Here is the situation. I was on cm10 for a long time and decided to odin back to stock. When I did this, my 16gb tab became a 4.59gb tablet. I have been searching the web for days for a solution to this problem. The only thing I could come up with was that I needed to flash a .pit file in odin. Unfortunately for me, when googling for pit files and flashing instructions, the info was sparse. I had some help with pulling the pit file with heimdall-frontend, but since my tab is at 4.59 gb of internal memory I'm not sure if it is going to be much help.
My situation:
I flashed the pit file I pulled from my (now) 4 gb tab in combination with this file (HOME_P3113UEBLH2_999349_REV04_user_low_ship.tar.md5) in PDA. Tablet rebooted fine but still only had 4.59 gb internal storage. Now comes my boneheaded mistake. I now flash the 16 gb wifi only p3110 pit with the above tarball. Tablet reboots to a screen that reads:
Encryption failed
Unable to complete encryption due to interruption.
Perform factory data reset before use. After resetting, try
encrypting device again.
With a touch screen option to "reset device". When I touch that it boots to stock recovery to reset but I get this error:
wiping data...
formatting /data...
E:format_volume: make_extf4fs failed on /dev/block/mmcblk0p10
Formatting /cache...
Data wipe failed.
-- Appling Multi-CSC...
Applied the CSC-code : XAR
Successfully applied multi-CSC.
-- Updating application...
E:failed to mount '/preload'(No such file or directory)
I have also tried flashing both 4.0.3 and 4.0.4 firmware and still get the above encryption error.
I am confident that I can recover this tab with the proper guidance, but I have no clue where/what to do from here. I can get into download mode, and I can boot the tab and get through the splash screen and boot animation (which then gets to the first error from above), and as long as I have the tablet plugged into a power source (turned on) and hold power + volume down, the tab turns off and will still charge. So I am not panicking, but I really do need some guidance please.
Thanks in advance.

I flashed the stock firmware in odin without the pit file, yes. Still get the same error messages.

Ok, I have a tone of silly questions, so just bear with me here...
Next question, can you boot the device normally...?, and use normally...???

No problem. Your the only one on 4 forums that is offering any help, so ask away.
I can boot all the way up/get past the boot screen. However, instead of the lock screen, I get a white screen with this error:
Encryption failed
Unable to complete encryption due to interruption.
Perform factory data reset before use. After resetting, try
encrypting device again.
In the bottom right it says "reset device "
When I do that, I get the second error from above in stock recovery.

skennelly,
Have you tried Kies, although this appears to be an Firmware emergency recovery, for a phone. Can you give this a go...?, it is a Sammobile PDF. Here is the link...
---------- Post added at 04:32 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:27 PM ----------
Also, I have tried these places to try and get a proper .pit file, but after registering with them I still to this day can not gain access...???
But maybe you will have better luck...???

I am trying to imagine what this is...???
Another question, do you have a recovery (by pressing the Volume Up + Power button(s), and if so...?, Is it Stock or Custom...? If any of the two are in place, can you perform a Factory Reset Wipe...???
I will try the kies method that you have posted.
Also, I have tried droidevelopers.com and found a thread with a ton of pit files. However, they did not have one for the p3113 and no one has responded to my post, and I also sent a pm to the op of that thread and have not received a response. All of this occurred over a week ago.
And yes, I do have a stock recovery. I can get into recovery, download mode, and power down (and I can charge my tab when powered down).
I can even install a custom recovery, which I did. However, the custom recovery will abort the installation when I try to flash the .zip to root the tab and will abort the installation of a back up that I had.

Then I get this after the wipe and reboot.

In this image here, there is a "wipe data/factory reset" have you tried that selection, then rebooted...?
And also, it appears to be failing due to a ext4 partition format, not ext4 file format (this maybe confusing, so for now just ignore)...? But the question I am getting at is; do you have a external SdCard in place, if so can you remove it then attempt to restart or reboot the device...???
If that fails just after a reboot then preform the "wipe data/factory reset" then reboot again...!!!
I want to see what happens, so post the response.
But follow these steps;
Remove the Sdcard, the reboot...
If it fails, return back to Recovery
Preform "wipe data/factory reset, reboot...
I have performed a factory reset several times. Taking out the sd card and booting gave me the same encryption failed error.
Performing a factory reset without the sd card in gave me this error:

What do you mean by "super wipe"?
I just tried to install a rom. everything looked like it was going well, but then I got the same encryption error. Tried to format data in cwm and received another. Still can't boot to anything other that "encryption failed".
Also, on the Encryption page, I get a toast notication that "device is full, delete user data".

He is on CMW 6.0.1.0 I does not come with "superwipe"..., CWM 6.0.1.1, and the latest version TWRP, is not equipped with this either. I found it on a CWM Recovery designed for my HTC Evo 4g though.

So the phone doesn't come on at all? What happens when you try to open boot loader.

when i try to go to bootloader by pressing down and start key, it takes me to menu where i can see start, recovery and bootloadrer option, if i go to recovery, it will lead me to twrp , but if i select bootloader it will just do nothing
Don't freak out. Everything will be OK. Just follow this guide to flash the stock image and you'll be up and running in minutes.

If you successfully made a backup, go to TWRP -> restore -> choose the file you backed up and flash.
If not, follow El Daddys post.
thank you guy,... i am working on that. will post back soon
thank you so much all of you. you just saved me.. should i select format data option only when flashing a rom or the option which says and which option causes the internal memory to wipe out clean
I usually do factory reset and wipe dalvik/cache a second time to be safe.
Which method did you use to get it running again?

First you have to install custom recovery in your phone. Download it from the above thread and flash it as its said in instructions.
From this custom recovery you can be able to root your phone as well.. Don't panic your phone will be OK and on.
---------- Post added at 11:25 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:23 AM ----------
Its seems your device is secured by Xolo secure software. Its necessary to turn it off during any flashing or wiping.
---------- Post added at 11:43 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:25 AM ----------
If all fails then download stock ROM with its flasher flash it, and then install twrp custom recovery to root and install custom rom to it and beware of use of Xolo secure . but its the final option you have which will surely work.

yes, the phone is secured by xolo secure software before.
I tried to flash the stock rom with qpst 'emmc software download' but it ask for " qhsusb_bulk driver "
Now i successfully install twrp recovery, what shall i do now?
Try to advance wipe from there. First do factory reset then in advance wipe do wipe cache and dalvik cache. It Should work.

I did advance wipe > Dalvik cache , cache , and wipe .
After reboot it comes back to twrp recovery only.

If you got success in wiping the cache then you try now the rooted ROM method install via fastboot again. It will flash the ROM l, go to recovery and wipe chache and restart. This time Xolo secure will not control your wiping... And your phone will be on but be sure first boot takes time .
