But when I reboot, grub fails with: error: attempt to read or write outside of partition.
This sounds like the repartitioning failed.

Can you also see the size? IIRC you see partition information with (grub) ls (hd0)
the recovery guides say to set the root and prefix variables and then load the normal module. I can execute the commands: set root=(hd0,gpt2) set prefix=(hd0,gpt2)/boot/grub2 and list the files in the various directories - normal.mod exists in /boot/grub2/arm-efi/ - but when I try: insmod normal I still get the error: attempt to read or write outside of partition. Somewhat interestingly, if I miss-type the prefix (say; /boot/grub) the error changes to a "file not found" one. I was hoping someone might have some ideas about what to try next.
One thing you could try is check on a working system what the partition table and file system look like. It almost sounds like the ext4 partition got resized, but the partition table is still on the old, small size.
