[Q] Need PIT file for Galaxy S4 I9505

sandeepsb · Jun 10, 2013

Hi Everyone

I've bricked my S4 stupidly by trying to install CF Auto Root without having USB Debugging enabled.

No my phone starts up telling me there was an incomplete upgrade and to continue it but kies can't seem to find anything.

I've tried reflashing the stock firmware but I keep receiving a error saying it can't find the PIT file for mapping.

Does anyone have one for the S4 I9505 INTL (UK) Variant.

Thanks

I've just downloaded your pit file. The problem here is I can't get back into my phone and I can only go into download mode. Initially I set USB Debugging as off and tried flashing. So now I'm stuck with a bricked phone.

NO need to enable usb debugging to flash with odin, just put pit file and the firmware in odin and flash

remove pit file from folder and put it on desktop and the firmware and odin
use odin 3.07 or 1.85
change usb port and use original cable
if you can go in recovery (i doubt)make a wipe)
retry

Crisis averted

just flashed the PIT without anything in the PDA section and I've managed to boot back into my phone.

Thanks for the help and the PIT file.

glad to hear that, but usually it is flashed with the firmware if you would try again you will succeed......any way you make it :good:

Brownie2k · Jun 10, 2013

Same happened with me, no matter how many times I tried flashing the PIT with the firmware, it just wouldn't have it at all.
When I flashed the PIT on it's own, it flashed fine, said reset, then booted back into android.

Glad you got it sorted though! It's scary when you see FAIL in big letters when flashing stuff! haha.

but in some cases where there is a serious firmware issue, pit file will work only with flashing firmware

reflash with i9505-cwm-recovery-6.0.3.2-4

wipe all

reflash with pit CSB_signed_Fusion3_EUR_0325_V2 and pda I9505XXUAME2_I9505OLBAMDM_I9505DXUAME2_HOME.tar

Just a word from me guys.

Please don't underestimate power of changing USB port and/or USB cable. I've just been sitting on soft-bricked s4, nothing seemed to work, ODIN 3.x or 1.8, original firmware or third party ROM/recovery etc, PIT file, nothing could be overwritten. I restarted PC and instal/reinstall drivers.. nothing.

I've changed the cable and USB port to the rear one et voila, all worked as a charm.

good luck.
