Downloading the software:
First off you need to download the firmware you want and then download Multiloader V5.33 which is the program you're going to be using to flash your phone.

Make sure you remember where you've put these files as you'll need to browse to them when using multiloader.
Preparing your phone:
| I am assuming here that you've already installed Samsung PC Studio and it works fine with your supplied USB cable. NOTE: Flashing your phone will delete all your contacts calender settings ringtones etc. You probably want to back up all your files and contacts. I recommend syncing your contacts etc. with Samsung PC Studio and copying over your files on your phone to your memory card or PC (your memory card will not be touched). Once that's done remove any memory card you may have and then remove the SIM card. Put you battery back in. Your phone should be off at this point. Hold down the 'Volume down' key (The bottom rocker button on the left side of your phone) and the camera button and press the power on button. Your phone should start up into a weird screen with Downloader v.5.32 or something and some boxes. It's now ready to be flashed. |
Using Multiloader:
| Open multiloader. No options should be selected at this point (The middle section should be blank!): Then press the AMSS button on the left side and browse to the firmware files you want to flash (unzip/rar them as necessary). Go to the binary folder and then select amss_compressed. Do the same for Rsrc1 Rsrc2 and FSS selecting the appropriate files.. You should now be ready to flash. Connect your phone to your computer and then click download in multiloader. AT THIS POINT DO NOT TOUCH YOUR PHONE/DETATCH THE CABLE/SWITCH OFF YOUR COMPUTER. Your phone should have a status indicator with percentages and this should be reflected in multiloader. The process should tkae about 5 minutes though I'm not sure about that. Once it's done your phone will restart twice by itself. Once this is done it should start up as normal into the widgets page. It's now complete. Congratulations on flashing your phone. You can now replace your SIM and Memory card and set up your phone the way you like it. Example Picture: Note: RsRC2 is not selected in this picture (please make sure you do with yours)  |
