Why do you want to use a PIT file .
Rule is do not use PIT only for experienced users .
Three part firmware is on samfirmware .
For warranty flash stock firmware from link given if rooted or custom rom reset rom counter with USB jig is the method used .

These are official.

do u know what is ur CSC ?

I think its also fine if you simply flash a stock firmware via recovery and then flash a stock kernel through odin. no need for anything else afaik

You don't need a "3 part" FW, there is no need for all "parts" being seperate.
The ROMs in Intratech's thread contain everything needed, you can say "all 3 parts are packed into the one file".
Just flash a matching one of those.

Sorry mate,bit busy.
Unzip file.No password needed.You will see a file that ends in tar.md5.Put this file in PDA in Odin and select START without selecting anything else.When flash is finished do a factory reset.
Done.

[Q] I need 3 part firmware for GT-I9300 GS3

Hi guys,

What kind problem?

Spontaneous reboots. And other. My firmware was corrupted when I installed the CM9. I tried the reset and wipe. But with no result. I tried also with more flash of the stock firmware.
Sorry for my bad English.
3 part firmware is found at sammobile.com

Here is the downloadlink for a unbranded Italian rom http://www.hotfile.com/dl/160760211/17a8084/I9300XXALF6_I9300ITVALF1_ITV.zip.html.
Extract it once (from .rar to .tar), password sammobile.com and flash it with Odin v 3.04.
Its 1 file and put it in PDA, boot in downloadmode and flash it.
Unfortunately this is not necessary. To solve my problem it requires the firmware in 3 parts.
why 3 parts, 1 part will do!

How to solve it?
I had a similar issue when flashing something with Mobile Odin went wonky. I was able to get into download mode and flash a stock firmware via full Odin but after that I was stuck at the splash screen. I solved the problem by booting into Samsung recovery (vol up + home + Power) and performed a factory reset there. I was then able to boot into the OS and start from scratch.
Follow his method use one file

I didn't found it! If you have it please give me the link.
Just flash the corresponding firmware from SamFirmware.com
When finished, boot to the stock recovery and factory-reset the phone
If it still does not work, resume complaining about needing a 3-part firmware
Howver the firmwares on SamFirmware have the 3 files bundled in one flash-file, so just do it...

If you cannot find what you require then it may be worth asking on sammobile forum for what you require .
Only 3 part firmware i have ever seen is on sammobile although that was SGS1 and 2 models in the past presumed that sammobile supplied 3 part for SGS3 might be wrong as you are the only one ever mentioned 3 part firmware .
jje
You could've just flashed the corresponding firmware from samfirmware and followed through on the description to check if it works.
I'm sure there are people who could convert the 1-file firmware to a 3-file firmware for you but what would be the point given that the one file holds everything you need?

Flash stock rom after resurrection remix 1.9.1

Hi guys,
My friend's got a problem. He installed resurrection remix v 1.9.1 by westcrip 4.0.4 on his s2.
The kernel is:
3.0.31-siyah-v.3.2.4+
[email protected] #32
SMP PREEMPT Thu May 17 17:46:03
EEST 2012
He didn't do a backup before installing it and now he wants the original rom back. Could anyone here tell me exactly what he has to do?
He doesn't know anything about flashing roms etc and he did it as in the tutorial to get resurrection remix, so we need an easy tutorial (I don't own a s2 so I can't help him much).
His S2 has no branding.
Thx and please help!

Only your friend can know what firmware was on his phone before flashing the custom ROM. I suggest to use CheckFus to get the latest official firmware for the phone and then flash it using ODIN.

Using CheckFus is self-explanatory and for using ODIN there are already many excellent and easy to read guides here.
So CheckFus will tell which firmware is right for his device? It will tell exactly which firmware?
And could you post a link to a thread, where is explained how to flash the firmware using odin. Cause I don't understand anything about basebandkernel, and we don't know which firmware was there as he bought the device and which kernel and which baseband and whatever. Is there any tutorial for noobs?
Could you excatly post which firmware we need from here to get phone back on stock ics? We want a german firmware if possible. (I know you could just say ask google, but at xda heres a great community and I don't understand anything of odin and want to know which files exactly I have to download for phone, pda and cdc. That would be so great!)
Please help us!
Thx in advance!
Michi
EDIT:: I found this here: http://androidfirmwares.net/PhoneFirmware/Download/120
Can I download there and then I have to put them like this:
PDA: XWLPF
PHONE (Modem): XXLPX
CSC: OXILP6
?
And then get s2 to download mode?
And what about the kernel? There is this kernel on s2 right now:
3.0.31-siyah-v.3.2.4+

You will have to do quite a lot of reading. Start by reading the Stickies and then read this thread which explains how to use ODIN.
Remember: only fools rush in - take your time and read before flashing
Thanks a lot, but what about kernel now? We'll have to read the thread, but I just want to know if the firmware from android firmware was right and if I could flash the rom if I just put these 3 Phon,Pda and Csc in the fields and without repartition. So what about the kernel?
Sorry if I nerve you, but I'm a noob with s2/flashing etc and it's not my phone
Thx!

The kernel is part of the stock firmware.
So we just need to place these 3 files in the right order in odin (PDA: XWLPF, PHONE (Modem): XXLPX, CSC: OXILP6) and go in download mode on galaxy s2. Then we can flash the firmware which is stock? And then we can update via kies if possible and use kies and etc? there's nothing else to do? And after the we have warranty as if we have just bought it?
EDIT:: I downloaded it but in the 7z file there were only boot modem cache etc and these were iso files? What have I got to do? Where can I download just pda, phone and csc? I dont get that!
Pls help!

You can try www.sammobile.com for stock firmware too. You'll have to sign up, but it's worth it. You just search for the stock firmware for your device and flash through Odin. Do not use the repartition button or the pit file and you should be fine.

I doubt that, the 7z file contains one tar.md5 file. Do not untar it, no one said you should do so. For ODIN read and follow the instructions according to the link I posted in post #4. That thread tells you what to do with the firmware file.

extract the file u downloaded from samfirmware or checkfus
u will have two files in it (in Latest gb or ics)
insert it in pda and flash
and ur done
the kernel is included in the firmware ..
Thx guys now I hope this is my last question on this topic:
I read the guide and downloaded a firmware. Now I don't understand the thing with checkfus. Do I really need checkfus or can I just download this firmware for a s2, unbranded, bought on amazon and it's a german s2?
Can I only put this extracted .tar.md5 file in PDA Section in Odin, boot s2 into download mode and connect to pc. Then click start and everything should went fine?
I own a xperia mini pro and there I must flash kernel and then firmware, so at odin and s2 the kernel will be changed when I flash pda and is included in pda?
Sorry, I asked same before, but I don't really understood
Thx for your great answeres, xda is a super community!

CheckFus is used to download the latest firmware. As you have downloaded the firmware from somewhere else, you do not need CheckFus anymore.

Flash stock rom after resurrection remix
I just reflashed my samsung J-500H with the stock rom after gapps started crashing on resurrection remix. I had no problems going back to stock except the I had a boot loop for a few times my remedy was to do a data and factory reset on stock recovery. I will reflash RR after I find gapps that would work on my J5 Lollipop. Any suggestions?

[Q] Stock ROM.zip - where?

Hi to all members here, can i ask - where can i find stock rom for my region, but i want it to be zip so i can flash from phone, not computer and odin? Thanx in advance
You cannot do a 100% return to stock via zip. You MUST use Odin.
You can flash stock roms via zip but it will not affect bootloader etc needed to return to stock. Have you heard of Mobile Odin?
These are all odin flashable firmware list..
N.B. its not .zip files flashable via CWM.
Thanx both of you, i will use Odin, but where to find latest firmware and how to know which one is for my country?
(i live in Bulgaria, EU)

You have to sign up. Then you go to firmware > firmware
There are filters to fill in to get the right one for your country.
other possibility could be mobile odin. then you can flash the .tar files with your phone without pc
