How to Use Odin to Flash Stock Firmware on Samsung Galaxy Devices?

Several OEM Android devices like the Google Pixel series and Essential Phone have fastboot or bootloader modes, which can be used to flash the stock firmware. However, in the case of Samsung, the Odin Flash Tool can only communicate with your Galaxy device over USB, while it is booted into ‘Download Mode‘. Users can easily boot their phones into this mode by using a dedicated button combination or by using the “adb reboot download” command.

The best part about installing stock firmware using Odin is that it does not trip the KNOX counter. So, your device’s warranty will always stay intact and you will not lose official customer support from Samsung.

Below, we have linked to a comprehensive guide that will take you through the complete process in detail.

Though the tool is considered to be the best in its class, it has a flip side as well. The program completely writes the whole system. Due to which it can prove to be dangerous if any interruption occurs during the installation process. Under such circumstances, your device can be bricked. Reflashing the firmware using Odin can often fix this issue in most cases. So, always be sure of using the right files.

So this was our post to help you download all the versions of Odin Flash Tool, along with the instructions on how to install it and use it. If you face any problems using Odin or have any questions regarding its usage, feel free to ask us.

    Hi, this is a loaded question I know but I have never been good with technology nor did I ever have much interest in it. However, I obviously stumbled upon this entire scenario by reason. So, what I am wanting to know is What is the purpose for someone to have this? And dumb it down for me to understand, please? Like is it to help ping a phone or do an entire fake display or program or can you please, please explain to me please. It’s very very important.

      Hi Jordan. To answer this question, I have added a new section within the post, just below “What is Odin?” which will help you understand why and when you’d need to use the Odin tool.

      Hi. In that case, you can perform a flash via Odin (Using AP, CP, BL, and HOME_CSC) files OR you can perform a factory data reset via stock recovery.

      When your phone boots after doing this, you will be prompted to enter your previously set PIN/Password. But since you forgot that, you can use the alternate method (as shown on the screen) to use the Google account associated with your device. This will allow you to successfully boot into the OS.

      Hi Russ. Like I mentioned initially in this article, Odin was only leaked and so, there’s no “official” website for it.

      Now, over to your situation. Press and hold the Volume Down + Power button altogether until the screen turns off. Your phone should then be out of Download Mode.

      And for the Samsung Galaxy S9, it is advised to use Odin v3.13.1. You can try with the original version if it shows errors regarding SHA256 checksums, then you can use the Patched Odin v3.13.1.

    Hi Dhananjay, I am having an old mobile of Samsung and I believe it is of Galaxy J1 model. Its been more than 2 years when it showed as “ODIN MODE(MULTI CORE DOWNLOAD). When I have given this to the local Samsung customer service store, they said the mother board is gone and there is no replacement. But now, when i tried to search for the key words I got few help but they are not useful. I have worked on all the options like power button combos and the odin multi download…. it is not working yet. Could you help me with this one?

      Hi Yoge. First, of all, I am glad you contacted me regarding the matter. Also, I apologize for the utter delay, somehow your comment got past the moderation queue.

      So have you finally recovered your Galaxy J1 or not?
