Sorry i know only in Russian site . This is a translation from there .
In the Odin window, click on the <AP> and after the review, or select the .tar file .tar.md5 your firmware.
In the tab <Pit> program browse to the PIT-file.
In the tab <Options> program, make sure the check mark placed correctly:
- Items Auto Reboot, F. Reset Time and Re-Partition marked;
- Other items are not marked.
Press <Start>. Process starts flashing.
Do not disconnect the device from the computer during this process!
Firmware usually takes several minutes.
After flashing the device restarts.
After rebooting, disconnect the device from the computer.
Done!

Do it again and follow the instructions .
- Make sure your device is in USB debugging mode: Settings -> Applications -> Development -> USB debugging
- Reboot your device into download mode: Turn the device off, then power it on again by pressing and holding VolumeDown + Home + Power simultaneously. You will know when you are in download mode, it is really obvious
- Start ODIN
- Connect the device to your computer using USB
- Wait a few seconds, the ODIN screen should show you that a device is now connected
- Make sure that in ODIN NOTHING is checked, except the "Auto reboot" and "F. Reset Time" checkboxes. Press the "PDA" button, and select the "XWKDD_insecure.tar" file.
- Press "Start". ODIN you should now be flashing the kernel, and the device should reboot.
- Wait until the device is rebooted, and while still being connected over USB, start SuperOneClick, and press ROOT.
- Reboot the device
- Done !

Thanks for the quick reply,
thats the same file i flashed. I re-downloaded the file from the link you posted and flashed again in Odin. Same result I can confirm the phone is in usb de-bug, the phone was turned off and started in the download mode (black screen) I got pass ok in Odin. The phone restarted afterwards but i get the same. When the program gets to this stage it locks up and has to be ended by task manager. Im running windows 7 x64 pc with i7850 processor ddr3 ram..
on the tut the file is called XWKDD_insecure.tar inside the rar file on the post its called zimage with no extension, i had to manually add the .tar to get odin to view it.

Any suggestions?

Why did you extract a tar file to make a tar file the instructions are to Flash XWKDD insecure .tar . as PDA through Odin
Long guide (for beginners)
- Download the attached ODIN file and extract the .zip file
- Download the attached XWKDD, but do NOT extract the .tar file

Hey guys , I rooted my SGS2 with XWKDD_insecure.tar and superoneclick.
Everthing worked fine.
But after a while I found out, that I couldn´t make any videos with the device´s camera. All new recorded vids couldn´t be played. Message "unrecognised file type".
So, I decided to get some other ROM. I wanded to flash the litening 2.0 Rom and flashed it with odin.
But no flash changed my device. Yesterday I had thousands of konversations with experts from a german android forum. noone could held me.
Every odin flash seemed to finish correctly with PASS. But after reboot, my device always has the same state, the same kernel version, all installed apps after my rooting were gone, messages, images... all were gone, except these I had on my device before the rooting I did.
If I install e.g. CWM Manager and select the action "boot into recovery mode", I only can see the Options "reboot now", "install update from sd", "wipe data" and "wipe partition".
All data saved by my device, doesn´t stay on it, after i rebooted it.
It looks like after every boot, my device loads a special recovery point, like system recovery on e.g. Win XP.
Anybody an idea?
Nobody here who can help me with this problem? ...
Hello Humphrey,
when you boot into recovery, you can see ' update.zip' , usually that is cwm. Rom manager installs update-zip before you can use rom manager. Install update.zip via rom manager just incase that update-zip is not cwm, unless you know it is. When you install update-zip, via recovery and it comes back as unable to verify zip, then you are not rooted.
The cwm will allow you to format the caches and system, delvik and battery and then allow you to install a complete rom with a rooted kernel.To be quite honest, Oden could brick your phone because you are using 2 hardwares, computer and phone. I have found it easier to download a zipped rom to your sd card and use cwm to flash it. Remember to format everything I said but not usb or sd. I have found Designgears Cognition 1.13 rom, not 1.15, to be ideal. I also use Zeam desktop, which I find ideal. Cognition is already rooted. Rom manager has glitches, so I don't use it to reboot into recovery or anything else but to look at roms, which I don't download via rommanger. Also, I'm fed-up with downloading stock roms and then having to find a rooted rom and using Odin.
I hope you find this useful.

Hey Users,
Heres a guide for upgrading to 2.3.6 form any firmware..This guide is ONLY for SGS GT-I9000..
This guide can also be used if your phone has a boot loop and you cannot access CWM Recovery..(Provided your Phone Boots atleast to "Galaxy S GT-I9000" & Download mode)
Note:
1.Phone must have atleast 60% Battery
2.Take Backup of all your phone data like contacts,etc. as this process will factory reset your phone
--Plus take imp data from your Internal SD Card(for safety)
Take backups by using 3rd party apps like Astro for Apps,SMS Backup & Restore for SMS,ETC.
3.Enable USB Debugging (IMPORTANT)
--Goto Settings->Application->Development->Turn On USB Debugging
4.If your phone is being connected to the PC for the first time (in Download mode), then make sure that it installs all the drivers
Downloads:
1.Android 2.3.6 Value Pack from here(password: samfirmware.com)
2.Root File from here or here
3.USB Drivers form here(This Is Optional if it is already installed by your phone, else you need to download it and install it)
4.PIT file form here
Steps:
To Upgrade:
Once the download is complete, extract the files in one place
1.Run Odin3 and add the files as follows:
--PIT: Put the PIT File,
--PDA: Put the Code File,
--Phone: Put the Modem File,
--CSC: Put the CSC File,
--(IMAGE ATTACHED BELOW :1)--
2.Put your SGS to download mode. Do so by 3-Button Combo..
--Volume Down+Home (Center) Button+Power Button
Press and hold it till you see "Download" (Attached Image :3)
And then connect it to your system for odin to recognise it, make sure there is the a yellow box in "ID:COM" (Shown in Image :1)
If its not recognising make sure the drivers are installed..If the are then try other versions of odin3(Also attached with 2.3.6 File)..
3.Hit the start button and wait for some time..
Remember IF there is no progress for 5 mins or so, disconnect your phone and try it again..and also use different odin versions (Also attached with 2.3.6 File)
The phone will automatically reboot..The first reboot make take 5~10 minutes..
To Root:
1.Run Odin from the downloaded file and add only 1 file
--PDA:Put the CF-Root file that you just downloaded
--(Image Attached :2)--
2.Attached the phone in Download mode (As Mentioned Earlier)
--wait for it to be recognised by odin..
3.Hit the start button and wait for a few seconds
The phone will automatically reboot..After reboot check if Superuser application is there with other 2 new applications on your phone (As a System file i.e; you cannot delete this application)
(This checks if your phone is rooted or not)
Enjoy
Edit:I have requested the moderator..and i apologize for the same..
Please move it to general section.

Thanks very much for this guide, it was quite clear cut and helpful. Only things I mention incase anyone else has similar issues; getting the installer for the Samsung drivers to work on W8 took many clicks and admin access and I had to track down Odin 1.7 for it to work.
Samsung Galaxy S GT-I9000 2.2 -> 2.3.6

Your guide helped me . And the phone is much faster and smoother with this value pack. Also I got more free RAM .
Hi guys! This is a noob-proof guide on how to flash stock samsung firmware on your i9300. Whether you have bricked it or just want the stock firmware back. Here's how to do it (detailed explaination)
WARNING! : This is only for the GT i9300 (international version) , Check your device before proceeding. Also you might lose all your data. So backup! i am not responsible if you brick your phone(although very unlikely) by not following the guide properly
Also you will lose your custom recovery, Custom ROM and will not longer have root
Ok lets begin!
1. Make sure you have the samsung drivers installed on your pc (http://bit.ly/SDaIIE)
2. Your device should have at least 80% battery left
3. Enable USB Debugging by going to Settings>Developer Options>Tick the Usb debugging tick box!
Files needed :
1. Android 4.1.2 I9300XXEMA1 for Galaxy S3 I9300 - http://bit.ly/10vkxdj
2. Odin 3.07 - http://bit.ly/16aRzF4
Extract The firmware Zip file until you get a file with a .tar extension and some other files. Do not extract furthur
Extract odin zip file till you get Odin3 v3.07.exe
Now here comes the actual flashing part
1. Power off your smartphone. Wait 5-6 seconds for vibration to confirm complete switch off.
2. Now, get into Download Mode by pressing and holding Volume Down, Home and Power button simultaneously until Samsung Galaxy logo appears in phone screen. Wait few seconds and your phone will be in download mode.
3.Open odin as administrator and connect your s3 to your computer with usb cable
4. You will get a message "Added" in the message box in odin and You should also see COM port with a number in Yellow if you successfully added your device.
if you don't get this , try another usb port.. if it still doesn't come , reinstall drivers.
5. Select these files from I9300XXEMA1 folder in Odin at respective buttons:
Click the PDA Button, and select the .tar.md5 file here with *code* appearing in its name
Click the Phone Button, and select file with *modem* in its name (leave if there is no such file)
Click the CSC Button, and select file with *csc* in its name (leave if there is no such file)
Click the PIT Button, and select the .pit file. Use only if you got it while extracting , otherwise ignore it.
6. make sure Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time checkboxes are selected. Also, make sure that Re-Partition checkbox is selected, only if you are using a .pit file
7. Double check everything above and hit start!
8. once flashing is complete the phone will reboot automatically and soon you will see a PASS message with green background in the left-most box at the very top of the Odin. You can then unplug the USB cable to disconnect your device from computer.
congratz , you have just restored your i9300!
If this has helped you make sure to hit the thanks button!
what have you developed?
We already know Odin, and this doesn't UNBRICK anything

Helpful post to some,,,,,however the unbrick part is misleading as all this does is flash a stock ROM.
Only soft brick... like any other Samsung device.
Reported not development plus we have all this information already posted .
OP is splattering this post all over the forum .

I was supposed to unpack the tarfile from the zip, but since my computer decided to not recognize the zip and using the rar icon I thought it was the tar itself and flashed it only to realise my mistake as Odin said the flash failed. As of right now, every time I start my device, it says "Firmware upgrade encountered and issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again." and shows a picture that looks like *Phone**Triangle**Computer*.
Kies emergency recovery does not recognize the device.
Trying to start the phone in recovery mode takes me to the *Phone**Triangle**Computer*.
Download mode > Flashing a stock rom = fail (Yes, it's unpacked this time)
Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.
P.S. Now before anyone bothers to help me out here.. I know.. I'm an idiot, and anyone who takes his or her time to help out here is my hero for the rest of my life <3 D.S.

Alright, so I got a lot further this time.
I figured out how to get into Download mode again, suddenly I need to press and hold the combo a little while longer than I did before, or it will go to *phone**triangle**computer*.
I got the official firmware into PDA in Odin 3.07 this time around and connected my phone to the computer after I loaded PDA.
I then pressed start and VOILA!!! Thanks fellas!

Bott in recovery, then wipe cach and dalvik, this will help if you're still on boot screen, and also for bottloop.
About USB 3.0. I always connect my devices via USB 3.0, it doesn't matter, the only thing is to have Intel drivers (Win 7) and not Microsoft (Win 8).
Reinstall KIES/drivers on your computer then connect your devices.
I think it should be OK
Hallelujah !

if you use PDA file you don't need pit file
and please note,when flashing PDA file using ODIN check F.reset time and auto-reboot option only
also, before flash using ODIN make sure ODIN recognize your device ( the box will turn to blue ) then you can press start to start the process
