try to tick re-partition, or use pit512 to flash.
hope you can solve your problem.

Where can i find 512pit fiie??
Can u post a link if possible??
Thanks in advance..

Where do i need to put the .tar i downloaded?I put it in PDA.

pit512 is available @ samfirmware.com.
if it is a single tar file, yes, put it in the pda.

Here's the 512 PIT. Un-rar it before using it with Odin.

Only put it in pda and use 512 ... but out of curiosity , why are you flashing older firmware ? you giving it to the service center or something ? use jm8 / jm9 they work really well ..

Is it a zip (that doesn't have a tar inside) or is it a tar file? Zip will most likely be in CWM, tar is always ODIN.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium

zip. it would even allow me to open it either. gave me a bunch of errors

i just tried to go thru cwm and it aborted installation. the error says its md5 file inside

What does the file structure look like inside of the zip?

i have downloaded 2 different files that are supposedly 2.3.6 and none of them are working. i have a zip version i got from sammobile.com that i think that is password locked but only gives me an error when i try to extract it. i can open it and theres a md5 file in there
the other one is a rar file and i dont know what to do with it.
i have darkside digital warfare rom but i cannot get it to install correctly thru cwm. i gets to darth vader loading screen blue line fills up then flashes samsung and turns off and thats it.
i just want to get back to stock and take the back and start over with a new one

It's a .tar.md5 file extension?

in the type column just says md5. it doesnt say tar anywhere

Yes they are files to use through odin inside a zip file...
And they are password protected ... You must extract the zip first , then use the file in odin ...
usually samfirmware.com, sammobile.com or something like that ...

thanks for your help guys. i will try tomorrow when i get home from work. i have juggernaut running pretty good on it now

sounds like you have an incomplete dl too

where would i put in the password on the sammobile stock rom? i will redownload it to see if changes

The link doesn't work for me, could you reupload it? Also does this contain data about your /data partition? If so this might be specific to your model (16/32/64 GB)

Can you please explain how you got the pit file? from what I understand you cannot simply dump the pit anymore unless I missed something.

requested access to this as well-- can you post somewhere other than Google Drive as people cant get to this file?!

can you please grant my request to download the file? I have a soft bricked phone and I really need the Pit file. thanks so much

According to: http://www.droidviews.com/how-to-extract-pit-file-from-samsung-galaxy-devices/
Requirement: To be able to use any of the methods described below [to extract the PIT file], you must have root privilege on your Galaxy device. Both the methods have been tested on the Samsung Galaxy S5.

This means that, unless someone gets it directly from Samsung somehow (leak, release, or otherwise), you'll need to wait for root on the 5.1.1 stock ROM.
I don't know a whole lot about the PIT file, and why someone would ever need it (apart from screwing around so much that you overwrite your partition information on the device... which would be hard for the average user to accidentally do).
Have you tried Samsung Smart-Switch? I don't know if it's capable, but it might download the PIT info from the internet before restoring stock firmware on a 100% borked device.

Thank you for the reply; by adb I know does not work without root as I looked over those methods. But there is also Heimdall that should be able to extract the pit while in download mode and has the option to save it,but seems not supporting this device. Also odin performs this tasks " Get PIT for mapping.." ,but does it automatically and there is no option to save from a working device with same details to use on other. I need it for a g925t that is stuck on samsung logo after odin restore and showing in download mode SW rev. check fail. device:2 binari 1 , and I think by flashing with a pit might fix it

Let us know if this worked. I need to restore back to 5.0.2 also from 5.1.1. Thanks

will not work to restore to 5.0.2 from what I know and might also damage it,so do not recommend to try that

Afaik you need the multiple! part stock file for this:
The pit file is inside the CSC stock file and can be extracted by ->
delete .md5 from the extension
open the remaing CSC......tar file
copy pit to desktop
When in Odin give it the place where the pit file is and check "repartiton".
