Been doing a bit of reading on here and some people seem to need a pit file when flashing stock ROM with odin as they get the message "no pit file" how do they end up with a missing pit file?
I believe pit files tells Odin how to divide the partitions for formatting and where certain components go when flashing them individually. I'll assume the reason people get the no pit file error is because Odin doesn't detect the pit file and isn't sure how to correctly flash the ROM. I could be completely wrong, but I thinks that's the general idea behind them. Some ROM's come with the pit file integrated I think, and some come separately.

Are they doing something which makes odin not detect this pit file such as custom recoveries etc

I'm not sure mate honestly. I know the basics of a pit file and that's it. I've never used one and don't plan to.

No worries thanks for input though I need to flash stock MDM through odin again done it once just makes me nervous though haha so hoping I won't need to do pit or will crap myself

Where did you get the file from? Is it a tar file or an tar.md5 file? Also, why do you have to flash it again?

I used djembey root method a while ago but this uses a old unlocked kernel. Need the new kernel on MDM as it gets rid of red tint going to use chainfires auto root on it hopefully
Sent from my GT-I9505 using xda app-developers app
Yeah you can root MDM no bother now with the updated CF-Auto-Root which is what I'm on. I'll have to root the device soon, get a custom recovery and backup the device along with the EFS folder.

no answer ?
Hi, I have my S4 which I love. I'm flashing it pretty regularly with new roms, kernels. It's of course rooted, and in a knox-fail state, but works great for me.
The i9505 uses the same tools as the old note 10.1 (albeit that being exynos, like the i9500). For those experienced in odin, and recovering froma bad flash I don't suppose any of you would be so kind as to check out my thread over on those forums - I have a brick I'm struggling to recover (emergency download mode, all odin flashes fail) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=53170432. I suspect the same principles apply
Much obliged.
Have you tried flashing official firmware for 8010 in Odin whilst using the 8010 PIT file to repartition back to 8010 partition table?
Sent from my GT-I9505 using XDA Premium HD app
Yes though I only had an old pit file and the later firmwares. Finding a known good combination of pit (elusive) and formats would be useful. Any suggestions?

Check that fail happens only with PIT or with only ROM flashing (without PIT) too.
If that fail in both case then follow what rushi said above. If fails with PIT only then better contact service center as something messed up in partition.

When I'm install only PIT without ROM instead not successful
When I'm install only the ROM installation is successfully
After I'm open a mobile working fine
But When you leave the phone for two minutes or more
The screen does not respond even reboot the phone.
Special Thanks to you and all the attention.
