How to use on Samsung Galaxy S while using ODIN.

1. Pull out the battery for about 2-5 minutes, then inplace it back again. Do not turn it ON yet.
2. Connect the jig you just made. Avoid touching the resistor and pins on the back or just put a a non inductive cover around it, an electrical tape works. The device will just turn into download mode in just a couple of seconds without pressing any buttons.

3. Once the Samsung Galaxy S displays the Downloading, disconnect the homemade jig USB plug and connect a regular USB cable from your PC to the phone, then you can flash the device using Odin.

Or to avoid any hassles or without any soldering skills ask Google where to find it.
