Hi,
I need to re-allocate memory on my device. It was brought as a live demo model... i have since rooted and flashed a custom ROM but i only have 2gb out of 16gb usable due to the allocation of the memory on the demo unit. System shows at 11gb and i have no custom recovery backups.
I have located a PIT file online ...but the file is posted as a PITname.pit.txt and i cannot get Odin to recognise this as it is just a text file. Is there any way i can convert or use this file?
Please help me.
Many Thanks

thats because of the wrong pit file which is causing the problem for u
try flashing the correct pit file thro ODIN after checking 're-partition' and u will have ur fullsdcard size back

For the same reason that whenever you buy a external HDD or a SD Card its never the full amount you expected. Manufacturers use different scale to count a MB and GB then 99% of desktop/mobile OS's do.

Hello, telephone bricked deal with their own stupidity (CF root by Odin to stock kernel 4.0.4), but never mind. Fortunately, I was able to upload a file that Okraj pit the internal memory of the phone with 2 GB of thanks to you and restore your phone to "life" for what a huge thanks! However, such a thing bothering me now is how the phone is no longer healthy or not it could be uploaded into the pit of the old file with the memory 11 GB?
My dear friends,
I have tried pit files available from different locations and ended up having corrupt Internal storage. The device recognize only 1.8 GB and the PC just 1 GB. After converting the device to I9100 i am able to see the Internal storage but not in the native mode.
Request if you guys can share the correct SHW-M250K model pit file please.
Hope this thread dont die with any replies.
hello,
I have a samsung galaxy tab a.
this is a nice device but only has 8 gb of internal memory. it runs android 5.1
I'm trying to switch the internal and external sd memory. (to get more internal memory)
first of all the device needed to be rooted. I have done this, without any problem..
then I started searching how to switch the memory. I have tried different apps for this but they where not working.
after this I tried to swap the memory manually. I read somewhere this can be done in the vold.fstab file.
I didn't found this file.
after reading more about the topic I found out that the mounting for android 5.1 is done in the boot.img file.
I looked for how to unpack this file, and I'm doing this now with cygwin and android kitchen 0.224
I can unpack the boot.img but have a few questions.
1) the mounting should be done in fstab.<devicename>...... the device name is Galaxy Tab A (2016) but I can not find fstab.galaxy Tab A (2016), but fstab.goldfish and fstab.sc8830 is it possible the mounting is done in one of thes files ? (they are found in the root of the boot.img
2) what should I change in these files?
3) afther I have changed the mounting, how can I with android kitchen repack the boot.img
thank for any help
best regards,
Bart
Hi guys! I have a problem with my Samsung Galaxy J2 Prime (SM-G532M). It had 16GB of internal memory, until it flashed with an internet firmware. After that it is only recognizing 8GB of internal memory. After a lot, a lot, but a lot of research, I did not find a firmware that made available the 16GB and not a PIT file. I studied a bit about PIT files, but nothing that enabled me to edit the various partitions, with their "strange" values. I even tried to use the Samsung Galaxy J2 Prime TV PIT file (SM-G532MT) believing it to be 16GB (but I used the SM-G532M's PDA). But compared them I realized they were the same! Please help me! Having more 8GB of internal memory and not being able to use it is lousy!
I have the same problem, I noticed that using the app file explore it only finds 2gb only, this is very strange. I also downloaded several firmware and can not change
Having the same problem here, and it's making me insane! Can someone help? After flashing the stock rom the phone tells me i have only 8gb internal storage instead of my actual 16gb.
I solve it; although I'm not sure how.

I made multiple attempts, until I could find the "recovery mode", there I did all the "wipes" and then I gave "mount storage". Then, after the restart I already recognized the storage of 16 Gb.
Here are my hypotheses: 1) The ROM was not completely installed. Well, until he finally entered the recovery; did not finish working the "android". 2) Simply, complete cleaning is necessary after installation of the ROM STOCK. 3) I did not recognize the storage because the extra storage was not "mounted" for which the ROM was not prepared that we invented (it may be prepared for the 8 GB version). 4) I forgot the fourth hypothesis. Excuse me. Greetings, I hope you find it useful. That was the only reason to answer here.
