What good is firmware without flashing? Samsung’s official Odin is Windows-only, but Linux has Heimdall – a cross-platform open-source flashing tool.

Install Heimdall:

sudo apt install heimdall-flash   # Debian/Ubuntu
sudo dnf install heimdall         # Fedora

Flash the firmware you downloaded (SamFirm output): samfirm tool linux

heimdall flash --BL BL_G960*.tar.md5 --AP AP_G960*.tar.md5 --CP CP_G960*.tar.md5 --CSC CSC_G960*.tar.md5 --no-reboot

Important: Heimdall does not support HOME_CSC (it will wipe data). Use the standard CSC included in the SamFirm download.
