I searched across the forum but I didn't find clear answer about my question...
when I should use the pit file and when I shouldn't If I use Odin to flash stock rom ?
Or it depends on if my tab is P7500 or P7510?
Or its optional?
Or or or?
So can one please clarify that for me please...
Thank u in advanced...

AFAIK it is optional. But many people say it is good to use pit file while flashing with ODIN.
Also the pit file is same for both 7500 and 7510.
Thank u ansonantonym for ur answer...
Any one else also have some info about my question?

I think the pit file tells odin how to repartition the device. Does anybody know where I can download the pit file? I don't see it on samfirmware
This is the pit file

Search for Check Fus and download it, download your firmware with it and flash it via Odin. ;-)

When you download your firmware you get a rar file, inside is a .md5.tar
Just extract it and place it in the PDA section of Odin and flash.

This should have been posted in Q/A however
you could try downloading Mobile Odin Pro from Google Play. Then go to Samfirmware.com and download your original firmware that came with the phone,( NOT A CUSTOM ROM). Unzip the file till you get to the .tar Put the firmware on the root directory of your sd card. Run Mobile Odin and install the firmware.
Mobile Odin
Buy Mobile Odin from play store (it's worth it and support @Chainfire) (here https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.chainfire.mobileodin.pro&hl=en) and flash to XXLPQ to restore to stock.
Instructions=http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1347899
Do not Flash XXLPQ if you have a variant other than the i9100 like SGH-T959
A thanks would be nice
Thanks guys

Yes. Don't change the name of the filename; *.tar.md5 is what it should be.
Hello,
Got the flashguide from samfirmware.com for the GT-P7500.
It mentions PIT, PDA and CSC files and all I found from samfirmware.com was the file corresponding to my stock firmware:
P7500OXAKG7_P7500XXKG7_P7500XXKG7.zip which has inside a tar (P7500OXAKG7_P7500XXKG7_P7500XXKG7_HOME.tar) which has inside::
recovery.img
system.img
boot.img
bootloader.bin
cache.img
hidden.img
modem.bin
and I also got from samfirmware a PIT file:
P7500_P7510_android_fastboot_emmc_full_p4_16G_32G.pit
--
So, briefly, I hav the PIT, and a zip with a .tar file inside with a lot of image files.
Since flashguide mentions, PIT, PDA and CSC.. well, I just get the PIT part right but what about the rest?
Thanks

I answer myself and I leave it here in case anyone new is seeking the same answer.
You can follow the nice guide from overcome in here: http://www.teamovercome.net/p7500/?page_id=5
In there it specifies you use pit file I got and the .tar file in PDA button to reflash to stock the complete tablet with odin
It worked fine for me with no problems at all.
Cheers!
Hi there, Last night I rooted and installed ics rom to my tab, but second thought, I want to get everything back to normal (unroot and get back to android 3.2), socan you guide me how to unroot my samsung galaxy tab 10.1 3g [P7500] ?

Samfirmware.com has the stock rom for you. Flash via odin and you will have stock rom and no root.

P7500 re stock files
Hi Daniel,
Samfirmware dot com doesn't provide valid links to the files requires to re stock p7500, due to hot file shutdown. In case you have stored locally the files could you be so kind to give them to me in order to re stock my gt-p7500 ?

Not sure about samfirmware, but sammobile has reuploaded all the stock ROMs to a new server.
