How to return your Samsung Galaxy Light to stock
These instructions should fix your semi-bricked or broken phone as long as you can get it into download mode. Make sure you have drivers already installed on your Windows computer before starting. Please read them all the way through and then begin. pay no mind to minor changes in the images, they are taken from the last big odin guide i did. i have configured the odin settings file so all you need to do is click the pda button.
You will need:
SGH-T399-Stock-MJA.zip
Set up the software:
Extract the zip
Run Odin3
Put your phone in Download Mode:
Power your device off
Make sure the usb cable is not connected (it tends to mess up due to charging animation)
Press and hold volume down, home and power
You will see a warning screen
Press volume up to continue to download mode
Connect USB cable
Odin should now look like this:
Dont mess with the settings, i have it configured via the ini file
Click on PDA and load T399UVUAMJ4_T399TMBAMJ4_T399UVUAMJ4_HOME.tar.md5
You should now look like this
Now you should be able to click Start.
When you click start you should see something similar to this:
Your phone should auto-reboot when finished and should be working 100%!
Troubleshooting:
Odin isn't detecting the phone?!
It seems frozen and hasn't made any progress for 15 minutesTry a different USB port
Try a different usb cable (you would not believe how often these two suggestions fix it)
Uninstall the drivers, reboot, and reinstall the drivers
System.img takes awhile but if it stays on that for longer than 15 minutes unplug the phone and pull the battery and start over
