I have a S2 with broken Home button. After reading OP carefully, I can imagine I will get stuck in step 9, where I will be unable to go into recovery. Does anyone know if it is still possible to repartition my S2? If so, please suggest how. Thanks.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] kai_15:
is it ok if i use philz kernel.tar insted of gustavo kernel?

hope there is 1gb pit_5gb for data. hehe
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ssanjy:
Yes you may use Philz... That's what I used during my phone's repartitioning.... And I don't think that there's such pit size in the zip.... 1Gb and 4Gb is a great option..
[Galaxy S II Android Development] kai_15:
--> ok sir thanks.. will do it later! thankyou
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Saber:
You should be able to use adb reboot recovery (adb tools on windows) to get into the recovery. On rom boot, your PC should be able to detect your phone, so you can try formatting this way. It is quite hard to do these kind of procedures without working home button, so I really woudn't recommend changing partition sizes in your case.

Regards, gsstudios
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ryan_giggs:
Hi, gsstudios. Thank you for your reply.

Yeah you are right. Even though the hardware home button is broken, I can easily follow steps 1 - 8 because my S2 can be rebooted from the system to either recovery or download mode via ADB or "advanced reboot". That's the way how I flashed custom ROM to my poor S2.

However, after flash with ODIN in step 8, my major problem I will encounter is how to reboot my S2 to recovery, because, as far as I understand, it won't boot normally to the system without formatting the required partitions.

Anyway, as final two approaches in my mind, what about

1) if I completely wipe the system off in the recovery before flashing pit and kernel files via ODIN. Since there is no system installed, will the phone reboot automatically to recovery mode?

2) if I use a USB jig to get into download mode? Anything I can do further at this point?

Before giving up, I would like to ask whether they are worth a try according to your knowledge and experience. Thanks.

I think that is due to you being in stock ROM,. It will show your system only the default size of the stock ROM... However you should have 4gb of data partition,..

Is this compatible with all i9100 ?

I have a i9100P (from France = i9100 + NFC) and I'd like to resize.

I currently have a stock GB 2.3 not rooted.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Acid0057:
It should work on the i9100P. It works on the i9100 and execpt for Nfc aren't they the same?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] KpttpK:
Hi there,

I just completed the steps succesfuly (1GB, 6GB) for my i9100 and everything seemed to be fine until i try to open camera !

When i open it says "insert a sd card". I already have sd card inside the device and i was using it properly before.

So how can i make it to see sd card 1 (external sd card) after this increasing partition size operation ?

Thanks
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Saber:
Did you change the kernel after restoring your rom? What rom are you using? What file system did you have on your sd card?

regards, gsstudios
[Galaxy S II Android Development] KpttpK:
-My rom is cm-12.1-20151116-SNAPSHOT-YOG7DAO1JN-i9100.zip (stable) and i flashed with gapps ARM 5.1 pico.

-I didn,t touch the kernel after repartition and flashing rom.

-sd card is formatted from windows and it is fully empty now.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Saber:
I would now try using a smaller pit file such as the 1GB_4GB pit, and if that still doesn't solve anything, revert back to stock pit.

regards, gsstudios
[Galaxy S II Android Development] KpttpK:
Thanks for the suggestion, i was also thinking this option but, i was also consider to change kernel. Maybe there is one for sd card fix. Do you have any suggestion about changing kernel and which one ?

Thanks

I did 1 GB-4 GB and sd card problem solved. Everything is working fine now. Thanks again.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Saber:
I suspected that was the issue, hence there was even a warning in the OP saying that:

Glad your problem is fixed! - gsstudios
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Dark1Angel:
hi! i'm in a pinch now! I did th repartition with gustavo_s kernel and 1system 4 data pit provided by [MENTION=589051]gss[/MENTION]tudio and it all went good till I had to format the sd card where it told me it can't mount. going in mount I can't select anything besides cash. What should I do?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Saber:
Sorry, but what do you mean by 'beside cash'? I assume you are talking about cache? At the bottom of the mounts and storage menu, there should be a 'mount usb storage'. You need to select that and format via your computer. There should be more options than just 'mount /cache'. You should be able to format your internal sd card in the same menu as well as format /system and etc.

regards, gsstudios
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Dark1Angel:
Yes, cache. I see all the other: system, data, internal, sd card, cache etc but i can't select them. When i press the mount usb the pc doesn't see the device. Is it possible to have "destroyed" the memory? I'll try again later and take pictures of every step so you can give a diagnosis
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Dark1Angel:
As you can see in the first picture, everything is ok. In the second is the log after it booted in twrp. In the third is the log after wiping everything(in the first tries i only wiped the sd but to be sure i wiped everything). In the forth and fifth uou can see i can select neither the micro sd nor the internal storage for mounting. After i mount the pc doesn't see my device. So, whats the verdict?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] the.gangster:
If you are still in TWRP, goto wipe, goto advanced wipe, select one partition, goto 'repair or change filesystem', check if it already shows the new size. If no click resize first. If yes, click change file system, choose ext4 for all except for emmc (use Fat for that), repeat for each modified partition.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] OlMightyG:
Hi, I managed to install Lolipop with GApps using the 1GB/4GB Pitfile... after several problems. I found out that I had to chose "resize" as mentioned in the post above mine.

But now I can not mount my internal memory. Recovery says "emmc can not be mounted". What shall I do? ROM starts fine. Can I just format emmc?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] the.gangster:
Yes, you have to format emmc, as it was affected by resizing the other partitions. Read above.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Dark1Angel:
I did that for cache, system, data, emmc. Fo all it says format succesful but can't mount storage and for emmc it doesn't say unable to mount. Now what do i do?

Update:couldn't do that fro dalvik, android secure and micro sd card(i don't have exccard inserted)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] the.gangster:
So if all formatting was successful, you can flash a ROM again or restore your backup. What do you mean by "but can't Mount storage" and why do you try to format not existing ones like a not inserted SD?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Dark1Angel:
well, i did the "change file system" for emmc last so until emmc for every partition it said format succesfully and in the log it said"unble to mount storage", but now after emmc, i did the others againg and no error in log. question: seeing all those errors i partitioned the last time the stock one so nowthe partitions are as they were innitially. Can i now partition with odin what pit i want and then do the the same thing i did now as you instructed me?

P.S. : do i have to "repair" also?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] WinterScorpion:
Can I use mobile ODIN for that, as my usb is semi-broken and my s2 is not recognized from any pc?

(have anyone tried that)

Thanks for the great guide anyway, I don't have space in system partition even for gapps after all these years...!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] OlMightyG:
Ok, formatting worked, everything fine now. Should i reinstall the rom because the emmc was not existent at the moment of the installation? After a reboot the standard folders were created. I do not know if there is anything essential missing that is installed int the internal storage while flashing a rom...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Dark1Angel:
All solved. Thx a lot [MENTION=6560258]the.gangster[/MENTION]
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] internetpilot:
This is just documenting a question and solution to a problem that took me a long time and a lot of searching to find. My two sons are earch running a Samsung Galaxy S3 with rooted stock ROMs pretty much since the phones were purchased. Out of the blue and just with this latest NJ2 update, one of their phones never received the OTA and would instead get the following error message: "Unfortunately the process com.samsung.syncservice has stopped". This would appear again when I would try to Update Firmware, Update Samsung Software, Update Profile, and Update PRL. After receiving the error, when I would reboot the phone I could update the PRL and Profile, but if I tried to update Samsung software or update firmware, the message would appear again.

Turns out that the solution was just to clear data/cache on the SyncMLSvc app via Application Manager, and then reboot the phone. Now all is well. Hope this helps someone else, and makes the solution a lot easier to find than it was for me.

[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Humprey Fetalvero:
Hello everyone,

I've noticed that whenever I charge my Xperia Z3 via dock the battery management graph is not being refreshed. That is, the graph continues it's time (y axis) even after you pulled the charged out (when it should refresh to 0 time as it is when charged via normal port).

This means if I always use dock charging the graph would span on days and days on battery when it's actually being charged, even multiple times, within that span. My main problem is that the graph became hard to read on particular point when the span is so wide (well, if it can only be zoomed).

Is this normal (i.e. a universal bug)?

Thanks!

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Haps13:
But a S5(SM-G900W8) second hand that was described as unlocked on Jan 5. From the kijiji ad looks like they were using Telus. Put my Fido SIM and and off to the races. Except it wouldn't update. Flashed with ODIN to Telus firmware from SAMMOBILE. Still working fine.

Until Jan 14th. It just stopped working. Says unregistered SIM. Tried that sim in a G3 and it works no problem. Tried working SIM from G3 in S5 and no go. Took it to Fido store. No help but they did give a new sim. Can read SIM information using app.

Not blacklisted with Fido/Telus/Bell/Virgin/Koodo. Called them all. All of those providers have no information on phone when searching by IMEI.

There is a Bell TV app on phone so I thought maybe it was originally Bell and went to a store to see if they had any info. No info but girl in store tried her bell sim and it worked. I assumed that somehow in the firmware/software upgrade process it had lost it's unlock and must be back locked to bell. Tried to unlock it from Bell but it fails says IMEI not in database(from internet unlocking service).

Still thinking it might be locked called all providers mentioned above to see if they know anything. Nothing. Sidenote when I put my Fido sim in it just says unregistered SIM. Does not pop up for an unlock code or anything.

Tried a friends Rogers SIM. Unregistered SIM. Drove to Telus store to try a SIM. It worked but no service because it was not tied to an account(but did pull Telus APN's from connecting).

So it appears as though Bell/Telus SIM's work. But Fido/Rogers say unregistered SIM.

Called Fido again and they had me go through all the manual APN setup etc. Then something about sending a new signal to phone from Tower to reset network settings. Didn't work. Fido has no answer for me at all. But yet it did work on Fido for 9ish days.

I'm stumped.

[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FruitbatRaraka:
Hi guys,

I was adamant I could fix this on my own, but I've been chasing my tail for two days now and still no luck.

I'm trying to get CyanogenMod 12 running on my C6903 Xperia Z1. As far as I can tell, I did everything right:

- Rolled back to 14.1

- Rooted with vROOT

- Backed up TA partition

- Unlocked bootloader using official Sony method

- Installed PhilZ Dual Recovery

- Installed CM12 and GAPPS

Everything SEEMS to be working fine, except I get no mobile signal, the phone reports "Invalid Card - Emergency Calls Only", and my IMEI appears to be 0.

Note that this is NOT the issue I've seen a lot of other users having, where both the IMEI and Baseband version are unknown. My baseband is fine; it is just the IMEI that seems to be the problem.

I've tried a lot of fixes that seem to have worked for people with the baseband issue, but none have helped.

At first I assumed it must just be an unresolved issue since I was using a daily build of CM (23/01/15). But I've tried the most recent CM11 Snapshot (2014-11-12) and it has the exact same issue.

When I go back to using stock ROMs, the IMEI number returns and the mobile network works fine, so I can safely assume I haven't corrupted the partition.

I read somewhere that, on Samsung phones, the IMEI data is stored on the /efs partition, and that some baseband versions are incompatible with with the format of newer /efs partitions. Is the same possibly true of the TA partition, where the Z1 stores its IMEI info?

Along that line of thought, I tried flashing the baseband only from a 14.1 FTF that had been confirmed working, but to no avail.

I have a backup of the TA partition, but since restoring that means locking the bootloader and thus preventing me from running any custom ROMs, that's obviously not going to help. Is there any way to restore only the IMEI info from a TA backup? Alternatively, am I going down completely the wrong path in trying to fix this? Any help would be appreciated.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
Welcome to xda!

Since your bootloader is already unlocked, then all you need to do is to flash a custom recovery like TWRP.

With the recovery.img in the same folder where you have adb and fastboot and your phone booted in bootloader/fastboot usb mode, open a command prompt and type:

fastboot flash recovery name_of_recovery.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader

then reboot in recovery mode by selecting "recovery" in the bootloader. Once booted in TWRP recovery, just select to reboot to system and the recovery will detect that your phone isn't rooted and will ask if you want to root it. Select "yes". Then once rebooted in the OS, you should have supersu in your app drawer.

Don't forget sprint variant of the One isn't the same phone as the international gsm variant so always flash files (Custom recovery/ custom roms/ Custom kernel) compatible for sprint (M7WLS sometime called M7SPR)
