Take note of the location for these files, as you'll need to select them later.Your PC needs the necessary drivers to interface with your Samsung phone.If you are lucky enough to have a recent Samsung flagship, you can download the desired firmware from the Samsung Firmware Science website.Next, right-click on the Odin firmware ZIP file and choose "Extract all."

The Odin software only works with Windows, so make sure to have a PC handy. Extract the ZIP file for the latest version and run the EXE file inside of it to launch Odin.Click on the 'CP' button, choose the CP file inside your extracted firmware folder.
