Could someone produce a partition layout editor?

[Guest xiaoyaoswim]

As we know, the stock partition layout of Skate is terrible – very limited space for data. The good news is it could be repartition by a simple TPT process with proper layoutfiles. I have noticed that Amphoras from this thread has analysed and illustrated the stock layout as follows;

Recovery:   	6MB


Boot:       			4MB

Splash:             			1.5MB

Misc:       			0.5MB

Cache:                  57.5MB

System:             			220MB

Userdata:   			162.5MB

OEM:                    1MB

Persist:                        1.5MB

He has also successfully further modified that layout by hex editing. Since there is already a nice little tool available for Blade by ricardopvz I’m wondering if some programmer could make a similar partition layout tool for our Skate.

I will try to make one but it'll have to be in vb.net - the only programming language I know lol.

do the blade libra tools not work?

Thanks in advance.

I think the partition sizes for blade and skate are slightly different.

I thought it made no difference in the end result whether vb.net or C# was used.

Most of the logic can be Kanged from disaseembling ricadopvz's tool

and looking at the partition resize shell script of wbaw's.
