Hi guys, pretty much straight forward question... I have the S3 SM-R765A (LTE). I don't leave in the US... so basically i cannot use the LTE functionality as in Brazil the operators still does not have implemented eSim to the network.
However, i would like to change the phone number that it shows at "About device".
Is it possible?
Thanks
If you have not been able to activate the eSim how does it even show a number?
The first owner did activate it.
I guess you tried factory reset? Also have you already unlocked it? Saludos

Hey... yes I've tried factory reset - from software and hardware. Old number kept in both methods.
Now that you mentioned about unlocking.... is it possible? Did not find anything related.
Thanks
Hi, yes, it can be unlocked. There is a thread about it.
I contacted AT&as a non customer and applied for the unlock code, received it 48 hs later . However do note that unlocking procedure for the Gear S3 is not as explained by AT&T .

what is the point of unlocking the device? the OP is about changing the eSIM ICCID/existing phone number associated with the device. How can this be done? It does not seem to be actually related to an unlocked device which just lets it work on another carrier.

Thanks for the kind response. I just need some help with the number embedded into the phone. there is no way i can find to change it. I just wanted to edit the esim info. change the number maybe add my own sim. In this particular device that information is hardcoded or something.. need a way t make it editable please
@adnshah
For this kind of adventure... research... SM-R765S SM-R765L SM-R765K from Korea is wrongest choice...
No Combination Firmware nor normal Stock Firmware...
So chance of success is 0... ZERO... NONE...
Best Regards
P.S.:
About eSIM hacking I found only iPhone info... from Chinese users...
So IMHO eSIM crap is at the moment safe enough against "experiments"...

Last year's S7/S7edge had a different model number for each carrier (G935A/T/V/P/R4), but this year they all seem to be using the 955U model with different CSCs for each carrier.
I noticed on SamMobile there's an unbranded firmware available for the G955U with the XAS CSC, what CSC is that? Generic?
The reason I ask this is that because these US variant phones get imported to Pakistan and some people buy them since they're cheaper than the officially sold G955F models here, so if a G955U gets imported here which for example was previously used on T-Mobile in the USA, if one flashes the XAS ROM, will it basically be an unbranded Snapdragon 835 S8+ or is removing the carriers CSC not possible?
All replies will be appreciated.
Cheers

The U version is locked and not able to root. It's used by all USA carriers and they probably made it locked down due to Samsung pay. At some point a root crack will surface but it probably won't be stable

You cannot flash firmware without rooting on this device. That's my point. When you try flashing in Odin, nothing happens. That's why you cannot root or even flash things. Got it? You need root in this case.
I think we are after the same thing; xas is sprint from my understanding. xaa should be the "unlocked" carrier neutral you are looking for. There is a thread in the s8 forum where some people had success flashing parts of the Canadian firmware then refreshing parts of us firmware they had quasi obtained this but I have yet to try
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s8/how-to/rd-carrier-switch-root-snapdragon-t3597473
I read somewhere that only G955f models can change CSC firmware using Odin.
G955U models won't be able to... I could be wrong...
Then again, we won't really know until someone buys the U model and tries it out for themselves.

I've looked through threads of people doing the reverse of this. It's been a few years since I've had an android and was running nexus devices then. What's the process to flash an unlocked firmware on an AT&T locked 968U to the 968U1 firmware (assuming there aren't issues doing it)?
Are there any other pitfalls I need to be aware of prior to doing it other than the wifi calling?
If this is already posted somewhere else, please feel free to point me there. I didn't see any info about going from a carrier locked 968U to unlocked firmware.
Thanks in advance.

I just did this today went from TMB locked one to unlocked (For a family member) mine is unlocked. All went well no problems at all. Just download the U1 Firmware you want to flash and for CSC use home_csc (In ODin) so you can keep your data and probably the wifi calling feature too ( i did that all features are intact). Use the Odin and firmware from Ota and non Ota thread . Enjoy

I flashed the U1 firmware (ATJ3) onto my AT&T Note Ultra, then flashed the Home CSC from the AT&T U firmware. I have VoLTE and WiFi calling.
Help!
Hello all, I have a Note 20 Ultra 5g that is unlocked and I'm looking to flash the original ATT firmware for this device.
Having this unlocked version on Firstnet has been nothing but problems and I don't have access to band 14 or wifi calling.
I see this thread is a little old but if anyone could help me out or send me in the right direction I would greatly appreciate it!
I have rooted some of my older phones several several years ago so I think I could pick this back up pretty quickly. I know over the years things seem to get easier and have probably changed quite a bit since I've last done something like this.
Thanks in advance!

AT&T hasn't released any "official" firmware for the Note 20 series.
Since Samsung firmware is multi CSC, just flash any firmware with the same build number as the AT&T variant and use your AT&T SIM card.
Go to this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/ota-and-non-ota-firmware-for-n986u-and-n986u1.4143833/
Make sure you know what device you have, U or U1. Then grab the appropriate version.
Fir AT&T U devices, N986USQU2DUCA or N986USQU2DUCA will work.
For AT&T U1 devices, N986U1UEU2DUCB is the most recent version.

Hello fellows
So my issue is a bit long so sorry for that
I got this phone 3 days ago
S908N KTC Unlocked ( I live in Middle East and the SIM is working just fine )
I didn't know that this was a branded phone from KTC, I thought it was unbranded KOO
So right now I want to change the firmware to KOO to get rid of the KTC Boot animation and the KTC bloatware/settings
So how should I do that ? Just flash the KOO firmware using Odin? do I need to change csc? is that risky and may trigger Knox and block the phone ?
and after that can I just flash like the middle east firmware ?
Thank you in advance and sorry for taking too long
I'm attaching a screenshot of the CSC and software version of service provider

Thanks for confirming
At least it appears possible to root it and maybe install a custom rom.
I assume that only the rom builders might be able to create a solution for the N version as an installation option in a rom.
However they might not be motivated due to the small number of people having the N versions. Unless of course a few of us agree to contribute in the form of a donation, then maybe a developer can play around and make it happen. What do you think?

Any news on changing KTC to KOO? I rooted SM-S908N, installed app Phone INFO+ Samsung, but don't see a way to change CSC. It just sees KTC region.

if it's snapdragon, then you can try to enable CA using unlock band guide available in S22 forums.
If you are not able to access service menu, you can get it using Samsung Shell Exploit forums in S22.
