I believe he's looking for the PIT file to flash via ODIN... Very dangerous stuff.. hope he knows what hes doing.
However id like this file as well, as from my research, this file is what controls the partitions, and id like to remove 300MB from my system partition. But in my post about repartioning, i heard it was very risky.

Badly needed .pit partition file for SGH-T989 (T-mobile samsung SII)......
the only reason to use it is if you repartitioned on accident, odin uses the .pit stored in the phone for mapping , this website claims to have the right one but it must be flashed with ics firmware , http://forum.gsmhosting.com/vbb/f777/samsung-t989-pit-file-badly-needed-1526176/
i have not tested this file- so flash at your own risk
Hey guys I followed the tutorial to flash my phone back to stock using Odin and I accidentally flashed the pit file along with the PDA file is there anything I can do about this or do I need to send it out for jag recovery? (I ordered a jig today to try that when it arrives) the phone doesn't boot at all nothi on the screen but it shows up on the computer as qd something I think it said NAND rw corrupt before it turned off when flashing
If you can get your phone into download mode by pressing the volume rockers and power button while plugging your USB into the computer, I would suggest trying to Odin flash it again. If not then maybe you do need the jtag repair

You my friend are officially hard bricked. Pit files have a very very very specific use, and flashing the wrong file in the pit sedition of odin is almost a guarantee brick. You can try to see if download mode still exists, but if not you send it oiff. I've heard before that a jig worked, buuuttt that was only once.
Good luck

Hey Guys,
Phone was running on stock firmware. Not rooted. No custom recovery..
One day phone crashes, and fails to boot...when I click power button, it just shows me a grey static screen
Check video: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/7380407/Note2_SWIssue.mp4
I then tried putting a custom recovery, and a stock kernel, etc,etc, But it seems my PIT partition decided to evaporate from my phone automatically.
So, what do you guys suggest? Should I try stock firmware with a pit partition file (with Re-partition checked in ODIN)??
Check ODIN screenshot in attachment.
p.S - My stock recovery is dead too. Trying to get to recovory shows the same grey static screen.
Please HELP!

try flashing this pit file http://d-h.st/Dlv using odin and then flash the firmware of your choice and see if it gives the same prob or solves.
Hello, my note II died one night. Either displays battery icon when charging or stuck on samsung logo. I can get in to odin recovery but cannot get in to bootloader mode. Device is not rooted and I did not turn on usb debugging mode earlier on. And now is the question. What do I do to recover pictures from it?. Is it possible at all?

Do you have a custom recovery? If so: make a data backup.
Otherwise: try rooting and recovering using download mode. (If it still works)
There are many tutorials on rooting (with download mode).
Question: How long is it stuck on the samsung logo? Do you have a bootloop? You are not rooted, but are you on a custom rom?

And with odin mode you mean download mode? If so: Flash SU via odin, flash recovery, make a backup, flash a ROM. Most data will be in the backup, If you flash the ROM without wiping you still have all of your pictures and stuff.
Edit: I see you did not turn on USB debugging, however, as far as my knowledge goes, this is your only solution...
There is a way to push it to your device though (ADB), but I think it doesn't work without USB debugging...

Try to reflash stock rom using Odin. Flashing stock roms probaly keeps ur apps and data safe.. Unless you to a factory reset.. U can flash stock rom without triggering USB debugging

finally I got PIT file for note II, cwm6 with root and stock ROM but...
odin3 stays forever on: get PIT for mapping.....
tried just PIT but same effect. Without PIT file it says: no PIT partition, flashing failed.
toolkit does not talk to the device as waiting for USB debugging mode on the device. even if I choose download via odin still the same.
Any ideas?

thanks, but kies says: no response from the device
Is it possible that even if I can put device in the DL mode nothing can be done?
I tried kies on different PC. PC can see only USB camera and USB composite device and Kies stays forever on: connecting to device.
I tried my second device and kies recognized it straight away. Anyone have any ideas what is going on with my note II?
As I mentioned before I can put it into DL mode but it looks like its frozen just after doing that.
Any help will be appraciated.
I took note II from friend of mine to compare DL mode and I found something strange
His screen says:
ODIN MODE
Product NAME: GT-N7100
Custom binary download: NO
Current Binary: Samsung Official
System Status: Official
Knox warranty void: 0
AP SWAEV: A2
When mine says:
ODIN MODE
Product NAME:
Custom binary download: NO
Current Binary: Samsung Official
System Status: Custom
I have NOT changed ROM on my device and I had it boxed
Any ideas?
still trying different things as no replies on my post.
when I leave my device connected to PC (switched on as normal but showing only samsung logo) after 5 mins PC says found USB device, device not recognized. then after 5 seconds it disconnects. and it goes in circles. same if I try in bootloader mode, but it stays on samsung logo as well. In DL mode, PC recognizes only composite device and modem.... Any ideas please? I dont want recover data anymore as I think its lost but I would like to unbrick my note2
Did you flash pit file? If not, download it from here http://d-h.st/Dlv
Using ODIN, select the PIT file, and make sure to TICK the Re-partition option.
I hope you already have a stock ROM downloaded. In the PDA tab of ODIN,select that rom and then press start. Wait and pray.

Are you sure the repartiton option was ticked? I seem to have forgotten whether it should be ticked or not.
Do one thing. After loading the necessary files, tick re partition.
if it fails,
Load all the necessary files and make sure repartition is NOT tickd.Report back.

If I choose PIT file, re-partition box is ticked automaticaly. W/o re-partition box ticked, I have message: no binary file selected.
As I mensioned before, In DL mode, my device is not showing model number. Does it matter?
Before I tried all possibilities and suggestions on Win 8 PC, now trying on win 7 and I have more promising results, however I will try on newly installed system just to be sure that drivers and other stuff are ok. I tried different USB cables and different batteries. Still nothing, so hoping new system will help. except, anyone has different idea?
Ok, so I have done some research and even if I can put n7100 into DL mode but there is no product name displayed, device needs either new EMMC, or new PCB or JTAG. I will go with JTAG as my first option and will report as it might be usefull for someone in the future
Hi there. A friend of mine gave me a bricked L900 stuck in the black "Galaxy Note II" screen. The first thing I did was to enter stock recovery, but a bunch of red error messages appeared (as pictured). Wiping data/factory reset didn't do anything. Entered Download mode without a problem and then tried to flash every single Odin firmware for the L900 found on the whole internet, but no matter what I flash, Odin ALWAYS fails. Also noticed that after an unsuccessful flash, still in download mode you can read in red: "sw rev check fail device 3 binary 2". Also, it is not recognized by Kies.
The previous owner said the phone bricked while receiving an OTA update. I have spent a whole week trying to fix this thing! I decided to ask for some help here before smashing it with a hammer.
Any help is much appreciated!

Trying now. I have downloaded Heimdall Suite 1.4. After installing the included drivers and opening the program, I'm not sure what to do.

Heimdall is new territory for me! Any suggestion?

You will need to extract the files and use the flash tab. Don't remember if a pit files is included in the tar.md5 package (fyi you might have to remove the .md5 to extract the files) bit if you need one let me know.
On the flash tab select your pit file then add a partition, then select the corresponding file. You will need to do this for every partition you want to flash. Once setup click on the start button.

Thank you. I have extracted the files but Heimdall doesn't recognize them. It doesn't recognize any .tar or .md5 file. I am very familiar with file extensions, extracting, flashing software, etc... but this is the first time using Heimdall and I am very frustrated because I can't make it work. Any suggestion? Thanks again.
You give up on this yet domenicostorino? Looks like according to your images, you just need to odin with an included pit file. Lemme know, I have a pit that works for this device, had to fix one last week. Your images are showing no such directory, so that should fix you.
Edit: Grab the pit from here Use it with stock tar and flash via odin. That is the one I grabbed.
Hey! My Note has been collecting dust on the corner of my desk but I haven't given up on it yet! I would really apprecite if you can share that pit file and some steps. So far, EVERYTHING I've flashed with Odin just fails. Maybe that pit file is all I'm missing! Please help me bring that phone back to life!!

Just grab that pit file I edited with, select it in the pit section of odin, it should check mark the repartion as well. At the same time grab the stock firmware tar. You are going to be doing everything just like you have been, just using a pit file and repartitioning at the same time. Good luck, just holler, I will be around most of today. I used this firmware with that pit. Firmware
If it doesn't boot, don't worry, enter recovery and see if it fixed the can not mount, I don't know which baseband you currenlty have, so that could keep it from booting. If that happens and mounts are fixed, then just grab the last firmware and flash it without the pit file. Here is the latest FIRMWARE.
Remember you flashing tar files, all three of them need to be extracted.
Thank you. I did everything exactly as you said but the pit file didn't do the trick. It failed right away again. Of couse when I enter recovery the same can't mount messages in red appear again.

Assuming you extracted the t0lte.zip to read t0lte.pit and placed in pit section of Odin with repartition checked, and extracted the rom to a .tar and place in the AP section then hit start. Should have worked or did for me anyway. Have you tried different usb cable as well as a different port on pc? <that can cause odin to fail. Also which Odin version are you using? I use 3.09 Odin. Wife's phone went on the blink last week because of a battery failure, nothing would mount after replacing battery. What I described is all I did, she is back up and running with latest stock and rooted now.
After looking at this again, according to the images on first post, you have the latest stock build NE2. I extracted the pit file from the wife's phone and compared to the other. They are the same. At this point I would just try one more time with the pit and the latest stock firmware. If that doesn't work then maybe it is just a bad eMMC.
Here is the extracted pit from wife's phone if you want to try it. View attachment L900_NE2.7z
I did try again many times using the pit file and latest NE2 firmware. I guess the eMMC is faulty. Thanks for your help anyway!

I'm having a similar issue. Phone was charging in the truck, came out to the Galaxy Note 2 boot screen with the green light on, once I unplugged it though, it just died, Any attempts after that and the screen goes fuzzy on me. I can only boot into downloader mode, but everything I've tried to flash via two different ODIN's so far fails almost immediately. http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-2-sprint/help/odd-semi-brick-t3082102 I'd really love some help sorting this out.
