What is OXM Multi-CSC Firmware?OXM is a superset that beholds numerous sub-CSCs within itself. If your Samsung device has a multi CSC firmware then you could easily change the region. With that said, the OXM Multi CSC firmware has the following CSC (the below list might be incomplete, let me know the missing CSCs and I’ll expand this list):

Hey all, SD owner of S22U.
Just to let you know, I blindly flashed AVBF with Odin with the old mentality that 'OXM' firmware is multi-CSC with another region's AVBF firmware - where my region (XSA or OPS) was still on the AVA (January) firmware. Using HOME_CSC (didn't wipe) all flashed 100% and phone working 100%. So OXM from any region appears to be multi csc and you don't have to wait till your Telco releases the update (in my case could be months before my Telco releases updates/security patches). Correct me if I'm wrong please - but again - all went well and my phone has all functionality as it did before. Now waiting for the new update AVC6 to release for the SD S22 so I can update manually again. Also, thanks to @AwesomeARC for starting this thread - was waiting for this and will be very handy

Hey
Thanks for the heads up. I was thinking of doing the same but was not sure. Thi is my first Snapdragon device and was not sure about the OXM. Reason I created this thread.
So if I take the latest Firmware from Exynos 908B OXM region, and flash it will work just fine?

Y don't u just use the avbf firmware for the 908e and save the risk. If u look on sammobile there is quite a few to choose from. I personally use xsg which is uae. Use frija to download that. Works great

Flashing S908B on S908E will not work. Odin will fail during bootloader and if other components gets flashed before this, you will have non booted device(Soft bricked). Also no needs to mix up S908B link in OP, just stick this thread to S908E subject.
Also some suggestion for OP
You should organise OP for some Tool like Frija, Odin

No, I think you guys must have misunderstood. I would still/only flash S908e firmware, but for example: I'm in Aus and there's no 'new' update for XSA (or OPS - my carrier).
I searched Samsung firmware at the time and found another region had AVBF (S908e) with March sec patch whereas mine was still showing 'no update' for my region.
This other region (can't remember which csc it was) had same lettering on the file 'XXU1OXM'. Downloaded that file and on unzip ensured CSC/Home_CSC was 'OXM'.
This suggested to me that, like the Exynos S21 I had, that the ROMs would be multi-csc for the SD version of the S22 (probably for all variants of the new range).
Flashed away with Odin and all successful. Phone updated to new software and sec patch and I don't have to wait for months before my carrier decides to push the update through.
Therefore, like the Exynos versions, you can flash SD with another S908e region's firmware so long as the files are XXU1OXM and not anything else.... Again, happy to be corrected....

Just to support this, my experiences are as follows:
Flashing other regions' firmwares for the same model (ie. S908E as per the thread title), that are within the same multi-CSC (eg. OXM), should not cause any issues. You will also retain your local CSC unless you take specific actions to alter this (don't bother). You can indeed get the update sooner through this method without issue.
My experience is that this also retains KNOX and factory status. No concerns at all. You should continue to receive OTAs as they are released to your local CSC.
If you flash HOME_CSC_OXM, your data should also remain intact.
Attempting to flash a differing model firmware will fail and cause a bootloop. Don't do this. If you do, flash the correct model firmware to rectify.
Just my prior experiences, mostly from previous devices. Presumably this remains true to date.

I have an S7 on MM, when are Nougat OTA's are coming to the UK? I don't bother rooting any longer but I am tempted to sideload if Samsung are going to take forever.
Depend on what s7 you have?
Edge G935
I'm on a sim only plan with BT so I own my phone rather than rent, I have spoken to BT who tell me its a Samsung OTA and they have no control, and Samsung merely tell me to to contact my Carrier.
Might end up sideloading!
It's already out. What CSC are you using?
Is the device network locked.
Can you install "Phone Info" app from play store and check which CSC is currently set as your active CSC. The CSC is the one based on which the updates are set.

I have the same UK firmware but with BTU. The difference is given below (Copied from someone on xda). https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s6-edge/help/btu-xeu-t3100911
"I think i worked out the difference between BTU and XEU.
BTU firmware are on phones that come directly from Samsung (unbranded)
XEU firmware are on Sim Free handsets that are generic (unbranded) but not from Samsung"
You can now decide whether to wait for XEU or flash BTU. If you do decide to flash, backup data first and confirm that the active csc is set to BTU for OTA to work.

I brought it from ebay but I did flash the BTU firmware myself. My phone orignally had multi csc which included BTU and had a german (DBT) csc set as active.
You cannot change the CSC by device but you can flash a firmware with completely different CSC and then flash the BTU one.
I flashed mine with O2U firmware which made it forget the multi csc and then flashed BTU which set the active csc as BTU. I originally flashed the first nougat update release by Samsung and then received the performance update using OTA.
This might make it simple "You are not getting the BTU OTA updates because you don't have BTU CSC but DBT. You flashed BTU Rom but it's a multi CSC Rom and it has inside your original DBT CSC. So your CSC didn't change to BTU...If you want to have BTU CSC so you can get OTA upfates from BTU you have first to flash a rom that it's CSC is not inside the multi CSC you have now, let's say for example a rom with EUR CSC. Then you CSC will change to EUR. After that you can reflash BTU Rom and your CSC will change to BTU...Then you can take the OTA updates from BTU normally..."

Check post number 32, I added the screenshots over there as well.
There is http://updato.com/ as well if you want to download firmware faster (a lot faster than sammobile). I think they are official but have only checked one so far.
Backup the data first, flashing a different csc will factory reset the device.
That's what I kinda done I was on vodafone and preferred to be on btu so I flashed that instead but once I flashed it done wipe cache and data factory reset just to make sure all was ok on another note I kept wifi calling as well.
Hello.
Is it possible to use Nougat UK firmware G930FXXU1DPLT for my unlocked german phone. It currently has G930FXXU1BPLB. The phone CSC is DBT with CSC country of Germany/DE. Country of Origin: made in Vietnam.
I did search but can't confirm from what I've read so far.
Thank you.
Yes you can just did it some hours ago and it's working like a charm
Ok, I flashed nougat and all went well.
I used the lasted firmware from here: http://updato.com/firmware-archive-select-model?record=38264056ECF011E69215FA163EE8F90B

However, my csc is still DBT instead of BTU. I checked "re-partition" per instructions here: https://www.sammobile.com/forum/showthread.php?t=30800
How do I get BTU to stick? I even tried going into recovery and wiping and factory resetting. It didn't work.
Why do you ant BTU?
The BTU is a Multi-CSC which also beside others include the DBT-CSC.
I think soon we will have the offical Nougat DBT then you might need to flash again with Odin, if you want to have OTA-Updates.
Also you do not have to enable "Re-Partition". Just flash with the normal CSC (not the HOME_CSC if you want to change your CSC) but keep in mind that with flashing the normal CSC all data on the internal ROM is lost.

I wanted BTU because I've read on several posts that I won't receive OTA updates if CSC is crossed with BTU and DBT. I also wanted samsung apps to stop defaulting to Deutschland since I can't read it.
Thanks again.

I have a DBT S7 and I flashed the BTU version as well. Just select Home CSC and it will keep all your data saved. If you select CSC_ it will erase the phone. Also the apps are in German based on location. You will need a VPN to use some apps in English
Question:
Firmware for Germany has now been released. Should I now download the Germany firmware and replace my BTU (UK) firmware? Or since only the CSC file seem to be different, should I Odin just the CSC file?
Hi all,
I'm back to Samsung after a number of years away at HTC and LG! Last Samsung was an S2 and so I've used Odin, reflashed firmwares, rooted etc. before so know my way around this stuff in a general sense.
I got an S7 from CEX recently to replace my broken LG G3 but the firmware on it seems to be a slightly older / foreign one and I want to get onto a clean UK / EU firmware, so I can keep stem with OTAs that I see friends' S7's receiving. My current firmware is baseband G930FXXU1BPJE, build number G930FXXU1ZPK4.
I've looked on SAMMobile and can see two options for UK unbranded; XEU and BTU. So my first question is what one should I use and what the difference is?
Secondly, when I use Odin to flash whichever one is correct, will I need to repartition? Or will factory resetting after flash be enough to properly correct the CSC?
Finally, will this still show up as an 'untampered' phone, and receive OTA correctly?
Thanks for the help.
XEU has the most updated firmware atm with a February security patch, where BTU is still on January afaik, both unbranded UK firmwares
If you flash them using CSC (Not HOME_CSC) which will reset the phone and change CSC, then you will remain KNOX 0x0 and receive OTAs for whichever CSC you choose, XEU or BTU
No need to repartition
I did read something about needing to flash to another CSC supported by the current CSC on your phone atm (Multi CSC) before flashing to the one you want to change to, but not sure about that, I've only ever switched between BTU and XEU, and BTU is multi CSC containing XEU too

Hello, did you have any luck changing your CSC without Re-Partitioning ?
Im in the same situation right now (DDE CSC, still on 6.0.1) and I am kinda scared after reading so many posts where people bricked their phones.
I wan't to flash DBT (Germany) OEM software from Sammobile to my S8+ G955F model which is on SEE region. Is it OK? I forgotten about these regions since I haven't flashed different region since S5.
I wan't to completely change software. From SEE to DBT. Should I install AP and PDA or AP,BL,CP,CSC OXM,Home CSC OXM? I want to change modem firmware as well. Everything I see this much files first time. Dont know except AP and PDA these other what they are for. Can someone tell me?

2 words: NOT POSSIBLE...
The SEE CSC is part of the Multi-CSC OXM; DBT is also part of the Multi-CSC OXM
When you flash the DBT firmware, your CSC will stay SEE because both CSC's are included in the OXM MultiCSC, and the product-code of your device is SEE (you can't change that)...
All European countries (and some African & Asian) are part of the Multi-CSC OXM; all firmware for those countries are the same (also modem!)
When you flash in Odin, 3.12.3, you must flash 4 files:
AP BL CP & CSC_OXM (this will reset your device) or HOME_CSC_OXM (data will stay intact)
Hi
I raised this in another thread but realised the title might be misleading so I have deleted that post and ask it here.
I have at last just received my Note 20 Ultra SM-N9860. I see it is the Taiwanese BRI version.
I have tried to read as much as I can and it appears that it may be a good idea to switch to the TGY firmware as there may be some benefits over BRI.
If I understand correctly, I can do this via Odin using all the elements (using CSC rather than Home_CSC). I know this will do a factory reset but that is no problem as I have not set the phone up yet.
If I do that, I will not trip Knox and I will get TGY OTA updates in future.
Have I understood that all correctly? Have I missed anything?
Sorry but I also have another question. What is the difference between using Odin to change the complete firmware to TGY and using Samkey just to change the CSC? All the files between BRI and TGY appear to be identical, other than the CSC. Does it make a difference over whether I get the TGY OTA updates if I only change the CSC?
Is there a disadvantage to using Odin as otherwise why do people pay Samkey when they could just use Odin for free?
Changing BRI to TGY is safe. But you will not have any benefits. Instead of this, changing to CHC gives you voice recorder etc. This operation keeps knox intact as well (actually, knox is tripped only in case of bootloader unlocked to load non-Samsung signed images).
Samkey will not change CSC in your case (you'll loose your money), so the Odin is the only way.

How is the CSC selected in Odin if Frija downloads the exact same CSC files for both BRI and TGY inputs??
