Hi all,
I've so far stayed away from flashing through ODIN,
but I'm looking into it now and have a quick question.
I understand that the .pit files handle the partitioning of the internal SD (right?),
but what's the difference between the various versions of the .pit files?
s1_odin_20100512.pit
s1_odin_20100513.pit
s1_odin_20100803.pit
Cheers!
anyone?

I read somewhere (on xda dev) that the difference between them is that they are for different partition sizes.

That's what I understand as well.
Most of the leaked firmware is running on 512 PIT so leave the others alone for now.
As far as I know .pit files are only used to tell Odin which file names to program to which "partition".
Even if separate images are used, Odin will treat them as a single image.
For example .pit file tells Odin to program modem.bin file to MODEM "partition", zImage to KERNEL "partition", etc.
If you use separate images (3-pack, CODE, MODEM, CSC), you can for example put CSC to CODE, MODEM to CSC and vice versa. Nothing odd will happen as long as you don´t tamper with the file names inside the tarballs.
OK, cheers
Can someone tell me if the 512.pit file is generic?
Willl the one that has been used on the Galaxy S 1900 work with the Nexus S GT-I9020.
The .pit file I have is named: s1_odin_20100512.pit
This Is very important as it may help a couple hundred people restore there IMEI numbers and un-bricking them.
Thanks in advance
If you go to samfirware.com you will see which goes with which firmware, 512 is just the most common, dont risk it...check!

There's a post about .pit files right here on xda. It's even on i9000 android developpement. I think it will help you sort this out.

+1 a quick use of the much ignored search function would have revealed a wealth of knowledge on this subject. In fact a whole thread dedicated to it, with many more definitive answers, other those posed in this thread.
Used search and be informed.

Next time search. This isn't a development thread.
As stated 512 is the pit to use in nearly every case.

Seems to me in far less space you could have provided the link and the key terms you used in search to find it. That would have been informative, productive and helpful. Something to think about

I guess you need some help, but no one can do anything for you, as we are not mind readers or have crystal ball , so full details , if you want help
Hi there,
sorry if the question has been answered before. I searched for it but was not able to find it.
here is my question: is there an overview of all the firmwares of the galaxy s? Maybe in the wiki or in a thread?
I'm not so familiar with all those JPM, JM1 and JPA stuff and I don't know how to read a code like I9000XAJF3 and what's behind it.
would be helpful for me and great to have something like that.
regards
memamu
The Best place to see most of the firmware information is samfirmware.com my
friend. If you look in the Firmware tab on their website it lists nearly all of the
multi-language roms in chronological order. And the flashing process you need to
use,etc.
If you had the New Froyo 2.2 I9000XXJPM
I9000 is obviously the Model
XX is the Region/Network Carrier
J = Year
PM = Version Number
Thanks allot...
that really helps to see some light in the forrest of firmware versions.
regards
memamu

As I own a Galaxy Tab with Android 2.2 I would like to change to Android 2.3.3
The Basband version in use is: P1000DXJJ2
Kernel version: 2.6.32.9 root(at)SE-S604 #1
Build number: FROYO.DXJK2
Now my question is: could I just manual upgrade to version 2.3.3 which I had downloaded, in total 4 files:
P1000XXJQ1_P1000XXJQ1_P1q000XXJPZ.zip
dbdata.zip
gt-p1000_mr_PIT.zip
ODIN3 v1.83.exe
Could someone please tell me it's ok to use that files or, if not, point me in the right direction.
Thank you so much for any answer.
This rom is for european galaxy tab, but I think you can flash it on an asian version of the tab. Look at the development section for this rom.

Can I ask two questions...
(a) Where did you get the download from and (b) have you installed the ROM and how did it go?

To your question:
a: androidtotal. com/manually-install-update-samsung-galaxy-tab-to-android-2.3.3-gingerbread/
b: I asked my question in the OP before I try to install!
I do NOT like to brick my Tab with an unsupported Rom! That's why I ask upfront the Rom could be used on my Asian Tab or not.

Unfortunate, I couldn't post in the Dev section right now because of my post count.
As my Tab is an unlocked Tab with Quadband and 3G (900/1900/2100 MHz) I hope that everything will works with the Europe version, I just want to be sure not to brick the device!

You shouldn't have been posting in the dev section anyway, that is for posting of dev projects/reference.

No, you are wrong. We have a Q&A forum, try using some common sense. Do you honestly think that its sane to allow questions or other type of topics to be created in the dev section? It would just lead to a complete un-organized mess and browsing the dev section would be a pain in the arse.

First at all: The Q&A forum haven't gave an answer within a week or more! Do you really think that's OK?
Secondly: My question were for the Gingerbread Version (Overcome Beta) which is running in the Dev forum and therefore I really do believe that those forum were the right place for to ask questions about that specific version.
After NOT getting an answer in the Q&A forum, I done more researches and found the Samsung Stock Rom (NOT on this forum) and was asking my final question in the Samsung Galaxy Tab General forum.
My remark about the min. post count for to be able to post in the dev forum were just that: A REMARK.
Last but not least, this is a public forum and as long as I stay to the rules, I could post as I like and as it is allowed! There only the forum staff, means Admin's and Moderators who have the right to limit a action or posting ability of an 'normal' user and those will be done in case of an breach of the rules only.
I'm Administrator on one Board and Global Moderator on an other Board and believe me or not, I know what I'm talking about.
If you think that my post('s) are inappropriate, please feel free to report my post to the forum staff.
Have a nice day.

I updated the last night from 2.2 t0 2.3.3 and everything is fine now. It's quite a bit of improvement compare to Froyo.
Thanks for the info.
Hey pcinfo1, I'm searching around the forum, we are on the same stock ROM.
I like to know if its ok for me to flash to Overcome ROM v3.1.0-KRATOS???
Thanks!
Ok to flash overcome rom ONLY if you update to stock gingerbread 1st. You need the gb bootloaders installed otherwise you will end up with your tab hanging on the samsung logo. Thankfully overcome has the safe stock gb rom v5 that has the gingerbread bootloaders. All you need to do is find the modem.bin file for your region/carrier and you're set.

Hii, thanks for the reply mate. how do i find modem.bin file for my region/carrier?
I'm from Singapore and it should be considered as Asian set right? Thanks!

The reason there are no answers given sometimes is because the questions are so weak, or have been asked and answered soo many times.
If you post a question that doesn't get answered within a day (not within 30 minutes like some people expect), rethink your question.
Posts that have "Hi guys, I'm new" or "Help, I've bricked my tab" for titles tend to get passed over.
I was going to ask this question in development thread but due to being new here wasn't allowed.
There is a *.pit file with this new firmware N7000 XXLA1. Is there no need to use it when flashing with pc odin (pda=code, phone=modem, csc=multicsc).?
if you had posted in the dev section your post would have been moved as you are asking a question not developing for the note
have you looked thru the various la1 threads in the dev section?

No, you dont need to select pit file

You could've asked this question (if you had more than 10 posts) in the Dev section under the XXKLA1 thread, but you can't create a new thread for it. Just to be clear
Cheers guys..running the new firmware. Yes i read the posts about the new firmware in the dev( thanks dr.). As i only looked at kl7 and kl8 before which didnt have a pit file i was curious what difference it would make if i included it(also read up on pit files in this forum - not that im much more clued up about them now tho). Post #5 - i will reach 10 soon. Thanks

Pit file is partition index table file, only needed when you have to select're partition'. And this shudn't b select unless special instruction provided, lots of device bricked by this.
ok i understand! Thanks doc!
I still have to post here as i do not have 10 posts yet.
I just flashed my galaxy note to KK9 and rooted it successfully.
installed mobile odin and tried flashing it with LA1 (open file, code...)
phone rebooted and did a few things and the this happened:
in small green writing ('logo_q1.jpg' draw failed) - can't start the phone or anything - it just returns to this.
I can get back into download mode and i assume i can reflash with a firmware
Please can you help?! What went wrong
Title says it all. Looking for the radio/modem(whichever you want to call it, just one file) for the GT-N7000.
I feel it was much easier to find for my SGH-I717.
So folks, if you have preferably the ODIN flashable please hook me up.
Any or all versions would be fine as I plan to host them on my cloud and put a post in the general forum to help people don the road find them easier.
Thanks folk! :good:
