Updated: 09/05/2020. The JOdin tool’s working version as of November 2019 has been added in this post. If you are looking forward to using this tool on the latest macOS, you can do so now. Any further updates will be added as soon as we get them.
Download Odin (Jdoin3) For MAC OSX. Odin3 is Samsung’s little tool for flashing firmware, recoveries, bootloaders or modem files on a Samsung Galaxy device. If you’ve had a good experience with Samsung devices, you must be well aware of the tool, however just in case you don’t know, this tool paves a way for Samsung Galaxy users to a vast world of Android MODs and tweaks. With the help of Odin3, Samsung Galaxy users can unleash the true power of their device.
The tool actually becomes handy when your device is soft-bricked and you can’t find a way to fix it. By flashing stock firmware using Odin3, you can restore your device to complete stock firmware, or in case you want to unroot your device, flashing stock firmware will do the job as well. In case you want to flash a different Modem or Bootloader prior to installing a custom ROM on your device, Odin3 is going to be used to perform this task.
Most of the custom recoveries also come in .tar.md5 or .tar format, the only way to flash these files may be through Odin3, while one of the major uses for which Odin is very well known, is the CF-Autoroot. CF-Autoroot is Chainfire’s rooting script available for 100s of devices. By flashing through Odin3, this tool can root your device in a blink of an eye.
You sure have a pretty good idea about Odin3 now. Let’s get back to our topic for now. Until a while back, Odin3 was only available for Windows PC. That means if you own a Macbook or a Linux computer, you may not be able to use Odin3 on the OS directly. Users had installed a VMware to run Windows OS and then use Odin3. This thing has forbidden a number of MAC users from enjoying the open-source nature of Android on their Galaxy Devices.
To cheer such users up, famous XDA developer Adam Outler has ported Odin3 to MAC and named it as JOdin3. JOdin3 works with Heimdell, that was previously available for MAC, but now users can do their tasks much more easily using JOdin3. If you have had experience with Odin3 on a Windows PC, you would love to know that JOdin3 comes with no difference, this tool is pure the same as that of the original Odin3. You can flash files in .tar.md5 and other formats using PDA, Bootloader, Phone & CSC Tab. Let’s go through the download and installation instructions now and get it running on your MAC OSX.

At the time of writing this post, JOdin3 doesn’t support flashing large files, e.g. Firmware files. The tool is useful to flash Recovery, Root, Modem or Bootloader files. Furthermore, the tool is self explanatory, it will guide you through all the steps in order to get the flashing process done.

You really should elaborate on "Make sure that you do not have Samsung Kies installed on your MacBook."
I have Kies installed. now what???
@john_bee:disqus then uninstall it.
What if I'm in a boot loop and can't uninstall anything?
@sraichinger:disqus Kies is installed on your computer, it doesn't have to do anything with your phone being stuck in bootloop.
Hi, the link to the offline version of Odin seems dead. Does somebody have a live one ?

How did you get Heimdall installed on El Capitan? My computer keeps saying that there is a compatibility issue.
try v1.41 for osx install.
