hi,
I have got myself into a situation where I am seeking your knowledge. I have flashed all 4 files including the pit file on gs2 but now memory has been reduced to 8gb. Is there a way to revert back to 16gb?
I am thinking of either reflashing the stock Androind 4.0.3 which might fix this?
or flash the recovery pit file posted in one of the forums plus other 3 files?
Please let me know.
Thanks
V
All sorted just used the recommended pit file from the forum which i presume was extracted from 4.0.3 and then erased ny usb and it was back to 16 gb

Same Problem
I flashed the file too and my internal storage is donw to 8 from 16gb. Can someone post the pit file from 4.0.3 16gb if this works?
Edit:
on sammobile download the latest flashprogramm. There is a Pit file which could recover the storage maybe.
Edit 2:
Problem solved. Downloaded Flashprogramm + Pit on sammobile. Flashed the new Firmeware and selected Re-Partition with the pit which was in the Zip with Odin. After flash formatet internal Storage and Taadaa! My 11.50GB are back.
Best Regards
Daora
There's one on xda search for android 4.0.4 thread and someone has posted one there. Good luck.

Hi..sry for the big wall of txt
I live in the middle east and i bought a galaxy tab p7500 3g 64gb from Amazon..as you know they come without arabic language so i need to flash the arabic firmware (ROM) and i already have all the files ready for flashing..but my question is where can i find a pit file that is compatible with the 64gb unit..because from my experience flashing the wrong pit file it will reparation the sdcard incorrectly.
i.e. once i used a 16gb pit file on my 32gb galaxy s2 my internal storge changed from 32gb to16gb and the problem didn't get solved untill.i flashed 32gb pit file into the odin..so please can anyone help me on this.
Im sorry if i post on the wrong fourm..but this is my first time posting in XDA fourm and i will appreciate any help
One last thing if i installed the arabic rom without using the pit file and removed the tick from repartion in odin will this method work.

Hey Fabledude I'm sorry to be off topic, but I'm having a similar problem you mentioned about your SGS2...i have one and did the same thing... I desperately need a PIT file...
could you please help me?
You never have to use a pit file, so just don't load one or click repartition. The flash will work.
If you really want a backup of your pit just incase you can back it up using Heimdall.
Shadowofdarkness the pit file is for the 32GB SGS2-s... we need it so that the internal storage does not become 16GB
My phone is Galaxy s2, ICS 4.0.3(official). I did wipe cache partition, it's so long unfinished. So i removed battery. After turn on the device, my usb total storage 16 Gb was decrease to 4 Gb.
About 10Gb show as Misc. can't use. How can i fix this problem. please help me
Can you post the full firmware version as well as the kernel version?
Hopefully it was not another superbrick.
Your internal storage? Or SD Card?
If it's your internal storage then go check out this thread, same problem.

please help me
Flash the pit file provided from the link at ercxar's post, using Odin with ONLY the .pit file.
Let it run and it will reboot and stuck during booting. Remove the battery and put it back.
Boot into download mode, flash the ROM.
Friends I updated my S2 to ICS 4.0.4 via Kies and after that when i formatted my USB Memory i was shocked to see that the USB Memory shrunk down to 4.11GB from 11.5GB.
I tried flashing the official I9100_XWKL1_INU_2.3.6 but NO SUCCESS !!!
I tried flashing the same firmware using pit file u1_02_20110310_emmc_EXT4 nut NO SUCCESS again !!!
I don't want to use GB 2.3.6 tough, please guide me how to get back my S2 running with official ICS 4.0.4 (I1900XWLPW Firmware, for INDIA).
I am banging my head since last 3 days to get it fixed, have searched and tried everything found on net, any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks !!!
After flashing 16GB pit file format your internal sdcard again.

Thanx
Its done... thanks a lot
as we all know i9100 has a bug where data partition gets bricked and is no longer accessable sooo i made a fix after bricking my phone
1.Download the attached Data Fix .pit file And The Attached Siyah Kernel .tar File
2.Open Odin And boot ur phone in odin mode or download mode
3.Flash the Phone With siyah kernel as PDA And Data Fix.pit file as the PIT . NOTHING ELSE.
4. Reboot to siyah recovery . Wipe Data . Go in mounts and storage and mount usb storage with ur phone attached to PC . When internal memory shows on PC Format it.
5. Thats it ur phone is fixed . Now Flash a stock firmware using odin or flash a rom via recovery its upto u but dont flash with the pit file .. if u have to use a pit file always use the data fix pit file from now on the original pit file wont work on our phones now
Note: u will lose 2gb of internal storage but phone will be fixed.
ill attach the Data fix.pit file below
Only For i9100 16 gb ill make one for 32gb if someone needs
I've heard dangerous things about PIT files, I cannot format my /data partition or flash ROMS through Odin so I came here, can anyone confirm or deny if this may help. Is this even safe?
look bro try it if it dsnt work u can just flash ur original pit i myself have tried it i had the same problem its perfectly working for i9100 16gb

it actually creates a new data partition removing the previous one. it wont cause any harm to your phone that much i can assure u .
and every step is well thought so dont skip any step.

amazing
I tried everything to unbrick my friend's i9100m. This is the only thing that worked. So simple and easy to do!
Nice thread :thumbup:
Do you get random freezing on your device after applying this fix ?
actually yeah but its very rare I dont think its caused by my solution
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
can you confirm ?
then only i can use it or sec rom is is good too
dude I confirm it
I made this pit file myself
the freezing is just like once in a week. then u just have to restart the phone so dont worry theres nothing wrong with the pit file the freezing is due to the corrupt data partition.
