can we use the pit file from gingerbread to odin stock kd1?
DON'T USE PIT FILES. Unless you've read somewhere with specific instructions on using a pit file, don't use it! Most of the time you'll only need a PDA file in Odin.
But to answer your question, I believe you're asking if you can odin back to KD1 from Gingerbread? Yes you can, if you're able to put your phone into download mode, you can Odin whatever rom (Odin-compatible rom) you want on it.
because i have that gingerbread boot loader on froyo.

Because kpe is came with full firmware that is (bootloader, pda, phone,csc)
And when you use pit file you need all these files
To unroot single pda file also works
If any problems facing then flash with pit+kpe
Correct me if I am wrong

why KPE+PIT
OK, first for all, we have 2 type of firmware.
1. one package .tar file.
2. component type firmware .tar file.
for one package type, you only see one tar file which are flash using odin place in the PDA box. this is the incremental patch from you current working phone. you find all the data still in place.
for the component type firmware, you will have 3 or 4 tar file to flash using odin and place it in respective box. you will need to reset you phone, all the data will gone.
so, why must using component type, if need to flash to stock. Becuase you already corropted the firmware.
1. you have change the recovery partition and rooted and with custome kernel.
2. you have converted to EXT4, (stock is rfs)
3. you have bootloop because the above you have done.
others which having same thing done but not at bootloop, its becuase their done the home work (search and read). this i'm very sure about it.
so, if you have the boot loop, mean you done some step wrong.
so to save you, follow the instruction on the link above you should be fine.
legend:
pit file - this is partition information table, to tell the odin and phone how to prepare the partition for flashing.
example: I9003_latona_20110114.pit
PDA tar: contant all the system partition.
example: I9003DXKF1-REV08-ALL-low-CL1020446.tar
CSC tar: contant of regional specified setting
example: GT-I9003-CSC-MULTI-OLBKB2.tar
Modem: contant the hardware setting.
example:MODEM_I9003DXKB2_REV_00_CL863799.tar
bootloader, do not use this, if you are not upgrading from Froyo to GB. as this is a very important portion of you phone. ( the name already tell you that, "boot" "loader") do not mass with it.
same as PC, when you infected by virus or you have done someting corrupted the file of windows, you will need a reformat or reinstall OS.
hence, for the phone, flash the KPE+PIT
same as PC, when you wanted to update the windows update, you will just click the update and the windows patch file will install, same as you flash the 1 package firmware.
that all, hope you can understant

no that "must" use KPE, it depend on your choose, as long as it is component type firmware, i use DXKF1, so far so good. and most importantly you can use it with pit file. note: 1 package tar file can not use with pit file.
if you want to solve the bootloop, either you do trouble shoot the rootcause, or close you eyes, and once and for all "reformat" your phone.
that why we need the pit.
hope you "already" know that.
BTW, i see no different on KPE on battery life. i use DXKP9 it is a GB, and flash Bam Kernel. battery life is good 1.5day per charge.
I'm new to this and need help using Odin. Is there a step by step video so I don't brick my phone? I'm trying to get the newest jb leak. I'm good up until I have to actually have to flash the Rom in Odin. I don't know what I'm supposed to do.. can anyone help me or walk me thru.
It's very easy. I was apprehensive too. Basically all you do is download drivers for this phone, download Odin and download your tar file. In Odin select pda, select your downloaded tar file, wait for the computer to analyze the tar file and show a com port, connect your phone and hit start. Openyoureyes has a sticky in the development thread that clearly details how to do all of this. Follow the steps and make sure you read all the details and you'll be fine.
Here's the thread.

If you just want to flash the ROM then use Odin, but if you want to root definitely go this way: http://droidmodderx.com/galaxys3/?page_id=159 after that download goomanager(twrp) or ez-recovery(CWM recovery) from the play store for a recovery. Then flashing after that is a piece of cake.

A tar file is the type of file you flash in Odin. You download the tar file on your computer..... Save it to the desktop or whatever is obvious and easy to find. In Odin select pda and browse for the file you just downloaded. I suggest you keep reading about this for a while before you try it.

The .tar file is the JB leak you downloaded. Its format is .tar so Odin can recognize it and flash it to your phone. If you were in the thread where the newest VZW JB leak was, it should be download #6, #7, or #8 depending on what you wanted to do. Suppose you only wanted a stock experience. You'd download #8. It comes in a .tar format so you can put it directly into Odin for flashing.
When you click on PDA, Windows Explorer should come up. Here, navigate to the directory where you downloaded the .tar (the ROM) and double click it. Now, next to PDA in Odin, it should show the name of the ROM.
ONLY do the PDA method with this JB leak. Don't (and I mean DON'T) touch Bootloader, Phone, or CSC in Odin. Only PDA.
This JB leak will NOT get rid of any of your data, applications, SD card, etc. Everything stays on your phone, just like an OTA.
If you have any more questions, feel free to ask!
Ok, thank you. Successfully flashed! Now I'd like to know how I root my phone and get gapps and what not

Also please stop providing the pit files. Many people use wron files and mess the device!
Odin gets the pit mapping from the device itself.!

It is really useful for me now. I tried to port rom and there was Internal Storage error and so I tried to format Internal SD card with Terminal Emulator and reboot. Then my phone can't boot,can't got into recovery mode. I tried to flash JB via Odin and failed with showing "Pit file not found". So I used these Pit files and flashed that only. Now,it is OK. Thanks

So first register at www.sammobile.com, then search SGH-T769 under firmware and download the August 2012 ICS or The Feb 2013 ICS Firmware, wait for the download to finish (took me 30 minutes) then extract which ever firmware zip you downloaded then using Odin click on PDA and select the .md5 file which is located in the extracted ICS Firmware Folder that you've downloaded from sammobile.com
Download the PIT file here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1919228
Click on PIT in Odin and then select the one downloaded from the link above
then make sure re-partition isn't checked and start the flashing process after it is done flashing and reboots you'll have stock ics to root it simply follow the instructions over at the root ics stock thread found here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1919228
This will flash a custom recovery and once the recovery is flashed using Odin reboot into recovery and flash the superuser.zip then you'll have Rooted Stock ICS Firmware
*BOOT LOOP MIGHT OCCUR*
To fix boot looping after flashing stock ICS just boot into stock or custom recovery and wipe data and cache then reboot and you're good to go.

The only thing I will add here is that you don't need the .pit file (it also eliminates the chance of accidental re-partition). Just use the .tar.md5 file as the pda and flash. Also, there isn't any chance of boot looping when flashing the file from the samfirmware site. First boot will take up to 10 minutes.

The PIT I wasn't sure if it was needed or not so I always used it just in case and actually I waited patiently and my phone did bootloop.

Not for ICS you don't. In fact, you only need the .pit for flashing CWM.
For rooting GB 2.3.x then you need the pit.
