[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] mmola:
I sent my emmc-bricked phone for warranty a month ago. What I did was to "triangle away" the phone, remove all personal data from the internal SD, and flash the latest official ROM available in my country (as per samfirmware) repartitioning with the original PIT provided in this thread. Of course, the phone didn't work, which is the reason you send it to warranty in the first place. I didn't tell the warranty people what I knew, just that it wasn't starting most of the time and wouldn't work for most than a few minutes when it did, and I had no idea why. It came back in a fully functional state in a couple of weeks.

I think Samsung is well aware that they are fixing many emmc-bricked phones, but it's probably their policy to just repair the terminal no questions asked. Still, no need to try your luck. If you use Odin and the flash fails because the internal SD is not working, well, that could have happened for "legitimate" reasons flashing through Kies, and the result would be approximately what they will find when they crack the phone open. Although personally, I don't think they try to do anything beyond starting it up, checking whether there's a yellow triangle there, and running some basic tests to determine where does the problem lie.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] eljuggy:
ok, thanks, I tried to flash a stock (but rooted) GB and odin failed (stuck at "write NAND...").

I'm downloading a stock ICS from samfirmware right now and will try again flash thru odin in a couple of hours :

1st without partitioning (again and see if it works this time)

2nd with default 16gb pit file as you advise.

if both fails, I'll see what to do...

Problem with Korean GNote

Hello...

I'm here with a Korean GNote SHV-E160L 32 GB and what I think is a problem with the internal flash drive...My original post:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=37454196&postcount=6

Basically, I'm in need of a PIT file for my phone. I'm afraid to try the files for other GNote phones since it's different models and possibly different hardware. I'm convinced it's the emmc because it's stuck in a boot loop, it doesn't boot into recovery and when I try to flash through odin it stops at write NAND. If I am wrong with my assumption please correct me.

Before I try anything with the partitions/tables is there a way to recover files from the phone? In the first post it says I need the .efs file, but I have no idea how to do this, because everytime I tried to flash a rom/recovery/anything through odin it would give me the write NAND error.

Is there still hope for my phone? :confused:

My family (including myself) is very busy preparing to move our home to a different town.

May be I am offline for some time.

May be I find some time in between to answer some questions or eventually may be able to generate some new pits, but no promises. You probably have to be patient, especially while my computers are disassembled or my internet connection is down.

I hope to answer the last two posts this weekend.

if you flash after 5 minutes, it not success, you fail. when you need flash a kernel ( like siyah ), and mount internal sd card, then copy all to computer, and run odin _ pit patch file to fix MMC corrupt ! run from small to big fix ( 256 MiB to 11776-MiB ) and flash fail in where ( DATAFS OR FACTORTYFS???) choice true ! you can run pit with flash. like I9100XXKI3, and maybe success over 90%.:victory:

Help

First of all... Sorry for my language, I'm Spanish and I can not speak very well in English. The phone can only run the download mode, if I try to enter the recovery,it reboots continuously. I try to flash a bootloader, an original samsung rom, the resurrection rom of CheckROM EvoHD™ V4 for i9300 to resurrect it, I tried to flash each file of the rom alone,bootloader,csc,pit,phone,pda... (odin) and tried to delete the nand and do all again. I only have a copy of the efs. The motherboard seems to be good, because it runs but when he is loading the SO it reboots. When he is turning on,the first screen is Samsung galaxy s3. Okey,thats good, but when he turn on it has this screen but with a ! in the edge. The next screen he runs is the logo of samsung with the animation of samsung.it seems to load,but when he is finishing the animation it reboots...The problem... I flashed so much roms, and the counter of the s3 shows that it was flashed 16 times... The warranty is not an option only because i tried to repair before send it to the warranty. (it is ilogic...) because the last time i have flashed a rom i used the "triangle away" and i dont have the problem.

I am trying to repair it without pay, but if i must pay, i should wait to the SIV or other phone you recommend me,because the tegra 4 is really a beast with all this graphic cores, Thanks a lot all your work!

regenerated all pit packages, added i9100_jb4.1

Hi,

there were some missing things in my latest files (e.g. the big partition was only shortened at end but not included in moved partitions), so I regenerated all pit packages with corrected settings.

I also added a pit package for i9100 shipped with jelly bean 4.1 which have a changed pit.

They moved FACTORYFS after DATAFS and HIDDEN before DATAFS.

FACTORYFS is doubled in size (ca. 0.5GB -> 1GB).

see attached image...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] hg42:
hmm, I re-read some posts in the thread and noticed I was plain wrong with this...sorry for this.

I don't know why I thought that patched pits for N7100 were posted by me. I think I was overloaded with numbers at that time and read N7000 as N7100 or something like that. SORRY...

The real problem was the zero size field for the UMS partition, which my pit patcher cannot handle correctly.

I still have to find a solution. At the same time I garbled my pit viewer, which may have confused me.

When I find a solution for the zero UMS, I will post an experimental pit package for N7100.

I think this should be possible.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] shoey63:
There is a new JB leak for N7000. (LM5) It comes with PIT files. Should be interesting to see if there are any modifications. If any user has downloaded it, please post PIT files here for HG42 to analyse. (At his leisure of course).

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] hg42:
N7100 pits

so, there it is.

Notes:

I am *NOT* familiar with that device. It's all done from theory and imagination.

The size field for USERDATA in the original PIT is zero.

So, I assumed that the USERDATA partition is automatically expanded to the end of the flash memory.

I assume the original pit is designed any N7100 (with any memory size).

Please report, if there are other pits for different N7100 models.

The patches keep the zero value for the size of the USERDATA assuming it will take the remaining part of the available flash memory.

The HIDDEN and OTA partitions are in between the moved partitions, so they have to be restored, too.

I think, at least you have to format it in some way. Please report how you did this and if it were successful.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] hg42:
:confused:

hmm, is this shw m250k also called i9100? or is it a totally different model like it is for the different Galaxy Notes (international N7000 etc.)?

I am asking because I used the i9100 tag for the patched pits, looks like this is wrong.

Should I use something like SHW-M250K instead?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] hg42:
well, I assume they used a similar repartitioning method, too (or may be they used my pits).

So I would assume they didn't really repair it (which needs a new motherboard => expensive), but used a repartitioning workaround instead (no hardware costs).

You could use parted in adb to get your current partition table.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] phatwin2004:

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] hg42:
please attach a screenshot from the failing Odin session.

I doubt it can be solved with a pit file.

This only works, if download mode can apply a pit file (you could first try with your original pit).
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] hg42:
I provided this already in the new i9100-jb4.1 package.

Along with increasing the size of FACTORYFS, they also reordered the partitions, so you will not find a direct replacement/equivalent to your successful pit.

Just choose a fitting file from the new package.

Notes:

The loss is always < 1/4 GB compared with an optimal (hand-made) pit (the end is moved in 1/4 GB steps).

The loss in front of the brick cannot be optimized, the value depends on the partition start.

The gap can only start at the beginning FACTORYFS, DATAFS, etc.

I think I will rename the package to something like SHW-M250K_jb4.1 according to the info in your post (thanks!), but I have no spare time currently.

the pit is the same I used for the existing epic-4g package.

I added a "FOR-EXPERTS-ONLY" variant with a gap start at CACHE or MODEM.

Note: this is a former "experimental" package, which I all renamed to "FOR-EXPERTS-ONLY", to be more clear for noobs that are not able to read the first post in it's entirety.

It should be clear, that you have to restore the MODEM partition if it is affected by the repartitioning.

The MODEM contents should be included in some stock ODIN packages on samfirmware.

Note: Sometimes the MODEM version has to be compatible with the ROM because the API may change from time to time.

Therefore, you should inform yourself about those dependencies before flashing.

Sorry, I have no time to read your complete thread.

It looks like you always used cm?

Did you ever wipe under a stock ics/jb kernel?

I would recommend to read this thread, at least read the thread starter carefully.

Usually you cannot use a pit of a different device. Most devices have different partition layouts.

The repartitioning shouldn't change crucial partitions like boot loaders and efs etc. otherwise your phone will need jtag because it will not boot anymore.

But I have pits for your device, see thread starter.

May be you need some expert pit (eventually your cache is bricked?)

Because you currently cannot use your recovery, you should first try to flash (via Odin) a safe custom kernel (I'd recommend a cm kernel or an old gb kernel).

If this works, you will have a usable recovery. Then you can check for the emmc brick (use my scanners) and follow my instructions in this thread.

The pit is correct.

You may have got a moving brick or may be it moves for some time until it finally gets stable.

You should scan again to get the new limits of the brick (if it has moved at all). Then use a new pit.

I've done the scan several times, but it's still in the same place. Again using both pit I mentioned.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] hg42:
getting closer to the brick area will not help.

I think I would try a bigger gap, that is increase the second number (end of gap) by some GB.

E.g. you could try an end of around 5000MB, let's see if this behaves different.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] hg42:
You should have a remaining size of about 9GB, if you chose the correct pit from my(!) packages.

The end is variegated in 256MiB steps, this should be small enough. The start can only step over partitions. E.g. if I move factoryfs the start is at the beginning of factoryfs, but if I leave factoryfs in place I have now to start after factoryfs, so the step is the size of factoryfs.

So what you want is not possible.

Just choose the correct pit with the closest numbers (first choose start value, then end), then you are max. 256MiB near the optimum possible.
