[Q] How do I make my N7100x COMPLETELY stock..(PIT file, custom rom - anything else?)

I I have a N7100x which has a USB OTG problem. I believe Samsung may have added something into the system firmware to stop USB OTG devices mounting correctly (this is one of the demo phones that you see in store - so I'm guessing Samsung wanted to stop people loading up custom software from USB devices).

Absolutely everything on it works correctly - aside from the disabled mobile network connectivity and the USB OTG.

I have so far installed;
- New PIT file to give it the same 16GB partition system as a standard Galaxy Note 2
- Rooted and installed Revolution HD 8.0

Are there any other things that I can flash to my device that may help me overcome this USB OTG issue. The devices mount, then disconnect a second later. The devices do work - but only momentarily. Is there some other flash file (I hear /efs come up every once in a while - can I install a different one of these? Is it likely to help?).
I'm hoping to find a solution to this USB OTG problen...would help a great deal.

Thanks

when you flash stock ROM just select pit
here is pit for 16GB
http://d-h.st/Dlv
Download and extract it, select for pit tab in odin (it will auto check for repartition)
rest of option is same as flashing stock ROM
thank for file, I flash it with odin, check repartiton, autoreboot and f.reset time and phone stuck on animation. Same result with doing the same + stock rom together. CWR show me, that it can not mount /data and /sdcard. So i thing that my note2 does not have 16 GB internal memory. Do you have stock pit file?

I took one 7100x live demo phone from our other showroom. Extract pit and flash it with odin. I was not successful again...f****.:banghead: My note2 was ready to be throwed through the Window..next time i flash only pit file without check repartition and i use older odin 1.85. Before i every time use 3.07. Then i format \data in stock recovery menu and then i flashed only rom. Woalla, android boot finally.:):) My internal ram is 11 gb now:).
This tutorial Maybe may help others with problem with formating \data partition and endless boot.

Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app

just in my opinion, which is the solutions for PIT formating problem is not in the odin version, buat you need to wipe data, cache, and also need to flash new ROM.

about the OTG problems, i have tried turn back to Stock ROM, but still has the same problem. OTG USB still connected --> Disconnected --> Connected in 2 second x_x

Is there some one out there who doesn't have this OTG Problem with their demo unit?? Please share

Thanks

I also have the gt n7100x and everything works on it apart from sim related activities like calling, texting and mobile network (also fm radio but i dont know why). does this model have an antenna/radio inside ? if so would it be possible to activate it ?

Can I flash my N7100X with any ROM for 'normal' N7100? The latest official rom for this device is N7100XXUENA1 - Android 4.3. Can I delete a dialer after flashing so my battery lives a little longer?

You don't need recharge a pit file for flashing v4.3.
You only put new file rom on odin,and all works fine.
Same situation for Flashing v4.4.2.

Bye.
