I really don't know why u Guys need 10 Different Instructions on how to flash and repartitioning your Phone.

U only need to read Post #1 + #3 and understand what u read and do.

Never ever install things if don't understand what those update.zip packages will change or install in your phone !

As it's possible that i sometimes forget to write an needed step, and u'll run into problems if u're flashing + installing without to use your brain (sorry no offense). I like Guys like [MENTION=6902149]Dr360r[/MENTION] [MENTION=7332124]beardedpanda[/MENTION] (and many others) that are using his brain :D

For example [MENTION=6902149]Dr360r[/MENTION] has noticed that i forgot to write Step "format sdcard0 as vfat" on new repart_v1.2.

Basically the latest ROM + Kernel is able to work properly with stock SAMSUNG partitions layout, ... except of the fact that it'll maybe fail to install gapps, because on /system the space is too low ... so u'll need ANY repartition zip package that increases at least a bit the system partition ... on latest kernel it doesn't matter how big is sdcard0 ... also sdcards are not swapped natively. Also u don't need to swap storages on NT-APP as long sdcard0 is at least 1GB ... why ? - there are some apps that wants to install some data on real sdcard0, no matter if it's swapped or not ! - and some of those apps really want to write Files around 700MB ! like Navigon Europe + Real Racing 3 like in my case !

That means once the app is installed on sdcard0, u can try to move the corresponding Folders to micro-sd card by using File Manager on the phone ... or if this doesn't work, just using app like link2sd .. in order to have always sdcard0 with at least 1GB free space ... so that next big app installation will not fail, or

u'll not need to swap storages, reboot, install app, swap storages, reboot !

So basically for installing latest kernel + ROM, no matter if it's messed up now, u don't need to flash stock ROM or even a 3-parted ROM ! - Once u had already fully working CM11, or u was coming from stock JB ---> CM11 installation over cwm_temp_6028 .. then u only need to repart your phone from zero by using cwm_stock_reparted... (latest) + latest repart_vxx .. or instead latest reapart_vxx.zip u can also choose an cwm_repart.zip from here:

Otherwise u can use my preset which is almost stress free, by using this how-to from Post #3:

How - to Repartition your internal Flash NEW VERSION !:

Then follow installation tips from Post #1 and all should be fine :)

If u did everything right, u should have something like that, except of different size fro sdcard1 and different free size for /system, depending which gapps u're using or if u deleted or added some System apps !

the "permissions" warning are normal ... as we're executing this command without root rights. so if u type "su" they will disappear, only /mnt/.lfs: Function not implemented, will remain, i guess this is because of some disabled kernel option in defconfig, which is so far not needed since everything works as expected :)

So again, latest kernel + ROM, is maybe possible to work even on original samsung partitions layout, unless /system is too low, the only thing is u should install directly after the NEW Kernel, the RECOVERY as well ! --- otherwise after u leave cwm, u'll not be able to boot into cwm anymore ! - (then u'll need ODIN Kernel, and repeat install steps with recovery installtion)

u can get recovery from here:

http://www.xda.mister-freeze.eu/XDA-files/ace2nutzer/recovery/

Kernels packages with SIZE of 9,6MB, have cwm inside !

But new Kernels with SIZE of 5,8MB, don't have cwm built-in !! (so u've to install separately!)

ODIN Kernel, if u failed to read and understand all my Tips: ;)

ODIN:

http://d-h.st/Jze

temp_cwm_6028: (if u're on Stock JB !!)

http://d-h.st/2td

All other Files, use ONLY FTP Server (for latest versions !)

U need also installed and working Samsung mobile usb drivers ... unless ODIN will not recognize your phone !

Some post ago, some users already posted links to download samsung mobile usb driver, or u can easily find it by using google-search.

Have Fun !
