Yes, my question is "Do we need PIT files while flashing stock ROMs?"
Some of us are using PIT files while flashing stock roms (eg. from 4.0.3 to 4.0.4 and vice versa). Is it necessary? In which situations?
I would like to receive some feedback from the experts of this device.
As i know pit files come with some not all stock roms and if found should be flashed with the rom and in this case the repartition option is checked in odin (this is the only situation that we need to check repartition)

when you downloaded an official stock rom and you are not provided with a pit file you only have to use the .tar file in (insert in PDA)

Here you go kc1 clean up file with pit http://sourceforge.net/projects/kc1cleanup/files/hawk.zip/download after you flash this just Odin kd1 to be fully stock.

Search for the gb starter pack. Download the kc1 bootloaders. Odin both files. Once that is complete, Odin kd1 by whitehawk.
another route is to Odin kj6 stock.

OP, did you fix your problem? if tmobile is sending you replacement phone, then you still have a week to fix this.
Learning curve goes way up when you have 2 phones to work with

From a badic perzpective, KD1 is Froyo. KJ6 is Gingerbread. KJ6 is the latest release. Better performance, a bit weaker wifi, better battery life.

Is it possible to flash from jellybean back to ice cream sandwich?
Say if I flash from a jellybean miui to cwm10 then cwm9 then miui ICS does anyone know if it will take or are the system structure too different?
Or just flash to ICS miui, just format system, caches and remount then flash, ICS miui
Or the only answer is to Odin to gingerbread and work my way up, again?

Sir, please do not post question threads in the Development Section, Thank you and Moved
You have to go to stock...there is no bml (old file system format) conversion script at the moment

More specifically you have to use an external program like heimdall or Odin to repartition your device.
There is a link in the OP of cm10 for a Odin method with PIT (partition file)

Yes, I have done this. ( not with odin, only used CWM )
What I have found is from ICS you have to flash a GB rom, as in a new, fresh flash. Then if you have a backup of that rom you can successfully restore it thru CWM.

I soft bricked my phone on accident, So I decided to un soft brick it. So, I returned it to it's stock form. But, I installed the Rogers stock form. When I was suppose to install the AT&T stock form. Is there a way for me to change from Android Version 2.3.5 GINGERBREAD.RUXKJ7 to a 4.0.3 ICS ?
You can use Odin with the correct ics stock rom to get it back to where you want. See vicom's stickies.(in development section) They have what you need.

I tried installing the Stock files listed there multiple time, I keep getting errors.
Sammobile.com has the official files. You'll need to extract the tar.md5 file out of the zip using 7-zip and flash that with Odin.
You should also try a different usb port first as they seem to be touchy.
If Odin recovers your device you're still ok

Recently i flashed cm10 alpha 4 and got a firmware error. I was on XXKPM but it ended up being DDLE1. I wanted to return to stock andI read the guide here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1133787
However I don't know about the repartion thing . Is it selected for me and I should flash XXKPE directly ? My computer is dead and I want to know how to flash to stock so I can get working once I get my computer.

Can I restore my tab 7.7 to original ROM or official ROM if I already install a custom ROM .currently I'm using a unofficial jellybean custom ROM by cyanogen mod.if someone here know how to do .please let me know the way to do?thx
If you have cwm recovery, backup your original rom to external sdcard before flashing custom rom. In case you want to revert back, just restore it. If you have flashed custom rom before making a backup,then you need to download stock rom from sam mobile and flash it using pc odin or mobile odin.

If you mean, how you got it from store. Flash a complete official firmware package from samfirmware or Samsung-updates . Use Odin tool, and ensure it's the correct firmware for device.
There are lots of guides/stickies around with the info you need. Using Odin is the same method for just about any Samsung device.
You would have found the answer with a little searching, rather than opening a new thread?
