Try this step by step and it should work!
Requirements
A Samsung Galaxy S2 GT-I9100
A Windows PC
Your phone’s USB cable
7-Zip, WinRAR, or any other programs that can extract archive files
Handset USB drivers installed on the PC. You may install the drivers by installing Samsung Kies.
Enable USB Debugging on your handset.
Disable antivirus, firewall, and other security software. Also disable Samsung Kies and other software that accesses
your phone. Such software can interfere with the procedure in this guide.
Download the following files to your computer:
Android 4.0.4 ICS firmware build XXLQ5 (I9100XXLQ5_I9100OXALQ5_OXA.zip, 387.1 MB)
copy and paste
hotfile.com/dl/162208594/226b6f0/I9100XXLQ5_I9100OXALQ5_OXA.zip.html
Odin3 1.85 (Odin 1.85.zip,199 kB)
Make sure your phone’s battery is charged up to 75% or more to avoid interruptions during the process.
Backup all personal data on your phone to make sure you have a copy of your personal data (e.g., contacts, SMS, MMS,
Internet settings, Wi-Fi passwords, and the like) in case the procedure in this guide erases such data.
For backup tips, check our guides on how to sync your data to the cloud and how to create local backups of your
mobile data.
Instructions
Extract the contents of the I9100XXLQ5_I9100OXALQ5_OXA.zip file to get these files:
I9100_CODE_I9100XXLQ5_CL753921_REV02_user_low_ship.tar.md5
GT-I9100-MULTI-CSC-OXALQ5.tar.md5
MODEM_I9100XXLQ5_REV_02_CL1165929.tar.md5
u1_02_20120326_emmc_EXT4_8GB.pit
Extract the contents of the Odin 1.85.zip file to obtain the Odin3 v1.85.exe file.
Double-click on the Odin3 v1.85.exe file to launch Odin on your computer.
Unplug your phone from the computer if it is connected. After unplugging, turn your phone off.
Put your phone into Download Mode. To do this, hold the Volume Down, Home, and Power buttons together until the
screen turns on. Press the Volume Up key to put your phone into Download Mode.
Connect your phone to the PC using the USB cable. In Odin, a message saying “Added!!†will appear on the bottom left
of the window.
In the Odin window, click on the PDA button and select the
I9100_CODE_I9100XXLQ5_CL753921_REV02_user_low_ship.tar.md5file. The file should show on the space beside the PDA
button.
Click on the PHONE button and select MODEM_I9100XXLQ5_REV_02_CL1165929.tar.md5 file. The file should show on the
space beside the Phone button.
Click on the CSC button and select the GT-I9100-MULTI-CSC-OXALQ5.tar.md5file. The file should show on the space
beside the CSC button.
Don’t alter anything else in Odin. Leave everything else as is, except for adding the files mentioned in steps 7 to
9.
Click on the Start button in Odin to start flashing the firmware to your phone.
After the flashing completes, your phone will automatically reboot. You should be able to get a “PASS†message on
the top left part of Odin.
NOTE: If you get a FAIL message or Odin gets stuck, disconnect your phone from the PC and close Odin. Remove the
battery from your phone, re-insert it, and place your phone into Download Mode again. Open Odin and do the procedure
starting from step 6.
Once you see the Samsung logo on your phone’s screen, you can safely disconnect your phone from the PC.
Hope this helps!

There are enough guides in xda. Just read and you probably can solve this
Hey folks,
I have quite some experience with rooting etc, but I don't know how to work with odin.
Could someone provide some kind of guide that will help to install a custom recovery? Via odin
Thanks!
Sent from my GT-I9205 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Here is info on that i had saved for a while now, and this works the same way for flashing recoveries also.
Before Flashing A ROM or .TAR file via ODIN
First, download the latest version of ODIN you can find. i use odin 3.07 which works great
Install ODIN on your computer.
Make sure that your phone's drivers are installed in your computer. If you connect your phone to the computer (and it doesn't have drivers), your computer will find and install them for you. Happened to all Samsung Galaxy devices.
Turn on USB Debugging Mode in your phone by going to Settings > More > Developer options > and check USB debugging box, and if this selection is not shown go to About phone under the More tab still and go down to Build number and tap it 7 times and then it will say developers option is now available or something like that and then go back to Settings > More and you should then see the selection for Developer options.
Make sure that your battery is fully charged or at least 50% charged.
Flashing A ROM or .TAR file via ODIN
Launch ODIN on your computer. Just allow it if your computer asks for permission. Mine does every time.
Unzip the ROM you downloaded (usually a .rar file). It might contain 3 .md5 files, just 1 .md5 file and sometimes, an additional .pit file.
Golden rule: Don't mess with the presets ever. Example, if re-partition is unticked, DO NOT TICK IT. The only time it gets ticked is when you upload a .pit file on the PIT box. If it does, leave it that way. ODIN TICKED IT FOR A REASON. Let ODIN do its job.
See bottom of post for guide on where to place files on ODIN.
Connect your phone to the computer using a USB cable. The box on the upper left corner of ODIN should turn yellow (depending on what version of odin) and the message "Added!" should be on display.
Click "Start" and wait for the box on the upper left to turn green and say "PASS!"
Your phone should auto-reboot after that and presto, you now have a squeaky new ROM/Recovery to play with and you can then disconnect the usb cable now.
Where To Place Files On ODIN
pit file ---> PIT box
If there is just one .md5 file or .tar file, no matter the label place in ---> PDA box
If there are three .md5 files:
file containing "CODE" ---> PDA box
file containing "MODEM" ---> Phone box
file containing "CSC" ---> CSC box
Hope this helps you out.

Hi! Thanks a ton for this extensive post!! I still have one question, with my note n7000 I downloaded a stock rom from Sammobile and got a tar.md5 file. Do I get the same files from Sammobile for the I9205? If so, where do I place this file in odin? Also in PDA?

Hello Peeps,
Here is the tutorial on how to root Jelly Bean 4.3 Android on Grand 2 SM-N7102 Using CF-Auto-Root:
Prerequisites:
Install the USB driver with USB debugging enabled from the Developers Tool
Make a necessary backup of any important data.
Make sure your device has enough battery juice in it (80%)
Step 1: Download and extract the following files:
Download:
Zip File
Odin v3.09
You should get a .tar.md5 file within extracted folder. Extract Odin zip file and you will get Odin3 v3.09.exe along with few other files. You could use any extracting software such a WinZip, Winrar or 7zip to extract files.
Step 2: Put Your Phone In Download Mode
Now turn off your phone and wait few seconds for vibration to confirm complete switch off. Then boot it into the Download Mode. To do that press and keep holding the Volume down and Home button at the same time, with these two buttons pressed press the Power Button all simultaneously. When a warning message is displayed press on the Volume Up button to continue to the process.
Step 3: Run Odin
Now run Odinv3.09.exe in as an Administrator because an Admin privilege is required to complete this installation process without any hiccups. Now connect your phone with your PC using USB cable. Once you connect, you will see a message under Odin’s message box in the bottom left-panel displaying “Added”. You should also see ID: COM port with a number and colored box in Yellow/Blue i.e. if you successfully added your device, if not then you can do the following Steps:
Re-start the same procedure.
Try Uninstalling and then re-installing the drivers again and restart you pc.
Use different USB cable.
Ensure KIES is not running in the background.
Disable Your Antivirus.
Uninstall or disable any program that may be causing conflicts such as your OEM’s PC Suite or any other third party software.
Step 4: Staring the flashing process
In Odin, make sure Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time checkboxes are only two that are selected. DO NOT SELECT ANY OTHER OPTION! Click the AP button and select that file CF-Auto-Root-ms013g-ms013gxx-smg7102.tar.md5 you downloaded earlier in Step 1 with extension .tar.md5. Now, once you are ready, hit the START button to begin the flashing process. This process may take a minute or two to finish. Please do not disconnect your phone once Odin sets in motion. As the installation process completes, your phone will reboot itself and you will see a PASS message with green background in the left-most box at the very top of the Odin. You can now unplug the USB cable to disconnect it from the computer.
Voila, You have successfully rooted your phone
Closed. This is already here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-grand-2/development/cf-root-root-galaxy-grand-2-t2698428
I have a Samsung Galaxy S3 from T-Mobile and I tried rooting the phone using the procedure below obtained form an external link as I was running Android 4.3:
**********************************************************************************
Requirements:
T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S3 SGH-T999 with USB data cable
CF-Root zip package (Download HERE)
Also download Odin3 v3.09 Flashing Utility
Make sure that you’ve installed USB drivers on your PC.
Go to Phone Settings>Developers Options and Enable USB debugging.
Before you start rooting your phone, make sure that you’ve got good enough battery charge.
Last but not the least, Proceed at your own risk.
How to Root T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S3 (SGH-T999) on Android 4.3 Jelly Bean Firmware
1. First of all, extract the CF-Auto-Root-d2tmo-d2tmo-sght999.zip and Odin v3.09 files to a new folder on your desktop.
2. Now from the extracted folder run Odin3-v3.o9 application on your PC.
3. Next Reboot your T-Mobile Galaxy S3 into Download Mode:
Turn Off Galaxy S3.
Press and Hold down the Volume Down+Home+Power buttons at the same time till you see a warning on your screen.
Further hit the Volume Up button to continue.
4. While in download mode connect your GS3 to PC via the USB data cable. Just make sure that Odin3 detects your device.
5. Also make sure that only Auto Reboot and F. Reset Times options are checked and rest leave the default Odin settings.
6. Finally click the PDA button and from the extracted folder select the CF-Rooted kernel file and hit the START to flash the kernel.
7. Wait for Odin3, When completed, Odin will notify you via the PASS!! message in Odin and at this stage your phone will automatically reboots.
**********************************************************************************
I used Odin3 v3.09 and got a "Pass" message at the end and the phone rebooted as stated in the instructions.
However, it seems that my phone starts up but doesn't load completely. I have device encryption on my phone (as required by work to access work e-mails) and have to enter a password before I can get to my lock screen and though I can enter my password to get past the first lever of encryption, it doesn't load past the Android screen. The snapshots below show both the password entry screen and the android screen on which my phone freezes and doesn't load past.
My question is, is the website above lacking in some directions and did I mess anything up? I'm assuming the phone is not bricked as it still is able to turn on and I'm able to still enter passwords. Is the only way to correct this through a hard factory reset perhaps?
Any assistance on getting the phone up and running would be appreciated!
You might want to ask in correct forum, this is i9300 (int'l s3) forum.
Hi All,
Need some help. My Samsung S3 mini i2800L was flashed with the wrong firmware in an attempt to upgrade to Jellybean 4.2.2 using odin and it failed . It remained in download mode and I did a battery pull ,now the phone is absolutely dead. Black Screen for all the following:Recovery Mode and Download Mode .The phone wont power on at all. The only sign of life , is when I plugged into my girl friend's Toshiba laptop via usb cable and it searched and installed the drivers.In addition Windows makes a sound when the device is plugged in and unplugged, but is not being recognized by Kies or Odin. I also tried a USB JIG with no success.
Is there any debrick file that I can use for to place on my SD card and attempt to boot from SD, or is JTAG the only option left?
yes!!! you can UNBrick it!!!
OK ... good news for you is it can still be read by the comp when connected (prompts by audio signal) ... it wont take more than 2 min to unbrick your phone... tell me have if you have a stock ROM available for your device?
