Multi CSC Problem

Hello! I have galaxy s6 duos and want to flash firm http://live.samsung-updates.com/details/48693/Galaxy_S6/SM-G920F/SEK/G920FXXU2BOFJ.html with region csc SEK, BUT this firmware are multi csc and always applies region SER....... what i can do with this without root and tripping knox ?

Try flashing this latest 5.1.1 ROM (CSC: SEK) via odin. After flashing go to recovery mode and do full reset.
If it does not work bring your S6 back to Samsung for free factory reflash to enable your region CSC.

Are you sure that your phone has SEK as CSC? If you flash a multi CSC rom and SER is automaticlly applied, then your phone has SER CSC.
You can change that by flashing the SEk firmware and do a factory reset afterwards. That will wipe your phone and change your CSC to SEK.

Here you go. Latest 5.1.1 stock ROM (CSC: SEK) for you to flash ASAP via odin to hopefully restore your CSC to SEK.

After installing android will select the CSC from those available and match it to the one already on the phone.
The only way to change your CSC is to root and then use the Samsung CSC changer .... but why? as the firmware will stay the same.

so it seems that u should root then change CSC ................but i believe that the apps on play store determine your region by internet connection ,and apps which are installed with the fresh rom should be available on play store for free you can simply find then instead of tripping knox......any way if u need help i can help u ....i have changed my CSC code by rooting my device as it's already out of warranty

VDI or XEU

Hi folks
I bought S7 from Vodafone Ireland. And I would expect it to use VDI-regioned firmware (but I did not notice what was the original region, my fault). I rooted it - and OTA upgrades do not work for me any more. SmartSwitch keeps upgrading with XEU region. Why? Should I bother? Should I (how?) use VDI-regioned firmware? How does SmartSwitch decide which region to use (and how to change that)?
I would like to understand what's going on...
VDI is Vodafone Ireland region
XEU is generic UK/Ireland region
Any comments are appreciated.

Hi mate
Most roms are multi CSC and when that is the case and you flash with CSC instead of home_csc (odin) a default CSC is applied in your case seems to be XEU, if you use home _csc you keep whatever csc you had
Should not make a big difference , you change your CSC to whatever you want but you need to be root

I understand that it should not matter much. But still...
What I do not understand is when my CSC changed from VDI to XEU? Why did SmartSwitch do that? I am root. How would I change it back to VDI?
I look at the Phone INFO app, it says:
Original CSC Code: VDI
Firmware CSC Code: XEU
Active CSC Code: XEU
I would like to have VDI/VDI/VDI if it is possible...
PS I do not think I ever flashed with full csc. At least it seems SmartSwitch is always doing home_csc. If so, it means the original CSC was XEU, right?

I got the info off sammobile but they are performing maintenance this weekend and I just wanted to see if anyone else had another link for version number PDA G930FXXS1DQLC and CSC G930FVFG1DQI1.
I dont have the option to use the premium download right now so thought some lovely soal might sort me out

Hi
If you change CSC you will factory reset your phone ( backup) flash the four files AP, BL ,CP and CSC ( not home_csc)
and you will be ready to go , check this thread

OTA Nougat UK

I have an S7 on MM, when are Nougat OTA's are coming to the UK? I don't bother rooting any longer but I am tempted to sideload if Samsung are going to take forever.

Depend on what s7 you have?

Edge G935
I'm on a sim only plan with BT so I own my phone rather than rent, I have spoken to BT who tell me its a Samsung OTA and they have no control, and Samsung merely tell me to to contact my Carrier.
Might end up sideloading!

It's already out. What CSC are you using?
Is the device network locked.
Can you install "Phone Info" app from play store and check which CSC is currently set as your active CSC. The CSC is the one based on which the updates are set.

I have the same UK firmware but with BTU. The difference is given below (Copied from someone on xda). https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s6-edge/help/btu-xeu-t3100911
"I think i worked out the difference between BTU and XEU.
BTU firmware are on phones that come directly from Samsung (unbranded)
XEU firmware are on Sim Free handsets that are generic (unbranded) but not from Samsung"
You can now decide whether to wait for XEU or flash BTU. If you do decide to flash, backup data first and confirm that the active csc is set to BTU for OTA to work.

Is your phone direct from Samsung? Mine is Sim Free, unbranded not from Samsung.

Exu is Ireland band by the looks of it.

I brought it from ebay but I did flash the BTU firmware myself. My phone orignally had multi csc which included BTU and had a german (DBT) csc set as active.
You cannot change the CSC by device but you can flash a firmware with completely different CSC and then flash the BTU one.
I flashed mine with O2U firmware which made it forget the multi csc and then flashed BTU which set the active csc as BTU. I originally flashed the first nougat update release by Samsung and then received the performance update using OTA.
This might make it simple "You are not getting the BTU OTA updates because you don't have BTU CSC but DBT. You flashed BTU Rom but it's a multi CSC Rom and it has inside your original DBT CSC. So your CSC didn't change to BTU...If you want to have BTU CSC so you can get OTA upfates from BTU you have first to flash a rom that it's CSC is not inside the multi CSC you have now, let's say for example a rom with EUR CSC. Then you CSC will change to EUR. After that you can reflash BTU Rom and your CSC will change to BTU...Then you can take the OTA updates from BTU normally..."

Check post number 32, I added the screenshots over there as well.
There is http://updato.com/ as well if you want to download firmware faster (a lot faster than sammobile). I think they are official but have only checked one so far.
Backup the data first, flashing a different csc will factory reset the device.

That's what I kinda done I was on vodafone and preferred to be on btu so I flashed that instead but once I flashed it done wipe cache and data factory reset just to make sure all was ok on another note I kept wifi calling as well.

Please help me with csc code on SM-G920F!!!android 7.0 official

My device is SM-G920F(SEE) yesterday I flashed France Nougat Rom via Odin
Today I flashed my original South East Europe firmware from Sammobile 7.0
But my csc is TPH and I want to make it SEE like before
Please help me
S6 IS not network locked or rooted

TPH and SEE csc are part of multicsc OXX, so flashing SEE firmware will keep TPH csc. You can try to flash XSG firmware or another firmware that isn't included in OXX multicsc then try to flash back SEE and see if csc changes

Thanks I will try that and write my result :-:

I have rooted S6 with CF AutoRoot and csc changed by app csc changer root,now my knox is 0x1 and is there anyway i can make it 0x0 again???my waranty has enden i need it just for me please help
