flash it and find out. worst case scenario is that youd just have to flash your csc back on it. you can flash any Exynos CSC from the same model device from any region. worst case scenario, it cant find whatever group of towers its looking for with that particular csc

should be just fine. CSC flashing is not too bad. CSC will factory reset it, HOME_CSC doesnt but still flashes the CSC you want

Of course they do! :good:
Basically just want to know what would happen if I flashed carrier branded csc only with Odin.
E.g. would my phone refuse to boot, would my phone be carrier branded if it succesfully boots, trip Knox, etc...
Any info welcome - tired of googling the answers or searching XDA forum for answers.

Might have some carrier preinstalled crap but it won't trip KNOX nor prevent the phone from booting

That answered some of my questions, thanks.
Please see screenshot for my mutiCSC firmware. I am running Android 7 but haven't changed CSC since I got the phone in December 2016. I got it with Marshmallow on it. Everytime I upgrade firmware with Odin I select Home CSC so my CSC never changes.
Since the solution is in the CSC (afaik), which CSC do you recommend I flash with Odin? I understand how to flash with Odin if CSC not in my multiCSC firmware (tick re-partition, etc...)
My home network is Vodafone (CSC is XVF which is not part of my CSC).

If i got it right you are not root, right? if you are root there are other ways....
Yes you need the right CSC to make it work , in this case Vodafone XFV.
When you change to a different CSC is recommended to check re partition to adjust to the possible change in partitions
https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-s7/SM-G930F/XFV/download/G930FXXU1DQD2/131635/
Download the firmware and extract the correct CSC from it , if you do not want all the vodafone stuff you could download and unbranded firmware and use the BL ,CP , AP from it and the CSC (XFV) from Vodafone and flash it all together
BACK UP FIRST .......

Yes, no root (for now). Will only root in a year when I get my upgrade on my contract.
Thanks, you basically confirmed what I suspected. Just needed a Jedi to point that out so I have peace of mind. I shall report back... :highfive: :good:

Any way to get VoLTE working with international phone?

Hello
I bought an s8+ from HK which is the dual SIM Snapdragon version (G9550). Using it here in Australia, everything works as expected as it supports all of our bands, however VoLTE does not work. I've read this is because the CSC does not match a local CSC.
Unfortunately there are no Snapdragon versions sold here, hence no firmware with the Aus CSC (XSA) that will support VoLTE (as I read you can't flash the Exynos ROM onto the Snapdragon).
Is there any way I can enable VoLTE? Can I somehow change the CSC without an official ROM? Like go into the G9550 ROM and replace the CSC with the Aus CSC?
The only other region with the Snapdragon is the US from what I can tell, which probably wouldn't enable VoLTE either.
Any advice is appreciated
Thanks.

You may root and then flash your csc zip (or simply replace the CSC files in the custom rom with your CSC files). You should get VoLTE. Download Multi CSC file from here and extract your csc.
I do the same but with India CSC on USA snapdragon models.

Thanks nimms. This is pretty much exactly what I was after, except I cannot root the phone (work required Knox so I can't trip it ). I was hoping I could do somthing like the above, only via Odin, but it sounds like you can't change the CSC without rooting the phone due to making system changes.
Try this code in dialer *#272*imei# and change your csc from there

Hi
As far as I'm concerned, this is not possible without tripping the Knox counter. And if you try flashing the XSA CSC (via Odin), you will definitely soft brick your phone
ims setting. maybe can fix your issue ,just download a hidden app display. then you can open ins setting

Odin won't even flash it, It's pretty hard to soft brick this phone with official tools and firmware.

Yes
Odin won't flash it but if you try to flash it and after that you reboot, you will stuck at download mode. Only by flashing the correct files, will make it boot

Interesting.
Another question...the only difference I've noticed between the 9550 (HK) and 955U (US) is that the US version does not have Band 28 but the HK version does, which we do use here in Aus.
If I flashed a US firmware (which has the same S835 SoC), would I lose Band28, or would the modem still be able to use it?
EDIT: what if I only flashed the CP file (modem), is this interchangeable between the different SoCs? Could I flash the XSA CP (modem) onto another ROM, or will this soft-brick?

My IMS is saying "Not registered" in the about phone. I can't seem to do anything about it, and the hidden menu doesn't give me the option to change it.
IMS setting is located explicitly on "Settings -> Mobile Networks -> Access Point Names"
The best bet you may try is to find a Samsung phone thats currently in VoLTE then copy IMS apn settings onto you phone (you manually input the settings).

Do not enter people astray, ADB Sideload It's not working - error "signature verification failed"
need ROOT
VD2-CSC-S8S8p
MY Galaxy S8+ SM-G9550, SW - G9550ZHU2AQL2
Just download an official ROM (A variant from a country that supports VoLTE) for ur model from sammobile or u might even find it on the xda forum and flash it via odin with Home CSC.
It works well... No need to root n KNOX counter wont be tripped...
PS: Backup data.. They will be lost in the process.
Now we're talking about ADB, not ODIN or TWRP.
Flash via ADB Sideload - not possible. You understand me. Smartphones snapdragon not flash Exynos SW. You can only edit an existing profile CSC or add new CSC.
Example:
my smartphone TGY (snapdragon model SW)
but I live in the region of SER (EXYNOS MODEL SW)

Right, My bad... I missed the international part itself...
But as far as i know, Exynos CSCs also dont go with the Snapdragon CSCs... I could be wrong.

Yes, you have to flash the Firmware with the normal CSC. This will erase your Data, but you can Backup almost everything into the Samsung Cloud, and then restore it.

Is it the mismatch between CSC codes?
Firmware and active CSC codes are different.
Well, you have a phone from Malaysia; while the ROM is French.
You can change both.
To change ROM CSC that's simple. Grab the relevant CSC rom from Sammobile or any other firmware site and install via ODIN. (Most phones have a relevant section/guide in their XDA sub-forum.)
To change device CSC, you need tools and it may not be supported at all. I used "SamKey", you need to buy keys from the company, but it worked. On my Note 10+ it worked, on my Note 9 it worked, on my S10e it worked. On my Note 9 512GB it failed. Basically the tool has to support your specific device variant AND if you are on latest firmware you must wait because they need time to make the tool compatible.

With one CSC firmware i should flash?any suggestion??
Well, I suppose you want to match the device's CSC, so I'd grab the XME one from Sammobile. And you need ODIN to flash. The whole ordeal should not affect your e-fuse/warranty/KNOX status. At least I never managed to trip mine by doing these.
But, I also used mismatch CSC firmware for months if not years at times and it didn't do a thing. Like I didn't notice any difference. I wanted to enable call recording, but I realized it only works if I change device CSC and then also flash the relevant ROM.

but if you want to relock bootloader make sure the CSC is same as the origin. Or you might brick your phone.

SamKey is a paid, third-party software.
- You have to buy credits for it to work. So you need to pay.
- It may or may NOT support your device (they do refund if it's not supported).
- You don't need to be a Hollywood hacker to use it, but if you are really unfamiliar with everything in general - I would recommend not using it.

Question XSG csc

Hi guys i bought a galaxy s22 ultra (S908E/DS) and i saw it now the the csc is for Arab country. i live in Bosnia (Europe) is there any way to change the csc to eux? thansk for infos
I guess you bought device is snapdragon and you needs a CSC which available on;y on exynos. If there is no issue with network then better keep as it is.
Alternatively try flashing HOME_CSC file from stock firmware of EUX, most likely it may get block by odin. In this case only way is to root device and force install EUX CSC, again I don't recommend it if their is no valid reason to change.

yes its a snapdragon model. i have no problems with network yet shoudl i try over odin to flash the whole firmware or just the home csc file? is there any chance to brick the phone because its a snapdragon variant? i ask because of OTA updates?

If you are looking for OTA, you never get Exynos OTA on Snapdragon.
You can not flash full firmware, I'd suggest to flash standalone CSC file in case you have network issue. If you have everything working related to network, I strogly suggest to NOT to mess up. Still you will get OTA when you have new update for arab country.
why i cant flash the full firmware? is it because its a snapdragon or something else? can i mess up my phone when trying to flash the csc via odin and download mode?
