In general I would say that's a very bad idea...however, if you're very careful and are willing to incur some risk, it could possibly work...on the N5, since the cache partition sits between system and userdata (and more importantly doesn't touch recovery) you could theoretically try it, and if it doesn't work, undo it, all while leaving your userdata partition untouched. If preserving your data is your goal...it's probably a bad idea, but that doesn't mean it isn't possible.
[Nexus 5 General] edi194:
How about taking space from cache to userdata? 1-1,5GB'll be unused anyway and on 16gb variant it'll be nice to have some more memory to have

[MENTION=4297483]surfrock66[/MENTION] Hi, is the same way for n7 (2013) 32gb?

Thanks
[Nexus 5 General] itswil:
No, this is not necessarily true. You will need to use Parted to analyse the partitions and then make the relevant modifications. Again, do not try this unless you are willing to potentially brick your device.

Faied copy parted to //parted : read-only file system

Whats hapend?
[Nexus 5 General] surfrock66:
In TWRP, you have to choose to mount your system as read/write, for me with TWRP 3.x it's an option right when TWRP starts. If you don't do that, you can't write to / and thus can't copy the file over.
[Nexus 5 General] jordirpz:
Ok thank you.

Other question please. Adb Shell steps, works in trwp or i need mount system and reboot system for make it? Thank you
[Nexus 5 General] surfrock66:

Ok, thanks for you awesome guide.

For me works, now i have 2gb in system?

Sorry for ETA: can you in near future make a reparted file and guide for N7 2013 wifi please?
[Nexus 5 General] surfrock66:
I don't have that device, but the original post here should have everything you need to re-create the process for another device. You'll have to re-calculate the offsets based on what you find when you run the original partition query.
[Nexus 5 General] ricardo.adao:
Just to double check.

Any ideas of what ROMs would need this?

I'm interested of the cyanogenmod in my particular case.
[Nexus 5 General] itswil:
CM14.1 fits on the Nexus 5 /system partition WITHOUT repartitioning.

I wanted to try this because I want to flash Stock Gapps (as opposed to Nano), hoping to get a Pixel-like experience as described in my previous post (http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=70145560&postcount=10). However, I had lots of crashes with Stock Gapps.

Instead, I now use CM14.1 with Nano Gapps.

If you want a more Pixel-like experience, that side-loading doesn't provide (no Google Now on the left side of the Homescreen, no Pixel-like animations on clicking the G Search Bar), I have resorted to installing the Pixel Launcher and Wallpaper APKs into /system.

Instructions found: http://android.stackexchange.com/questions/76976/how-to-install-app-as-system-app

Re-flashing a ROM will require you to re-do these steps.

Santhosh M's AOSP ROM writes partition data.

Something else:

I've tried to repartition to the stock table and flashed the factory image without errors.

However, the crypto partition is 0.5 MB smaller...

I'm afraid encrypting the handset it would cause problems.

Does someone else have a similar output?

Stock table:

26 1267MB 1298MB 31.5MB crypto

'Near-stock' table:

26 1267MB 1298MB 31.0MB crypto

EDIT:

Tested encryption anyway, it's safe

Decryption (reset to factory settings through back-up and reset) is safe as well.
[Nexus 5 General] YassinTP:
Thanks for the great guide, just applied it to my N5!

However, I accidentially formatted the "crypto" partition (no. 26) as ext4. I removed and created it again, but it still says "ext4" in the partition list. How can I remove this?

[QUOTE]

[Nexus 5 General] chcknsld:
OK, so after hours of trial and errors, I found that this command "resize2fs -f /dev/block/mmcblk0p25 2000M" makes your /system a read-only partition. I tried writing to it with V4Arise AROMA installation and when I read the logs, they're all "Cannot X: Read-only file system" error. Is there anyway to make it rewrittable after doing that command because I already tried remounting -rw but has no effect. It would be totally useless expanding /system partition if we can't write to it. I did try omitting that command and successfully wrote to /system but it's not resized yet so I encountered "not enough space" errors.

EDIT:

Again, after so many hours of trying to find a fix, I finally managed to get a workaround to install V4Arise, DarkROM and DarkGapps which equals to 1.1GB in /system partition. All I just have to do was to nandroid backup after installing the ROM and Gapps, but I also have to do the resize command after installing the ROM. After that I did a full wipe, restore the backups then install Magisk, V4Arise and Magisk V4Arise compatability module. That's it! That did the trick. There's something about the restore command that did it.

Can anyone post detailed instructions for Windows 10?
[Nexus 5 General] grivad:
The instructions are exactly the same, since all of those commands are performed within an ADB shell.

Download parted from here, extract the .rar, then adb push the extracted parted to / (as the instructions show). This covers the first three lines of the instructions, so just follow the instructions from there.

In Windows, you don't need to prefix everything with sudo, just do "adb push parted /" for example.

Anything prefixed with a ~ is done within the ADB shell, anything prefixed with a # is a comment, anything not prefixed with anything is done from within your command prompt/powershell in Windows.

System shrinked back to 1G

Hi,

I have some trouble during installation.

I bootet to TWRP, used adb shell and extended system to 2G, ignoring error messages, that the kernel could not notice new partitions. I formatted to ext4 after reboot and checked size.

Than used adb push to upload lineage and gapps (stock)

I tried to install them but gapps failed with error 70 due to insufficient storage. I checked the size by mounting system again in adb shell: it was 1G again like before.

After reformat and re-installing the lineage zip ist was reproducible: the system filesystem was shrinked again.

So I resized the filesystem to the partion size, whih seemed 2G: voila 2G in total.

I could install gapps stock now with twrp install.

After booting I noticed, that I keyboard was missing, so I could not enter a password for wlan, ignoring this I ended the wizard to

"Android is starting..." and this is not terminating.... I can access settings to verify, that no keyboard was installed, but I am not able to install one, since Android is NOT starting, the message is there for hours.

Edit: Using the Full Gapps PAckage however is working on a 1.5G /system Partion
[Nexus 5 General] Riskypedia:
Everything worked well... But even though stock gapps successfully installed, I don't have apps such as launcher, keyboard, etc... after the boot. I think it's not for only me, and is there any solution existing?
[Nexus 5 General] Kotaless:
Are you using Dirty Unicorns? It's the only rom I have encountered this issue.

Even if you install successfully, system partition backs to default size when you reboot. I had to flash pico gapps.
[Nexus 5 General] Riskypedia:
No... Every rom I tried caused the problem... Is it becauase I'm trying on Oreo?
[Nexus 5 General] Kotaless:
I tried like 5 oreo roms until DU and it was fine. Maybe some recent commits cause this problem. Try older roms like AOSIP and let me know if you have time.

Edit: Maybe latest TWRP cause this. I don't know. But something recent caused this.
[Nexus 5 General] Riskypedia:
Alright thnx :D Maybe I should try older twrp
[Nexus 5 General] ThinnerMetalX:
I had the same problem with the Unlegacy ROM. I solved the problem by following these steps:

1. Flash latest TWRP.

2. Reboot recovery

3. Factory reset (if you wipe all partitions, even the internal storage, factory reset after)

4. Flash rom

5. Reboot recovery

6. Flash GAPPS

7. Reboot

Worked for me :)
[Nexus 5 General] Riskypedia:
So, you mean I should wipe whole phone and then flash rom, reboot recovery, type command to resize partition(since rom would change system partition to 1gb back as OP said), and finally the gapps?
[Nexus 5 General] ThinnerMetalX:
Yes, you may try this out, but wiping internal storage is not mandatory
[Nexus 5 General] Riskypedia:
LOL... Not working. Anyway, thanks to your help :D
[Nexus 5 General] ThinnerMetalX:
Oh, that's unfortunate :(
[Nexus 5 General] ahmed-max:

[Nexus 5 General] JekaPinsk:
Hello guys!

Try this:

1) Install ROM

2) Backup ROM

3) Enable "Use 'rm -rf' instead of formatting" in TWRP settings

4) Format /system

4.1) Unmount /system and use 'resize2fs -f /dev/block/mmcblk0p25' in terminal (TWRP)

5) Reboot TWRP

5.1) Uncheck "Use 'rm -rf' instead of formatting" in TWRP settings

6) Restore backup

7) Install Stock OpenGapps

8) Done!

The idea behind it is that ROM installation somehow corrupt /system partition thus any write operations above normal data region silently fail.
[Nexus 5 General] ahmed-max:
works like charm thank you very much.

if i may add u may need to untick "use rm-rf instead of formatting" before restoring coz irt gave me errors when it's used
[Nexus 5 General] silpy:
worked like a charm on nexus 5[16GB] and i didnt loose a 'bit' of data in the process.

backstory: so i wanted to install google app as a system app in Oreo but wasnt able to do so cuz of the limited system partition .

after searching awhile, i found this thread and now i cant thank you enough for this wonder

process: i did followed the *exact* same process and also managed to retain my ROM and data

*'firstly, i made a NAND backup of everything via twrp

-then i thought what if i could use a portion of cache partition instead of userdata to add to the system partition (spoiler: thats what i did)

-this way, the userdata would remained untouched and the cache wasnt anything i was gonna miss

-here's my partition table before resizing:

~ # ./parted /dev/block/mmcblk0 p
Model: MMC SEM16G (sd/mmc)
Disk /dev/block/mmcblk0: 15.8GB
Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B
Partition Table: gpt

Number Start End Size File system Name Flags
...
25 193MB 1267MB 1074MB ext4 system
26 1267MB 1298MB 31.5MB crypto
27 1298MB 2032MB 734MB ext4 cache
28 2032MB 15.8GB 13.7GB ext4 userdata
29 15.8GB 15.8GB 5632B grow

here's the same thing after resizing:

Number Start End Size File system Name Flags
...
25 193MB 1731MB 1538MB ext4 system //system is now resized to 1.5GB
26 1731MB 1762MB 31.0MB crypto
27 1762MB 2032MB 270MB ext4 cache //cache is reduced to 270
28 2032MB 15.8GB 13.7GB ext4 userdata //the userdata was untouched
29 15.8GB 15.8GB 5632B grow

-*finally, instead of downloading & clean flashing a rom, i restored the NAND backup that i previously made via twrp

---its worth noting that i didnt resize the system partition after restoring the backup as instructed in the OP (you should if you do a clean flash)

-then i downloaded OpenGAPPS nano (as it consisted google app), pushed it to my device via adb and installed it via recovery

-rebooted (without clearing cache) and uoeno

:D

well thanks alot for this awesome post

Amazing. Thank you for this guide. it works like a charm. I just wanna ask a question. I want 3 gb space instead of 2 gb. i did all things correct but just last step gonna fail. you said resize2fs -f /dev/block/mmcblk0p25 2000M". i changed it to "resize2fs -f /dev/block/mmcblk0p25 3000M". it mess it up everything and i back to the original, it worked. but there is missing 1 gb.

i parted partition like that.

./parted /dev/block/mmcblk0 mkpart primary 193MB 3291MB

./parted /dev/block/mmcblk0 mkpart extended 3291MB 3322MB

./parted /dev/block/mmcblk0 mkpart primary 3322MB 4056MB

./parted /dev/block/mmcblk0 mkpart primary 4056MB 15.8GB

what should i write instead of 2000M to?
[Nexus 5 General] sneak:
Well I tried this by first increasing the system partition by 620MB since I was short by 617.xx MB according to the OpenGApps log. It didn't work; I was told that there wasn't enough space on the partition for GApps still.

I chose to shrink userdata and cache partitions to donate some space to system.

So I partitioned all over again and set the system partition to 2GB and the stock GApps still won't install (I flash this version of crDroid first).

Here's how the partition table looks:

Used System Space (KB) | 835184
Current Free Space (KB) | 198332
Additional Space Required (KB) | 616648 << See Calculations Below

UPDATE:

Resolved issue by doing this (yes I see it's in the original post, but I didn't realize it wasn't just for his specific needs):

resize2fs -f /dev/block/mmcblk0p25 2000M
mount -a

Then flashing the GApps again... so I plan to change the partitions one last time to give me back more space on my 16GB model then do this all over again.

Hi, I'm searching for the stock partition table log for my Nexus 5 16GB.

Thanks so much for this, still very valid in 2020!

to

./parted /dev/block/mmcblk0 mkpart primary 3056MB 100%

I have the 16GB version so of course i can't make my partition that large. This way the guide will be valid for both 16GB and 32GB.

Thank you for mentioning this.

Do you have any suggestions on how to recover if I already have bricked my phone. It is so malfunctioning, that I can't load TWRP - I only see the loading screen, but it never finishes.

I'm able to run fastboot from the bootloader and I think I managed to enter `adb shell`

I know it was stupid of me blindly following the guide, but hope someone can point me in the right direction :)

[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sparky56p:
Hi, I recently damaged my S4 and decided to upgrade to the S6, so far I love the phone, got it new for $250 :)

However since it's with straight talk in not one of the more common models and I can't really seem to find any information on it, I'm mostly hoping to find a way to root it, a custom recovery would be nice but I certainly don't need it

Has anyone had any experience with this device?

Or could someone maybe point me in the right direction?

Device: Galaxy S6 (Straight Talk)

Model: SM-S907VL

Baseband: S907VLUDU1APG8 (idk if that's important lol)

Android: 6.0.1

I appreciate any help that you guys might be able to give

I am looking for the same!

Would like to root and install CM.

Samsung S6 SM-907VL

I too got the "Black Friday" deal with this phone. It is Straight Talk and is a nice phone. I emailed a popular rooting developer and they have a list a mile long with phones their app will root. But it will not root this model. If someone finds an app that will root, please post.

Looking to root this model too. Could you flash a rom from one that uses the same board and chip set? Essentially turning it from a straight talk phone to Verizon , sprint, or at&t then proceed to root from there? Might be a noob question but I been wondering if it would work
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AWILLIAMSON:
Root

You can not do that. Unless you want to brick your phone. I am searching now, will let you know if I come up with anything! :)
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sparky56p:
Well hopefully we can hear back soon, I've still had pretty much no luck with this model, seems it's too little know for anything custom yet

Has anyone tried KingRoot?
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sparky56p:
I've tried Kingroot a few times now, the device is not supported unfortunately

Need root and 7.0 rom!
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] justincase78:
Seriously been looking for root since I got this phone. Is anyone even working on a root for it? Would the root for sm-s903vl work for the sm-s907vl or would it brick it? At this point I don't even care if I trip Knox. I just want ROOT!!
