In short
[root] Mobile ODIN Pro is an Android app developed by Chainfire.
Highlights
Completely and with absolute confidence
Still good work in the past so not complaining there
Well worth the few quid
This is an awesome app from an awesome dev
Jake and Alex are great examples of Tools
Can be a life saver at times
Follow them simple directions it was a lot easier than I thought
So I need to find a way to flash stock back and this helped
Just asks me to pull a dump file
Verizon Samsung Galaxy S5 is not supported under ART Runtime System
And wouldn't allow refund even though I DID NOT generate crash dump
Won't flash bootloader
Do not use with ART runtme
Does not work with new builds of cm that use privacy guard
A locked bootloader is unable to use this app
To late to get a refund conviently enough
Sorry he failed to do the research for you
Tells me my model isn't supported and offers no refund button

Discussion and support: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1347899 MANUAL You start by starting the app and the app will check your system has everything it needs to continue (like root). It may need to download an additional package, so it is advised to have Wi-Fi available. Now you should see the main Mobile ODIN screen, listing a set of partitions. Clicking a partition will allow you to select a file from your SD card to flash to that partition. Do not worry about selecting the wrong file - Mobile ODIN will not let you. Separate files (named after the partition) as well as .tar and .tar.md5 files are supported. From the desktop ODIN you may be used to "PDA", "PHONE", and "CSC"buttons. All three of these buttons have been replaced by the "Open file ..."button. This button will open the file you select from the SD card, and find all the partitions it can flash inside that file. If you select a .tar file containing kernel and modem, the Kernel and Modem partitions will be set up to use that .tar file for flashing. Now that we have selected what we want to flash, if you have the Pro version you can proceed to the EverRoot section. The EverRoot options allows you to root your firmware while it is being flashed. Never again will you be without root! Now that we are all done selecting partitions and configuring EverRoot, we continue to "Flash firmware". Mobile ODIN will gather all the information it needs and perform the flash. Before starting, however, it will check that your battery level is over 50%, and if applicable offer to verify MD5 checksums on the files you have selected to flash. If all is well, it will reboot into recovery mode, and flash the firmware you have selected.
