+
+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,
+ available from http://qt.nokia.com/.
+
+ 2. Open a terminal and navigate to the directory you extracted Heimdall to.
+
+ 3. Enter the following commands to compile and install Heimdall Frontend:
+
+ cd heimdall-frontend
+ qmake heimdall-frontend.pro
+ make
+ sudo make install
+
+ NOTE: You can use "checkinstall" instead of "make install" in order to
+ generate a redistributable package.
+
+ 4. Done
+
+
+
+Flashing Firmware with Heimdall Frontend:
+
+ 1. Fully charge your device (use the wall charger as it's faster).
+
+ 2. Download a decrypted Samsung Galaxy S ROM and extract it to a directory.
+
+ 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.
+
+ 4. Put your Galaxy S device into download mode.
+
+ 5. For each file you wish to flash use "Browse" to select the file.
+
+ 6. Press "Start".
+
+ 7. Heimdall Frontend will display the progress and inform you when the
+ flash is complete.
+
+
+
+Flashing Firmware from Command Line / Terminal:

+ 4. Open a terminal and navigate to the directory where you extracted the
+ ROM files.

+
+ heimdall help

+ 8. Use the instructions to manually enter a command with all the files you
+ want to flash.
+
+ Here is an example that does a full flash and repartition:
+
+ heimdall flash --repartition --pit s1_odin_20100512.pit --factoryfs factoryfs.rfs --cache cache.rfs --dbdata dbdata.rfs --primary-boot boot.bin --secondary-boot Sbl.bin --param param.lfs --kernel zImage --modem modem.bin
