Pit files are really "last resort" situation. What error are you getting?
What version of odin are you using?
What model of the note4 do you have?
What happened in the first place that got you here?
Have you tried to search for a fix?
What have you tried?
More info is needed mate.

Im also on the hunt for a PIT file. I had to use one on my 9505 a few times after a brutal softbrick/almost hardbrick to recover it.

Well I was trying to flash twrp trough the twrp app. But it failed. And when I wanted to reboot in recovery.. All my phone could do was boot in download mode. So I looked for the latest lollipop firmware from Samfirmware and got an error in odin. Something about the size is too big. 85098<125876 and odin said something about exfat hidden (I'm not really sure anymore). I got my phone back to work by flashing a random pit file I found on my pc. Definitely not a note 4 pit and it failed but for some reason it rebooted back to my 4.4.4 rom as it was before I bricked it. Strange. Cause odin was almost at the end of its flash so I assume some things were flashed...
Odin version 1.83 I guess but I tried it also with 3.04 and same error
I have nite 4 sm-N910F
Searched for a pit file but as I said it was fixed by a failed flash of 4.4.4 original firmware trough odin with a totally different pit file. For some reason it booted up again. So now my phone is back... If I put it manually in download mode... Will I have the same error? Cause yeah it's not bricked... See?

What that app did was wipe you're recovery... All you would of had to do was flash a twrp/cmw/PHILZ recovery.

Bricked my sgs4?

Hi, Tried to install root through odin for the first time but the install didn't complete.
Now my sgs won't boot anymore.
It gives, the firmware upgrade error.
I can boot into download mode.
When i try to flash the original firmware for the i9505 it gives an error (something about a pit file missing)...
What can i do to get my sgs4 working again?

seems partitions are corrupt so try getting the 16GB pit file and set it in odin with the repartition option enabled..... and try flashing the new firmware
Under normal circumstances, DO NOT tick "re-partition" during Odin flash of firmware.
Only tick "re-partition" if you have the PIT file as described in previous post
Ensure any firmware (double check !) is that for your specific model.

There's a .pit file in the DOWNLOADER folder at this link: moulnisky DOT com/index.php?dir=Samsung/Firmwares/GT-I9505/
I haven't tested it so don't know if it works, but there you go.
P.S. I had the same issue and restored my phone using Kies firmware recovery mode: samsung DOT com/us/support/SupportOwnersFAQPopup.do?faq_id=FAQ00048586&fm_seq=52928

flashed wit pit file .. still no success.. I used a European pit file..
where can I find uae pit file.. or the pit file is common
If you can reach boot loader, or even power on in any form it's not a hard brick. - It'll just be a case of finding the correct firmware and PIT file and reflashing.
What software was on before?
What software did you try and flash?

OK if you have tried an EU PIT file, you'll need to find the full firmware for your region as you've probably changed the partition stuff now with the EU PIT. Grab the Dubai firmware (latest if possible) then do a fresh flash via ODIN (use 1.85) and you should be good to go.

[Q] S5 SM_G900F lollipopXXU1BNL9 TWRP install fail

Please help!!!!
I have a SM-G900F S5.
Just updated to XXU1BNL9 Lollipop.
Not clean install, I upgraded it. All official releases from Sammobile, done with Odin 3.09.
Upgrade went all ok, fine, up & running.
Tried to install TWRP 2.8.4.0, also with Odin 3.09
10/10 times it fails with write error.
Any ideas???
Would like to root my phone, so this first step would be really necessary!
Thx!
I fixed Odin fail with a pit file...
Download pit fie for your device...
Open Odin... Flash firmware
When Odin fail... Unplug cable... Plug it back... Uncheck that box with pda (and leave it there) ... Load pit file... And hit start even if the error is still there... After U hit start button It should finish and auto reboot
I USED THIS METHOD JUST FOR FIRMWARE FAIL... I DON'T KNOW IT WILL WORK WITH CWM FAIL in Odin
Also... You should try to download again twrp... Or another source... Version... Etc im sure that the error it's because of the cwm file

Thx for the ideas, I will try them.
I tried to unplug-replug cable, download other TWRP, also from different sources.
Seems as if it was some writing authentication issue of some kind - but no idea, why.

I tried everything else expect the pit file.
I did not find a pit file for the XXU1BNL9 version.
Also, I did not find ClockworkMod for Lollipop, only for 4.4.x
So, I triedTWRP 2.8.1.0 and 2.8.4.0 - both ending the same way: The recover flashing starts with Odin, and then it is almost immadiately fails with some write problem. It seems as if the recovery tar.md5 is not compatibl with the ROM version, or as if some mysterious Samsung protection would reject the recovery flash.
Strange thing is, that all forums (e.g. droidviews, ibtimes, xda, etc.) give a description about rooting this ROM, and not even one mentiones any phenomenon like this.

Soft Brick - FAILED TO MOUNT SYSTEM - Help

Good night guys, so there's my problem:
I was on DN 0.6.1 custom ROM, TWRP 3.0.2.0 and rooted. Today, i wanted to go back to stock ROM, so, I downloaded the stock firmware throught sammobile, and tried to install it throught ODIN 3.11, but it's stopped at system.img, and remained stuck in it for a long time. so i decided to restart the phone..
Then it's showed the follow message:
firmware upgrade encountered an issue note 4. Please select recovery mode on kies and try again.
So, i tried to re-flash throught ODIN, but stucked at system.img again, after it, I downloaded KIES and tried restore it, but it's stopped at 2%.
I wasn't abble to go to recovery mode, only download mode, so, i extracted the ROM file, and flashed only the boot.img through ODIN. Now it's boot to recovery...
I wiped data/cache, but the following error showed up:
E: Failed to mount system (invalid argument).
and now i can't find a solution for it.. tried to do amost anything that i could find on the internet, but none solved my problem...
I'm wanting to flash PIT + CSC + PDA file, using the repartition option on ODIN, but i'm afraid that may brick my phone for ever...
I'm following this tutorial by now: http://forum.xda-developers.com/note...-t-w8-t3282641
And i need this CSC file, because my phone is the C version, could someone give me link to download it ? couldn't find in any place.
ANd there's someone who could help me ? i'm very concerned about it because i don't have money to buy another phone at the moment...
Thanks, and yes, already looked at XDA for a answer but couldn't fine any.
THANK YOU

First, thread belongs in Help section not Dev.....
Second, are you sure you downloaded the right firmware from SamMobile? If restore in TWRP works, partitions most likelyaren't jacked up.

Are you sure it's system.img not hidden.img? I ran across something after attempting ODIN flashes starting a few version back.
You need to re remove hidden.img from tar file and flash it separate. Sucks but it's been working for me.

ODIN : Flash read failure + No pit binary

Hello guys,
My note 4 was having some reboot problems and when I try to boot in recovery mode I was getting error that it couldn't boot in normal mode.
I read somewhere that I should be doing a clean flash for the PIT file and the stock Rom, I started with the PIT file and it went perfectly with Odin.
But later when I tried flashing the ROM, it fails with the following errors:
- ODIN: flash read failure
- ERROR: There is no pit binary
I'm sure I have used the exact pit file for my model, I've tried flashing the Rom and the pit file at the same time but always the same error, now even retrying to flash the PIT file fails.
I'm wondering if there is any way I can fix this problem.
Thank you

I bet 100$ (which you'll pay) that nobody can find in your message the hidden sentence about the model of your note 4.
If, by the grace of the literate and smart people here, someone can 100% say that your phone is a 910F or similar model with a Snapdragon CPU, then...
Maybe your phone has a health problem plague called eMMC failure.
Or so it looks like.
You want my paypal account ? :silly:
Did you try newer versions of Odin?
And try also the PC app of Samsung - SmartSwitch - it can flash the original firmware based on the SN of your phone (located under the battery).
Read some more about these steps and try.
Tho, it looks like a dead emmc.

Sorry man, I forgot to mention my phone model, which is N910F.
The eMMC failure error only showed once on the recovery mode.
I've tried different versions of Odin, 3.13, 3.10 and 3.09, same error.
I also tried with SmartSwitch but for some reason they say that my model is not supported.

Interesting, I have an 910C (Exynos) and the SmartSwitch worked for me - I've had a soft brick too.
Oh, well... don't have too many hopes for the emmc issue. As far as it's known this means death.
Sorry for your loss.
