Procedure to install Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean XXUANF1 firmware on Samsung Galaxy Star Pro Duos S7262

Step 1: Download and extract both the above files in a specific folder on your PC. You can use Winrar to extract the same.

Step 5: Launch ‘Odin Multi Downloader3-v3.09′ software which you’ve just got after extraction. As soon as you open it, the ID: COM section in it (located at the top left corner) will turn blue. Also, an Added message will appear in the message window. This will confirm that your device has been successfully connected to the PC.

Note: But if it doesn’t turn blue then it’s more likely to be a problem with the device drivers. Immediately check whether you’ve properly installed the device-specific drivers on your PC or not. You can install them via Samsung Kies or manually install them from the links given above.

Step 6: Next tick the Auto Reboot option and F.Reset option located on the Odin window. Do not tick or un-tick any other option.
