It can be used on any platform as it is based on Java. It requires Java 8 or the latest runtime environment installed on your computer.

Yes, that's normal. Remember, it's not the original Odin but a clone based on Heimdall.It's running fine, but F.Reset, Nand Erase, and some other buttons are grayed out. Is that normal in this Linux/Java version?

You'll need a Windows PC though. I haven't tried it with WINE.
SUCCESS!!!!!!!!Hey,
super thank you!
I do not have a WinPC - I am using vbox with win. So far it looks very promising. Frija has downloaded the firmware and now Odin has to do his magic;-)

Hi,
there is just one thing to say from my side - THANK YOU!!!
Before using your setup I have spent one half day to find out that the MAC version is difficult to install (failed for me) and the Linux version also required another half day (failed again because of dependencies). Finally I found your howto and it was working out of the box. No issues direct connect with a broken Galaxy S8.
BUT can anyone help where I can find the Firmware for a Samsung Galaxy S8 France?
I checked many pages but usually I have to open an account and in the best case I can download a zip file with some exe files - of course, which I do not open.
Any link/idea where to download this firmware?
BR
SUCCESS!!!!!!!!
UPDATE - SUCCESS!!!!
my S8 is alive ;-) Thank you to everybody who participated in these projects for their work!
If it seems to be a bad file, re-download it. If that failure should occur again, ask the maintainer of the Rom.ow to flash stock rom with JODIN3?
I'm getting errors
"bad file"
when trying to flash the stock .md5 firmware
Never used it myself, so no idea.Hi by trying jodin I get " corrupt PIT file" although PIT seems to be o.k (checked by extracting as well as reading from shell). Are there any ways to solve that?

Just general tech speak: if it doesn't work, verify that every element is functioning correctly.ooops- may I ask you why you're answering here in this thread? Your post surprised me indeed.

Thanks I am new to this and not a developer. I have downloaded Jodin3 files but how do I install please? Thanks Hugo
