Does anyone have the PIT file for use with the factory VZW Firmware. I found a copy of the original firmware to load with Heimdall and can get it to basically bring up a Samsung logo and I can get to download mode only.
I have tried 512 and 513 both give the same results. I can see the device when I do an ADB devices poll and I can reboot the phone into recovery and download but recovery hangs at the samsung logo as well.
Not a full blown brick since I can talk with it and work with it, I just need the correct files to reload.
Thanks in advance!!!
Anybody?
Are there any other possibilities as to what could be the root cause if its not the partition table? suggestions for ways to test?
Major Update!!!
Used Odin 1.7 to repartition with the P1 Pit, then switched to Heimdall to load a Verizon backup posted on another forum.
After about 5 mins in heimdall load the phone rebooted and now gives me access to the recovery mode but even after a wipe and reset the phone seems to bootloop at the verizon logo.
Definitely now know that for future Verizon is running the P1 Pit or at least close to it. 512, 513, and 803 would only freeze at samsung.
Edit.
I also now have regained access to the ADB shell, before I had adb and could see the devices but Shell came back with a "cannot locate in /system/bin/su"
Anybody have any suggestions on getting passed the revolving the Verizon bootup? just loops and vibrates.
Have you made any progress on ur tab? I am in the same exact situation, everytime i flash with heimdall 1.1.0 or 1.1.1 and the verizon stock rom found in the forums, my tab gets the phone and computer yellow triangle warning, the only way i can get it out is by using odin 1.70 and either the p1_add_hdden or the 909 pit to get it back to the verizon logo but with the vibrations and looping. If anyone has a known good pit file please please post it or direct me on how to extract one from my brothers tab.
Unfortunately my nandroid backup fails the md5 when i try using odin and im missing using it sooooo much :-(. thank you in advance for any help and i just have to say i try not to post as much as possible and do all the research i can but i am hitting a wall here and ive tried for days now
I am also in the same boat. I need a working PIT file
This is what you'll have to do
1. Turn off your device
2. Hold up volume button + power button
3. As soon as you see the Samsung logo, release the power button
4. With the up and down volumne button move up and down on the menu and select wipe data/factory reset option
5. Then press home
6. Finally, wait until it finish and select the reboot system now option and then press home
1. Make sure you have the drivers installed. If not search and download the Heimdall application and extract contents to a directory and look for the drivers directory. Then select Samsung USD composite device and then Install the driver.
2. You'll need to search for the correct stock file for youtr tab, then load it using the Heimdall program, follwing this instructions:
- The zImage goes in both the Kernel AND Recovery slot.
- The system.rfs goes in Factoryfs
- The Param.lfs goes in Param.lfs
- And the cache goes in the cache slot.
3. Finally hit Start
4. When it finish, you got to follow my post above
Bump for this thread. I need to restore my tab and need a working pit file. Anyone figure this out?
I'm in the same boat, got my tab jtagged and now need working Verizon .pit file to repartition. Has anybody got one yet?
Me too, somebody help me to find .PIT for verizon galaxy tab 7
BUMP... dl mode works heimdall flashes correctly but even after recovery mode cache and data wipe it still bootloops with the triple vibrate cant get past it... i assume it has something to do with the partitions from rfs to ext4 sooooooooo please can someone find a working cdma pit file
I'm in the same boat as you guys, really need a valid verizon pit file after a bad flash. Any help would be much appreciated!!

If you can go to Recovery mode, try if you can successfully do a factory wipe. If you see error messages while doing factory wipe. Please include it to you post.
Please also specify what version of android you had last.
Download heimdall 1.3.1 then install. You can down pit file from it.

That worked. Thanks a million :good:
I know this is a wide issue on many devices, but i could not find one for the Galaxy Note.
So here it is (and sorry if the answer is allready out there):
i tried to root and it got stuck on bootscreen (the samsung logo). I have figured out (or atleast i thing) that the OS is missing, or something like that. So i downloaded it from a forum page here on XDA. The thing is i can't figure out how to put it on the phone. I tryed using ODIN. Any clue of an easy way to do this?
i have a problem cz i did PIT with u1_02_20110310_emmc_EXT4.pit
and now my phone is stuck but i still can enter download modem and odin read the phone
Thanks in advance
i have N7000JPKK2
Ok so what you do is put sgn pit file in pit in odin choose stock firmware and after flash a cf root kernel which has custom recovery through odin after flashing is done press volume up+home+power button it will load recovery from there select wipe data/app and advance,wipe dalvik cache and fix permissions and then it will boot normally..

After installing the lastest "S.U.R.F.A.C.E" ROM on my GT-I9000 I'm presented with the Galaxy S logo and nothing else,
Tried and tried vol up + home + power number of times now with no avail.
Everything was working fine before was able to boot into clockwork recovery ect, unfortunately I do not have a usb cable so can't try odin any help would be great.
Grab yourself a jig from ebay or the likes, or make one
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=819551
It will boot into download fine the problem I have is it won't boot into recovery is there any way I can wipe it or does it look like I am in need of a cable?
Then reflash back to stock using Odin
What were you flashing from as surface is an oxeded rom, not dexeded.

clockwork recovery, i take it I messed up here so
No, meant what rom were you on before your flash? Stock?
oh sorry got the phone of a friend looked like a custom samsung rom, build version was easyprojectv2 if that rings any bells?
Looks like the problem was caused by trying to flash a odexed rom over a deodexed rom, or not having the correct bootloaders for the new rom. Normally before a flash I would return to stock (firmware from sammobiles.com) first via ODIN, do all the wipes, flash a kernel so you have a nice clean install to 'abuse'. Then I would add any custom rom from there be it by ODIN or by cwm.
Grab yourself a usb lead, nice clean flash and start again.
Ok so I've 3 file here:
APBOOT_I9000XWJW1_CL788890_REV03_user_low_ship.tar.md5
CODE_I9000XWJW1_CL788890_REV03_user_low_ship.tar.md5
KERNEL_I9000XWJW1_CL788890_REV03_user_low_ship.tar.md5
s1_odin_20100803.pit (not sure if i need this as was in the root of the odin folder not the firmware?)
Where do the other 3 file go PDA PHONE CSC???
I am also stuck on the same front, i donwloaded rom from samfirmware but it only had PDA part and nothing else, please suggest which official rom should i download??

I would go this way mate, first grab JVT from sammobiles.com ( register first)
Flash that using ODIN
Comes with 3 files, CSC, PHONE and PDA
PDA file goes to PDA in ODIN
PHONE goes into MODEM in ODIN
CSC goes in CSC in ODIN.
Also select PIT file, should be 512 on the PIT section on ODIN, hit start and it will flash then reboot.
Then open ODIN again, connect phone and flash your KERNEL to the PDA section of ODIN.
Then grab this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1117579
and flash using cwm.
Your then on JW1 all rooted and ready to play.
put the "APBOOT_I9000XWJW1_CL788890_REV03_user_low_ship.tar" file into the PDA and flashed it. Everything seems to be working fine might stick with the stock for a while never really needed to be rooted.
ok i just popped the SIM and have no network access when i tap on Mobile Networks in the setting it tells me to insert a SIM????
the firmware i had was wrong didnt have a modem. Downloaded a jvt as buttwad said flashed an now everything working perfect now. cheers mate!
Hello,
I've a "non commercial" version of a GTab 8.9.
This tab is running by default Android 3.1. I would like to update to Android 4.0.4. Kies doesn't want indicating my tablet doesn't support the update (i don't know it was 4.0.4 version or another)
I tried to use the standard : Odin + the new firmware. The tablet is unlocked and rooted.
Each time that I tried I get the error : "can't nand write" :-/ I tried all current stuff to fix this issue : change cable, PC, odin version (1.83, 1.85, 3.07, 3.09). I tried to change recovery with succss
but impossible to change rom. I found a link on tsar dot com (sorry I'm too young here to post link) to reformat tab and I put the pit file : this has worked....but now : i can't access to the recovery. I can only open the download mode...but I can't do anything and I don't have others files described ont the following link
XDA's guy are ones to save me !!
thanks by advance (sorry for my poor english)

Thanks for your reply. I tried this first but it didn't work because when I want "start" with the good firmware (7300), the md5 check works but that's all. When odin want write boot.img or other file, i get an error "Can't write" and odin stops.
As this method didn't work I try with the tsar dot com solution. Hoping that's can help me.
Thanks a lot.

I've a similar issue in /data partition (it can't be writtable after a try to flash with Odin from a virtual machine) and I fixed it with the PIT file to repartition, reflash stock firmware and then a wipe/factory reset from stock recovery (I think it did a format)...
I try to put pit file. It's works as I told in my first post. But I can't flash the firmware with a standard stock rom (apparently). Can you tell me tools and roms that you used to fix the issue exaclty ?

I'm not familiar with heimdall tool but I know that it should be used with Galaxy S devices:
What is Heimdall?
Heimdall is a cross-platform open-source tool suite used to flash ROMs onto Samsung Galaxy S devices.

What I remember is Heimdall doesn't work with my P7310 and it don't let me do anything.
Anyway, plug into a Windows machine running Odin 1.85 (I think this version it's fine) your tab, press 10 seconds UP and power button and see if your tab is detected. In that case try to flash stock package again.
Some time ago it happened to me with a Galaxy Ace phone, when phone is booting screen was off but the phone enters into download mode anyway and you could flash whatever you want.
A last shot for you could be disassemble your tab and pull off battery. Wait some minutes and then pull on again. Try to start in download mode with tab plugged into your computer. If you don't have enough knowledge to disassemble your tab (and I can assure you of that it's not easy) maybe you need to bring it to Samsung support.

Ok, so I don't know what could happen when I tried it, I think last time was in 2012 or maybe early 2013...
Hi, after a failed rooting my s3 blocked, i tryed to put on the I9300XXALE8_I9300ITVALE7_ITV (i'm from italy), but now is blocked on the Samsung logo. Also when i go in download mode it says
Odin mode
Product name : GT-I8190
Custom binary donwload : YES (17 counts) (ye i tryed 17 times to fix it)
Current binary : custom
System status : Official
So i have some questions : Can i send it to assistance and they can repair it (with warranty)? , should i try to re download the I9300XXALE8_I9300ITVALE7_ITV file? ( i tryed with 3 versions of odin, with 2 of them it says : failed, with the newest it says : pass but it blocks on Samsung logo)
Or there is something other that i can do?
(sry bad english)
Are you flashing a i9300 firmware to a i8190?
No wonder why it doesn't work.

+1 Just find the ROM you want to install here http://live.samsung-updates.com/index.php?device=GT-I8190 then download and flash this http://download.chainfire.eu/448/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.99r5.zip and finally go and install this https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.chainfire.supersu (or update if you have it installed after you flash the file above). I can root any phone with this simple method
NOTE : It doesn't matter which country you're from, you can flash any firmware you like, so why not be it the latest one available for your device (ANF3 at the moment)? You can still change language to Italian after flashing so there's really no difference between regions

I've never rooted a phone so I was just wondering how to do it like this? I've read some guides but it's really unclear still, one that I tried simply didn't work (the one where you flash CWR with Odin as the first step). Can you/someone tell me how to do this exactly, please? This is what I'm thinking atm:
1) If I already have the latest version I'm happy with, do I still need to download that version again or can I just go ahead with the SuperSU flashing part?
2) How do I in practice flash the SuperSU zip file? I currently have Odin v.3.0.7 and Minimal ADB and Fastboot installed on my PC. Thanks for any help!

If you don't have the latest firmware on your phone, download it from the link I gave (it's a .md5 file). Now go to Developer Options in your phone's settings and tick USB Debugging. Power off your phone. After that enter download mode on your phone by pressing power+volume down+home button while turning it on. You'll see a big message on your screen saying "Downloading, don't unplug target". Now plug your s3 mini into the pc and start Odin. Select PDA and find the .md5 file from before. Make sure that f.reset time and re-partition are unchecked and then press start. Once it's done odin will say "pass" and your phone will reboot. Congrats, you now have the latest firmware on your s3 mini
Now in order to root it, you need a custom recovery so let's go
On Google search "TWRP 2.7.1.1 Android-Andi xda" and download it from the attachments of his post (it's a .md5 file again). Again turn off the phone and enter Download Mode like before. Now do the same steps with Odin as the first time (with the firmware), but this time select the TWRP.md5 file instead of the firmware one in PDA section of Odin. Make sure all the options on the left are ticked/unticked exactly like the first time and hit Start. The "Pass" message should be displayed and the phone should reboot.
Congrats, you now have the latest TWRP Recovery on your s3 mini
And the last step - rooting it
Download the SuperSU.zip from the link in my post and copy it to your device's memory (internal or external). Now in order to enter Recovery Mode you need to turn off your phone and turn it back on by holding the power+volume up+home buttons until you see a "TeamWin" message on your screen. This recovery is touch based so just select install, choose the SuperSU.zip file and flash it. Reboot the phone.
Now you're rooted and on the latest firmware arty:
For future updates do the same. Just change the firmware .md5 file with the latest one available. The rest is the same xD
Man, I got tired ...
