You can download and install stock firmware on your Samsung Galaxy phone if you’re facing problems with OTA updates or if your device is stuck in a bootloop. Flashing Samsung stock firmware involves a slightly different procedure than flashing Google Pixel and other Android phones and requires the use of a computer.
To install Samsung firmware, you will need to extract the downloaded firmware and flash the resulting AP, BL, CP, CSC, and Home_CSC files to their respective slots using a tool like Odin, which requires a Windows PC. However, things have changed now.
Eros Flash Tool lets you install stock Samsung firmware on your Galaxy phone without using a PC or the Odin tool, but you will need a secondary Android phone. Additionally, you don’t need to extract the firmware, as the Eros Flash Tool Android app handles the entire process.
