  • eMMC plugin 5.12 incorrect GPT adjusting

    Noticed, that eMMC plugin 5.12 incorrectly adjusts GTP almost for any chip. It takes unallocated space and renews last named partition before it, or before GPT backup. For example samsung P5100 partitions:
    .....
    11 DATAFS - 12GB
    12 HIDDEN - 512MB
    13 NOT ALLOCATED - 15GB
    14 GPT BACKUP - 16KB
    After adjusting we have:
    .....
    11 DATAFS - 12GB
    12 HIDDEN - 15,5GB
    13 GPT BACKUP - 16KB

    Can it be fixed somehow? Or can I manually select partition which have to be adjusted?

    For samsung not qualcomm models (in fact all samsung models) gpt values arent important as it takes values from PIT.
    What you need is to execute recovery with --data_resizing command (depends from model to model, but this command is usually located in cache/recover/command file.

    Adjust GPT function is replacement for patch0.xml in qualcomm models, where factory GPT has no size entry. Not for GPT partitioning style as in MTK or any other model where userdata partition is not last partition. It wont work also for LG models as they have grow partition positioned at last place.

    Resizing single partition is on task list but wont come up soon.
