Help with Galaxy S6 - Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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.

You can install a firmware of another country if you want.
Take a at this:

It won't go into a boot loop or anything right? Or get network locked or anything?

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.

[Q] Need help on Stock Firmware for SM-G920FD Dual Sim version

Hi,
Update:
Can someone help me find any download source of this firmware,
Galaxy S6 DUOS, SM-G920FD
As I wanted to revert back to my unrooted + clean version of my phone when new update to Lollipop comes.
And if I feel to just reset everything, (sluggish/crawling) performance on my phone, a full flashing of stock firmware will be a good solution for me.
But unfortunately, from SamMobile firmware website, they do not have that kind of firmware on my phone.
Can you please, if any, share your firmware . Any help will be appreciated.
Details:
AP: G920FXXU1AODE
CP: G920FXXU1AODE
CSC: G920FOJV1AODE
Model: SM-G920FD
Android version: 5.0.2
A sigh of relief, i have found an existing post from this, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=61221936&postcount=226, a big thanks to him, its the one Im looking for
However, the firmware I have says that the CSC is from Mauritius , Im looking for CSC flashables from Philippines, FAM, GLB, OLB*, SMA, XTC, XTE
I wonder if someone could share their *CSC only zip file from Philippines, so that I could change mine. Im not sure CSC does have any issues with single sim versus dual sim?
Up this thread. Anyone?
Sammobile stock S6 firmware. Just choose your country.

I can assure you that any countries with SM-G920F is compatible with all international s6 dual phones .
I already tested firmwares of SM-G920F from Afghanistan, France, Egypt etc. It works fine for our Dual Sim version( SM-G920F)
does OTA still works after you changed firmware with a different one from other region?
G920F and G920FD firmware compatibility
There is no compatibility between the stock firmware of s6 (G920F) and s6 duos (g920fd). I tried and messed up with my phone and now got stuck on bootloader.
i suggest you use Z3X to download the firmware for G920FD because till now there is no firmware support at sammobile. i got one from z3x support

Flash a stock SM-G9200 firmware of your carrier or your country

The firmware must match the device variant of the S6 when flashing. Flashing another modem or bootloader will cause a soft brick. I'm not sure how the edge firmware got flashed onto a S6 but flashing another variant of firmware onto a different phone will DEFINITELY cause soft brick.
Then find a SC-05G Firmware. I dont know if sammobile lists that.

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
The G930FD can also use the firmware of the G930F , the F and FD firmware are the same . Philippines do not show in the country distribution list probably is part of a multi CSC firmware.
What does that mean if it's multi CSC?
Hi i would like to know where to download the firmware of my S7 Dual sim XTC (Philippines) or GLB (Globe) . Im new here and i dont know where to download the firmware.
My galaxy s7 is in "Recovery is not seandroid encforcing" i try to root it but now im stuck. and i want to download the firmware but i have no idea what firmware i should download.
please help me. TIA
Look for it on http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/
as long as the model number is the same it will work for your phone

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)
