How to enter flash mode
If not done so, go to the developer settings and enable OEM unlocking. Then reboot to Odin mode which can be done with two ways:
- 1. (Hard, but achievable) Power down the phone, then connect power cable, and hold power button with volume down simultaneously. If the turquoise menu appears, follow the steps to unlock the bootloder
- 2. (Easy) Deplete the battery (let it sit around 3 days without charging) and then do the same as in the first option.
Installation
Install pmbootstrap, then initialize it and select this device. Then type these two commands:
pmbootstrap install;
pmbootstrap export --odin
