How to flash a samsung. Flash Android Samsung using Odin. For new smartphones it looks like this

Today, you can update or change the firmware of your device without contacting specialized centers. You are basically just wasting your money and time. How to reflash the phone yourself? We will give specific answers to this question in our article.

Firmware Features

Now we will list a few important items that are necessary for flashing your cell phone.

First, make sure that the battery is charged at 50 percent or more (the best option is a full charge), as the flashing process can be quite lengthy.
If you are afraid of losing important data on your cell phone, then back up your files and the information you need.
For flashing, you will need a standard USB cable that comes with the phone.
The PC must have the appropriate software to flash your phone. You can find all drivers on the official websites of manufacturers or in numerous alternative sources. There are pirated and licensed versions of the software, which differ significantly in their functionality. It should be noted that official ones are not always better than pirated ones. After successful installation, you need to restart your smartphone.
Your device must have a clean ESN, that is, not be in the database of stolen or lost.
Next, you need to find out (for some models) MEID and ESN, where the first consists of 18 (starting with 2) or 15 digits, and the last of 8.
Today there are 3 types of firmware: from a ZIP archive, a TAR archive, or a three-file one. Below we will go into more detail about each of them.

Are you still thinking how to reflash your phone? Believe me, it's not difficult at all. A little later you will see for yourself.

Firmware: "Android" from the ZIP archive

This is one of the best methods used by many users. So, how to reflash a phone ("Android") from a ZIP archive? First, you need to set root rights. It is worth noting that not all devices have this feature. Plus, having achieved root rights, you will immediately lose the warranty on the device. Secondly, you need to make a backup, that is, a backup copy of important files. What is needed for this? You can, for example, install a special system recovery program, an excellent example of which is ClockWorkMod. It is designed to flash phones on the Android OS, and in case of any failures, it allows you to return to the source code. To make a backup using the above program, you must take the following steps:

Launch ClockWorkModRecovery.
Select "Backup & restore".
Further "backup".
Confirm by pressing the "YES" button.
Reboot your device by clicking "Reboot system now".

After completing these steps, a backup should appear on your MicroSD in the "clockworkmod / backup" folder. At the end of all the above operations, you can proceed directly to the flashing. So, how to reflash a phone ("Android") from a ZIP archive?

After downloading the ROM file, write it to the memory card. The firmware name can contain Latin letters and numbers, and the file itself must be in a ZIP archive.
Disconnect your phone from PC and charger.
Next, turn off the mobile phone and start the recovery mode.
In the menu we find the item “Wipe”, which erases the current information of the system.
After that, you need to return to the root of the menu and select the item "Flash Zip from SD-Card" or "Install zip from sdcard".
We find the ROM firmware located in the ZIP archive.
We confirm the firmware and follow the instructions on the screen.
If everything went well and without errors, reboot the phone by selecting "Reboot system now".

We are done with the first method. Now let's move on to the 3-file firmware.

How to flash Android with three-file firmware

For this method, we need the Mobile Odin Pro app, which is another Android flashing program. If you decide to flash it in this way, then you can not get root rights. How to flash a phone with 3-file firmware? Let's move on to the algorithm of actions:

First you need to write files to a smartphone or tablet (3 files that have the words CSC, CODE, Modem in their names). It is desirable to throw all 3 files in one folder.
In the Mobile Odin Pro app, select "Open file".
Next, a window should appear where you need to select a file that has the word "CODE" in its name. Click "OK".
Then select the "Modem" item and press the "OK" button.
We check that all sections have data.
At the end of the check, click "Flash Firmware".
We are waiting for the firmware process to end, which can last over 15 minutes.

Finally, we move on to the last firmware method.

How to flash Android from a TAR archive

Not the most popular method, since there are very few firmwares that are packaged in a .TAR archive. Generally speaking, most of the process is the same as the previous method. How to flash a phone from a tar archive?

In Mobile Odin Pro select "Open file".
In the window, find and select the downloaded firmware, which has the format .tar or .tar.md5, which was previously written to the “Firmware” folder. Click "OK".
After we check that all sections have the necessary data.
Next, click "Flash Firmware".
We are waiting for the installation to complete and reboot the device.

I would like to say a few words about the firmware of Chinese phones. Such devices are updated in exactly the same way, but there are a number of nuances. Firstly, it is very difficult to find high-quality firmware, and for some gadgets it is completely impossible. Secondly, various fakes (like the iPhone, Galaxy S4 and others) are unreliable, which is why custom firmware can cause irreparable harm to the device. That's all, we hope that our instructions answered your question on how to reflash a Chinese phone and original devices in order to update an already boring system. However, remember that flashing Android is an operation at your own peril and risk, which may not have very rosy consequences.

How to flash a Samsung phone

In this section, we will describe flashing using the MultiLoader application. After downloading it, you need to run and select the "BRCM2133" item. Then follow these instructions:

We pass to the "Download" mode by holding down the off (lock) and volume keys. If the message “Download” appears on the screen, it means that everything went well.
We connect the phone to the PC using a USB cable. After detecting the device, press the "Download" button and wait a couple of minutes.
Disconnect USB and reboot smartphone. If the mobile phone starts in English, then we do a simple “Preconfiguration” by typing “*#6984125*#” → “Pre-configuration”, after which we enter the password “*#73561*#”. Select your country of residence and reboot. Next, in the window we drive in “*2767*3855#”, which will help reset the settings.
Everything is ready. The system has been updated. We think you understand how to reflash a Samsung phone.

Nokia Firmware

New models support the over-the-air flashing function, that is, without connecting to a PC. All you need is high speed internet. So, how to reflash a Nokia phone? First of all, go to the "Settings" => "Phone" => "Manage your phone" => "Device update" section. You will be presented with all the important information about the phone model and firmware version. Select "Functions" => "Check for Updates". If newer versions of the software are found, you will be notified and offered to upgrade the old firmware. Everything is done automatically.

If you wish to update the system via a computer by connecting a USB cable, simply download the Nokia Software Updater application and run it. Then follow the instructions that will appear on the screen of your smartphone.

How to flash an HTC phone

First you need to download the firmware itself. In addition, it is important to get root rights and make a backup according to the method described by us earlier. You can also create a backup using the Titanium Backup application. Let's get down to the process:

First we do a full "wipe". How to do this, we have already told.
Next, select "install zip from sd-card" in recovery.
After you need to enable or disable signature verification "toggle verification mode".
We find our firmware and run it. We are waiting for the update to complete and reboot. At the end, "Installation completed" should be displayed.

As you can see, the firmware of phones of this model largely coincides with the method of flashing from a ZIP archive that we described earlier.

Sony Xperia Firmware

For the firmware, we need the Flashtool program and a USB cable. Let's start the process. So, how to flash a Sony Xperia phone?

First, we download the firmware we need, which will have the .ftf format.
We drop this file into the / flashtool / firmwares folder.
After you need to run the FlashTool utility, turn off the phone and wait 30-60 seconds. Next, click on the button in the application where the lightning is drawn, and select "Flashmode".
A little later, you will be given a message that the firmware is ready for installation, and you need to connect the device.
We hold down the key responsible for lowering the volume, after which the Flashtool program identifies your device.
We are waiting for the end of the firmware until the inscription "Flashing finished" appears. We reboot the device and enjoy the updated software.

We turn to the last phone, for which we will tell the firmware process.

Fly Firmware

So, how to reflash a Fly phone? Follow the algorithm:

We connect the phone (turned off) to the PC via a USB cable.
Download, install and run the same FlashTool.
Go to the "Download" section, where we indicate the COM port and speed (we do not recommend setting it above 460800).
Specify the bootloader ("Download Agent").
We load the memory allocation scheme of your smartphone (“Scatter-loading”) and then check the lines with the areas of the device’s flash memory that are subject to programming.
Click "Format FAT", where we select "Manual Fat Format". In "Begin address" and "Format Length" in hexadecimal format, you must specify the starting address (0x0), as well as the size of the smartphone's memory to be cleared. Be careful as it is possible to inadvertently delete the calibration data.
Click "OK", then press the power button of the device.
To start the firmware process, you must click the "Download" button.
After the update is completed, disconnect the phone from the USB cable and reboot it (several times if necessary).

As you can see, everything is quite simple.

Finally

Many users of phones on the Android OS sooner or later wonder about changing the firmware, as the original one becomes obsolete, which affects the overall performance of the phone. Along with this, interruptions in the operation of the system very often occur, which is especially true for Chinese phones. Nevertheless, for various reasons, not everyone wants to go to a service center, preferring to reflash their smartphone themselves. In this article, we have given many illustrative examples of this process. We think you were interested.

Many modern users are intimidated by the concept of "flashing" if it is mentioned in the context of mobile phones, so it would be useful to understand how to flash an Android phone. Most often, this is necessary in case the phone does not turn on or starts to fail very badly. Although some are simply not satisfied with their firmware due to design or other similar points.

In any case, we will consider the easiest way that even the most inexperienced users can perform. This method is suitable for all models of smartphones from Samsung, HTC, FLY and other modern manufacturers.

At the same time, the whole process will be described so that everyone can complete all its stages at home, without involving specialists.

What do we need

In addition to the mobile phone itself, this method provides for a program called ROM Manager. It is best to download it on Google Play.

The developer of this application is a team under the unusual name ClockworkMod. This team has long enjoyed great popularity and authority among users from various countries.

Their creation allows you to easily change the firmware, as well as perform a huge number of system manipulations.

The main ones among them are:

Backup;
System Restore;
Installing new firmware (what we need) and much more.

The main advantage of using the ROM Manager program to flash any phone, be it Samsung, HTC, FLY or something else, is the ability to roll back all changes.

This means that if there are any problems during installation or after it (for example, if the phone does not turn on), you simply do not like the new firmware for some reason, everything can be returned back.

Among other benefits of using the ROM Manager, the following are particularly important:

It is not difficult and everything can be done at home;
All operations are performed fairly quickly;
You don’t need to do anything through the computer, everything happens through the phone (unless you need to transfer the firmware to the phone through the computer, although there are other methods for this, such as Bluetooth or file sharing);
Reliability - thousands of users have already done a similar procedure.

We also need the new firmware itself. Many users today do not know where to find it. And the easiest way to do this is by phone.

In Google, you need to enter a query like “firmware for [phone model]”, that is, for example, “firmware for Samsung Galaxy J7”. All this is done very simply.

The problem is that there are a huge number of firmware on the Internet, but a lot of them, in the language of advanced users, are “broken”.

This means that after installation, the computer will not turn on, the user will not be able to install some programs, or other problems of various kinds will occur. Therefore, before downloading a particular firmware, use the following advice.

Advice: Read on the Internet what other users write about the version of the firmware that you are going to download.

To date, the positive opinion of people who have already installed something is the best guarantee of quality. And the manufacturer can write what he wants and all of this, of course, will only be good. Another tip will help you choose a good firmware.

Advice: Use the ROM Manager Premium program, which will make it difficult to find firmware for your phone model, and also show which ones are the most popular among other users. Also in the program window you can see the discussions of other users regarding a particular version of the firmware.

In any case, before performing all the actions described below on your phone, or rather, on a memory card (this is important!), There must be a zip archive with a new firmware.

So, let's move on to the firmware process itself.

Stages of flashing an Android phone

ROM Manager is already downloaded and installed on your phone.

Now you need to do the following:

Get root rights. If you do not know how to do this, the whole process will be described especially for you.
Open the ROM Manager program and install ClockWorkMod. It is a program that downloads any files.

Yes, Android has its own such program, but we need ClockWorkMod to work.

To do this, do the following:

In the upper part of the program window, in the section called "Recovery Mode", click the "Install ClockWorkMod" button (highlighted in Figure No. 1.a);
After that, you should click on your device in the drop-down list, the appearance of which is shown in Figure No. 1.b;

No. 1. The main menu of the ROM Manager program and the phone model selection window

Attention: Before installing ClockWorkMod, the phone must not be connected to the computer. In general, it is better to turn off all its means of communication, except for Wi-Fi, which will make it possible to download the necessary files.

We are waiting for the end of downloading and installing ClockWorkMod.

Now you need to backup your system. You will need it in case of incorrect installation of the new firmware or other problems with it.

To do this, do the following:

In the main menu, select the "Save current ROM" command (highlighted in Figure No. 2);
Specify the name of the archive in which the current firmware will be stored, that is, the system backup in the window;
Press the "OK" button in the same window;
We are waiting for the program to create a backup copy of the system and save it in an archive with a user-specified name.

No. 2. Creating a backup in ROM Manager

To proceed directly to installing a new firmware, in the ROM Manager program window, select the item "Install ROM from SD card", which is highlighted in Figure No. 3. After that, you will need to choose where the firmware you downloaded earlier is located, that is, the zip archive with it.

No. 3. Button "Install ROM from SD card"

After that, you will be prompted to perform some actions along with installing a new firmware. So you can delete all data, wipe the cache, and also make a backup of the existing system. We have already done the latter, so here you can only select the item related to the cache.

Tip (mandatory to follow!): After all the above steps, connect your phone to the charger. This is very important, because if the phone runs out of power during the installation of a new firmware, this can lead to irreversible consequences.

After that, you will have to wait. Depending on the model, this process can take up to two hours, although in most cases it takes no more than 45 minutes. This completes the flashing process.

The process of obtaining root rights

This process is performed differently on different versions of Android. But in most cases, it all comes down to installing one of the special programs that allow you to literally get these same root rights with the click of a button.

The list of these programs is as follows:

Framaroot;
UniversalAndRoot;
VISIONary+;
Gingerbreak;
z4root;
BaiduRoot;
Romaster S.U.;
Towelroot;
Root Dashi;
360 root.

Now you just need to find one of them on the Internet, most likely on Google Play, install and use. It is safe to say that you will be able to figure out how to use them.

For example, the Framaroot program window is shown in Figure 4. All you need to do is click on the "Install SuperSU" button.

No. 4. Framaroot window

System Restore

Above, we said that if there are any problems with the new firmware, you can roll back all the changes and return to the old version. This procedure is also done in the ROM Manager.

In the main menu of the program, click the "Backups" button (highlighted in Figure No. 5).

After that, the usual dialog for choosing the location of the system image will appear. After selecting the previously created image, you will be able to choose one of three options.

Accordingly, we will need to select an item called "Restore".

No. 5. Main menu of ROM Manager

After a few more tens of minutes, the system may return to the state it was in before installing the new firmware. As you can see, there is absolutely nothing complicated in this procedure.

However, in the entire firmware with the help of the ROM Manager program, there is also nothing complicated - almost everything is done in one or two clicks.

In the video below, you can clearly see how the process of installing another firmware using the ROM Manager program takes place. True, this video is in English, but the meaning of what is happening is easy to understand.

Samsung products are in great demand all over the world. One of the most important factors that allowed this South Korean corporation to achieve such heights is high quality at an affordable cost. Samsung smartphones and tablets, which are traditionally produced on Android, are especially successful.

Despite the high quality of this electronics, from time to time it can fail, and often this happens through the fault of the people themselves using them. How can this problem be solved? One of the best solutions can be a timely flashing of your favorite smartphone or tablet, which will eliminate many problems.

If you are interested, how to flash a samsung phone then this article is for you.

How to start flashing a Samsung phone?

Best to do flashing a samsung phone using a special program Odin, which is the best solution for many Android devices.

However, before proceeding directly to the process itself, it is necessary to perform certain preparatory work. The first step is to check the battery charge of your phone, which should be at least 80% so that the device does not turn off at the most inconvenient moment for this. ,

In addition to checking the charge of the phone, you should download the Odin program itself to your computer. It is important to note that for the normal operation of this program, it is necessary that the operating system on your computer be at least Windows XP.

You also need to download the firmware itself and also the ADB drivers, which are always available on specialized sites.

If you have completed all the preparatory work, then it's time to start flashing the device.

Installing the driver

In order for the special Odin program to be able to reflash your smartphone, you need to install special drivers for this. Everything is quite simple here, download the installer file and just run it (it's best to do this as an administrator).

Sometimes it happens that the computer already has drivers needed to flash an android device. In the event that their version is not the latest, it is best to uninstall them and install the latest version of them. ,

Downloading a smartphone in Downloading mode

To start flashing your smartphone using the Odin program,, you need to download it in Downloading mode. But before that, you should save all the information you need, because after flashing the android device will start up as new and will not contain any old data.

After you boot your smartphone in Downloading mode, you should connect it to your computer using a USB cable.

Launching Odin

Before starting the Odin program, you should once again make sure that all the preparatory work has been done correctly and that you have installed the latest drivers so that there are no problems in the future.

In order to avoid any unforeseen situations during the firmware itself through Odin, it is necessary to deal with the program itself as much as possible. It is not so difficult to do this, for this, just unpack the archive with the program to any place convenient for you on the hard drive of your computer. Then just run the Odin.exe file. after opening the program, you will see a large number of different settings and unfamiliar words. However, you should not worry about this, since in order to perform a flashing, you only need information regarding the available firmware.

We carry out the firmware of the Android device through Odin

If the firmware you downloaded for your smartphone consists of only one file, then everything is extremely simple here. In this case, click on the PDA button, after which in the window that appears, you must specify the path to the flashing file on the hard drive.

In the event that the firmware consists of 3 files, then you need to do the following: in the PDA line, select the file whose name contains the word CODE, in the PHONE line, specify the file whose name contains the word PHONE, and in the CSC line, select the file whose name contains is the word CSC.

After performing these steps, you need to make sure that the inscriptions Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time in the program interface should contain checkmarks in front of them. You should also pay attention to the fact that there is no check mark opposite the Re-Partition inscription. This is a very important point, because if Re-Partition is checked, then such a flashing can end fatally for your device, and it doesn’t matter if it’s a galaxy model or not, your smartphone will simply turn into a brick. That is why it is very important to pay attention to the Re-Partition item.

You may notice that the program interface contains a large number of other settings, however, they are needed for advanced firmware. Most often, they are used only by those who develop custom firmware versions for smartphones. That is why, if you just want to reflash your smartphone so that it works fine again, you should not pay attention to them.

After you make sure that all the checkboxes are checked, and there is no checkmark opposite the Re-Partition item, you can safely proceed with the flashing of your galaxy itself, for this you just need to click the Start button in the program interface.

Firmware started

After you press the Start key, the firmware will begin. It is very important not to press any buttons during this, and also not to disconnect the computer or smartphone from the computer. This is a very important point, as failure to follow these rules can damage your smartphone.

When the smartphone is flashed, it will reboot on its own, and it will boot into the setup mode. You can perform the necessary step-by-step settings (the phone manual is the best help in this case), after which the device will boot up normally and be able to function properly.

Outcome

We hope that now you know how to flash a Samsung phone and you will not have any problems with it.
,

Today we will talk with you about how to independently reflash an Android smartphone through a computer. The procedure is not easy and the firmware of each gadget has its own nuances that you will have to clarify on specialized forums. But in general terms, you will understand that with the right approach, you can restore the device at home, install third-party firmware on it, or update the stock to a new version.

Firmware smartphone on Android using a computer

To begin with, we will warn you that in this way you can “kill” your gadget. In the language of understanding people, turn it into a “brick”. In this case, you won’t be able to get off without going to the service center. It’s not worth it to take on the NoName firmware of gadgets from China at all, if you break it, they may not be restored in the service center.

Be that as it may, we live in the age of technology, the age of the Internet - the World Wide Web, where, if desired, you can learn literally everything: even the firmware of Android phones. Actually, what are you doing now. Well, let's get started....

Search and installation of software required for firmware

It's no secret that different device manufacturers need different drivers. Fortunately, they can also be downloaded from the Internet. For example, you have a smartphone from Samsung - drivers for its subsequent firmware can be found on the official website. There is also an alternative option without searching for drivers - just connect the phone to the computer, after which the operating system will independently select and download them (applies to owners of Windows 7 and newer versions of window operating systems).

The next task is to download the firmware itself. The most popular Russian-language resource with official and custom firmware is w3bsit3-dns.com. Go to the forum, look for your device and firmware for it there. Choose the most interesting for you and download to your computer.

Then you need to assign Superuser rights to the program, that is, give Root access. How to provide it, see the article we wrote earlier.

Now we return to the already familiar site w3bsit3-dns.com, or rather, to its forum and download the CWM-recovery file for your gadget (it is important that it is for your device, otherwise you risk turning it into a “brick”).

We write to the memory of the device a zip-archive with firmware and Recovery, downloaded earlier, or better - to an SD card.

We return to the installed Mobileuncle MTK Tools program again, run it and it will automatically find CWM-recovery on the smartphone, you will only need to confirm the update process by pressing the "OK" button.

Preparing for the firmware

Without a backup - nowhere! It will be useful to us in case of unsuccessful firmware to restore the device to working capacity. Go:

So, the backup is created. To restore it, go to the installed CWM recovery application, tap on the "Backups" item and select the newly created one there.

You should also save as a backup copy all data that can be erased during device firmware - contacts, photos, etc.:

To restore data from a backup, you should use the nearby "Restore" button - that is, "Restore". You will only need to specify the path to the previously created backup and confirm its installation. As you can see, absolutely nothing complicated.

Installing firmware on an Android smartphone

So, the new Recovery is installed, now you need to go into it. First, fully charge your device. Turn it off and, using the combination of the Power and Volume Up buttons, go into Recovery. Depending on the manufacturer of the device, the combination may differ.

Here we select "Wipe cache partition" and confirm our actions;
And now we turn to the most interesting - to install the operating system. Click on "Install from sdcard", then on "Choose zip from internal sdcard" and find the file with the firmware downloaded earlier;

We confirm our consent;

We wait for the installation process to complete, then reboot the device and wait for it to boot. Do not be afraid if the first boot takes longer than usual - it should be so.

What to do if the phone does not start after flashing

If the process of launching a smartphone has not progressed beyond the logo, it makes sense to restart it again. Didn't that help either? Then reflash again. Otherwise, we need to roll back to the standard firmware and restore the backup. You already know how to restore a backup, but how to roll back to a previously installed firmware version? There is only one answer - no way, it will have to be installed through a computer.

Consider the process using Samsung devices as an example:

If the method did not work, but it also happens, the road to the service center is paved for you. We warn you: the name of the programs and the driver for all programs are different, but in general the installation process is similar, so it will not be difficult to figure it out. We hope that everything worked out for you!

To flash a Samsung smartphone, you first need to find the latest firmware for your model. Sometimes this is not easy to do, because there are few reliable sources on the Internet, and you can turn a smartphone into a brick with one wrong byte in the firmware file. Site AndroGoo offers an easy way to find firmware for any Samsung smartphone model.

SamFirm - download a program for quick firmware search

For the program to work on your computer must be installed:

NET Framework 3.5 and Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable Package (x86). You can download it from here:Http: //www.microsoft.c...d/details.aspx?id=5582 .
Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package (x86). You can download it from here: https://www.microsoft....d/details.aspx?id=5555 .

Archive with the program: DOWNLOAD

How to find and download firmware for Samsung?

Unzip the downloaded archive with the program to some folder and run the program.
In field Model enter your model code (you can find it on the smartphone packaging, in the instructions or under the battery. For example, SM-G930F, etc.).
In field Region enter the one you need CSC region code, For example, BTU or some other.

What is a CSC region and how can I find it?

CSC code used in Samsung phones to determine the country where the phone was sold and the firmware language. To find out which firmware version you need, you should specify the code under the phone battery. It can also be found in the table below.

Check the box Auto, and press "Check Update".

When the program finds the firmware, check the boxes "Decrypt automatically"(for transcoding the firmware to the desired format), "Check CRC32"(to verify checksums) and press Download. Specify the path to download the firmware (it is possible to the desktop). Do not rush to turn off the program until it recodes the firmware into the required format and checks the checksums (the green bar in the program will pass 2 times and 2 inscriptions below will appear: Checking CRC32…Success: CRC match and Decrypting firmware…Decryption finished, indicating the completion of checksum verification and decoding operations).

What to do if it does not find the firmware on SamFirmware?

If the program could not find the firmware for your smartphone, then it is multi-file and you need to enter the values manually.
To do this, go to the site samsung-grimware in the block Model Selection looking for your model on the right. In the search results, look for the region we need and click on the button download.
In the program window, check the box Manual and enter in the fields PDA, CSC, phone information from the firmware page to which you switched above.
