[Solved] Samsung "secret" codes not working after nougat - Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers

Hi. Am I the only one who was unpleasantly surprised that the secret codes doesn't work after nougat update? I just flashed via Odin the ROM BTU downloaded from Samfirmware website and used HOME_CSC. Is something that I can do? Or someone else encountered this problem?
LE: Solved
Solution:
I downloaded the Netherlands 7.0 PHN CSC from here with Odin3_v3.12.5 https://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...-odin-t3369431
Flashed the PHN, tested the codes, they worked, then i flashed BTU from Samfirmware and all is working now.

Is *#2683662# working ?

Nevermind. I solved it. I downloaded the Netherlands 7.0 PHN CSC from here with Odin3_v3.12.5 https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s7/how-to/official-stock-firmware-update-odin-t3369431
Flashed the PHN, tested the codes, they worked, then i flashed BTU from Samfirmware and all is working now.

Can someone, Please, help providing me with BGL CSC (it is for Bulgaria - not branded). I have downloaded the latest G930F BGL firmware from SamMobile which is multi-CSC but when I install it, it installs XEO CSC (Poland). If you could help me with advise I would appreciate it.

@rifek4, can I change the CSC with Phone Info app without rooting? I don't want to root.

@rifek4, thank for all your help. I will skip the part with the rooting because I do not want to trigger the knox and I want to use Samsung Pass/Pay, Google Pay etc. I thought that there might be a single BGL CSC file to flash or a button combination like *#272*imei# (which is not working).

i make video fix it. i hope this video can solved your problem https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xj2R_FYRats

That didn't work. What I did do was flash stock Canadian firmware with Odin and i checked and I had BMC CSC which is Canadian Bell. I then rooted and flashed TWRP and reflashed this rom. GPS is working now but this is what my csc says. Is that normal?

Any questions? Just ask me!

New android and CSC change, and when changing between android versions you should always clean install, specially in a beta
Yeah, clean flash between Android versions is recommended. To avoid force closes and bugs. Did anyone download it yet? I wanna hear reviews! Posting more screenshots in the meantime
Has anyone installed this? Knox not triggered?
I want to install but I have doubts... I think I'll wait for the official OTA via the Beta Program.

Singapore S7 Edge Nougat Update

UPDATE: Thanks to @deathst for the link to his downloads of Nougat for the Malaysian N ROMs. If you want to update your Singapore MM phone to Nougat, following the link and instructions there. Remember to use the HOME_CSC to retain your data and Singapore CSC.
GDrive Link
/END UPDATE
So, I bought an international S7 Edge in Singapore last year. Got to say that their updates are incredibly slow.....only recently got the November Security update.
Had an on-line chat with them just now, about when to expect the Nougat update.......April to June!!! Though he did helpfully add "this year".
It really makes me sad that Samsung promise to update phones, then we have to wait maybe half a year to actually get the update.

If you are worried about that. Download the xme version of nougat. The firmware is multicsc region for sea and singapore xsp csc are in it. Flash that.

I got it from Updato.com: http://updato.com/firmware-archive-select-model?r=&v=Nougat(Android+7.0)&q=sm-g935fd&exact=1
the S7 is a great phone but it is my last Samsung product. 2 reasons, the slow updates and the new finger print sensor.
HTC 11, here I come !
And still it will be 7.0, not 7.1
Deleted...
Just a curious question, if I flash the XME version, I will need to flash the AP, BL, CP, and HOME_CSC right?
After flashing, will I still be able to use Samsung Pay in Singapore? If I wish to change back to Singapore version can it be done by flashing with Singapore firmware (7.0 to 6.0.1)?
Thanks for the clarification.
Well that really is the nail in the coffin for me and Samsung, they can _____ others for hundreds while extracting the urine, I wont be party to it again

Question XSG to EGY CSC swap using sim card

Hi all, I have s22 ultra and I bought it from UAE, the CSC is obviously XSG. However I'm using the device now in Egypt and I have an egyptian sim card, I want to change the CSC to EGY so that I can benefit from the options like native call recording which is still working in samsung devices in Egypt
My question is there a way to change the CSC with only using the sim card and without flashing or complicated ways?
I read before that If I have the sim card from certain countries I can change the CSC easily using factory reset, but I don't know the exact steps. So is this still working or is it blocked by Samsung?
You should try out the SamFW app to easely change csc (even without wipe). Backup your phone first of course. If you have test mode it will work. And it's totaly free .
Cheers !

The tip is 100% cut&paste from mine, health to all
And NO you can't always change back the csc because on some csc the test mode is blocked and then SamFW doesn't work. It relies on the test mode. Sometimes it doesn't work on the current csc, sometimes on the new csc. So it may not work on the current csc or it may not work on the new csc. So you can either get stuck on the current csc or you may be stuck on the new csc. If you have a friend with the new csc he can check if test mode works. But he must have the exact device like you. Also they may block the test mode on the new Android 13 that is coming. You never know !
Cheers.

Well this is very informative, thanks and I hope they never lock the test mode
@DaOldMan @Mem_0 thanks guys it worked like a charm, also for EGY the test mode still there so I guess this means I can go back to XSG of I want
One more question though please, I can still see in the service provider software version it's still EGY/EGY,EGY/XSG/XSG. What does those XSGs means and is there any meaning to their existence?

The last XSG can't be changed unless rooted. It's the "original csc" which is the csc where the device was manufactured. Don't remember now the one before last. But the two with the comma between them are the currently used CSC for Sim1 and Sim2 and they are Egy so you will now use Egy csc for the rom.
I have TNL on the end, can I change that to EUX with root? And than revert to stock to receive OTA's?

No need to change the last CSC code. Those last two are just for Samsung to know where you bought it. It doesn't affect updates or how the rom works. This is affected by the first 3 csc codes.
With root you can change everything. But as I said, it will do nothing for you.

Than why people with EUX/EUX/_/EUX get the update as soon as Samsung releases it and I have to wait 3 days, week or even longer?

Haven't checked it myself but they provide virustotal link on their website and it wasn't showing malware

Pretty much all tools like that will have some hits, in at least one database, due to the exploits that they use. Doesn't necessary mean that it's malicious

Why are you looking for USA firmware, for a non USA phone? That's not how it works

I bought it overseas. I thought it would work by using my carrier stock firmware.

The only non USA devices that you can flash USA firmware to are Canadian devices
This is so awesome, i'm so glad that this was just recently posted. I just received my phone a couple days ago with S908U1UES2AVI5. I followed the steps from the OP and immediately was able to download and install the update. It is currently on the black screen with the android updating progressbar, waiting for this to finish.
Edit: Just to note that I have XAG
Edit2: Updated to S908U1UEU2BVJA
Thanks!
has anyone got November security update post ONE UI 5?

Here u go.
But this version didn't worked for me, so I had to use older version.
I threw in a Tmobile simcard and the update went through, then after the install I swapped back my original Sim.

It's really easy. Enable USB debugging in developers mode, plug in phone to your PC and open FRP Tool, write TMB in CSC field and press change CSC. That's it
Ok, seems that it's time to stop waiting and just use what we have on hand here.
Im on factory unlocked S908U1, in Europe, with European SIM.
Build number: SP1A.210812.016.S908U1UES2AVI5
Service provider software version:
SAOMC_SM-S908U1_OYM_XAA_12_0028
XAA/XAA,ATT/ATT
Here I'm puzzled, because I've never used eSIM, and it shows ATT for some reason.
Question for more experienced members here:
Is there any problem for me to update with TMB? If it's all the same, why we are waiting so long updates for unlocked s22?

Change CSC to TMB and you'll get update. Don't forget to remove Sim before changing it
