This shouldn't have been a problem in the first place but I'm thankful for this solution. This worked immediately. I had tried to download and flash several versions of stock rom to get the IMEI and Baseband back through different versions of Odin but failed everytime for the whole week. So thank you again.

brother i have few doubts in recovery steps provided by samsung can you please clarify it.

DOUBT 1 :  we have to back up data or  no need of it ? as they didn't mention the use of smart switch.  if we don't use  smart switch will data remains  same or lost ?

DOUBT 2 : In step 4  they said put the 2 downloaded files in one folder , here my question is which type of folder [ zip folder or normal folder].
