Once you extracted this file, you''ll find a .tar.md5 file extension to it.

C) Multiple files with Pit included - This is a full flashing method, this is only advisable and useful for reverting back to original firmware when previously installed unofficial ROM or to fix softbricked devices like unable to boot normally. (I am using this method in my shop to fix bricked devices. Be aware that hard bricked or such already dead boot jammed devices cannot be recovered by Odin, I'm using a JTAG force flashing with another tool) So, don't ever messed your device for its hard to recover it)

The same as the multiple file step above but this time you need to load the pit file.
Click the Pit button and load the Q1-20110914_16GB.pit then the PDA, MODEM and CSC files. If the bootloader file is also included load it on the BOOTLOADER button.

This time you need to check the Re-Partition, Auto Reboot and F.Reset Time checkboxes.

  1. I'm running rooted KingDroid 7.4. Need to get back to official stock without root and triangle so I can bring my device to service center. Does this method work? Need this, coz my front speaker doesn't work (can't hear the other side during the call - trick with attaching/removeing headphones worked only once, no more and I don't want to attach/remove headphones all the time I receive a call). So does this work?

  3. I tried this today, 4th March 2012, after a few driver issues with my laptop it seemed to have completed successfully. I am awaiting the full reboot to complete. The USSD codes however do not work on my phone :(. Will post a comment when the phone reboots and appears to be fully operational

  4. My phone never fully rebooted. It remained at the Samsung brand for a long time. I restarted, it does that fine, but it won't go pass the Samsung brand at start up. I have tried the flash again, same thing.

    What do you recommend?
