My Samsung Galaxy S6 is bricked

Question

I recently bricked my Samsung Galaxy S6 SM-S906l while trying to flash TWRP recovery.



Apparently, it was an unsupported recovery and I need to reflash the original recover with Odin, but it says it needs the PIT file.



How do you obtain the PIT file?

Answer

The SM-S906L is the same device as the SM-G920V [source]. You should be able to use the PIT for the SM-G920V. You can get the PIT here.



I also found it here (and it is labeled as the SM-S906L, but has the same file name as the one that is specified for the SM-G920V).
