Hi, I have an italian S7 edge, it was brand Vodafone Italy but I flashed an ITV no brand firmware to remove brand.
My phone has the pink line on the display so I need to repair in warranty. I need to restore all stock and original firmware.
So, I downloaded the latest Vodafone Italy firmware and flashed. It's a multi-CSC and it has a wrong CSC because it's in German language. The correct CSC is OMN but is VD2.
I need to resolve without root because my firmware needs to be original, stock and with KNOX 0.
Is that possible?
Tried the string *#272*IMEI# but not works.
Thank you!
if Knox is still 0x0 then they should fix it, if still on warranty I don't think that the CSC you have now, should make a difference.

Hello everyone.
I have a problem after changing software.
The factory software my phone was 5.1.1 Italy (vodafon) OMN, I decided to upgrade to version 5.1.1 BTU, so far so good.
But when I want to go back to the 5.1.1 Italy (Vodafone) the CSC Country was changed to SIM/Slovenia.
What should I do to change in Italy/OMN, What software should you download from sammobile?
Flash Italy firmware and do a hard reset

I write you a Private Message! Use Smart Switch
Hi,
The CSC doesn't matter regarding the system itself, it's just the "location" of your device. If you want to have the Italy CSC back though, just flash a firmware from Italy, just like you did with the BTU. I think you can find it in the SamMobile website.
I don't believe that using Smart Switch/Kies will solve your problem, since I believe it'll flash back the stock from your current CSC, which is SIM/Slovenia right?
All the best,

Hi,
Sorry, I didn't understand your problem at first . I have searched and came across this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s6-edge/help/change-csc-to-btu-to-vod-flash-stock-t3275067. Please let me know if the problem was solved.

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?

Hi
I would think so XEU was probably the original CSC

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 mate
That is not that ease because of the multi csc firmwares read here
What phone do you have?
Try flashing android n fw and add singapore csc.
I hp was sg also XD waiting for public release
you should be able to change the CSC by booting into recovery and doing a factory reset this will set it to the default rom's csc.
Hello fellas,
I have just flashed latest stock firmware, and couldn't help noticing there was no Samsung Pay or Android Pay app.
When attempting to access both items through Google Play Store, it says my device is not compatible with the version available. How come this is possible? I can't think that the S7 has been outed of Samsung Pay, there has to be something else.
Could it be a problem with the CSC? My region code is ARO (Argentina Unbranded), but after checking the app Phone Info, I have realized that the CSC Installed belongs to TTT (Trinidad y Tobago) and not my region. This always happen when flashing CSC, since it's a multi-CSC, it randomly selects a region. If anyone knows a way of flashing the proper CSC through ODIN, that would be awesome.
Thanks!

Hi
Download the firmware you want, extract BL , CP and AP , now download the firmware for you country /carrier , extract from it the CSC file
not home_csc , and flash the BL , CP, AP from the first firmware with the CSC from your country
BAckup this will factory reset your phone

Thanks for replying.
The firmware I want is the one that comes with the ARO package, the problem is that such package also includes a multi-country CSC. Among those there is this ARO region I'm needing. My device is Unbranded, I won't install a CSC from a carrier.
Also, I don't have root and I'm not planning to have it either.

Hi
Sorry I read your first post again
Samsung Pay will not work again after you root your phone , if knox is set 0x1 there is no chance to make it work
Android pay is possible if knox is set but firmware is official ( no root) and if the flashed firmware (CSC) has that option
Is ARO part of the multi CSC you flashed with TTT?
You need a CSC that has Android pay , do you remember what CSC you had when it worked?

BTU (UK) i think it works , if your carrier at home offers the service you can flash any unbranded firmware (BL, CP andAP) with the CSC from your carrier
That way you can have unbranded firmware plus you carrier CSC

Yes it does, but some additional kernel modifications are still required for Knox to work. So stock firmware isn't fooled. Most custom s7 kernels have them though.
Hey,
I have a G955F, but the carrier i got it from still hasnt released Oreo, all the others in the country did.
I was wondering if i do flash the orig samsung firmware, if my CSC will change and if it does what are the downsides to it?
My firmware CSC is MET and the CSC country is Ireland/IE .
And if i install a sim free FW like the orig samsung one, or the one from Vodafone Ireland and afterwards i install the MET one when they release Oreo, would the CSC change back and have warranty intact?
Thank you.

Yes, you can try flash the firmware from another operator of ireland like three or vodafone. If you use any carrier specific things like VoIP or VoLTE, these will not work with another csc, as long as you just want sms/call/internet and don't care that there are some apps from three/vodafone installed, you can download a firmware from here
Your CSC then will change to either 3IE or VDI which, stated above, should not make any problem.
And yes if you flash MET when it's released you go back to your og CSC.
In terms of warranty it is always intact. Changig the CSC does not trigger knox 0x1. (The indicator for samsung if warranty is void or not) But you can ignore that, as in EU countrys this doesn't matter (read here under "Legality")
