It must be kept in mind that this tutorial is only for Samsung Galaxy Note, model number GT-N7000. In addition, the users must proceed at their own risk. IBTimes cannot be held responsible for anything that goes wrong.

Step 1: Download Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean (N7000ZSLM5) for Samsung Galaxy Note (GT-N7000) and extract the zip file.

Step 2: Download Odin v1.85 and extract the file.

Step 3: Power off Galaxy Note and put it on the Download Mode. To do this, press and hold the Volume Down and Home buttons while pressing the Power button until the Samsung Galaxy logo appears on the screen.

Step 4: Run Odin as an Administrator.

Step 5: Connect Galaxy Note to your computer via the USB cable while in Download mode. If the device is connected properly, one of the ID:COM boxes will turn yellow with the COM port number.

Step 6: Select the following files from extracted N7000ZSLM5 firmware folder:

- Click on PDA and select the .tar file with CODE in its name

- Click on Phone and select file with MODEM in its name (Ignore this step if there is no such file)

- Click on CSC and select file with CSC in its name (Ignore this step if there is no such file)

- Click on PIT and select the .pit file. Use this file only if you get it while extracting the zip file mentioned in step 1 or else just ignore it

(Note ? In case the extracted zip files don?t have any modem, CSC or pit file, it means that you don?t require them. It?s the file with .tar.md5 extension that is a must have and should be flashed through PDA section)

Step 7: In the Odin, ensure that Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time checkboxes are selected. If you are using a .pit file, ensure that re-partition checkbox is selected.

Step 8: Click on the Start button in Odin to begin the installation process.

Step 9: Once flashing is done, you will see a PASS message with a green background in the left-most box at the top of the Odin. The device will now restart on its own. After you get the Samsung logo on the home screen, unplug the device from the computer.
