Hi
Where is Sboot.bin partition located in T800? I want to dump it.
Thanks
Just pull it from a stock Rom.

Yes, i know, thanks. I have pulled a stock copy already. I wonder if it's possible to dump a copy from my tab and compare with stock (for research). I could not locate it in: /dev/block/platform/dw_mmc.0/by-name. Is there a copy in T800?
Thanks
Sorted. Pit file dumped with PIT Magic, and analysed with Jenkins online Pit anaysis tool.

I'm trying to learn how to make my own ROM from stock. So far I learned how to use dsixda kitchen and adb. I'm stuck on how to convert stock.tar.md5 to cwm flash able . when I extracted the stock file it has 2 files ss_DL.DLL and the t999uvldja_t999MBDLJA_HOME.tar.md5. I decompressed the t999uvldja_t999MBDLJA_HOME.tar.md5. and there are several files in there but I don't see modem.bin cache.rfs factoryfs.rfs that i need to open with magiciso but I see other files like boot.img system.img.ext4 sbl2.mbn and such. This is where I'm stuck. Any developers out there that can help me? Thanks
I need the PIT file from a GT-N5110 PLEASE!! My partitions are messed up , did a little to much of flashing and testing.
Edit: solved
Solved , ha I saved my tablet the second time from a near hardbrick.
I need to stop my flash addiction . But it is so thrilling, Oh the tablet is dead :crying: , Ah it is back a live .....
More info , I tought I messed up partition as I got stuck in bootloop (again) and restoring EFS didn't solve the problem.
I noticed I marked "NAND erase all" in odin by accident and that was the reason why I got myself in this mess.
So never use that thing in Odin.
How I figured out what was wrong , well that was easy , I had stock recovery on my tablet as I installed a official samsung firmware.
So I started up recovery (stock) and it gave me some info , data partition could not be mounted.
I used the stock recovery to do a data/factory reset and it solved the problem.
Next thing I will do is get my PIT file , you need to do that from within linux but that is no problem got both running on my system. Just need to find out on how to extract it, google will help me...
I want to know everything about this tablet , and make sure it is unbrickable if you just got the right files.
So the PIT file is the next I want , that is what you need when you mess up partitions.

Hi civato, you can extract the pit using heimdall on windows as well.
On my device this corresponded exactly to the file I get directly from the device as root with
Code:
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0 of=n5110.pit bs=1 skip=17408 count=8192
I have never used the pit, the emergency has not happened yet for me, so I can't.recommend anyone to use this, but someone could compare to verify theirs is the same. Attaching the pit and text description of pit for n5110 ONLY obtained from heimdall:

Oh thanks , will give it a try , best that we start collecting these files as I see a lot of users of samsung devices at one point need it.
I had some strange stuff going one but was able to save the device every time.
This is my PIT file of my GT-N5110 , it is the same as yours but I took it with the latest Heimdall so I think that is why some names are different in the print out text.
If you look at the block sizes you see they are the exact same size as yours. So I'm guessing this is a good backup for the GT-N5110 16GB , now it is up to other users with other devices to do the same.
Had the same problem and followed your instructions, thanks man now my note is back to live. And running your rom and kernel.

I have a 5100 and is also soft briked
Hi,
I have almost the same problem. i don't have the pit file, but I have a N5100 (the 3G model). My problem is that I can't get into reocvery either. I can get into download mode though. Do you think I can use this pit file on my N5100?
I need pit file for n5120 please where I can download it

I use Odin 3.07... you have to unzip the pit file, and select PIT file and open your pit file you unzipped. Tick the repartition box and start the upload.

Hi, using heimdall with Arch-Linux.
Problem: PIT can't flash on GT-N5100.
Question:
Does it right, that the right using of dd is in this case:
Code:
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0 of=[B]NAME_OF_THE_PIT[/B].pit bs=1 skip=17408 count=8192
A few years ago i'd crashed a hard disk and with the help of robi (Linux-Club.de) i fixed it. (Look here: linux-club.de/forum/viewtopic.php?f=90&t=118487
So i know, prinzipally i can get an image from the Tablet with dd.
But I'm not a freak.
And I think, maybe it's better to safe the image first, bevore repairing.
That was the way with the harddisk, so no dates has been lost.
I think, the synthax to get an image from the Tablet is like this:
Code:
dd if=dev/sdx of=/mnt/sdx/sicherung/image_Tablet.img
Right?
Here are the tools needed for file extraction of system.img and
TAR MD5 packing for ODIN flash, it means you could do your package with only the files to want to flash in ODIN, for me this tools are very useful.
ALL IS WORKING FLAWLESS WITH LOLLIPOP
http://www23.zippyshare.com/v/4v1wFBtL/file.html
Explanation:
------
For unpacking the system.img
NEWIMG2EXT2 system.img systemext2.img <- It converts ODIN images to EXT2 filesystem
Read the file systemext2.img with ext2explore and extract any file you want
NOTE: newimg2ext2 is renamed from the original file name SVAImgUnpack, credits to @svadev
-------
For packing files for ODIN, I made an example file that is named modem2tarmd5.bat, this pack modem.bin into modem.tar.md5 ready to be flashed with ODIN,
edit the .bat and use with the files you like.
Yes!! I have asked countless people and put a thread up but nobody answered. Thank you very much for this tool! I used to use EXT2EXPLORE on KitKat with my S4 Mini, now I can use it on my S6. Thank you!!

I'm FRP boot loop locked on my G928W8 and I can't fix it because stock firmware isn't available on sammobile yet. Can this tool be used by someone with the stock firmware to pull it off and fix my problem? Does it require root to make the image?
I need a stock firmware image before the battery runs down even while off. So if someone can extract their stock firmware then it could really save my phone. Is this something the tool could be used for, or would the md5 not be the same as the actual stock firmware so the FRP lock would stay?

You need someone that can dump the partitions of their phone and flash that partitions to your phone, you need to understand a bit the procedure before flashing with ODIN

Works fine ! I tried a lot of methods to do the same thing, of firmware Lollipop Samsung Galaxy S6 and S5 neo. This method is the only one which works. Thanks !
Very good love it, works even on Nougat (S7).
I know this is a very stupid question.
Last time I installed a custom rom through Odin.
I also played with the setting and i did a re-partition <-- I know, shoot me if you can
Now i need a PIT file for my MT-T900
Everytime i install the original rom it fails.
Who has the PIT file for me from the SM-T900 ?????
I have totally no experience in pit file restoration because i never was clever enough to do what u did.
Maybe you have something with this files . I looks like one of it is an pit file:
asanfile.com/file?path=samsung%2Fflash%20file%2Fsm%20series%2Fsm-t900%2F
On website:
asanfile.com/file
Choose samsung -----> flash file -------> sm series -----> SM-T900
I give no garantee this is the correct one.

Thanks for the replay and te link.
It has partly worked. I was able to install the original rom but still got the fail error.
It was clearly not the correct pit file.
My device worked but i wa snot happy.
Afther this i was looking futher in to the problem and found a new program that samsung is using for it's devices.
It's called Smart Switch. I used this program to do a emergency recovery of my device and it worked. The program did a new re-partition of my device.
Many thanks.

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".
