Sounds like a dead nand phone.

Can you flash a recovery through Odin?
If you have no PIT or you are having issues try this out. You will need the appropriate PIT file for your device. Just google search and download one mate.
The correct procedure to flash PIT in Odin is to download a 3 part firmware and the PIT file. Put all 4 files in there relevant location, tick re-partition in Odin and then start.

Just search Google for I9305 pit file mate. You will find one. That's how I got mine
Here's a pit file for you. Make sure it's the right one for your model. I have no idea!

Oh wow, you just flashed a wrong pit file... That's bad.
You don't have a i9305 like that guy, you have a i9300, which is a different device. He warned you. Send it to Samsung now

Nah, it is a pit file from i9300, I own both devices.
It's definitely for the i9300 but I'm not sure if he has the 16, 32 or 64GB model. You are right though, the best to do would be to send the phone to Samsung.
Ohhhh crap. Your device is now beyond self-repair and will require a send-in to a Sammy guy.

Just a quick question about the PIT file. im not to savy about what it exactly is, from what i can tell it is the system file and atm all the current EU firmwares use EXT4.PIT.
Does this mean i never have to update the PIT file as long as the firmware uses EXT4.PIT?
im going to update my s2 to I9100XEKE1 later and when i flash it in odin i also put in the PIT file what would it do?
thanks

hope i dont get told off for bumping ^^ getting close to home time and was hoping to find out beforei get home.

Per the instructions in the thread, DO NOT TOUCH PIT FILE.
thank you for the responce pulser, i will leave the .PIT alone when i flash. Its like one of them things your told not to touch so you wanna touch it or at least learn more about it.
i'll just read more about it, but wont touch it. thanks again

A PIT file is just instructions explaining the partition layout. You must always use a PIT file matching the current partition layout (i.e. the orignal PIT file used to partition the device) unless you are repartitioning. If you are repartitioning then every you must re-download everything (PDA, CSC, MODEM, etc.). You also need to ensure the PIT file is compatible with what you are downloading. Some PIT files might use partitions too small, for example, for the firmware you are downloading.
Yep. Pit is just a layout of the drive, nothing more or less. If you reflash the same pit, you've done nothing. Its a partition which comes after the PBL and helps it locate a bootable SBL.
Question please regard PIT
Hope this is not too much of a thread drift but may relate potentially to the PIT file.
I think I may have unwittingly changed the PIT file when using ODIN.
I definitely placed a PIT file in the PIT window.....doh
Would this cause my WiFi to not work? I have tried a number of ROMs and they all work fine apart from the WiFi, which is always off and then shows error when you click to switch it on.
If this is the case that the PIT file has corrupted this, how should I go back and correct it?
Cheers
hi there,
i flash my phone with a wrong pit file, and i run into a problem. its already fixed again by my self, but i want to share my experience with you, maybe someone can use it too.
you can download stock- roms, odin and pit files for your phone on sammobile.com. i found a explanation on samdownloads.de with follow information's:
- pit file with 220 on the end is for 16gb version
- pit file with 322 is for 32bg version
- pit file with 329 is for 64gb version
HOLD ON! This information's are wrong for me, and that's why i ran into this problem.
so i download a rom, and i choose the 322 file for my device and start with the flash process. result from that was, that odin hangs on step, SET PARTITION, and that was it. before, i already deleted the other pit files, while i was thinking i didn't need it. so the first was, i investigate some times to find the pit files on the net again and i start to flash with all files, one after the other..
my phone hangs with 220 pit file, with 322 pit file but i get it successfully flashed with 329 file, which if i believe to samdownloads.de was the file for the 64gb version of the phone.
in my opinion and if i look on my experience right now, for international i9300 32bg version the right pit file was the 329. after flashing it again, my phone was again fully stock, everything was fine, my 25gb free space was there, so its fine.
maybe i can help someone with this information's..

I've had my S3 since may 25th MAY and done tons of flashing of ROMS. Never have i ticked the pit as it was clearly mentioned in all the flashing tutorials. There is no need to do it and dont need to encourage others to do something which can hard brick their phones.

its only as a information, maybe somebody runs into the same problem..
It's true that's it's not advised to play with pit files, but I think it would be better if you explained to people why.
Pit files are to be used only when you need to restore partition layout on the phone. That means after you mess up partitions and not before. Bu some guys just ignore warnings like this.

The why is generally that they use the wrong PIT files .
One of the stupid reasons why is going to forum xxxx downloading firmware from them then coming here to ask why has it broke my phone .

Nothing you can do. If you flash a wrong pit file then your phone is broken. Hard bricked.
The only possibility for you is finding someone with a JTAG box. Try one of those phone repair shops. AFAIK, that's your only hope.
Flashing a wrong pit file is pretty much the worst possible thing you can do to your phone. How the hell did you manage to flash the wrong pit file? Didn't you double, triple, quadruple check that it was the correct file before flashing?
Please don't tell me that you knew that the file was meant for another phone? I've actually seen people do that... :facepalm:

It is possible because people usually think in terms of branding. Not aware different models may exist in different regions. Example the note gen1 has Korean and Chinese and US versions, each has a different model number.

HELP i think flashed the wrong .tar root file for my Galaxy J7 Pro
Hey man,
XDA doesn't trust me enough to let me make my own post and as I'm writing this I'm supposed to be studying for the 3 exams I will be having.
So,
I rooted my phone susing ODIN and the same root file a few months ago on Android 7.1 and it worked. I used it with TWRP recovery and everthing was fine.
Then the Android Oreo update was released for my phone, finally, and I hooked my phone up to my laptop and downloaded the firmware using Samsung's new Software called SmartThings.
Now I had stock ROM, but my device was recognized as rooted and modified, so couldn't use a few apps like Samsung Health and Pay. Then, without thinking, I put my phone in Download Mode and flashed the SAME .tar root file with ODIN, and now my phone won't boot to the pulsating Samsung logo and is stuck in the bootloader
wanted to say that Odin said PASS when .tar file was downloaded in the AP slot
In download mode,
Download Mode says:
Current Binary: Custom
System status: Official
FAP LOCK: OFF
OEM LOCK: OFF
Secure Download: Enabled
WARRANTY VOID: 1 (0x0303)
I have access to STOCK recovery and download mode, and I've already tried factory resetting phone and wiping cache. I don't want to take more rash steps without someone knowledgeable guiding me. and I cant find any other forum to post on because I'm not a high enough member.

If you go to samfirware.com you will see which Pit's go with each firmware, 512 is the most common, dont risk it...check!
I'm pretty sure they are available there as well...
and do not !!!...change the file names inside the tarballs....= instant brick...IMHO
And I did a little searching for you...see if this helps as well....g

boot into stock recovery and do a factory reset, forgot what its called exactly but you get what i mean. its takes a while to boot and may even go through the boot cycle twice so give it some time.

whatever you're thinking of doing - don't do it, because you clearly don't know what you're doing. You'll end up with a useless piece of plastic.

I need the pit file because it asks for one to flash a ROM using heimdall...
I need to use heimdall because I want to go back to XXELLA, I'm running MIUI at the moment but wanna go back to standard.
I do know what I'm doing, I'm fully capable using ODIN but never used heimdall before as I only have a mac at home.
I do know what I'm doing,
PIT files are generally on sammobile.com as part of the firmware .
Be 100% sure before using a PIT .
jje
I've just remembered, as I have my phone working again I can use Mobile ODIN, transfer the file across, PDA - then find the file and do it?
Is this correct?
In fact.
I downloaded the XXELLA zip file from sammobile
Do I put it in Kernel, recovery, system, data, cache, param, modem, hidden or ota/update zip?
Nobody?
Anyone?

It should be available in any 4-file firmware's CSC package. This file is named wrong, so please don't try to use it for anything.
Here's the correct pit-file taken from 4-file A510FD firmware. Turns out it's the same as for A510F.

Where and how did you get a 4 file firmware for A510FD? I have tried searching for it but didnt find anything. May be I was doing something wrong. And more over how did you get PIT file from CSC in the 4 file firmware. Can you help me understand?
Any help will be appreciated.
Also you said the naming is wrong and hence dont use it. Why does the file name matter so much? In the tutorial I have linked in OP they dont seem to stress on the naming. Any thoughts?

Can this PIT file be used to flash any nougat also?
Firmware is downloaded with samfirm. 4-file always got the pit in CSC package, and it also resets device compared to the 1 file firmware which doesn't include pit.
Open the csc tar.md5 as archive, and you will find cache.img, hidden.img, and the pit-file.
Pit should be same for all firmwares except for some carrier specific firmwares that includes files in hidden partition. They also got their own pit with a different name.
To be honest I don't think a pit with wrong name even can be used. Odin would deny to flash it cause it wouldn't match the pit on device.
