Why the hell are you using the pit file and re-partition? Who even said that was neccessary?
Lite'ning installation guide said:
Make sure that in Odin nothing is checked, except the "Auto reboot" and "F. Reset Time" checkboxes.

Uh oh! Won't help you now, but all the guides I've ever read say that you should almost *never* need to check the re-partition option, and if you think you do, go back and triple-check.
EDIT: Bear in mind I'm no expert, so you might wanna ignore this, but all I can think of suggesting is perhaps flashing a ROM which *does* need the re-partition option, like in http://androidflip.com/install-android-234-gingerbread-update-samsung-galaxy-2/
That said, this is assuming your phone isn't so screwed that you can't get it to download another ROM...

this pic is in stock ROM xxxkg3 !!
i didnt check re-part while flashing litening roms !

So what state is it currently in? Is it hanging on boot up, can you still get to the download option on the phone (vol-down, home key, and power key)?

firmware upgrade encountered an issue . please select recovery mode in kies & try again !!
my phone stoped in this situation ! what is this ? in kies - recovery mode it wanna
a recovery code ! where can i get this damn code to recover my phone to health ??
can go to downloading mode but i cant go to recovery mode to wipe cache !!

plug the phone into pc and open kies, and there is an option for "emergency firmware recovery" option in the later versions.
have you tried to flash an older rom (without re-partition or pit!!) via Odin?

Just flash a stock rom in while in download mode (as you say you can boot into it with voldown-home-power combo), then after the reboot go to recovery and factory reset.
After that all should be safe.
You might want to try another version with repartitioning to get back properly.
I9100XXKG1 (https://hotfile.com/dl/123505846/5faca77/I9100XXKG1.rar.html) downloaded from samfirmware should work, never failed for me.
Sidenote: with the stock roms (3 files + .pit file) that contain the user_low_ship it is rather save to repartition (although there are a very few roms that don't work/flash properly but reflashing another rom fixed it), did that myself over 10 times to get full performance back again while flashing to often between several custom roms.
Just keep in mind, if you still can get to the download mode it isn't fully bricked, but just soft-bricked, and that last one can be fixed

Don't forget to reboot phone or pull battery. Once a flash fails you need to restart phone and put back into download mode. Otherwise it will not accept any flashes and keep failing. Remove repartition check as well

Bricked Vibrant

I flashed CM7 last night and i didn't like it so i went into recovery and tried to flash another rom. However, it says that installation aborted and can't really flash anything. I then went into reboot and now, my phone is stuck on the Vibrant screen. I can't go into recovery at all. Even if i press the power button and the volume keys all together, it just turns off and goes back to the vibrant screen again. Battery pull doesn't do anything. help.

2 - DOWNLOAD 3 FILES
Download ODIN (below). It does not work on Macs. You will need Heimdall and can be found HERE << LINK.
HERE IS ODIN << DOWNLOAD THIS

TWO FILES ARE NEEDED TO LOAD IN ODIN FOR GOING BACK TO STOCK JFD (2.1 Eclair)
The PIT FILE << DOWNLOAD THIS

The TAR FILE << DOWNLOAD THIS

MD5: 632730F6B637F53E5B10E5CBC8B966A7
Move all files to Desktop.
- Mount your phone and move the rom to the internal (sdcard/ ) & the update.zip file (if needed)
- Power down the phone, or pull the battery.
3 - DOWNLOAD MODE
*NOTE - IMPORTANT*
On my PC, ODIN will NOT work when my camcorder is plugged in.
If you notice ODIN not working, you may pull the battery if it has not started/hung (again, at YOUR risk, not my fault/responsibility). Remove any USB devices just in case if you are worried about it, I have to.
Quote
1- Open ODIN on your PC. (DO NOT PRESS/SELECT ANYTHING IN ODIN!)
2- Plug in the USB Cable to PC
(preferably the one that came with your phone *My N1 cable doesn't work??*)
3- Power down Phone if you had not already.
4- Remove the battery.
5- Plug USB into Phone.
6- Hold down BOTH volume buttons and while holding both, insert the battery.
7- Two to three seconds later your phone will be in Download Mode.
Be mindful to not remove connection while ODIN is running.
** ALT METHOD
You can also just power down the phone, open ODIN, load the pit and tar, connect USB to pc, hold both volume buttons and connect USB to phone. This is how I do it. Some are not able to do this so the above instructions were used just in case. **
4 - ODIN

Go back to ODIN on your PC. Should be a yellow box under ID COM, Something like COM 5. If not, likely a problem with your drivers, see this THREAD FOR DRIVERS that I created. Should help. If you were on Cyanogen or MIUI you may need the Nexus S Drivers, Google them.
Click the PIT button, Select the PIT file from desktop
Click the PDA button, select the TAR file
** Re-partition is checked now in ODIN - THIS IS APPROPRIATE!! **
Click Start. Unless ODIN hangs, you should see a progress bar start soon after. The process takes a few minutes and you told ODIN to reboot once done.... so... when your phone boots up, you are on stock JFD.
IF ODIN HANGS ON YOU:
- Are you using my files (all 3 of them?)
- Did you check the MD5 using Hashtab (LINK)?
- Are you using the cable that came with your phone?
- Have you tried other USB ports on you PC?

Which Recovery Stock or Custom (TWRP/CWM) ??? Any Explained Scenario what exactly you did???
Your Device N910F or N910C???
If Your Device doesn't properly start...
First Try through Samsung Kies Recovery if yours Official....
Other Option is to Download & Flash Appropriate Firmware For Your Device....

Ignore that message. Click on firmware initialisation and put in your serial number and whatever else it asks for and let Kies do its thing.

I presume by Odin 10.00 you mean 3.10? If so, try DL 3.09 and use that - it's what I have used all along with my Note 3. Odin is not necessarily 'latest is best' in versions.
Next, turn phone OFF and even remove battery for 10 secs or so, then start Odin and then start phone into Download mode and THEN connect it to PC - do you get the blue OK in Odin? Do you get an 'Added' in the action box?
Which firmware are you trying to flash?
Something else to try is to turn phone off, wait a bit, start using the download mode keys but press Vol DOWN to start instead of Vol UP to go into DL - sometimes lets the phone boot.

I need help! My s4 i9500 is bricked! :(

hello my name is didiel and only little English, I have a s4 i9500 and install a new room and also a new recovery the team win, I Use for a few months and decided it was time to do a factory reset, the phone is turn off and appeared this logo for a moment, then he took off and appeared again, wait for over half an hour and was the same so I despair and remove the battery, then lit it and not respond only remained on the logo of team win one and again, I can not enter the recovery mode I can only enter download mode, try putting on a ROM stock with Odin but does not detect any uSB cable with I could do to fix it?

Have you tried different USB ports and operating systems? Did you try deleting and re-installing drivers? Does the phone charge via USB cable?

Reflash TWRP 2.8.7.0 recovery and trying to install any custom rom.
After if u want go back stock rom, go developer option and check USB Debugging check box then connect your mobile to your PC and flash stock rom via Odin.
Good Luck !!
