sm-j330fn stock rom flash issue - Samsung Galaxy J3 (2017) Questions & Answers

OK, I've been using a modded J3 2017 as an MP3 player when at the gym or whatever. However, I've come to the point where I'm giving it to my son for his first phone to get used to & so on. I'm in England UK & I downloaded the latest android for VOD United Kingdom. I flashed it but app names & so on are in dutch. I've used CSC so it does a factory reset but when it's installed, the default language is dutch & the VOD app & some other system apps are in dutch. I can't for the life of me flash so the apps are in United Kingdom English by default.
Never come across this problem before. So, help needed

Why don't you just flash the stock BTU firmware.

Problem with changing rom

Hello everyone.
I have a problem after changing software.
The factory software my phone was 5.1.1 Italy (vodafon) OMN, I decided to upgrade to version 5.1.1 BTU, so far so good.
But when I want to go back to the 5.1.1 Italy (Vodafone) the CSC Country was changed to SIM/Slovenia.
What should I do to change in Italy/OMN, What software should you download from sammobile?
Flash Italy firmware and do a hard reset

I write you a Private Message! Use Smart Switch
Hi,
The CSC doesn't matter regarding the system itself, it's just the "location" of your device. If you want to have the Italy CSC back though, just flash a firmware from Italy, just like you did with the BTU. I think you can find it in the SamMobile website.
I don't believe that using Smart Switch/Kies will solve your problem, since I believe it'll flash back the stock from your current CSC, which is SIM/Slovenia right?
All the best,

Galaxy S6 Marshmallow

Hello XDA users,
I bought a galaxy S6 two months ago I always try different ROMS and Kernels but now I want to flash Marshmallow.
I have the unlocked version, SM-G920F running XtresTolite and Hacker Kernel on the 5.1.1 bootloader. I live in Israel my phone's service provider is Golan-Telecom it's taken from Cellcom. As if I flash cellcom's firmware for the galaxy s6 it will work on Golan Telecom cuz it's from it.
I want to flash Marshmallow through Odin cuz I don't have the update.
Can I flash any official Marshmalllow on my phone without problems like losing my network like "Not registered on network", if so, please tell me what I can flash and tell me the steps. I already have a TWRP backup.
Thank you. ?
I never had carrier problems while traveling so I guess You won't have any problems either.
1. Dowmload newest rom for Cyprus or United Kingdom from Sammobile.com (or any 6.0.1 that is unbranded).
2. Download odin 10.7.1
2a. Use usb2.0 ports only.
3. Hold power+vol down+home (to boot into odin mode)
4. Unpack the zip file and in AP select Your tar.md5 file.
5. Let it reboot. Enjoy.

The cyprus version looks like the only one that isn't unbranded (UK is vodafone branded, don't know if that's good?). Also the france MM is also unbranded but the PDA version is different from the rest. It's G920FXXU3DPAD instead of G920FXXU3DPB8.
So which one should I choose the unbranded cyprus or the unbranded france one?
I have the Proximus branded version from Belgium btw.

I was always had problems going from XEF to ANY other FW.... I don't suggest to use it.
I hope it takes only few days to get another FW, wich is unbranded.
I flashed XEF french MM to my g920f, no problems at all, spo2 works, everything works, battery is good, camera flawless
Just flash XEF like @Duzzy5 said or get cyprus version. It's Your choice . Both versions are pretty much identical.

Galaxy S7 > Changing ATO Firmware to DBT?

Hi guys,
i got a branding free Galaxy S7 and found out that i got an ATO firmware installed (phone is from Austria) so I am thinking about to upload the same firmware but in DBT (for Germany).
can this be achieved without loosing any data / apps on the phone or will this result in a factory reset?
I only want to have this regarding the OTA Android 7 update around the corner ... I guess its not really needed to be honest...
Thanks for your answers.!
André
Count on factory resetting your phone. Did mine recently and it was worth reinstalling all apps (you can use Samsung backup but it restores not all settings within all apps) just love the new nougat ?

The change you need to have done is the CSC, this can be done by flashing your desired locations CSC by flashing it through Odin while phone is on download mode. You can find CSC for your desired firmware/location by browsing on SamMobile.
When the firmware zip downloads; extract it and then when on Odin program on your PC, click on the CSC button and locate the file called 'HOME_CSC'
The reason to why you choose Home CSC is because it will keep all your data on your phone.
Good luck and tell me how it goes

Thanks mate!
Is there any well working tool for backing up data like contacts/messages/pictures just for the worst scenario?
I am aware that thate from APPs might be an issue but it like a full factory reset then ...
André
I am also stuck to the ATO open austria firmware and wondering WHY nearly all carriers here in austria got the nougat update but the open austria did not?? I thought the carriers will update later because they have to modify the firmware with their apps and logos etc..
i install btu and today i see that vodafone spain has nougat, do you know if i install vodafone spain and install super stock 2.2.0 is gonna work.

Wrong carrier apps S7 Oreo

Hello peeps, i have installed the latest firmware for the SM-G930F from Belgium (G930FXXS3ERL4_G930FVFG3ERJF_PRO) but somehow the carrier apps from vodafone get installed when booting into the system even though the Proximus app should be installed... I have tried to reinstall it multiple time and still have the same outcome? had this problem with my S6 Edge in the past too but i fixed it somehow (I didn't fix it but it fixed itself tho XD)

There is only one reason this happens, the firmware is not an unbranded international version.
Complete waste of time messing about with Belgian, French,German version etc just Download the BTU firmware from sammobile or direct from Samsung. It's says United Kingdom but it's basically western Europe unbranded.

So if i download and install the BTU version what will be different rom the belgian software? Like i remember with my s4 i used to install BTU firmware all the time because there wasn't one for belgium, but didn't notice anything different with my sim card... so i hope this will be the same that i still have the functionallity like i had before i flashed custom roms

The BTU stock holds all the csc codes, base bands, network functions for all of the European region which means once it connects to the network in your country, it automatically detects which system files to use so you "don't notice anything different" than if you had installed country specific like Belgian.
There is always one stock which hold everything for a region, in Europe its the UK unbranded, generic, international, BTU version. It works everywhere in Europe.
okay so i've installed the btu version and it worked just fine, except it was a little slower and idk why. but when i tried to use mobile networks it wouldn't work so i checked my apn settings and my provider wasn't in there so i had to add it manually wich for me turned into an even slower experience on my phone... I really don't know what i did wrong or what happend, so is it possible to get a detailed instruction to flash the stock oreo rom? and also a how to for rooting stock oreo with magisk? because my guess would be that something went wrong when rooting

Hello well unfortunately Belgium isn't important enough country to have your own unbranded stock firmware.
APN settings should install automatically when you connect to mobile network in your country.
There is a specific guide to follow to root S7 on Oreo, please google and follow it exactly.
Also BTU is a stock Oreo ROM.

Should I change CSC?

Hi, I bought an S10e in UK from OnBuy (brand new) and when I go into settings-> about phone it says United Arab Emirates. And from there if I go to software information, under the Service provider it says XSG/XEU, XEH/XSG (I also have a hungarian sim). Now I don't know much about CSC but somewhere i read that if my CSC code doesn't match with the country I live in then I will get no updates. However when I first booted up the phone (with my hungarian sim) and checked for updates it downloaded the latest update. Im a bit confused Should I change the CSC? If yes, why?
Thank you
