Does there exist a Heimdall Firmware Package for the 9100?
I have the US AT&T phone, but I'd put any language into it at this point.
Hi,
U can use download the roms.
extract the files.
use the latest Heimdall to install the rom.
No need for packages.
Just read the readme doc and guide before using Heimdall.
Also first install the driver for your phone, and extract and download the pit file of your phone.
Then use the pit file to install the files from the rom.
Hope this helps.
Hi, please help! All the firmwares for galaxy s2 I have downloaded don't have a PIT included in the tar. I have downloaded them from this site both from the branded firmwares and the unbranded ones. Where do I get the PIT?
Thanks.

NEVER use a pit file PERIOD
Thanks for your reply. How do I get heimdall to flash without the PIT? Everything I have read says you need to browse for that in order to flash if you don't have a heimdall package.

First question before this post is moved is why do you want to flash via Heimdall .
Why not just flash using ODIN .

In my case: Because it means I have to reboot into windows just for that. Everything else is on Linux.

you can use heimdal to extract the current pit from your phone, save the file on your pc and use it for flashing kernels & stuff.

just tested, it looks fine to me.
i flashed it with odin as pda file, no pit (i previously used 20100512 for XXJPU), no repartition.
what files are included? pda modem and csc?
It's just one .tar package with everything dude, just flash it as pda with odin.

Hello I flashed this file with Odin and it worked but somehow I can't see Market at all. Is there any way I can see Market.
Hello everyone! Im new to android as the galaxy s2 is the first android phone I have.. Since i bought it and my wife saw it, she wanted an android phone also.
We bought her a used galaxy s (gt i9000) and to my knowledge it seems to have a unofficial rom (or something like that..) flashed. It has a program called "superuser" installed and the battery bar has % visible.. And also the lock screen seems to be a default android lock screen.. Anyway to flash an original samsung firmware to it? Ive used odin to flash the newest fw to my sg2 so maybe use that?
Hope you can help..

go to samfirmware.com , select a 2.3.3 or 2.2.1 firmware.
If the package is only a .tar file , use it in PDA and dont select .PIT and untick repartition box.
If the package has three files like PDA, CSC, PHONE, use .512 PIT and tick repartition.
hope this helps. also, there are a bunch of videos on youtube.com on how to flash galaxy I9000
this thread holds all the stock roms with some instructions for installation.
[REF] Stock Firmwares for Samsung Galaxy S I9000 series - Download Only
I would do a complete factory reset by entering these characters into the phone dialler
*2767*3855#
Then I would get a 3 file download of Android 2.2.1 and recommended PIT from Samfirmware and install using Odin and Re-Partition option.
When firmware is installed and phone has booted, do another factory reset.
This way the phone has a new firmware and is completely wiped.
Hello everyone please help me whenever I was trying to flash stock rom for my galaxy y gt s5360
Odin always shown failed message
I did different stock rom to flash use different usb cable, different pc, even different usb port but no success.
The good thing is my phone doesn't got bootloop and it's easily on without any problem

Where are you getting your stock rom files from
if it's from dokys thread you should have 3 files once unzipped
Pda csc & modem
Place Pda in pda
modem in phone
csc in csc
do not tick any boxes like repartition
if you have only 1 file you need to split it for use with odin (see dev section for the tool)

I'm not stating the following in a negative way to contradict what @bbsc provided. This is only another option for obtaining the pit file.
The following link from sammobile has all the pit files for the G900 devices and also reflects a handful of G900I variants too.

Hi,
Are you sure "all the pit files"?
I don't see the one for SM-G900F XEO.
Just kidding, I don't need any

The best way is to download service firmware and extract the pit-file.

Do you know where to get the service firmware from?
I am going to extract pit file from my phone and I am curious if it would be the same as the one extracted from the service firmware ...

Yes, of course. From Samsung's servers via Samfirm tool.
The pit-file should be the same, I believe.

Thanks but it looks (as OP states) like deprecated and will rather not work for S5 MM. Somebody tried already for s5 and it didn't work but I will give it a try.

Checked and it worked but I got for my phone a zip file where only one tar.md5 file was included - the same like I would get from Sammobile and no PIT file inside.

I must have missed that. Thanks! It did the trick.
So having now two PIT files for my phone (SM-G900F/XEO): one extracted from original Sammy service firmware and the second one which I extracted from my phone via adb command line, I was able to do a small experiment - compared both files using PIT Magic.
The result was as expected -> both PIT files are identical
Someone might be interested to try and flash this combination/engineering firmware.
Here's the download link - https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=8889791610682926646.
You can do developer stuff with combination firmwares like being able to change CSC using the *#272*[IMEI] method.
More information about combination firmware here.
Please note that you need to reflash the stock firmware to restore your device to its normal state for daily usage. You can easily download the stock firmware using frija or samfirm.
This can be flash using Odin. Follow the guide in this thread.
Unfortunately, I can not test this on my own. I don't have the unit.
For those who have tested, kindly share your experience in this thread to help others.
Will update this OP for any additional info.
Update: There's a working method for changing CSC in N986B/DS variant in this thread. Pls check it out.

Oh, I think you need to back up your pit using Z3X box.
It' too risky to flash pit file also.
It may be better to try to flash the old stock firmware version.
