DISCLAIMER:
This software attempts to flash your Galaxy S device. The very nature of
flashing is dangerous. As with all flashing software, Heimdall has the
potential to damage (brick) your phone if not used carefully. If you're
concerned, don't use this software. Flashing ROMs onto your phone may also
void your warranty. I am not responsible for the result of your actions.
These instructions are for Linux operating systems.
Installing Heimdall from Source:
1. First make sure you have installed build-tools and pkgconfig.
2. Open a terminal and navigate to the directory you extracted Heimdall to.
3. Then enter the following commands to compile and install libusb-1.0:
cd libusb-1.0
./configure
make
sudo make install
cd ..
If you have problems please consult http://www.libusb.org/
4. Enter the following commands to compile and install Heimdall:
cd heimdall
./configure
make
sudo make install
cd ..
NOTE: You can use "checkinstall" instead of "make install" in order
to generate a redistributable package.
5. If you're not installing from a package then run
Linux/install-udev-rules.sh to setup user-level permissions for libusb.
6. Done
Installing Heimdall Frontend from Source (Optional):
1. First make sure you have installed Qt 4.6 or above,

cd heimdall-frontend
qmake heimdall-frontend.pro

NOTE: You can use "checkinstall" instead of "make install" in order to
generate a redistributable package.

Flashing Firmware with Heimdall Frontend:
1. Fully charge your device (use the wall charger as it's faster).

3. If the ROM is provided as one of more archives (nested or otherwise),
extract them all to the same location.
NOTE: If you want to use the CSC then extract it last.
3. Open Heimdall Frontend, which can be done by entering the following
command in a terminal:
heimdall-frontend
4. Put your Galaxy S device into download mode.
5. For each file you wish to flash use "Browse" to select the file.
