Running Odin with Mac. A Step by Step guide:

Before starting the whole procedure please keep in mind that you follow the whole procedure very carefully and you don’t miss any step. It is easy and can be reverted but mistake could damage your phone so yeah be very careful. Ok so let’s get on with the process.

1. Open any browser installed on your Mac (in my case it is Fire Fox), it would be better if you use the same browser.
2. Open this site. When website is opened, click on Activate Java Applet and then allow it.
3. Now to install the HEIMDALL click on the blue link just below the window. This will take you to the HEIMDALL website. Download it for your OSX. It is a 7 Mb software and should download in few seconds.
4. Now once the download is completed and you will run the app, it will give an error that your OS can’t recognize the developer. Don’t worry this is easy to resolve.
5. Go to System Preferences in your Mac. In there, go to Security and Privacy.
6. Now you will see a message at the bottom which would be a warning that you Mac is blocking this app HEIMDALL. Right beside it, there will be an option which is Open Anyway. Click on this option and proceed.
7. Now it will take you ahead. If you haven’t installed the software then install it (in my case it is installed) and then you would be able to proceed ahead if it’s working just fine.
8. Now in your Mac open the Terminal. In the terminal, type HEIMDALL and Info. This will give you all the info about your HEIMDALL on Mac.
9. Now again in the terminal, type HEIMDALL and Detect, Now if you see Error: Failed to detect compatible download-mode device, then you are going just right with me. It is time to put the file in download mode.
10. Now in the terminal, type ADB Reboot and Download. Once it is done successfully you are alright and the download mode is enabled. Follow 1st line in step 9 to check again whether you are connected or not. You can also see the detection in Casual in the browser link.
11. If due to some reason it is not working on web, then click Web Start at the right with blue link and run it.
12. Now you will have to click on PDA. Now go to your desktop in the browsing menu and click on the speed mode.
13. Now click on Start. To start flashing you need to add a file named PIT which is right there in front of you on your screen. Click it and add to your flashing process.
14. Now you will have to put it back in download mode. To do that, go to terminal again and type ADB Reboot and Download as I have already told in a step before. Now you will see that it show the connected alert again which means we are ready.
15. Now click on Start and wait for some time until the loading process is done. Once it is done then that’s it!

Note: When click PDA after this and nothing happens then don’t worry. That might be because your PDA is already opened in the background. So minimize the browser and use the window from background.

So easy, wasn’t it? In case I missed something that you know then please leave your feedback in the comments section and say what you know!
