For the unaware, the super partition contains the ODM, system, system_ext, vendor, and product partitions within itself. This is the reason why it is the largest among all the firmware files. Moroever, you should always flash these files in the FastbootD Mode, as opposed to the normal Fastboot Mode. However, inspite of taking caution at every step, you might still come across quite a few issues, such as the FAILED (remote: ‘Not enough space to resize partition’) error. Fortunately, there exists a handy method to rectify these issues- all that you need to do is just delete and then. re-create the logical partitions on your OnePlus 8T. And in this guide, we will show you how to do just that. Follow along.
