Installation Instructions

NOTE: If you repartitioned your phone using a pit file, its recommended that you flash back the original unmodified pit to take full advantage of the increased space.

Latest official TWRP recovery: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1622917
Virtual Partition TWRP recovery
TWRP 3.0.2: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24545070682210374

From another non-virtual partitioned ROM:
  1. Make sure you have the latest OFFICIAL TWRP installed.
  2. Backup current ROM if desired
  3. Back up EVERYTHING on your internal SD card to your computer (the internal SD card WILL BE ERASED in the next step).
  4. In TWRP, go to Wipe -> Advanced Wipe -> check Internal Storage -> press on "Repair or Change File System" -> press on "Change File System" -> press on "EXT4", and then swipe to start formatting the internal SD card. This can take up to a minute.
  5. Wipe Data, Cache and System.
  6. Copy the newest version of my TWRP recovery to your device and flash it.
  7. After that is finished, go back to the main menu, then go to Reboot and press on Recovery.
  8. Once the device has rebooted back into TWRP recovery, goto mount then uncheck and recheck data.
  9. Copy and flash the new ROM and your GApps package to your device and flash
  10. Reboot system
  11. Connect your phone to your computer and copy back your backed-up internal SD card data to the internal SD card.
  12. Repartitioning is completed. Enjoy your 8GB of additional app storage space.

From CM12.1 or another virtual partitioned ROM:
  1. Factory reset (to avoid problems)
  2. Flash ROM and GApps

Updating to a newer version:
  • Just flash ROM and reboot.

Yes virtual partition. Follow the instructions in the second post.

@bryan2894 - I appreciate all your hard work and really would like to help test this, but I can't realistically do so. My skyrocket is my daily driver, so I can't repartion to test this ROM, then repartition back to original to use my more-or-less stable Lollipop, the repartition to test the next version of your ROM, ... I do not think I can go back to another ROM after doing the virtual repartition, without undoing the virtual repartition each time, right? (I never tried Sultan's Lollipop with virtual re-partitioning, for much the same reason.)

@bryan2894 Tried installing twice last night,phone booted up too a screen talking about encryption error..cannot finish install. Says hit reset button at bottom of page to do a factory reset and try again. Hitting reset takes you back too recovery.

Great ROM so far. The only thing I can't get to work is calling someone. Every time it says Cellular network is unavailable. Any ideas how to fix

From another rom they had booting but then it would reboot at start up.
If you're getting a bootloop at the initial setup wizard
Remove this folder with TWRP:
/system/priv-app/com.qualcomm.location/

New build is up. The issue with receiving calls should be resolved
Just flashed. Incoming calls works great. ROM is bitter smooth but, still can't make calls. Still says "mobile network unavailable". Anyway I can fix this myself?? Other than that, GREAT ROM!!
