Hello hello,
i want to flash a new firmware, but it doesn't work.
I have a S7 SM-G930K and want to install a SM-G930F Firmware.
I downloaded all the files (AP,BL,CP,CSC), added phone in download mode to Odin and tried to Flash.
It just starts and stops immediately. (Pit Security Check failed).
Where is the mistake?
Thanks for helping!
Are you sure they have the same hardware?

Yep, same hadware. No difference
Korean versions are slightly different, they DMB etc. I'm not 100% on actual facts. But they have always been slightly different
You probably need to repartition. But I've never tried it.
What should work is flashing AP CSC from F FW and BL CP from K FW
(I have flashed a custom rom made for F variant using TWRP and BL/CP for K variant with Odin, this works 100%)

Thanks for response.
And this would work? Are there any danger?
So I take AP and CSC from the new Firmware and the BL and CP from the Korean Firmware.
Does anyone tried something like this?
Thanks again for help

This whole process can be done using Odin you mean? Just select the files from different ROMs like you mentioned?
Hi,
Sorry for noob question but I don't want to brick my device:
I download the firmware and I have 5 items:

CSC_ORO_G930FORO1APGR_CL8432944_QB10423317_REV00_user_low_ship.tar

AP_G930FXXU1APGS_CL8252943_QB10463901_REV00_user_low_ship.tar
On my phone as you can see in the screenshot I have an older/newer bootloader, it's fine to flash ? and about CSC: wich file should I flash with the HOME or without ?

Hi mate
The bootloader you want to flash is older than the one you have , there use to be no possible to downgrade bootloader before , there is no chance of brick you will just get an error when trying to flash , why you want to downgrade it?
Regarding CSC , use one of the two , if you use CSC you will factory reset your phone , if you use home_csc you will not factory reset your phone
Check this thread , is a nice guide for flashing with Odin

I don't realized that I was downgrading the bootloader beacuse I don't know how Samsung's numbering works.
My target is to flash carrier firmware to get access to Wi-Fi Calling and 4G Voice.
So I flash AP,CP and CSC, right ? without bootloader.

You will get wifi calling and 4G voice if is available in you country /carrier provider

So I downloaded the latest XSA update which came out yesterday on SamMobile, and flashed all four files - only to find that my phone had been wiped, including my /data partition :'(
So my question is - what are the four categories of files to flash in Odin (AP, BL, CSC, HOME)? And which one is responsible for me losing my data?
If you flash CSC will wipe your data. If you flash CSC_HOME will not wipe your data.
AP: is your system partition with recovery and stuff.
BL: your bootloader
CP: your modem
CSC: this is what features you get in some countries or carriers like Wi-Fi Calling.

No, you must always flash the 4 files!
If your CSC is XSA:
AP, BL, CP & HOME_CSC_XSA
Then your data will stay intact!
Note: this can only be done if you stay at the same CSC; if you want to change your CSC for any reason, you need to flash CSC-file of the new country/region (that will reset your device)
Re-partition?
Do I have to enable the "RE-PARTITION" option in ODIN when changing CSC?

Hi
For what I understand all USA ( Snapdragon) versions are compatible , so that would possible BUT to be sure you should ask in the right forum , this is for the international version Exynos
What is the UMS
What is the UMS part of ODIN?
EVERYONE HAVING PROBLEMS TYPING EXIT
Before typing "setsid su<enter>?, type the following: "alias a='exit'<enter>" and THEN type "setsid su<enter>".
IF you do this, you can exit root shell by just "a<enter>", which is cake easy to do.
i made a mistake

DBT region receives firmware with OXM multi-CSC, which also includes TPH CSC (Portugal), so there should not be any issues.
Flash
I loaded the .tar files into Odin.
Auto Reboot is checked.
F.Reset Time is checked.
Everything else is unchecked.
After my phone boots into download mode do i have to press anything on it or i just press start on Odin ?
The only phone that i have flashed was my Galaxy S in 2010 and i haven't done anything like this before.
If I do this, will I receive ota updates in the future?

Use HOME_CSC not CSC, however, if there would be any issue during the upgrade, the storage would show only 16GB and you would have to do a factory reset anyway. If you are going to try to do the upgrade, I strongly recommend backing up your data.

Yes, that's right. Samsung did not update modem firmware or CSC package. Only bootloader and AP (system) were updated.
I flashed Oreo CRB7 final build from Germany and everything is great. But notifications for viber doesnt work as supposed. When i snooze them for only 15 minutes they never appear again and even after 2 hours when i open viber app i have new messages for which i didnt get notification neither sound and stays like that. But when i restart phone everything becomes normal untill i snooze some notification again. I did clean install, clear cash twice and factory reset the phone before Oreo.
Followed the instructions from this site step by step (it was flashing with extracting .lz4 extensions). Help?

Hello,
We have a big issue. We have a custom application that was installed on Samsung Galaxy A6 phones. After upgrading Android the application won't install anymore.
I need to downgrade operating system from Android 10 to Android 8 on these phones, as they came original.
The big issue is I cannot downgrade the bootloader in order to install stock firmware of Android 8 from sammobile.com
Can anybody help me?
Thank you
