There is no possible way to flash it, you need Odin and windows system. I saw you can't install windows why so?
Because I tried Unetbootin and other programs on Kali Linux to install Windows 8.1 32 bit on USB but when I boot from USB the PC says that there is no system mounted on USB
You can try using Heimdall. It's a linux program for flashing samsung firmware but, if i'm not wrong, you have to separate the firmware in different files like one for the boot, one for the system ...

I tried It but It doesn't recognize my A300FU and It supports ".gz" Rom file but my Rom file, downloaded from Sammobile, isn't ".gz"

i'm not sure but i think you have to extract the files you need from the firmware using 7zip or any other program

Heimdall is well known, and probably only samsung flash tool for linux.
Don't know if it's outdated by now.

We can't, exe files are Windows only files. And we can't compile wine for ubuntu, so emulation is also out of the question.
ubuntu installation
Hootyhoo2 here! Man I sure hope I can download and run this properly...wanna install "ubuntu for linux" on my stratosphereso as I canget " chrome for Android" I'm running 2.3.5. W/ linux kernel. Any suggestions or alt upgrades would be greatly appreciated...self taught so far with all the smartphone hoopla!!!!
Does anyone have experience of running KDZ_FW_UPD.exe under Linux (e.g. using Wine)? What are the required libraries if this is indeed possible? Or is there another way to flash a KDZ file onto the GT540 using Linux?
This would be nice as I would'nt have to seek out a Windows PC every time I want to flash a KDZ
Use fastboot, that's I'm doing for some time now, works like a charm
Search for the binary or compile it yourself.
Regards,
No I wasn't talking a about fastboot, got that working ok under linux. Ok meant flashing KDZ files.

I think fishears have it in his linux machine , i saw a screenshot he posted about data2system method by flashing a KDZ , you should ask him. I would like to add a How-to about this to my LG GT540 Reference Thread
So it turns out this is impossible. Thanks to fishears for pointing out that this is a shortcoming of WINE at the moment as it is unable to communicate with direct-USB devices (it only works with USB->Serial devices).
Could anyone help me suggest the steps to flash kdz files only use terminal (I can extract kdz file but I don't know how to flash it into device)? Thanks you
Heimdall for Linux and mac - this is a program that is used on Linux that's similar to Odin for windows. It is capable of flashing extracted tar firmware AP,CP,CSC,and BL using download mode for Samsung devices.
This is not my program.
Also I am limited to Linux for heimdall so testing Mac I can not do but Instructions to install will also be posted using a link
I am testing how to flash the s7 for others limited to Linux or mac.
Linux install of Heimdall on Linux:
Go to the official website here: http://goo.gl/PQC1RN
Scroll down and click on Download(for Linux)
Click to download the Heimdall version for your Linux version (EX. ubuntu13.04-heimdall_1.4.0-0_amd64.deb will work with 14.04 & 13.04 64bit)
Click and download the frontend if you don't like to work inside the terminal
Open your Downloads folder and click to install the files you downloaded
Remember to open Heimdall as Admin(sudo) so it works correctly
Mac install:
http://rootmygalaxy.net/install-odin-jdoin3-for-mac-osx/
Steps to flashing frimware on linux:
1. open terminal and type sudo heimdall-frontend
2. look for flash tab
3. extract firmware zip to a folder then create 4 more folders named AP,BL,CP,and CSC
4. Rename AP,BL,CP,CSC by removing the .md5 part of the file name leaving only the .tar at the end
5. Extract each tar to its specific folder
6. Under the flash tab look for pit file and click browse, goto CSC folder and click the pit file
7. Now look for add and from the list under partition details choose which file to add then click browse under it should have the file name you are looking for under partition details if unsure what to put, go through each folder you made and keep adding each file
8. then click start
This is capable of flashing the firmware , as in the pictures it shows it works and fails, i am thinking because i am flashing all at once instead of each folder separate, or in the wrong order
there are forums on xda on how to use heimdall more extensivly but im just doing this for the s7 so productive comments are welcomed
Also this is being tested on a sprint version of the s7 g930p that has been flashed to g930u firmware, in the pictures im flashing a firmware i already have installed just incase i mess up
Capable of flashing everything but system.img

Hi,
I installed Phoenix OS straight to my laptop, no dual boots. Is there a way to root?
Thanks in advance.
Found a way by using RMXtools v1.6 by upack SFS and repack SFS with the rooted img.
Thanks

Boot into another OS from a flashdrive (Like Linux or maybe even Windows) and replace the Phoenix OS system.img with one of mine. If you have system.sfs and no system.img, delete your current system.sfs and proceed placing the system.img from this post (assuming you have Phoenix OS v2.2.0)
HOW!!!

The above link is now broken.
How does one get the jasminetool for Windows?
Thanks.
