[Q] Which version of stock firmware (CSC) to get from sammobile.com? - Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys!
I've ordered a SM-920F from amazon today , YAY
I want to download the stock firmware from sammobile.com to have ready just in case.
My question is, what version (or CSC) do I download ? does it really matter ?
Is there maybe a generic version not related to any carrier ?
I have no clue what country this specific phone was made for, all I know is it's unlocked.
Thanks guys !

Download Phone Info from the play store to see which country/version you're on, but basically you can download and install ANY 920F firmware.

Well, i bought my phone here in the Philippines. Also i came across a thailand firmware while searching and it matches mine, but the link is not available anymore.
So if you can find/give a stock firmware for me it will really help me a lot.
p.s. i cant post links yet so google "s7500dxlb1" and view the one that says "S7500DXLB1 Android 2.3.6 Thailand Firmware Download" to see the link im talking about.

Don't be worry.
I live in Taiwan but I can flash even German version( I've tried before)
This firmware is the latest. I think your version is older one. Samsung released several version to make it stable, so the latest version is the stablest version and it will also add some new features.
Actually, all S7500 firmware is suitable but you have to notice that your area.
Because I found I flash German 2.3.6 stock firmware and I cannot have stock Chinese keyboard in it.
Flash your country version is the best choice.
p.s. if you flash from a custom rom, don't forget to back up data you want and do factory reset. it will make your S7500 work like a new phone
thanks a lot

Help with Galaxy S6

Guys I have a Galaxy S6 (SM-920I).
The firmware which came with it was G920IDVU3DOJ6 (Saudi Arabia). So can I use other countries firmware to flash this if I have to? Coz I cant find the Saudi Arabian version on net for Odin. The only place is Samsfirmware. And it's a pain in the ass to download from there without premium account. So please help me out guys. Can I use other versions of SM-920I for my phone? Or will it result in a bootloop or not boot at all.

As long as the firmware flashed is for G920I there should be no problems. The only thing you need to watch out for is you cannot downgrade the ROM i.e. flash 5.0.2 onto a S6 with 5.1.1 bootloader. If you upgraded to 5.1.1 beforehand you can only flash a 5.1.1 ROM.

Latest firmware for 920F?

Just received an unbranded new 920F that is on C0I9 firmware and appears to be from the UAE. Sammobile shows a QOLK from TIM Italy dated Jan 4 2016.
What is the latest firmware I need without getting carrier specific bloat installed (if possible). I don't want UAE firmware.
Thanks!

cheers

Thanks.. Is this branded to a French network with boot logo and bloatware? I'm so confused with with these international versions. Also, how will future updates be delivered? I'm on AT&T.

Hi. Yeah...I'm using international versions now as well. You can get updates via Kies...but I've noticed some regions get updates faster and at different times. I've found just keep track of unbranded and Odin them when u feel like upgrading. My phone was originally UAE...I just turned it into DDE (German) OK2 firmware. Runs great....ZERO bloat. It's awesome. I'm on TMO
France XEF gets fast updates trust me, and about bloadtwares it's good enough for me so is for u i hope, and no special boot logo only the original
cheers
I am unable to flash any firmware with odin without error, can you help?

Fail to Upgrade SM-G920I (Spark) to 6.0.1

Hi Guys,
I've bought a Galaxy S6 (SM-G920i) on B&H unlocked, and it comes with an Australian firmware (SPARK) 5.1.1.
I've downloaded an unbranded firmware from sam, but I can't installed. It has failed before instalation begins.
Has this firmware (SPARK) any kind of lock that can't allow me to install an unbranded firmware? I want to stay with the phone stock and with an unbranded version of 6.0.1.
If anyone can give me a clue, I'll really appreciate it!
Regards,
Power

check your csc, it may need to be changed if spark has not as yet released a 6.0.1 upgrade.

Thanks for your reply Cosmic! I'm trying to push the firmware via Odin. I think CSC should not a problem at this point. I can't understand why I can't flash an stock firmware via Odin. I'm starting to think that it has any kind of lock.
Anyone had the same experience than me?
Thanks in advance,

Hi mate
Not sure what you want.....
for the S7 International there are many CSC ... is not just one
You can flash any G930F firmware in your phone that is not an issue....you must care that it has your required language and that the selected CSC has your carrier specific options...like wifi calling , Volte......
What country are you from and what carrier do you use?
BTW you said your phone is broken...what happened?

Use SmartSwitch Emergency Recovery mode. Do not connect the phone, but type in your serial (not IMEI) when it ask for it, and it downloads the ROM for your device original market (which is may not the same as your country if you bought it online)
