[PARTITION] BlePart LVM [v1.0] topic

LVM is a logical volume manager. It joins underlying physical partitions into a pool which can be divided to virtual partitions. Since there are no real partition layout changes, hard bricking is a lot more difficult (but not impossible).

You may have BlePart installed previously, it makes no difference. You can use stock partition layout.

WARNING: LVM requires you to install LVM compatible ROMs. Do not install non-LVM ROM if you have LVM installed.

Current space division
If you would like to change this, open the zip META-INF/com/google/android/update-binary, find the partition sizes, and modify data partition size (the total space is nearly 3GiB so watch the space).

• System - 800MiB


• Cache - 10MiB


• Data - 2000MiB


• Internal SD - rest of the free space

Requirements

• LVM recovery installed


• Strongly recommended: Unlocked pink screen
