most be something with the radio that gets flashed with stock and not with Mokee, would be great if I knew what it was so I could see if there was a way to flash it separably with Mokee.

I have three issue when running Cuaco at the moment, the phone reboots randomly from time to time and when going to youtube or going to tapatalk it always says I don't have a network connection so can't access videos or threads on tapatalk (it does load all the channels, it just doesnt play them). And lastly it's the wifi and bluetooth error that comes from running the partitioning script, I have tried the new script fix posted by [MENTION=4148238]yiphoming[/MENTION] and used step (option) that says something with wifi but it didn't help also I don't know what it says later on, so if you, [MENTION=4148238]yiphoming[/MENTION], could translate the different options and what it says during the script it would be great.

Hey guys, just today I received Z7 mini from Eternal Team.

Problem is, I'm not getting ANY data connection other than wifi. No 3G, no 4G.

Any ideas what could be wrong? Phone came with 1.20 version installed, I upgraded to 1.62 and wiped user data, but no improvement.

I also tried *#*#4636#*#* program to change data type, with no luck.

Should I try other versions of firmware? Which ones?

I did cut both sim cards from regular size to mini, but I don't see how could that cause the problem, as voice calls and messaging work OK. Or could it??

You may need to do the new partition tool several times before it works correctly. I had to download the driver directly from ZTE because the one a few pages back would never be recognized by my computer. Once I got that working it took me 4 or 5 tries with the partition tool to get it to work. Additionally, you will likely need to use the wifi/BT repair tool that [MENTION=4148238]yiphoming[/MENTION] posted a few pages back. Most of us who have done the partitioning have needed to use that.

After that works, you will then probably have to boot into recovery and format /sdcard0 for everything to work.

Problem cuoco rom

Hi everyone,

First of all, thanks for all the info you shared in this thread ! It has been very helpful till now.

I received my phone today with rom v9.60. I read somewhere that this rom is really bad (send hidden sms for example) and I would like to install the cuoco rom but I'm stuck at the very beginning ..

I installed the CWM recovery found in the androidiani forum. Everything went fine, I can boot in recovery with power + volum up.

I downloaded the 1.62 rom and put it in SD card, boot in CWM recovery, wipe data etc .. and then : install zip --> choose zip from sdcard1, then I choose the rom and got this error message :

"symlink: some symlinks failed

E:Error in storage/sdcard1/Nubia_Z7Mini_1.62_cuoco92_firmware_signed.zip

(Status 7)

Installation aborted."

Could someone help me pls? Hopefully I did a backup first and can restore the phone back to its original state but I'm really not confident in this v9.60 rom .. I don't want to put my sim card in the phone before installing cuoco rom.

Thanks in advance and sorry for grammar mistake, not my native language :) !

[MENTION=4771907]Leo_83[/MENTION] will likely be able to help you as he had some serious issues, but got them fixed. I had the problem with BT and wifi after i did the partition tool too. Here is what helped me.

1) If using CWM, boot into recovery and find the option to format /sdcard0. (If you have any photos or anything else on there they will be erased.) Don't format /sdcard1; that is your external card.

2) A few pages back yiphoming posted a fix for wifi/BT, the file is called z7resize_1022.zip. Inside this are two bat files. You need your phone booted into recovery and attached to your PC like you did for the partition tool. First run the file called fix_wifi_bluetooth.bat. It may need to be run several times for it to work. After that, run the file restore_wifi_bluetooth.bat. Same applies here, you may need to run it a couple of times to work.

3) Reboot your phone and go to settings and delete data and cache.

4) Reboot phone again and go to settings and turn on wifi and bluetooth.

That's what I did and it all works again. I actually think my wifi works better now. I hope this helps you. As far as the random auto reboot, I've never had that problem.
