[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] karanmirchandani96:
Fir download the file then

Note: Before I proceed with this part, Samsung has made it VERY EASY for new users to flash compared to the older ones, Unlike the previous version's that require you to flash it twice or such, or separate files, Their newer releases will always be in this format. With one PDA.md5 file. Unfortunately I cannot keep updating this thread with every region as the flashing methods are exactly the same as follows.

1. Firstly, Download the required firmware from here

2. Run Odin3 v3.04 at the bottom of the page.

3. Set your phone to download mode : Press Volume down + OK first, then hold Power button.

4. Connect your phone, you should see Odin shows your phone is Added with COM number.

5. Extract the contents from the zip, You should have a .dll and a 200-300 MB PDA file.

6. At this point you should see Re-Partition, Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time unchecked.

7. Click PDA button and select the only PDA file in the zip folder (Here you should not touch any of the Re-Partition/F.Reset options as the newer Odin automatically selects it for you, how conveinient!)

8. Click Start button to flash these files to phone.

9. Do not touch anything till you see PASS on the program window.

10. Once you have flashed, after the phone started up, press *#1234# and check your PDA,Phone and CSC, everything should be there. (There should not be any "Unavailable")

11. Factory reset and enjoy

Note: XXKPQ can only be flashed with help from it's supporting predecessor XXKPE like the XXKPN/XXKPH/XXKPM series, So make sure you have XXKPE downloaded. User flashing version varies with this, but this is my successful 100% assured boot.

2. Factory reset phone using manual code. (*2767*3855#)

3. Get into recovery mode and wipe all.

4. Now flash the new ROM as usual (latona and then the remaining 4 files.) Be sure not to make any lame errors here.

5. Factory reset again using manual code.

6. Now check to see if the power button functions and the phone reboots when you ask so. (It should work.)

7. Check camera. If you have a black screen, its okay.

8. Factory reset again using manual code.

9. Redo flash procedure again.

10. Factory reset again.

11. Check power button issue and camera. Both should be totally fine.

12. Press power button to lock and leave device for 10 mins. Now, press power button to check if the device wakes up as normal. It should. If you want to avoid the device being woken up by calls or texts or other notifications, just put it into flight mode and turn off Wi-Fi.

13. Root using SuperOneClick. It will show up Kernel Panic error in the end, but its no problem.

14. Just pull battery after that and restart phone. You should see SuperUser installed and working. Upgrade Busybox to 1.18.4 by Stericson.

15. Now install TB and go about your restoring business. DO NOT restore any system apps. Just restore User Apps and data.
