If you have used Kingo android Root already, skip this step. Otherwise, do it manually. Following are ways to do this...

Visit Samsung official website to find the correspondent driver software.
Google the driver software of your device. Download and then install it on you computer.
Download or update Kies, part of which will install or update drivers.
Once drivers are installed or updated, it is highly recommended that you restart your computer.
After downloading it (normally a compressed file), you need to extact/unzip it to certain location of your PC. The file types that Odin uses are *.bin,*.tar and *.tar.md5.
You can download Odin V3.10.7 directly from SamMobile. AndroidMTK is a fine alternative, it also offers a detailed list of Odin versions and download link. Or you can always Google "Odin download". After downloading it on your PC, extract it to Desktop or another location you'd prefer.
Follow these steps to enter Download Mode/Odin Mode

Power off your device
Press and hold Volume Down key, Home Key and Power Key
When your device vibrates, release Power key while keep holding the Volume Down key and Home k
Press Volume Up key to enter Download mode, which has a green robot figure and “Downloading… Do not turn off target!!)
You device should be automatically recognized by Odin. At the lower-left of Odin interface, it should show a message that says "Added!" and in the meantime you should see a light-blue box at the ID:COM section stating "COM:3" (the number depend on which USB port you have plugged the device cable and is irrelevant).Whether it is "PDA" or "AP" depends on the version of Odin that you used. But the md5 file goes to either "PDA" or "AP".
When the flashing process is done and if everything goes well, you should see a big green box saying "RESET" or "PASSED" (depends on the version of Odin is used). By now, the device should be rebooted and it is safe to remove/unplug your device.
Flash succeeded.
