Ok, I have two Devices a t959 and a t959v. I have brought them both up to android 4.x.x with the appropriate files for the device. Somehow the T959 repartitioned the amount of system RAM from 500Mb to 1.5Gb while the t959v is still at 500mb. On the t959 I flashed to stock, using the Samsung Vibrant Root tools. (T959UVJFD)
then the update.zip recovery from 03.11.2102. then to cm-7.2.0-vibrantmtd and then to Xperia Vibrantmtd 4.2.2. I didn't notice the repartition until I ran out of space installing the same apps that were on the t959 and then compared the two phones under settings/apps. the t959v says 410Mb used and 117Mb free. the t959 says 373mb used and a whopping 1.1Gb free.
I looked at the log for the Xperia update and came across this: "Creating file system with parameters: Size: 1589624832 This would indicate that the partitioning happened during that update.
My upgrade path on the t959v was Oneclick Stock restore, then bhundven-blastoff-v2.5. then CM 11-20140908-UNOFFICIAL-galaxys4gmtd.
I didn't see anything similar during the update in the t959v.
So my dumb question is: Is there a way to have a similar memory partition on the t959v?
It seems to be that having the larger system partition goes a long way to making the phone really useable since after about 9 apps the normal system partition fills up. Is there a downside to having the larger system partition?
