Request - Pit file for ATT I467 on Android 4.4.2

[nugundam]

Does anyone have an extracted Pit file for an ATT I467 16GB? I got the tablet from someone on Craigslist advertising it as having a bad battery but when I got it home it obviously had some partition issues.

Recovery mode indicates that the tablet was upgraded to the 4.4.2 NI2 firmware. Manually flashing the 4.4.2 update from an external sdcard in stock recovery results in an error, somewhere along the lines of "failed to mount /system".

I can get into Download mode and when trying to downgrade to 4.1.2 with the Samsung stock F1 image, Odin fails when flashing about 80% of the system image.

I realize the request is a long shot and there obviously is not a Samsung stock image of 4.4.2 to flash through Odin. It is also possible that the problem could be with the actual chip but I would like to rule out software issues first.

I would be appreciated if anyone has this PIT file and share it with us. I have the same problem.

GT-N5100 (Note 8 - 3G)

The attached ZIP file has "kona3g.pit" -- PIT file for Note 8 3G. It was given to me by @civato :good: and it worked perfectly when I bricked my phone. :silly: AFAIK, the file structure stays same regardless of the carrier (my tablet isn't bound to any carriers). But, better you confirmed it with someone more knowledgeable.

Hope this will help you two as it helped me.

I tried the kona3g.pit file however Odin hangs at "Get PIT for Mapping". I've tried the repartition on 2 Windows 7 machines and 1 Windows XP machine.

The eMMC is probably damaged on this tablet.

AkiOrpheus, thanks for your contribution though.

Ooo no man you probably did f--- it up! Do you not know your own device or at try to know your device! Sorry came of a lil rude but ya man the pit file from the 5100 and the 5110 wont work for the SGH-I467 or the 5120! They ownly have 12 partitions for the system and the SGH-I467 and 5120 both have 21 partitions! So you need to find some1 that might have the pit file for the 5120! I saw on the Sprint Galaxy S3 forum where they had done found away to get the pit file from the system files thru a terminal emulator by running this command "dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0 of=/storage/sdcard0/out.pit bs=8 count=481 skip=2176"! I tried it on my S3 and it worked perfectly! I already had the pit but I wanted to see if it worked. So after seeing your post I gave it a try on my SGH-I467 and it looks like it worked! Now I dont have a the real pit file for for it or the 5120 to compare it to but it looks good. Of course im not gonna try it cause my Note 8 is fine (lol knock on wood) but given you already done tried using a completely different pit it couldnt hurt to try it maybe! So I uploaded it in a zip file if you wanna give it a try! I also uploaded the different partition layouts from the konalteatt (SGH-I467), kona3g (GT-N5110), konawifi (GT-N5100), and the konalte (GT-N5120) if any1 else wants to look and see what I mean about the different partition layouts! If any tries the pit let me know if it works or what!

Actually the previous owner messed up the tablet. I couldn't really hurt it any further.

I was able to recently find someone else with an I467 and rooted it. I pulled the PIT file from it but it was on 4.1.2 instead of 4.4.2 so I don't know if Samsung made any changes to the partition layout from Jellybean to Kitkat (unless someone roots their I467 on 4.4.2 and extract their PIT and posts it for comparison). I used Pit Magic to analyze the file from the one AkiOrpheus posted and the Jellybean PIT I extracted and did notice a difference. So I was kind of aware there was a discrepancy.

I tried to flash AkiOrpheus/civato 's PIT anyway but Odin always hung at trying to read the PIT from the tablet so the PIT file never got written to the tablet. I also tried your file, RootSuperSU, with the same results.

I suspected the eMMC was damaged since other users reported successfully downgrading from 4.4.2 to 4.1.2 (with the exception of the bootloader). When I tried, Odin always failed at a specific spot (probably where the eMMC is damaged). So an eMMC swap is probably the only solution.

I do have a rework station to perform the swap but I paid so little for the tablet anyway if I parted it out I would still get more for parts (good screen, speakers, spen, SIM assembly, MicroSD card assembly...) than what I paid for the entire tablet and besides the eMMC chip would cost more than what I paid. I was also able to fully recharge the supposed "bad battery" and it works fine.

The troubleshooting process was fun and I appreciate everyone here that pitched in.

Now my GT-N5100 is on TouchWiz KK 4.4.4, and I can confirm that the partition layout stays same since I bought it with JB 4.1.2.

Probably you are right about eMMC. Once, I messed up my tablet's partition layout with the wrong PIT, but managed to recover once flashed with the correct PIT.
