Many users, especially youngsters, like to play with their phones by tinkering with options found under device settings, trying different apps, mods, patches, ROMs, and exploits. Doing such things on their phones has become a favorite pastime for many smartphone users these days. Since activities like trying different mods and ROMs sometimes create a mess, you may need to flash the stock firmware on your phone to restore it and make usable.

On the other hand, many people just get a phone and use it as long as they want without involving into any activities that can be risky because either they don’t have an interest or time for such things. However, despite keeping away from risky stuff, they sometimes get into situations when installing the official firmware remains the only lifesaving option for their phone.

Whether your device has started misbehaving or has been caught into a bootloop, you can easily restore it to stock and fix such issues. While it’s not very easy to get the stock firmware for the devices by some manufacturers, it’s always easy to get the official ROMs for Samsung Galaxy devices. There are many sites which provide firmware download links, but downloading firmware from there might be a hell of a job, especially if you don’t have a super fast and stable data connection. Moreover, such sites don’t support resume download feature.
