preload is 50MB, i wouldnt touch it!!!

if you want more space, assuming you have a custom rom, then install the custom rom and 'nano' gapps. then install all the other gapps you want from the market. gapps installed in the system use TWICE the space as those installed from market.

after you do this, system should be around 750MB used. then you can REPIT to resize system to 1GB and gain 1.5GB extra space for /data.

if you don't want to do all this, you can simply disable some google apps you use in the UI. you can at least recover some space.

Lanchon commented Jul 24, 2016

any aosp based rom. you can use CM or omni for instance. if you never used custom roms you shouldnt try to repartition ur phone immediately. maybe you need more experience before that.

Hi,i read the docs and i have execute repit on /tmp and it says the same thing,maybe my phone is encrypted? And how to encrypt?

Lanchon commented Jul 29, 2016

well since you don't post a log (as the docs say :) ) then i can't really help you.

if your phone is encrypted then TWRP should either ask for the unlock code or it should be unable to mount /data in the mount menu and show its contents its file manager.

to solve the unable to unmount error:
-make sure repit is in the internal memory of the phone (not the external sdcard).
-go to mount menu and disable MTP.
-disconnect from any PC or host.
-reboot recovery.
-flash repit from internal memory; it will fail.
-go to mount menu and manually unmount all partitions.
-flash repit from /tmp.

if it sill gives you trouble, remove the sdcard and repeat the process.

in case of trouble, I NEED THE LOG.

did you follow the exact steps above?

if yes, and your phone is not encrypted, then i don't know whats wrong. you might have better luck with a different TWRP build.

i don't know what's happening in your case. since this issue is a port request, i have branched the bug report here. for the time being, i can't help you in a meaningful way.

WARNING !!! WARNING !!! WARNING !!!

in view of recent events, and taking into account that this device is Qualcomm-based, the possibility of hard-bricking by repartitioning cannot be ruled out.

potential testers proceed at your own peril.

there has been a new development regarding detection of GPT signatures via strings in the bootloader. it is now known that this method can result in false positives.

please see the details here.
