I went through the forum here for reverting back to stock or any other rom from CM7. I would like to post in that thread but don't have enough posts yet but my question is when I download the provided pit file it is a txt file. Do I just change the extension from .txt to .pit and flash that in ODIN with the TAR file included in the Linked post?
EDIT : after digging some more finally found a working link that is already in .pit format from PhoenixPath

Dear All,
I'm so sorry to disturb you with my thread, But I'm facing a problem with my S6 edge and I need the Pit file...
May someone can help me
BR
you don't need..load the firmware that matches most..rename tar.md5 to tar... extract it with winrar ..download the toolkit from original development thread..delete the hidden.img from the extracted firmware..now copy it to toolkit input folder and make a flashable Odin package.. should work
I am needing the pit file for the VZW tab SM-T537V. Can anyone post a link or this file.
Thanks
Hi to all.
I would like to ask a few questions, that i haven't been able to find the answer to,
even after extensive search.
I have a G925F with the G925FXXS5EQI7 Firmware.
As I have seen at sammobile.com, the newest and more common Firmware updates come with XXU Firmwares.
https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-s6-edge/SM-G925F/
The attempts to install a XXU Firmware over the XXS have failed,
with the error in Odin which I assume is because of the wrong hidden partition size and/or PIT file.
The /proc/partitions file in the XXS firmware has this in the partition table:
259 1 204800 sda17
so I assume it's the 200M partition size, correct?
I have seen this pages regarding the PIT files.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...g925-pit-files-multi-thread-download-t3171636
https://www.sammobile.com/forum/showthread.php?t=30136
The first one here at XDA has nothing but dead links,
while the second has every PIT file from the first one except the HIDDEN300M pit,
and a additional HIDDEN250M pit file not present in the first link.
So the questions I would like to ask are:
1. Could you please inform me on what is the correct PIT File to download,
in order to install the XXU Firmware? Any download link if possible?
2. I have read somewhere here in the forums that if I install the largest (so the HIDDEN250M, or 300M)
PIT file will allow me to install any firmware, but will eat away some MBs of storage, is that correct?
3. Should I install the PIT file alone, in the PIT options without any firmware, or along with a firmware?
4. Is data/cache wipe necessary, or could I just update from the XXS firmware without data loss?
5. With the correct (largest?) PIT file I will be able to install either XXU or XXS firmware, right?
I would really appreciate your input on this.
Thank you in advance.

Google. There are loads of links. Which pit you need?
It's quite easy.
Use samfirm tool in manual mode (enter which FW you want to have) and tick binary nature. It'll download the latest multi part factory image which contains the right pit file in the CSC part.
If odin detects it there it uses it.
Hi,
I own a SM-T365 tablet with Android 5.1.1 Lollipop. I want to repartition my tablet so the size of the data partition will be smaller.. it has 11.9GB and i would like it to be around 3GB and all the remaining free space will be unmounted for now.
I searched for a solution and found that I need to edit the PIT file and then flash it using Odin.
I downloaded the original PIT file and tried to flash it and it flashed successfully, then i tried to edit the PIT file using PIT Magic v1.3.10 but any change I am doing results in fail to flash the file..
When i try to flash the new PIT file using Odin it fails with the message in download mode: "SECURE CHECK FAIL: PIT".
Can anyone point to me what am I doing wrong?
Is there any other software to edit the PIT file?

wat do you mean up
