The files made available here are extracted from the official Samsung Firmware made available from SamMobile website, it will save you from downloading in access of 2GB of data with average download speed of 15KB.

Mainly it will be firmware specified for the EU market, as I am located here and will be using these firmwares, if you want your specific region included, I would appreciate if you would make sure to make the files available as they become updated for your region, since I don't intend to waste time on something I am not going to be using.

Since I intend not to delete any of the files, it is also essentially a resource with all the different Modem and Boot Loader versions released.

User Guide:

Extract latest version of Odin to your computer.

Install Samsung Mobile Phone Drivers for Odin to find your device.

Boot your phone into download mode, by pressing [Volume down] + [Home] + [Power]

- Once you reach the Download mode warning screen, press [Volume Up] to continue.

Open Odin

[1]Connect phone and wait until you get a blue sign in Odin

[2]Place the desired BL file in the [BL] slot.

[3]Place the desired CP file in the [CP] slot.

[4] Go to the Options section and make sure Auto Reboot, Re-Partition and F. reset time are unmarked.

[5]Push [Start]

Once odin reports "Success..." message in the Message box, boot your phone into download mode once again and repeat step 1 - 5 once more.

Some have complained that you shouldn't flash BL and CP without flashing appropriate CSC file, how ever I have never had any issues with only flashing BL and CP.

File versioning:

Some of you might be unaware of how the Samsung versioning of the Boot Loader and Modem is layed out, I will try to give an accurate description of what is what in the versioning.

The filename displays the version as G930FXXU1APDU, the layout of the versioning is as follows:

G930F - Identity of the phone supported

- Unbranded supplier branded

[*]P - Year of version (here 2016)

[*]D - Month of version (here 4.th [April])
