Hello XDA communityI'm using my GT-I9300 via reparititoned table for 4 months and it's working very well and very useful for Custom ROM users like us.Here's stock 16 GB GT-I9300 has a partition table;As you can see, Samsung give 1GB to /cache partition and ~587MB to /preload partition. If your phone is out of OTA update service (if your phone is rooted, it's already out of OTA) they're the most useless things in your device.The system downloads Android OTA updates to /cache. If you want update yourphone 4.1.2 to 4.3 via OTA, the device needs to have enough space for store the update. That's why /cache partition is so big. But, if your device is rooted (or you're using a custom ROM), that doesn't matter because the device is out of OTA update service already.It's just only for Samsung's craps. It only has a ringtone, and a video called Nature of .... (I don't remember the video name).If you are a Custom ROM user or using device with root, you don't need those sooo big partitions. You should resize them.You will shrink those useless partitions and give more space to /data ( User data) partition.Of course. Re-partition an Android device is one of the most dangerous thinks.Yes. If you done this guide and resize your partitions, you can't install any Official ROM via Odin.You can't install Official ROMs (downloaded from sammobile.com, samsung-updates.com, etc). But you can install kernels, modems, bootloaders, recoveries via Odin without any problem.Your device will be semi-bricked. Recovery cannot mount&format some partitions. But you can restore/unbrick your device with PIT file.16 GB of GT-I9300 only. Please don't try it to other devices.Of course. You can do anything like before on your device with Custom Recovery. You can install anything like always.Yes, in second post.Your device will be freshed after repartition, so you should make Nandroid Backup and backup your internal sdcard.1 - Download "repart_16GB_GT-I9300_CWM.zip" or if you use AOSP and you hate sammy ROMs, download "repart_16GB_GT-I9300_CWM_AOSPv2.zip" from attachments and copy it tosdcard.2 - Make sure that you backup everything on your device3 - Boot to recovery ( Latest Philz Touch)4 - Install the zip file you've downloaded . After installation, device will reboot to recovery automatically.5 - You can see some mount errors while booting recovery. Don't panic.6 - Wipe Data/Factory Reset --> Clean to Install a New ROM (You may see some error, don't worry)7 - Mounts and Storage --> format /data and /data/media (/sdcard)8 - Bingo! Restore your system, or install a ROM.That's it! After doing repartition (not AOSP one), your partition table will be;As you see, we have +1.5GB on USERDATA partition.
