N9005 PIT File - How to save your PIT file - Galaxy Note 3 Android Development

As i have made for n8000 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=41158546#post41158546
Here you can find My PIT file (N9005 - root de la vega - firmware XXUBMJ1- so not bootloader blocked) View attachment My-N9005.zip
for repair bricked phone
Pit file with blocked bootloader are different? this is a question...
You can save your pit file by yourself with this batch View attachment N9005_SaveMyPitFile.zip
But work only if your phone is rooted and with the option USB Development active in your N9005
The start address of block mmclbk0 is the same of N8000 but the pit file is more big
This is the command in adb dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0 of=/sdcard/My-N9005.pit bs=1 skip=17408 count=4244
You can post your PIT file here if are different with the version of your firmware
For different model of Note 3 you can save your pit file and post here or send me to test if is completed and ok
I hope this will be usefull
Regards!

At first look in 3 pit files there are differences only about two fields: hidden.img.ext4 and userdata.img.ext4; in these 2 field differences also about a value that is not explained in Pit Magic (real address memory of phone?)
But more evident is the last block of 64 bytes of the pit file that is always different

THIS first Leaked Rom MH1 had also a Pit File. Attached, may be You want to compare.
Like we read HERE, the last block bytes must be always different, I quote:
My theory is the signature is to verify the pit file is a genuine samsung pit file so the worst that could happen is odin or the device will reject the pit file if it isnt signed.

Hi @ghibli3, you give me more instructions on how to use the zip? please
I do not understand if I have to unzip in c: \ android c: \ or anywhere else.
this requires having the phone with root?

Really apologize bro... I could not help you further by providing my tab p6800 32gb PIT file. It seems there is compatibility issue with Heimdall in windows 7. My pc has already been dual boot window 7 and windows 8. I hope you could get help from other member soon or you could use pit file from the link I gave to you.
I edit my 16G PIT to 32GPIT for you. I don't know the real size of 32G so I just double the data partition to 28G+. you may lost a few hundred M.

Can You make 64gb PIT for subj?

[SOLVED] [Q] 32GB PIT for GT-P5100?

Hi All
I have searched and searched but can not find a 32GB PIT file for my GT-P5100 (obviously 32GB version).
I need this since I was stupid enough to use a 16GB version while flashing (I know, was pretty stupid hey?)
The tab works 100% with 4.1 JB, just minus 16GB worth of storage!
Can ANYONE please let me know where to find a 32GB version partition file? (the Sammobile site only has 8GB and 16GB)
- OR can I use another type Samsung Tab PIT file?
Thanks for ANY help...
EDIT: This is solved, read on to see some epic assistance!

			
				
Hi. Did you use a PIT file when you flashed the ROM? If not, then I think you don't need one to put back your original partitioning neither - just try to flash back the original ROM (if you made a backup), or a ROM from the Development section which is exactly for the P5100 32GB. At least that's what I would try, as using PIT file is very risky, especially from a different device model.
What ROM did you flash btw? If it's a custom ROM, you could also ask the developper for a solution.
UNless you actually flashed a PIT file or checked off the repartition flag in oDIN then nothing should have affected your storage layout.

Thanks for the help, I however did use the PIT file (still not sure why I did!) I also went back to the original ROM to see if somehow this would help. The Tab works without any issues, just partitioned to 16GB
I flashed with official rom, XXCLI5
oh, then I think you're right, using the original PIT file would be the best option... (unless there are system commands that allow repartitioning, but I couldn't find anything).
here you find some explanations about the PIT files:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=999097
then you might want to check this post, it gives a lead for a solution (even two - someone with unmodified partitions extracts for you the original pit file of the tablet, OR use this PIT file editor ):

Hi
I have a pit file for you because I have the same problem. To make a long story short I retrieved it from a working 32GB p5100. I varified the PIT file by using PIT Magic to compare it to the 16GB version. Unfortunately for some reason I cannot get odin to partition my P5100 with this PIT file. I assure you it is the correct file. See if you can use ODIN to install this file. If you are unsure if it is the correct file download pit magic PIT_Magic_v1.3.10_Release to varify.
Pit file attached !!!!!! Used txt to upload. rename type to pit
See if you have any luck repartitioning your internal SD. I think that if we can find the correct stock rom the re-partitioning will be possible.
If you can get this pit file to do what it is supposed to let me know. In the meantime at least we have the correct PIT file.
Regards
John S A

For interest, what Odin version are you using? I tried with 1.87

This PIT file really works!!! A great thanks to author. But, for it became work you need modify it. First, you need to change file ext from .txt to .pit. Next, open this file by any hex-editor (i used HxD editor for this purposes) and remove all zeros in the end of file (C6 D6 48 F6 must be last bytes in the file). Save file and answer YES in change file size dialog. Now size of file should be 2132 bytes. Now You can use this file by ODIN with repartition option checked. After programming You must to boot into recovery mode (power on with volume down buttons) made swipe\factory and swipe\cache. Now space goes back.
I tested this half our ago on my P5100 which I was programmed with 16GB pit.

Here is the working pit file zipped after the input from the "RUSSIAN WIZZARD"
USE ODIN 3V1.7
STEPS
UNZIP ATTACHED ZIP P5100_32GB modded.zip
LAUNCH ODIN
SELECT PIT, SELECT REPARTITION, SELECT ROM OF YOUR CHOICE.
DESELECT REBOOT
UNPLUG AND REBOOT MANUALLY AFTER ROM COMPLETION BY HOLDING IN POWER AND VOLUME DOWN INTO RECOVERY MODE
DO FACTORY RESET
YOUR P5100 SHOULD NOW BE A 32GB TAB AGAIN.
ALL THE BEST

Basically, I'd only ever use a PIT file if Odin threw up an error relating to it, 99% of the time these are not needed when using Odin unless you've screwed up your devices partitions.
It's handy to have this file saved as a backup though just in case that ever happened

How, a little more information would be nice?
What model did you use it on; T310, T311 or T315?
What options did you tick in ODIN?
I compared the same PIT file to one extracted with heimdall on my T310, all entries/contents were the same, it came from a T311 firmware package but T310 firmware packages also have the same file. T315 uses a different named PIT file hence why I was uncertain.
Just now I've even compared it to another PIT file off the SamMobile forums that a Moderator posted for the T310, everything is the same, ODIN will reject it if it isn't signed as well.
https://www.diffchecker.com/cta675hS
I didn't force you to use the file, nor was this a guide in anyway, your device must have been in a bad way for you to consider using it.
In any case I've now removed the file.

Did that app provide you with the pit file or did it extract it from your device for you? Something seems to be not right about my device since I am unable to flash the XAR firmware but am able to flash others. So someone suggested that the partitioning might be off. To do that I need to find someone with a working pit file.

Hi
Can somebody help me? I need the pit file for my SM-P905M.
I updated its firmware to lollipop and I've been presenting several issues with it (have tested lot of variants) but now the problem is the internal memory. The internal memory works as expected initially but some days later (after wiping and flashing) locks as read only and the only working solution is wipe and install all over again. I've been reading about the problem and seems like the partition table is corrupted, so I hope any of you can help me with the PIT file to wipe and flash once again my tablet and make it work properly.
Thanks in advance... and sorry for the sloppy english (non-native).

Full firmware with pit file

Hi
My device came with ILO product code.
I played with few (official) firmwares and after initializing my device using smart switch, I can no longer return to my original firmware. It's turns out that the initialization through smart switch used a pit file with very little place for "hidden.img"
Every firmware with above average hidden partition fail with odin.
Where can I get pit file for my location or even better - full firmware with pit included?
Thanks in advance

it contains pit with 100MB for hidden.img
I downloaded but haven't flashed yet,
too many flashed in the last couple of days.
edit:
just compared the 100mb pit with the one currently on my phone using this tool

That kinda make sense to me.cause before i flash a european rom with pit file i had less user data i don't remember exactly but it was like 200mb less.
Would u share that new pit with larger hidden.img?i mean just the pit.i will test that and share the resault here
I can still flash one or two more roms.
Have fun

How do you do that?
If you're on windows - download 7zip and make a new tar with all the files from original firmware+the pit file
ok,just double checking to make sure i do not make any more mistakes.i should put the pit file here right?
Yes
------------------------------
when you choose to add files to archive
just select in archive format - tar
