Hi everyone,
I have an O2 UK branded Galaxy Tab 2 P5100 and I was thinking of flashing the BTU firmware from sammobile. I have never done any flashing in my life before and I'm sure there are many guides out there that can help but I just want to know if when flashing using odin do I need to put the firmware file in both PDA/AP and CSC box?
Many thanks,
Tarek
I have been searching around and haven't fond any clear answers around these questions. I have an exynos S7 and I want to change my CSC to the XSA (Australia version)
My understanding is the way to change CSC is to flash a stock firmware with the CSC you want.
- If I flash the stock rom will it wipe my data? Do I need to have "repartition" unticked to keep my data?
- Do I have to flash a newer firmware or can i flash the same/earlier firmware?
- In fact, can I just flash the XSA CSC without the rest of the firmware?
Many thanks to anyone who can help.
You don't need to flash stock firmware to get another CSC, just download the specific CSC zip flashable and flash or use Multi CSC flasher via TWRP
Thanks but I should have clarified, I want to keep knox untripped.
Do you know if stock rom flash with a new csc will cause a wipe?

Hi
No all countries CSC are available yet , probably in the next weeks they may that is why there are not many choices yet
Flashing CSC thru Odin on top of rom.....not to sure about that
Did you check his thread about CSC? , hi has a tool to add different csc's maybe your country is already there ( pick the one for Nougat
If is not there and you must have it ....i would flash a stock rom with the desire CSC , install recovery again , flash Superman rom again and this time tell to keep your current csc
Remember if you use a MM csc on a N firmware some thing may not work like VoLTE
I just Odin flashed home csc from the latest sample for my carrier .... the latest I had already previously used on stock b4 flashing superman rom.
Hello,
Is it possible to downgrade from Nougat back to Marshmellow without triggering Knox ?
I upgraded my S7 via OTA Update. Now i have big trouble with the GPS indoors while playing Pokemon Go. The location via wifi seems messed up in 7.0. On 6.0.1 i never had problems.
Can i just flash the latest 6.0.1 (G930FDBT1BPH2) via Odin ? Or can there be a problem with the Bootloader which could be upgraded during the 7.0 Update ?
Does this procedure trigger Knox ? I want to keep the phone on Stock Firmware without rooting oder custom Firmware.
I downloaded the 6.0.1 from updateo with the following files :
AP_G930FXXU1BPLB_CL9689434_QB11912457_REV00_user_low_ship.tar.md5
BL_G930FXXU1BPLB_CL9689434_QB11912457_REV00_user_low_ship.tar.md5
CP_G930FXXU1BPJJ_CL9519568_QB11350220_REV00_user_low_ship.tar.md5
CSC_DBT_G930FDBT1BPH2_CL8887037_QB10698583_REV00_user_low_ship.tar.md5
HOME_CSC_DBT_G930FDBT1BPH2_CL8887037_QB10698583_REV00_user_low_ship.tar.md5
Can i just fire up Odin and put these files according the first letters in the fields ?
Greetings,
Chris
Yea just flash with ODIN
CSC = Reset (You'll need to choose this one to downgrade as 7.0 apps are not compatible with 6.0)
HOME_CSC = No reset
Only flashing custom will trip knox, flashing stock with ODIN will not trip it

Thank you
Just for my safety
I need the first 4 files. Put em into the 4 fields in Odin 3.11.1 including BL - Bootloader (This part ist the most fear for me ) and flash them with "F-Reset Time" and "Auto Reboot" selected ?
After rebooting the phone a Full wipe is a good thing, i think.

Use ODIN 3.12.3 or newer, that version is too old
3.12.7
Code:
https://mega.nz/#!jUgRiTSa!fnAVwr7yFi4dlPk4V0oQ5DuoFe3iiG0jH-ws91IHOPc
Flash AP, BL, CP and CSC
The phone will automatically factory reset after the flash so no need to wipe again
DO NOT change anything in ODIN, leave everything as it is

Thank you for your Help. I´ll do it exact this way
Hello I am very new to this and like to know if i can downgrade too from android 7 if there is a security path already applied to the phone? Can I also just flash it with Odin stock rom?
Do I need the exact build number or just model number? And does model number needs to be the same so I got SM g930v? Can I flash from different country that is not G930V but G930F
And would the PDA number also need to match? Thanks for helping!

You cannot flash a G930F firmware on a G930V device. They have different hardware. You need to flash G930V firmware

Can you explain why the hardware is different?
And with Flashing using ODIN do I only need the model number and nothing else?

The USA variants use a qualcomm chipper, the G930F (international model) uses an exynos chipper. You will end up bricking it by trying to flash incompatible firmware
Hello,
last days I flashed the new Oreo firmware for my SM-G930F, available now only for UK (BTU CSC code). I used the last odin version 3.13.1. When the firmware was flashed, after factory recet I received my old CSC code (XEO). I wrote in forums, that if I want to changthe default CSC I have to set in odin settings Repartition. So yesterday evening I decided to reflash the firmware, but now with ticked Repartiotion. When I cklicked on Start, afer one two seconds red Fail windows has been shown. Why I can't flash the firmware with set Repartition? Does somebody have an idea what went wrong?
Reasons why I want to change the CSC code by default from XEO to BTU is that BTU receives the updates at the earliest!

BTU contains XEU as it is Multi-CSC, you cannot switch between them directly
You need to flash a different region CSC not included in BTU first, then flash BTU

Which for example? Can I use one of the following: VOD or VDI? Both of them have available Oreo firmwares. Oherwise I have to downgrade to Nougat (by the way, how can I downgrade using odin?)

One with the same bootloader version as you are running, probably version 2
You can tell by this number in the firmware version
G930FXXU2ERD5
Have a look in download mode for B:2 or whatever number it says and match to the firmware
Downgrade the same way you upgrade, but use ODIN 3.12.7 for Nougat
Do not flash the VOD (vodafone) Oreo, it is bricking devices, very broken, only flash BTU Oreo

Exactly the same as XEO is also included in the BTU CSC

What about flashing the same firmware with odin 3.13.1, but with ticked repartition in the option? This, regarding the comments in sammobile forum works. But for me doesn't. Maybe for Oreo it doesn't work or there is something specifically to do?
I can't catch your proposal for flashing the other firmware. Can you tell me which exactly firmware I have to flash first, later on to receive BTU Oreo CSC as default?

When I flash first MTL CSC android 7 and then flash oreo BTU, will it change my CSC code from XEO to BTU?
