I am using dual boot patcher and I have lineage os 13 and 14 installed in my system partition ! I would like to increase my system partition size so that I can flash some more apps into the system partition ! How do I do that?

Hello,
Would it theoretically possible to delete the recovery system of android and use the space for example for data?
I mean, if you have SPflashtool, you would not need the android recovery, becuase you can flash the phone over pc,
if something is broken on the firmware, so why not deleting it, and use the space the recovery takes normally for other purposes?
Is the recovery system only needed for recovery, or has it other functions too (Booting the normal system for example)?

Partitions aren't resizeable on Andoid A-only devices, hence by deleting the mentioned /recovery partition one doesn't gain storage space that can get added/merged to another partition, for example /data partition.

But I think it would be possible to edit the partition table BEFORE flashing the ROM on the phone?
Hello. I'm trying to resize the system partition because its so small. But I can't see the System partition in the TWRP Wipe menu. Can I resize the system partition manually? Had anyone tried it?
I've been trying to follow the tutorials on resizing the partition but it seems like even after I do advance wipe and resize, the amount of free space on the system partition does not change. I take it that there is no free space to give and some other portion of the partition (like the data partition) should be shrunk before system partition can get the extra space.
I have no idea how Samsung managed to fit their OS AND all the google apps in the 560mb. Deleting any apps from the stock installed android only removes it from the data partition. System stays the same.
How can I resize the system partition properly to add more space?
Hey,
basically the title. I have rooted my Redmi Note 10 as i am doing some analysis using autopsy. Surprisingly, i was unable to analyse the userdata partition as autopsy does not support f2fs. I was not expecting a f2fs data partition as the system partition is also formatted as ext4. Without switching to a custom ROM, is it possible to force MIUI 12.5.5 to use ext4 by re-formatting and re-flashing the device?
in my humble opinion you shouldn't mess with partitions
Well, that does not solve my problem^^ I tried to change the partition using TWRP. However, whenever i flash the MIUI ROM, the process formats the userdata partition back to f2fs. Even TWRP will reformat the userdata partition to f2fs when i format the data. Where is defined to which format TWRP formats the partitions? Has anyone an idea on how to solve this issue?
After installing TWRP and changing file system of /data to EXT2 & EXT4, I can't boot the system (Boot loop?). I can still open up TWRP though. Not sure what to do to fix it.

Try format . Wipe dalvik cache / cache / data

What method do you use for flashing twrp recovery?
Not all devices use ext4. Are you sure this one does?
