    2) Download ODIN if you don't already have it as you will need this. You can get it from here http://www.multiupload.com/1RTGS…

    3) Reboot your phone into download mode. To do this first shut down the device. Then, press and hold the down volume key + home button + power button.

    4) A warning will pop up asking you to confirm if you want to go into download mode (by pressing up) or if you want to cancel (by pressing down) Press up and enter download mode

    5) Start up ODIN on your PC

    6) From the 2.3.4 RAR file you have download, there will be 3 RAR files inside when you extract.

    7) Click on PDA, Phone, and CSC, and choose the 3 files so it loads as below.

    PDA - CODE_I9100XXKG1_CL349526_REV02_u...
    Phone - MODEM_I9100XXKG1_REV_02_CL103411...

    8) Connect the phone to the PC via a USB cable and wait for the ID:COM box to turn yellow

    9) Click start to flash the new firmware IMPORTANT: Do not disconnect the cable or turn off the device, it will reboot when it has finished
