ask support for a repartitionned Galaxy s4mini #10

Description

@piero-e

the device has only 1500MB allowed to SYSTEM partition and i faced "out of space" error

after attempting to modify the.PIT file, i gave up because it was rejected by Odin and i also failled using Heimdall.
i understand .PIT is now signed since the Galaxy s3
i didn't tried the REPIT tool from Lanchon for that reason

i have modified device/samsung/serrano-common/BoardConfigCommon.mk my sources
to already build Android 11 based /e/OS for serranoltexx without the famous "Out of space error"

# Filesystem

BOARD_SYSTEMIMAGE_PARTITION_SIZE := 2097152000 instead of 1572864000

BOARD_USERDATAIMAGE_PARTITION_SIZE := 5297388544 instead of 5649710080

also i builded a custom TWRP with the same values

After that i did repartionning the device using parted from adb shell (to elabore a script)
on time i go up to resizing in TWRP, but there i get error trying to flash either my resized full build or the usual working old version
(cropped /e/OS distribution to fit the 1500MB system by disable some usefull big default /system/priv-apps during build)

may i could find help here ? @arco you were the device maintainer
(i am not an android developer, more a tinkerer...don't have coding knowledge...)
i can link to some elements i have.

thanks in advance...
