The first thing we have to do is download the executable program for Windows, without the need for installation, which responds to the name of samfirm, from this same link.
Once downloaded we will have a compressed file in RAR format like this:

To run it just double click on the file or click on the right mouse button and select the first option Open:
Now we will be shown the own and simple Samfirm user interface:
Now we will have to click on the button CAR, put the model of our Samsung terminal’s most emblematic landmarks, the CSC corresponding to the firmware that we want to download according to our geographical area, for example to download the latest free Spanish firmware we will put the acronym PHE and for the latest free European firmware the acronym EUR.
