from here
https://samsung-firmware.org/model/GT-I9100/
to change my modem to see if my phone would be less hot in GPS mode. the only file that there is in the ZIP file is
I9100XWLSW_I9100XXMS2_I9100XEULS5_HOME.tar.md5
which contains

and in Odin3_v3.09, I put the phone in DOWNLOAD MODE, check ''phone'' box and I select this big file
I9100XWLSW_I9100XXMS2_I9100XEULS5_HOME.tar.md5,
but odin says the binary is invalid

How do I install a modem with a file *.tar.md5 ?
try to flash everything the ROM included, that may help you
Yes I can flash all the rom, but I like the rom I have now and I do not want to reinstall everything. THe worst part is that I have to re-run a pit file to install the old rom+modem

The file that you downloaded is a complete firmware, you'll have to extract the modem from the firmware and then create your own Odin flashable .tar.md5 file containing the modem by itself. Then flash that file via Odin.
These threads should help you get started extracting the modem from the firmware and creating your own modem.tar.md5 to flash in Odin. This was written in the days of android Jelly Bean and Kit Kat, some things have changed since then might change some of those steps and how they are done, you might have to research how to compensate for how things have changed from one android version to the next.

I only received my S2 a few days ago and being completely new Android i decided to keep things as simple as possible flashing the latest Checkrom in order to get rid of the stock Vodafone UK bloatware.
I did this simply by flashing CF-Root via Odin and then flashing the Checkrom zip via CWM. This is the sum total of my flashing experience.
In order to be able to return my phone to out-of-the-box stock i downloaded 'GT-I9100_VOD_I9100BUKJ3_I9100VODKI2_I9100BUKI1.exe' and 'Kernel_I9100BUKJ3.exe' from the carrier branded stock firmware thread.
However, after running each .exe (a 7zip extract) i am left with GT-I9100_VOD_I9100BUKJ3_I9100VODKI2_I9100BUKI1.tar.md5 and Kernel_I9100BUKJ3.tar.md5.
Given that these are neither regular .tar files or .zip files i'm unsure of the correct procedure for flashing them. I have read a bunch of threads about flashing stock kernals and roms but i'm still not 100% about what software/tools i need to use to flash them and in what order (kernal or firmware first).
If anyone could help me out i'd really appreciate it.
Thanks

[ROMS]Official i9100 carrier branded firmware download for Odin Flash
In an effort to keep things simple and avoid confusion I have moved all the carrier branded firmware to this thread.
The guide for flashing and rooting your device can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1075278
Its usual to follow the relevant instructions regarding whatever flash is used .
As the man says on the instruction page
I've started to package the tarball archives with the md5 hash to maintain the integrity of the packages. Just treat the tarballs in the same way as you would without the .md5 at the end. DO NOT CHANGE THE NAME OF THE ARCHIVE
jje
I've tried several MD5 utilities & none can access Indirect's MD5 files posted in his goo-insideme folder. FastSum chokes on there being no *prepending the associated filename.
So @Indirect what are you using?
Anyone else what have you found to work best?
I've searched the entire site and none of the utilities mentioned properly access these associated .md5 files.
Can you be more specific, i have checked and there are no .md5 files in Indirec't files i've seen a windows application md5sum.exe and in others his own apps check md5 but thats it,is that what you referring? or you want to find a way to check md5 of a file like for example boot.img?
A .md5 file like for example nandroid.md5 created after a CWM backup can be accessed with notepad:

Thanks for your prompt reply!
I am a proponent of letting the machine do the checking so I seek to automate where possible. When the download page loads it presents the visible sum and a MD5 file to download as well. 2 utilities I've tried choke on there being no "*" prepending the filename that follows the sum within the file. If I add the "*" these utilities do report file verified.
I understand that Goo-Inside may be generating the MD5 on it's own is a possibility.
so what you want is to create .md5 file? thats easy , let me know so i show you

Open the file using 7zip/winrar..extract the modem.bin file..
sent from here, there, somewhere!!
...and flash via Odin using the "Phone" entry, not "PDA".
Conversely, if you delete modem.bin from the .tar file of a ROM, your current modem is retained.
Hi,
On not root device, when you flash modem.bin file via Odin ( Phone entry)
What about:

Phone:
OTA and Kies updates?

Hi guys, I have a Galaxy S3 (international model) which I'm having odin problems with. I was running 4.0.4 stock ROM with cfroot isntalled and I flashed it via odin just fine. Then 4.1.1 came along so I tried flashing it via odin but it was hanging for 10 minutes on the "get PIT for mapping". So I ended up flashing 4.1.1 BTU ROM via Kies and everything went fine. This of course removed my root permissions.
So I've tried to reflash cfroot back to the phone and I'm getting the same error message. I'm also getting the error while trying to flash any stock ROM. So how do I go about fixing this?
Things I've tried so far: using odin on a PC that's never had Kies; using a win XP PC; removing my SD card; performing a factory reset; reinstalling the usb driver; redownloading cfroot. I've tried everything I can think of. Is there anything else I can try?
Or is there a way to root my S3 without odin? I'll appreciate any help. I've done a lot of searching but I haven't found anything to help.
TL: DR I get the error message "get PIT for mapping..." from odin when trying to flash anything. What do?
If I were to try flashing a XXDLJ4 .pit file along with the ROM itself, would that fix it? If so, does anybody have that .pit file?
This is what my result is each time.

Im stuck, i've been stuck for 8 hours. Searched and searched and searched no luck. I Tried to root my dads SGS3, successfully installed TWRP, backed up rom but KNOX kept crashing SuperSU. Tried to flash CM10.2, wouldn't flash so when i was restoring the nan-droid, restored fine but stuck on 'samsung' with led flashing. I can get in Recovery and Download mode but still can't get into android. Ive tried flashing 4.1.2 & 4.3 from sam-mobile still no luck. Am i doomed?
-Had all drivers installed before hand so i don't think its a driver issue.
-Can't boot into android at all
-Have no OS installed now since somehow my sd card is wiped now.
-All i have is a connection to ODIN which refuses to flash

If you have an i9300 then you are trying to flash the wrong firmware. If you actually have a T999 then you are posting in the wrong forum.
Suggest you read and understand the basics before you do anything else.
