The firmware u are using is just fine I had used the same and for more then a month and incase if u want a pit file u check my signature the 2 nd link is having a pit file make sure u download for ur i9500 only using other version pit file is dangerous
Flash pit file only along with the firmware u have
U also need to check re partition if ur flashing pit file also
However if u are not using pit file do not check re partition

HELP!, Is it possible to install jellyblast from ODIN?

HI ALL. in need of some help here i have installed the latest jellyblast and older jellyblast ROMS and installed perfectly it looks grate it feels grate and I love it BUT! i was not able to make calls send text messages or even brows the net and i have been wondering if its possible to Flash this ROM from ODIN ? to see if that would make a difference i have searched everywhere and cant seem to find such a ROM that exists to use with ODIN apart from original stock ROMS. please help !! Thanks any help is much appreciated Thanks.
NO....
Its not possible to flash custom roms via ODIN. Only stock roms are flashed through ODIN. The rest are done through either stock or CWM Recovery .
We can flash custom roms using odin too. Like the repencis!!

Yeah u can convert it to odin pack using splitfus2 tool by docky73

Your problem is not going to be solved if you flash custom rom from Odin . So stop doing that..
Flash latest firmware for your region from doky73 thread... search for it in dev section...
then install it in Odin.. then install custom rooms.. your problem should be solved..

[Q] Phone got locked....

hi guys, my galaxy y just got locked due to too many pattern lock attempts. Now I know how to flash firmware through Odin but the instruction says I have to know the firmware version of my phone before hand. The instruction asks me to check my firmware version by pressing *#*#1234#*#*
but all I could type on my phone is emergency number and that aint it. So could you guys please tell me how to check my phones firmware number....I think I can do the rest from there.
Thanks.

Yep! Format ur phone via recovery. Just goto recovery & select & confirm "wipe data/factory reset". It will not ask for pattern.
In future also, u may do this instead of updating whole firmware.

If you like to use Kies instead of Odin then you can disconnect your USB cable (phone) and go to Tools>Firmware Upgrade and Initialization and follow the instructions. You'll need to enter model number (case sensitive) like GT-I9500 and your mobile's serial number (from Settings>About Device).

Just let it be. When you open ODIN then it will have only 2 ticks. Dont tick more then that. Then select PDA (i.e. .tar) file & Press Start. Don't unplug the device until you get clear Ext button.
Note: Do check whether your Mobile has been detected by ODIN (A Green column will be highlighted in left upper corner).

No, this is actually a fail-safe way to upgrade your firmware in case the automatic Kies updater fails. You'll get to a step where you'll choose to factory reset or not, and you can always back up and restore data from Kies (you can back up before the whole upgrade process).
Odin is good, though. Basically the same thing. If you flash official ROM then your phone status will stay "Official" but the flash counter may increase. Kies method is official and will not threaten your warranty.

Yes correct it's a big file as lots of bloatware by Samsung and the OTA I is 343 mb
I would still suggest that download install and keep it even after flashing it I personally never trust KIES a stupid time waste waitng for it to complete
And ya even if u try doing thru KIES it myte take abt 3 hours as my friend took more then 4 hours having 1 mbps speed
And ya this won't increase a binary counter

Yes correct it's a big file as lots of bloatware by Samsung and the OTA I is 343 mb
I would still suggest that download install and keep it even after flashing it I personally never trust KIES a stupid time waste waitng for it to complete
And ya even if u try doing thru KIES it myte take abt 3 hours as my friend took more then 4 hours having 1 mbps speed
And ya this won't increase a binary counter

Thanks very much mate! For your valuable information the kies is very bad... it tooks me 1.5 hour per season. .. I tried 2 times to upgrade my s4 but still not successful. Hmmm
I will definitely try download and flash it using ODIN. Sorry if I'm writing too much because I am absolutely noob to Samsung device.
One more thing? Its that the phone recovery in the kies are reliable? In case of brick or something how can I revive it.
Thank in advance

Just let it be. When you open ODIN then it will have only 2 ticks. Dont tick more then that. Then select PDA (i.e. .tar) file & Press Start. Don't unplug the device until you get clear Ext button.
Note: Do check whether your Mobile has been detected by ODIN (A Green column will be highlighted in left upper corner).

Just Flash modem by completely power off . n then going into download mode and flashing XXUEMKE GSM and LTE modems via Odin.
NOTE: you must be on XXUEMKE Firmware.
1. Flash this GSM modem 1st.
power off and go to download mode again. uncheck automatic reboot.

2. Flash Wifi Fix modem

If you want to flash a modem via ODiN you have to power off the phone completely and boot into download mode!! Power+Volume down, and
Using advanced/extended reboot menus or any other way to boot the phone directly from system to download mode will always end up in a failed flashing process - the modem will not be flashed!
!!! Always power off the phone before !!!

I know you r in panic but you have to give us more information...
What version of odin do you use?
What is the name of the file which you wanted to flash and how you did it?
What was the error?
till that you can download a whole stock firmware from sammobile for your country or try custom roms, so if your firmware is broken you can reflash it again...
