CSC empty (multi csc) after flashing firmware with odin

HI.
I have 935F I bought with the CSC TPA.
I flashed a new firmware with another CSC, and now the CSC of my phone is empty (Recovery says multi-csc).
I flashed via odin AP. Do I need also to flash the CSC file in odin?
What is the solution to get the new CSC?
Thanks!

Hi
what files did you flash? all 4 files?
What did you use home_csc or CSC

I do also have the same doubt. If a flash a BTU firmware over a ZTO one, will I be able to get my csc back to ZTO without root?

I flashed only the AP file. Should I use also the CSC file?

Hi mates
You can change from one csc to another without problem , root is no need but when changing CSC you will factory reset your phone , if you keep same csc you can upgrade firmware without factory reset ( no data loss) when you keep the same csc you use home_csc file ( odin flashing) . if you change CSC , you need to flash the CSC file ( this will factory reset your phone.
@tal_be yes you do, actually is recommended to flash all four files

Yes and yes. Odin 3.12.3
I have done same thing last year on S6 (from TPL to BTU) and there were no problems. But this is strange.

It really is....try a different single CSC firmware ( other than BTU) see if it change and if it does try again with BTU

Flashing only AP File

Hi guys
i got S7 930FD XSG,
Rooted using this Method [Recovery][Exynos] Official TWRP for Galaxy S7 (herolte)
Somehow mistakenly Turned off OEM
Device locked, Reinstalled Stock ROM using "Smart Switch"
Again rooted by above method.
Now OTA updates aren't available.
So I have two question, actually one confusion and one question.
As when i reinstalled ROM using Smart Switch, in Smart Switch it says "930F" instead of 930FD, while is device info it say 930FD.
1. are there same or single system/OS for both version ?
If yes, then can i install ROM of 930F XSG, with same AP and CSC of My device, i am attaching screenshot to share more info...
View attachment 4057525
View attachment 4057526
2. If answer to 1st question is yes and safe, then can i just Flash only AP file, leaving BL, CP, CSC etc ?
I just want to get latest update (either via Odin or OTA)
Regards

No help ??

Have a look in download mode what it says the device is, flash all 4 part of the ROM using ODIN 3.12.3
CSC will reset the phone
HOME_CSC will not
If you are upgrading or downgrading Android versions, use CSC to avoid problems

G930FD uses the exact firmware that G930F uses. So yes, they're the same.
Flash BL, AP, CP and CSC file (not HOME_CSC) if you want to return stock and have OTA updates. Remember this will format your phone. It's later up to you whether you want to root again or just remain on stock.

Galaxy S7 G930F - DBT / Downgrade from Android 7.0 to Android 6.0.1 possible ?

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

thank you can you tell me why it needs the exact same model number when the phone is still the same S7?
1. how about PDA will i need that the long build number will that needs to be the same?

Thanks!

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

Are you sure that you downloaded the correct firmware for your device and Carrier? And where did you get Odin? If you didn't get it from sammobile.com it may be bugged? Never had any issues with sammobile.com - You have Samsung USB Drivers installed on your computer?

ur csc is bad, had the exact same thing a year ago,
just install twrp again
flash csc pack (if there are csc packs for snapdragon variant), flash any csc u want , i did it twice just to be sure
and after that go flash stock firmaware with same csc code
so if you install btu csc then flash the btu firmware with odin afterwards,
dont flash the home_csc .tar in odin just choose the normal csc thats in ur firmware folder
hopefully this works for you too mate

damn, well i dont know what you can do then maybe try combi frimware, should have root acces add see if you can flash that way?
dunno just trying to help

Factory resets and try to flash the rom again I don't think it's a baseband issue like exy.
Make sure what needs to be clicked in Odin from the instructions are clicked too

Still having problems
