...i think i need to go to some android proffesional school cuz every day i learn something new...and that's cool
Hi kepiro,
you can extract modem.bin from the firmware image with 7zip or WinRAR, ignore the error message and extract the file. For changing your CSC you can have a look here.
Flashing modem.bin is possible with odin.

i know i can extract modem.bin but how?....the exact steps, i mean where is located modem.bin in a specific .tar image?
and after that, do i need to compress the modem.bin into something else? to flash it with odin or what?
thx

The modem.bin is located in the root of the compressed tar, here's a picture of the opened archive: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-alpha/help/lolipop-modem-t3185495.
You can take the modem.bin file untouched to flash via odin.

Hi can i extract my firmware with winrar, cos all the videos i watched they just extracted it and it became a normal file but my extracted file has the winrar logo on it. So i just wanted to ask if its ok cos it has the HOME. Tar on it.

Hi!
I really don't know if this question belongs to here or in the Development section of the forum...
So, how do I split the firmware file in the 3 parts: CSC, MODEM & KERNEL?
Thanks.
Regards.
Create a tarball with modem.bin for the Phone
Create a tarball with hidden.img and cache.img for CSC
Create a tarball with all the rest (boot.bin factoryfs.img param.lfs Sbl.bin zImage) for PDA
can i use 7zip to make tarball ?
Thank you.
I don't know about that. Always done it in OpenSUSE using the Linux terminal.
Yes Zzip makes tar .

@Intratech
Thank you for your helpful instructions;
After some testing I can say that this method do not full wipe within the flash procedure.
Allow me one more question: which script/file i have to alter/edit to get a "full wipe" 3 parts firmware ?
I would be grateful for furter detailed instructions.
best regards
Thank you so much

As for boot file , as you know in odin there is bootloader button can i use it there ?
if not where to get the bootloader file ??
cuz the idea to mix the firmware a lil bit to make downgrade for some galaxy phones like the galaxy S4 & S3 from 4.4.2 to 4.3
Guys,
I need the modem so I can use other roms that have a built in modem, if Simone explains how to extract the modem and make it a cwm zip or just flash through Odin, jist can't seem to figure out how to extract the modem from the original image.
Just open the .tar of the rom you flash in odin with winrar or 7zip and extract the modem.bin from it. You can either flash the modem.bin with mobile odin or odin or in the thread for the request for the telstra modem I have a link to a flashable zip I made for modems so just download that and replace the modem.bin in the zip with the modem.bin you extracted from the .tar file.

Hello,
I want to return my Samsung S3 to unrooted stock firmware, I have just reset my flash counter but I am having a few issues following this tutorial:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2343338
I have acquired the stock firmware, and booted my phone into download mode, Heindall can connect to the phone and I saved my .pits file successfully to the Desktop of my Mac.
However, wafter extracting the .md5 file the tutorial starts by loading the 'ABOOT" file in Heimdall and I don't have an ABOOT file. After extracting the stock firmware I have these files:
boot.img
cache.img
hidden.img
modem.bin
recovery.img
sboot.bin
system.img
tz.img
Can someone advise me ion how to procees flashing the custom firmware? I downloaded the latest UK stock firmware which is unbranded (as is my phone) and matched up the baseband etc so I know it's the correct version. I just want to unroot/re-lock the bootloader etc.
Thanks
Edited.

Please use the red report button to report your post this is not Q&A.
Sboot.bin is the file you are looking for. Aboot is only for Snapdragon phones, yours is Exynos.

I have G925S model and 2G network not work stable because the stock rom only have 3G and LTE option.
So someone have G925F model can use this software and backup Radio image, please?

you could also download your firmware..rename the tar.md5 to tar and extract it..voila
Odin don't let me flash G925F modem. Failed everytime. I think bootloader not accept another baseband.

I can't flash G925F's modem via Odin. Even with SkipSoft ToolKit you mention above. I think G925S carrier bootloader prevent flash another radio/modem.
is there a fastboot method for Samsung..? that was good on HTC

Do you know another flash modem.bin without Odin? I tried Flashfire but not successful.

I need help in the problem of non-completion of the installation of the firmware
phone Galaxy S6 Edge Model SM-G925I
Root was rooting , When you attempt the firmware installation is not completed See attached photo .
The file was the inauguration of linkage here and then returned to life, but so far the inauguration of the firmware can not be the same problem .

Thank you pending resolution of the problem
you need to have a pit file that matches you device..or you need to have the firmware file your phone comes with..

now..comes the part that is not simple..there non online..you must get it from your phone..the best is a rooted phone..there are some tutorials and tools online..simple google search it..I tried but was tired with my non rooted phone..
BTW..what you can try is to extract the firmware and make your own with only system and kernel firmware..look in the general thread for new Vodafone firmware..I will try that also...it should bring a few updates..

I got the same issue many times with some regional FWs on my old GS5, just follow these steps and you should be ok, i guess it's a mismatched "hidden" partition size, you don't need anyway, i contains only some bloats most of the times.
- Extrat the FW with any archiving tool (i recommend 7zip).
- Remove "Hidden.img"
- Repack all other files as "tar" archive with 7zip, OR linux command line "tar -cvf G925I_AOD1.tar sboot.bin cm.bin recovery.img boot.img cache.img modem.bin system.img"
- Flash it through Odin
