How to extract a PIT from a device?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=51219635

Ok i did all of the above i extracted the pit file from a working note 2 but it still fails when i try to flash the stock rom via odin. Now this is what the note 2 board reads on download mode.
Current binary samsung official
System status Custom
Can it be that the system status is custom and the pit im using comes from a stock firmware?
Please help me on this im trying to salvage this board i know it can be fixed.
Do you think i have to maybe flash whatever custom rom that's installed on the bad board to the note 2 thats working?
Please guide me i appreciate all of your help thanks.

what is the error in Odin? place a snapshot.

Hi,
I use a Samsung Galaxy Trend Plus 7580 phone with 4GB of storage. Since any KitKat based ROM has started to crash after one of the latest play services updates, I find Resurrection Remix Marshmallow version, the fastest and stable rom for the phone.
Storage space is an issue.
There is only 1 GB storage left after a few necessary apps are installed, plus a 500mb on system partition.
I see that the system partition is not decreased a single megabyte after the first installation.
Can anybody tell how is the system partition used in general?
I'm trying to figure out if it is a good idea to reduce the size of the system partition like 300 Mbytes and add that space to user partition?

Anyone have pit file for Samsung on7 Goofy?

The firmware u are using is just fine I had used the same and for more then a month and incase if u want a pit file u check my signature the 2 nd link is having a pit file make sure u download for ur i9500 only using other version pit file is dangerous
Flash pit file only along with the firmware u have
U also need to check re partition if ur flashing pit file also
However if u are not using pit file do not check re partition
Double check b4 starting the process to be sure

It should just flash if you have the setup right and the correct firmware.

you need to remove sboot.bin file from your firmware and then flash it through odin. i am sure it works. but for that you need to know a lil about linux, as the process of removing sboot.bin is done on linux os.

cant I flash sboot.bin somehow?
my phone works ok ..but it means I cant flash anything
I saw on the general topic an sboot.bin tar file..what if I flash it?

What version of odin do you use?

What was the error?
till that you can download a whole stock firmware from sammobile for your country or try custom roms, so if your firmware is broken you can reflash it again...
