Detailed Guide to Flashing Samsung i9103
For many novice users, it is driven by curiosity, a love for research, exploration, and tinkering! That’s right, you must have this spirit to learn! Everyone starts as a novice.Many flashing tutorials in the forum seem unclear and insufficiently detailed. Perhaps for those of us who are already familiar, it may seem understandable, but if we were to look at it from the perspective of when we were novices, it always feels too profound.
Below, I will write a flashing tutorial. Using methods that all novices can understand, start practicing your curiosity, love for research, exploration, and tinkering! Starting from the simplest method:
1.Samsung phoneFOTAupgrade method
What is FOTA? What are the benefits of FOTA? FOTA means: Firmware Over The Air;
It can “wirelessly” upgrade your device software, easy to operate, and users can do it themselves; no need to connect to a computer;Can be upgraded via 3G network and Wi-Fi network(Under 3G network conditions, additional data charges may occur);Allows users to update their devices to the latest version as soon as possible;Reduces software vulnerabilities on the device, making the device run more stably.
FOTA upgrade precautions:1. Currently, the models supported by FOTA upgrade are relatively few, please test yourself. 2. The phone has not been ROOTed, USB storage at least 100MB. 3. Please keep the phone battery at 50% before upgrading, do not remove the battery during the update process. 4. FOTA upgrade requires a data network, you can use WIFI or mobile data. However, for faster upgrades and to avoid high data costs, we generally recommend using WIFI for FOTA upgrades. 5.Please log in to your Samsung account. If you don’t have one, please register!
FOTA upgrade method: Go to settings – About phone – System update – Click update, the phone will connect to the server to check for available updates
If there is, a window will pop up automatically, click update to automatically update, and the phone will restart! OK
2.OfficialKies upgrade method
Kies is Samsung’s PC suite, and users can connect their phones and PCs through Kies software for phone upgrades and synchronization backups.Upgrade steps:1.Download the Samsung Kies software from the Samsung official website:http://www.samsung.com/cn/support/usefulsoftware/KIES/JSP2.After installing KIES on the computer, open it, and the phonein power-on stateconnect to the computer with a data cable, at this time, if your phone has available updates,KIES will automatically pop up a box, as shown below:
Read the upgrade-related matters, select that you have read, confirm whether to keep information, and then click “Start Upgrade”. The Kies software will automatically download and upgrade the firmware
The phone will automatically complete the upgrade and restart during the process, and after the upgrade is completed, it will prompt that the firmware upgrade is complete, click confirm.
3.Line flashing tutorial version:
Understanding the principle of line flashing:Commonly known as line flashing, it means connecting the phone to the computer with a data cable, using the official flashing tool provided to transfer the flashing package to the phone through the data cable. This is the official flashing method that must be used for the official flashing package, and since it uses the official flashing software and flashing package, this flashing method is relatively safe, as long as you follow the official flashing instructions completely during the flashing process, there will be no problem, and it will definitely succeed.Samsung phone flashing software:Odin3.v1.85Screenshot
Understanding the principle of the official flashing package:Generally speaking, the official flashing package usually comes in the form of a compressed package, such as:GT-I9103_TGY_1_20120928100942_940lpvu013.zip This kind of file with the .zip suffix needs to be unzipped first, and unzipping can be done using computer software likewinrar, or360 compression, orhao压… these software. After unzipping the complete official flashing package, you will generally see5 filesFor example:BOOTLOADER_CL1050639.tar.md5【This is a boot file that runs before the operating system kernel runs. It can initialize hardware devices, establish a memory space mapping, thus bringing the system’s software and hardware environment to a suitable state, so as to prepare the correct environment for the final call of the operating system kernel】CODE_I9103ZCLPD_CL1143597_REV00_user_low_ship.tar.md5【rom core content, the system, this compressed package includes the following filesboot.bin、sbl.bin、param.lfs、zImage、factoryfs.rfs、cache.rfs,odin flashing does is unpack and clone each file to the corresponding partition. Which file name corresponds to which partition is determined according to the information in thepit file, if this time thepit file is not flashed,odin will read the internalpit information of the machine. Somepda files have the suffixmd5, which is essentially still atar package.】GT-I9103-MULTI-CSC-OZHLPD.tar.md5【Carrier data information, usually also atar package, which containsdbdata.rfs and cache.rfs】MODEM_I9103ZCLQ3_REV_00_CL1174950.tar.md5【Baseband file, is responsible for the wireless communication section, mainly managing the phone signal, call function, network, and information】FLASH_N1_FLEX_EB2_APP_MDM_110615.pit【Partition mapping table.pit is actually not a file that is flashed to the phone, but a configuration file used by the Odin tool for flashing, which records the information of each partition of the phone. During flashing, Odin uses this configuration to restore the partition image of therom to the specified partition.】Okay, now that we understand the principles of the flashing package, let’s start the flashing!
First method: Full flashing package full flash methodFull flashing package full flash means selecting all files for flashingFirst, we download the official Samsung flashing tool:Odin3 v1.85【After unzipping, place the two files in the same folder】 and the Samsung phone computer driver program:SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_for_Mobile_Phones.exe(23.06MB)After installing the Samsung driver, runOdin3 v1.85After the phone is turned off, press and holdVolume Down+HOME+Power ButtonWhen the flashing interface appears, pressVolume Upto enter the flashing modeThen connect to the computer via data cable, when connecting for the first time, a prompt will pop up in the lower right corner of the computer indicating that the driver is being installed, once the driver installation is complete, you will find:
This indicates that the connection has been established.Next, select the corresponding file
NoteGuidance in the red box:PIT Corresponds to the Partition mapping table fileBOOTLOADER Corresponds to the BOOTLOADER boot filePDA Corresponds toCODErom core content, system filePHONE Corresponds toMODEMBaseband fileCSC Corresponds toCSC carrier data information fileAfter selecting, you can start flashing! Clickstart to begin
PASS completed. The phone will automatically restart! Completed
Second: Single flashPDA methodPDA file is the core part of the phone’s systemROM【In simple terms, it is the folder and files under the phone’s internalC disk root directory】, it is the entireAndriod system framework. ManyROM do not need to modify partitions, baseband, and other nonAndriod system frameworks, so it is enough to flash thePDA only. Okay! Let’s learn how to single flashPDA:Single flashPDA is actually very simple, just like full flash but does not require selectingPIT、B
OOTLOADER、PHONE、CSCOther operations are the sameNote: Single flashPDA also does not need to checkRe-partition【Guidance in the red box in the upper left corner】Okay! Clickstart to start, and it will be done!
4.Community card flashing methodCard flashing means usingrecovery【recovery mode】 to read the upgrade package from theSD card to replace the original system, the premise is that your phone must have flashed therecovery.recovery【recovery mode】 is similar to a computer’sghost installation system, its function is very powerful, in addition to the original machine’sreboot system now 【Reboot system】apply sdcard:update.zip 【Use SD card root directory update the system】-wipe data/factory reset 【Cleardata partition and restore factory settings】-wipe cache partition 【Clear cache partition】will also addinstall zip from sdcard 【Select files fromSDcard to update the system】choose zip from sdcard 【Select zip format upgrade package fromSD card】backup and restore【Backup and restore the system】and so on…As mentioned above, to use the card flashing method, the premise is that your phone must have flashed therecoveryFlashing therecovery method is very simple, we learned how to use the line flashing method to single flashPDA part above, let’s try it!First, you need to download aCMW recovery:This is atar file compressed package,no need to unzip!Single flashPDA part is fine:After flashing, the phone will automatically restart!After restarting, let’s see if it was successful, after the phone is turned off, press and holdPower Button+HOME key+Volume Up at the same time until the boot screen shows enteringrecovery mode, release your hand, see if you can successfully enter therecovery mode?
If you enter, it means success! We use the volume up and down keys to move the cursor to-wipe data/factory reset 【Clear data partition and restore factory settings】, selectyes option, wait for the clearing to complete-wipe cache partition 【Clear cache partition】, selectyes option, wait for the clearing to completeAfter double wiping, return to the main menuWe then move the cursor toinstall zip from sdcard 【Select files fromSDcard to update the system】 selectchoose zip from sdcard 【Select zip format upgrade package fromSD card】Then select the upgrade package file stored in theSD card, click theHOME key to confirm, select theyes option, and it will start…Wait for the upgrade to complete, return to the main menu, clickreboot system now 【Reboot system】, rebootOK!
