Help w/softbricked Samsung - General Questions and Answers

I have a SM-G530T. What I need is the PIT file for this model of Galaxy Grand Prime.
Its in a bootloop at the logo screen. When trying to fix in odin using the stock rom 5.1.1
I get the error message "Fail" in Odin at the system.img.ext4 stage.
Ive been looking for days for the download file. Google lists sites that have it but cant find it on their sites.
Could someone help or maybe suggest another way to fix my phone.
I truly appreciate your time.

although this is not your model, these guys seem helpful in finding some pits.
also, this guy seems to know how to pull it. if you could find someone currently posting with your model, maybe you could sweet talk them into pulling it for you

thank you

I don't have a gTab, but if it's like other Sammy devices and you can get to download mode...you should be golden. You should be able to flash via Odin, if I'm correct. Just read more about how exactly to do it, and don't eff it up!
But seriously, if you can get to DL mode...and if it's like Sammy's phones, you're still good.
EDIT: You're in luck. It is quite like Sammy phones. Sounds like a 'soft-brick'. Read here. There's also a video-tut on how to repair it.
Check out sammobile. They'll have much useful information there, for you.
And lastly, you'll probably have better luck in the future posting this in the gTab forum. Good luck!

Need more info, exact model number firmware you were on, firmware file you were tryimg to flash, did you check, or uncheck anything in Odin? Download mode is good, you should be OK.
How do you know its softbrick? Bootloop, hang at logo? Which one?, as much data as possible will get you fixed faster.
I had same problem. You need a PIT file for p6200 and use it in odin together with the newest firmware from sammobile.com.
It works for me.

I have limited knowledge on flashing, but as far as I know, If u r using a 'PIT' file, be sure to check on 'Repartition' Option in Odin (while flashing). If u Flash wid ONLY a md5 file, ensure that 'Re Partition' box is unchecked while flashing. May be u kept Repartition checked while you were not using a PIT file or vice versa.
If that is d case, try flashing again by following a correct process.

Samsung Galaxy S3 - GT19300 - HELP

Hey guys wassup! I'm new to this forum so sorry if i posted this in the wrong category but here goes.... Basically my wife has a samsung s3 gt-19300 and all of a sudden the phone wasn't turning on, when she attached the charger it just showed the battery sign but did nothing. took it to a few local phone repair shops they told us software or hardware issue and they cant fix it. The more i read online i started seeing how common it is and that people found a fix. I downloaded odin 3.07 and a few pda files and pit files but have no idea what im doing. all i get when i tried following instructions was there is no pit partition and once i got the pit file it said get pit partition. can some one please help me with a step by step guide and maybe even a download link to the right files for this phone. i have no idea about this stuff and would appreciate it. Also please dont send me a link to another thread coz its confusing as it is. hopefully some one will be able to help and i will keep this thread updated. thanks in advance and i look forward to the replies.

Has anyone successfully downgraded Verizon Note Edge to KitKat 4.4.4?

If so, would you mind sharing the procedure? I've tried flashing the 4.4.4 firmware in 3 different computers, with Odin 3.4, 3.7 and 3.9, using several cables and several USB ports, but it always results in a <ID:0/003> FAIL! (Auth) or stuck on aboot. I've done factory reset, wiped cache, turned on debugging. Lollipop sucks the battery harder than a truck stop hooker, and would love to go back to KitKat. Thanks for any help thrown my way.
Not everybody at once, people! That's what I get for buying a phone only 3 other people own. It's OK, I still love you, Edge.
I was able to downgrade as were a few others with Edges. A little searching and you'll find all the answers you're looking for.

Is your Edge from Verizon? I found information for other carriers (which I assumed would be the same procedure, obviously with the right firmware), but since my downgrade failed miserably, I want to know if anyone else with a Verizon Note Edge has been able to downgrade.

Check your PM's
Please share this info
Please share on how to roll back to kit kat on the Verizon note edge. I upgraded to lollypop and do not like the battery life and a few other things that have come about because of this upgrade. I have tried using Odin to revert back to 4.4.4 but keep getting a failed message. I would be forever great full if you could please send me or post this information.
Thanks in advance for the help!
If I am ever able, I will. Still stuck with 5.0.1.
Hi gang. FYI... In trying to help MEXICO downgrade his Edge, I sent him a PM with information I thought could be useful for downgrading his Verizon version. Apparently this was something he had already seen and was of no help to him. I have been searching for the tar files for Verizon edge kitkat to no avail. I will continue to research, but at this point I cannot offer any help as I am on AT&T. If I come across something that may be useful, I'll let you know. I encourage you all to also keep searching and share any information you might find. I'm sorry that I'm pretty much useless at this point.
Bootloader TAR File
I have managed to find a sample of the TAR file for the 915F version of the Galaxy Note Edge. I have also been able to find this thread that details what info needs to be made into the TAR file from the downloaded 4.4.4 Verizon Firmware file but I have been unable to create the TAR bootloader file correctly. I keep getting individual files in a TAR and not an MD5 in a TAR. It is a start and hopefully someone with greater knowledge of creating said TAR file can take this info and run with it.
Sample TAR file Thread:

What needs to be in the TAR file:

Here is the place to download the stock firmware:

Hope this is the beginning of something that can work. Please let me know if I can be of further help.
