Not right now. However, there could be such option with TWRP or another public tool for android phones.

Looks like it is possible, but a relatively long process. You need to have root privilege on your phone:

Right now it does not, as said already.
Have You tried flashing factory firmware, possibly that factory flashed will resize partition ?

after finished flashing factory firmware you must enter recovery and factory reset user data will be partitioned according to the rest of internal memory, but i have not tried for sony device

Has anyone done it before - changed emmc size in such LG model ? It's possible that userdata partition size is hardcoded and unchangeable.

That feature is already supported by other tools, :

-Attention Required! | Cloudflare "resize"

Or you can to try, flashing twrp custom recovery and wiping user data partition.

not in all phones it works

example: Samsung i8190 and i8160

it all depends on the phone itself.

Ok, but then, what is necessary?, to use universal .Pit files, custom primary GPT files?.

We didnt wanted to do it exactly because it could be done by twrp and some other tools, and of course there is always risk of destroying important data.
Its useful feature for people who know exactly what to do, but there are many inexperienced users who could damage phones clicking buttons randomly. It happened before, many times.
