Download the latest Odin make sure you have Samsung drivers installed. Open Odin put your phone in download mode and plug it in you'll see added in the bigger box on the left place the corresponding files in their respective slots CSC BL AP and CP then select start and wait. It'll go through the flashing process and you'll pass in green in the upper left hand box and it'll reboot and you'll be back to stock

[Q] s5360 S5360DDMD1_S5360ODDMD1_INU.zip

2nd file SS_DL.dll
so my question how I update firmware through odin ...
caused don't have .. pit file boot loader csc etc ..
Need ur help/
ty .
never flash the boot loader or pit file through odin unless it is actually needed (most the time it isnt) - if you do it wrong your phone will be dead
all you need is phone modem and csc
firmware from sammobile must be split into phone modem and csc in order to flash it via odin as galaxy y doesnt support single file flashing
you have two choice
1 - goto my firmware thread as iv already done ddmd1
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2568853
2- split firmware yourself using my guide

[Help] Using odin and the pit files for changing country firmware.

I was trying to change my csc on the canadian s7 edge to INS.
Odin gave me errors while installing and my phone shows Secure Download Failed : PIT .
So i want to ask if i can do it woth adding the pit file? And what pit file do i need to download. Is it XAC or INS? From where to download the required pit?
Or workaround would work that can i install only csc file from INS firmware and the rest of the files from XAC firmware?
Please guide me with that.

Yes you have to flash the HomeCSC because that's what I did. Or else you to wait until Samsung release Oreo for your country.

SM-G935F Firmware for United States

Hello, I purchase a SM-G935F from a pawnshop today that was flashed with a custom ROM however it does not boot. The phone goes into download mode just fine and want to flash stock firmware but cannot find the USA version. The box came the phone and appears to be a USA version, the UPC code on the box is 8806088275123 and I check the IMEI on a website service and it came back with this model number SM-G935FZKLTTT and says it was sold in the USA. Any help from members would be greatly appreciated, thank you in advance for your help.

Thank you my friend, trying now.
I forgot to tell you that factory reset is required when switching from custom rom to stock rom so make sure you flash the non home CSC file and not the home_csc file.

Yes, it is in the download. When you download Samsung firmware from Sammobile or Updato website they come in a zipped file. You'll need to extract the zipped folder which will give you multiple files labelled AP, BL, CP, CSC and lastly HOME_CSC.
This is an example of what the files look like when the files are extracted from the downloaded firmware zip file:
http://prntscr.com/k07am0
The non_home csc file is used to tell the phone to wipe the user data on the phone when flashed, the home CSC is used if you don't want to wipe the user data on the phone when flashing firmware.

Right now the phone will not boot, it shows the title of the phone but then just loops back to a black screen.

Hello again Benjamen50, it failed on the first try, do I need to check re-partition? or Nand Erase? What about a Pit file? sorry to keep bothering you but I appreciate your help.

If you are flashing Oreo firmware which is 8.0 you need to use Odin 3.13 or newer as the older Odin software does not support flashing Oreo firmware.
The only buttons you need to click are BL, AP, CP, CSC then start and nothing else.
The default check boxes under options tab will be auto reboot and f reset time. Others should be left untouched and not checked.
You'll need to reboot download mode again which can be done by holding the download mode keys until you get that blue screen again or that it says that something ran into a problem with the blue screen which allows flashing as well.

Hello again, well I thought it worked because I got a PASS in Odin however, when the phone boots, I get a Black screen saying Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge then it goes to a blue screen with the android logo and it says erasing at the bottom for a few seconds then the screen goes black. The phone still goes into download mode however, it will not go into recover mode. Before flashing this I could get into recovery mode but would see a custom page with loading and rebooting options. Am I missing the stock boot loader? So sorry to keep bothering you about this.

You cant just simply extract a rom zip you need tools to do it thats why you are getting errors when extracting.
Did you go into developer options and enable OEM unlock and usb debugging??

Do what I said in my last post. Check the ap BL CSC checkboxes in Odin and choose the file from sammobile to flash
