Disclaimer:
It is highly recommended to follow the instructions mentioned below carefully. Since the Android 2.2.2 Froyo DDKC4 firmware flashing process is risky and if you don’t follow the steps as they are mentioned below then there is a high possibility that you may even brick your Galaxy Pro smartphone. If such a thing happens then we at droidthunder.com will not be held responsible for that. Although there are fewer chances that your phone will get bricked or damaged. Still, make sure you are following all the steps carefully and without performing anything on your own. This Official Android 2.2.2 Froyo DDKC4 firmware update must be flashed only on Samsung Galaxy Pro with the model number GT-B7510. Do not install this firmware update on any other device or variant as it may result in unwanted outcomes or bricked devices. Confirm your device model number from Homescreen–> Menu–>Settings –> About Phone before moving ahead.
Pre-Requisites:
- Make sure that your Galaxy Pro is charged at least up to 60%.
- Backup all your important phone data and settings including your contacts, apps, SMS/MMS, call logs, memos and APN settings, etc. before proceeding ahead. This is essential as complete data gets wiped in the flashing process.
- Ensure that you have installed mobile-specific drivers on your computer to detect the device when you connect it to your computer. You can install them from the Samsung Kies CD which you’ve got at the time of purchase or just manually install them from the link given below.
- (Optional) Disable all the security tools as well as antivirus that are installed on your computer temporarily. They may increase the risk of interruption during the firmware installation process.
Procedure to install Android 2.2.2 Froyo DDKC4 firmware on Galaxy Pro GT-B7510
Download files:
Procedure:
Step 1: Download and extract both the above files to a convenient location on your computer.
Step 2: Then power off your Galaxy Pro device.
Step 3: After your Galaxy Pro is completely switched off, boot it into downloading mode. The same can be done by pressing and holding the ‘Home button + Power button + Volume down key’ simultaneously until you see a warning message. You can then leave all the keys.
Step 4: Keeping your device in the same condition, connect it to your computer using the micro USB cable. Then just press the Volume up button to continue. This will directly land your Galaxy Pro into downloading mode. Refer to the screenshot.
Step 5: On the PC, launch the downloaded ‘Odin Multi Downloader3-v3.12.7′ software which you’ve just received after extraction. As soon as you open it, the ID: COM section located at the top left corner will turn light blue. Also, an Added message will appear in the message box window. This will confirm that your Galaxy Pro has been successfully connected to your computer.
Note: If such a thing doesn’t happen then it’s more likely to be a problem with the mobile specific drivers. So just confirm whether you’ve properly installed the mobile specific drivers on your computer or not. You can install them via Samsung Kies or manually install them from the links given in the Pre-Requisites section. If the problem persists try changing the USB cable or the USB port.
Step 6: Then go to the Options menu present on the Odin window. There you’ll find Auto Reboot and F.Reset Time options. Tick only these two options and leave all the other options as they are.
Note: Do not tick the Re-partition option as it may increase the risk of bricking your device.
Step 7: Next, click on the AP button on the Odin window and browse to the firmware package file which you’ve downloaded and select it.
Step 8: You need to just initiate the firmware flashing process now. For doing so, click on the Start button located on the Odin window.
Note: The phone will automatically boot itself while the process goes on. Do not interrupt the flashing process by disconnecting the micro USB cable.
Step 9: Be patient and wait for few minutes until the flashing process completes. As soon as it completes successfully, you’ll see that the ID: COM section on the Odin window is turned green with the message ‘Pass’ on it. On the other side, your Galaxy Pro smartphone will automatically restart itself. This will confirm that the Official Android 2.2.2 Froyo DDKC4 firmware has been successfully installed on your Samsung Galaxy Pro GT-B7510. Now you may safely disconnect your phone from the computer by removing the micro USB cable.
Note: If the process fails or if Odin gets stuck or in case your device gets into a boot loop, then close the Odin window, remove the battery from your Galaxy Pro and re-insert it. Again go into downloading mode and follow the same procedure as given above.
