I am trying to flash firmware via odin. its get stuck at almost verge of completion.
The process shows is Meta-data/Fota.zip
First I tried using all four files BL, AP, CP, CSC
Then again I tried with only AP.

Just unplug it, hold power, home and vol down and youll be right back in download mode. Dont worry, the download screen will show a big exclamation mark and it wont say downloading as usual. But you can plug in your USB cable and Odin will show "added" and you can start over flashing again.
