You CANNOT flash 955N firmware to a 955F or vice-versa!

You seem to know a lot about firmware, do you know what is ''user data'' in firmware ?

I would try too, but we need a pit ...

I highly doubt this is possible although on paper the only difference is the amount of RAM. The G955N is actually the Korean variant so surely you want to stick with that rather than trying to flash a European build either way.

I don't own either, but I don't think the two support the same bands. I'd be wary of flashing.

G920F - How to find out the firmware country? (to flash a new one)

Hi guys,
I wanted to flash the new firmware I have a G920F (firmware G920FXXU3COI9). I bought it online on craigslist, so I don't know where this one come from (maybe Africa, it came with some weird built in apps.

If I'm not mistaken, you should be able to download it here. You may want to check your baseband and all that good stuff, but this is supposedly for the India variant G930FD.

[REQUEST] Indian CSC for galaxy S6 for Nougat.

Can anyone extract Indian CSC compatible with Galaxy S6 on 7.0 2018 builds so that i can use voLTE in my phone.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s6/general/guide-enable-volte-s6-sm-g920f-root-6-0-t3593938
This is my thread in which voLTE was working on 7.0 but with older builds ( 2017 builds ). Now when i updated my phone and use the same procedure i am unable to achieve what i want. The file gets flashed successfully without any error but nothing changes. CSC does not change to INS or INU ( looked by using Phone Info ).
So can anyone please extract the CSC and upload it.
Thanks.
@mustakim_1994 Hi, try using this Flashable CSC Installer. You can flash it with TWRP. I got VoLTE working. (Carrier is o2 DE / DBT is my CSC)

If I only have to extract it and then make a flashable zip I can do that for you.

Flashing a firmware for a different country

Hello, 2 months ago i bough a galaxy s10e second hand. Its in perfect condition but i've noticed that its running a french frimware https://www.sammobile.com/samsung/galaxy-s10e/firmware/SM-G970F/BOG/download/G970FXXU4CTC9/330223/
And im still on the April patch...
So my question is can i download this firmware
https://www.sammobile.com/samsung/galaxy-s10e/firmware/SM-G970F/BGL/download/G970FXXS6CTE6/342933/ (im from Bulgaria)
