If you're working on a Samsung Galaxy S25 series (S25, S25+, S25 Ultra) and getting stuck when flashing with Odin — this will help.
Most techs report Odin failing at:
css
CopyEdit
<ID:0/005> super.img
FAIL!
Complete(Write) operation failed.
And the phone itself shows this red message:
“Download failed due to incompatible DOWNLOAD program. Please try again with the latest version.”
This is a very common issue with the new S25 models, especially U.S. variants like SM-S936U/U1, and it's not fixed by using newer Odin versions.
I recorded a full video tutorial showing exactly how to fix this and flash the phone successfully without bootloop or softbrick.

This method covers:
Choosing the correct firmware (including bit version tip)
Proper file extraction and setup
Key Odin settings that prevent flash fail
How to avoid the super.img error and complete the flash safely
