Hi! im planning to revert back from Pie to Oreo using Odin. the firmware zip files i downloaded consists of...
AP, BL, CP, CSC, HOME and USERDATA. now my question is do I also need to flash USERDATA?
my note8 is already unlocked to other sim, im afraid that it will be locked again on tmobile sim if i flash a wrong 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...

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.
Hi!
I have a question, I am on the CARHDRom, not the 8.0 but the Note ported ROM from about a month ago.
Can I use ODIN and flash the stock ROM for the G955F with the 4 files to have a "clean" handy without root and with the settings as it came from the factory?
The 4 part ODIN Firmware I have is the AQH3 Firmware. If someone can answer, have I got to use the HOME_CSC or the other CSC file? The Firmware is DBT (for germany) and this is right for me.
Any help needed

You can return your phone to fresh using the stock OEM ROM. Use the stock CSC file, as that will clear our your Note 8 port CSC, which I'd guess you'd have.
Don't use the Home CSC, unless you wish to have your old CSC data remain on the phone.
Thanks a Lot,
No I finally know the exact difference between the two CSC files.

Yes you can flash the 4-file firmware, using AP, BL, CP and CSC_OXM (not HOME_CSC).
Just keep in mind that AQH3 is quite old (August 2017), and the newest firmware available is AQL5 (December 2017).
You should flash that instead.
I want to downgrade my galaxy s7 to a previous security patch in nougat without lose my apps and data. I read that I have to use CSC_HOME file to flash without wipe the smartphone but I don't know if I have to flash the CSC_HOME file of my current rom or the file of the rom that I want to flash (sorry about my english xD)
If you have TWRP, make a full backup first.
The HOME_CSC is part of the zip file when you download the stock firmware, you can get it from sites like sammobile.com and updato.com. It comes with 5 files, AP, BL, CP, CSC and HOME_CSC

hi guys, im having this problem, ive updated my s8+ using odin and official firm, as i have problems when update from 7 to 8 i've flash BL with AP file. So, it booted up and no signal... any idea how to fix it? i havent try flashing BL alone again...
Flash all the images (BL, AP, CP and CSC) to do complete upgrade. CP is the modem firmware. Because you did not flash this part, the newer android firmware is not able to communicate with the modem as it expects the modem to have the newer FW.
Can I flash only the CP file (from original Samsung S8 pie firmware) with Odin (without BL, CSC, AP)?
Just want to update the modem only without losing everything on the phone.

Yes, what you are trying to do is frequently done by Samsung users. You can extract the modem from the firmware and convert it into an Odin flashable .tar.md5 then flash it via Odin in the AP slot.
