Hello everyone,
I live in France and I have a problem. The CSC of my SM-G996B is blocked on EUX so I don't have the firmware update and the Samsung members don't work. I have my sim card in the phone but no update to XEF is proposed to me (even after complete reset and multiple restarts).I have my sim card in the phone but no update to XEF is offered (even after a complete reset and multiple reboots). Does anyone have a solution to force the update of my csc or simply to make the update of the CSC appear because no provider update page for 1 month ? I have to update each time via Odin (for example I just switched to One UI 4.1 with march patches XEF yesterday) taking the XEF fw but since it's multi csc it makes the update without switching to XEF.
Yhank you in advance
Only way is to use Samkey, buy a few points (it isn't free) and change CSC that way. I did it on mine (with points from eBay, not recommended as it might get your phone blacklisted on Samkey) which was TMobile locked but now runs PHN (unlocked Netherlands) fine with all Vodafone services working, volte/vowifi and I get Vodafone software updates over ota as well.

Hi
I have a S7 G930F (single sim) version. It has an XSG firmware from the UAE (Phone is from Dubai).
I'm trying to work out how samsung pay will work when available in the UK. I can access the app now without any issues.
Would it detect that I'm not on a BTU (UK) firmware and not let Samsung pay work or is it depended on if I am using a UK Sim etc?
I guess the easy answer to this would be ' Has anyone used their current european G930/G935 in the US on Samsung Pay with a US sim card and had it work?
I can't flash BTU firmware and CSC as Samsung Pay will only ever work on the original CSC and even when installing new firmware and CSC from another region is keeps a log of the original CSC on the phone and detects a modification.
My know is still 0x0 by the way as I've only used Odin with stock firmware.
Can anyone provide a very detail guide on how to change from Three UK firmware to BTU on Galaxy S8+ as Three UK hasn't updated Galaxy S8+ since April. I feel very left out at the moment. I would like to change without losing data. Is there a way of doing this?

Yeah I hate this too so out of date, but I am seeing three firmware appearing on sammobile everywhere else apart from united kingdom. I was actually thinking of flashing the three firmware at one stage as I'm missing out on volte but having more up to date firmware is top priority for me
I would like to keep WiFi calling. Even though I haven't used it once. Why is Three behaving like this. Did you flash BTU version after being fed up with Three lack of updates.

NOT possible...
BTU is part of the Multi-CSC OXM where MANY European CSC's are included.
If you download for i.e. the BTU-firmware, that'll be the same firmware as for i.e. PHN (Netherlands).
You'll have to flash BL CP AP & CSC_OXM on your phone; your phone will be resetted afterwards.
The DEFAULT CSC for OXM is XEU. Your phone "sees", that an UK-SIM is included and will "switch" to the best CSC for your device, which is in this case XEU. You won't get BTU on your device...
I'll lose my data with XEU won't I

If you change your CSC, you'll ALWAYS lose your data...
Also worth noting that to keep Volte/WiFi Calling you would need to use the Three Firmware (H3G) as the OXM CSC firmware does not enable it.
I'm a Three UK customer and have tried many times to get Volte/WiFi calling working on XEU (OXM Multi CSC) with no luck. Only works when I use H3G firmware but I hate the crappy branding so sacrificed Volte for no branding.
I flashed from vodafone uk to btu but as someone said you get xeu. Updates are fast I had 3 already.

I flashed the OXM firmware from henklbr's thread, but used HOME_CSC from the last H3G firmware to keep WiFi callling

Just need to wait until we get August update. Probably won't be till November/ December. I hope when Beta for Android O is released. We will be able to join in on the excitement
Hi there.
I got this new S10E from Three network I UK. Phone is factory unlocked.
Because three is always a bit behind with updates I decided to flash BTU firmware on it. I downloaded latest BTU and after flashing it didn't show BTU, BTU, BTU. Instead it showed DBT, DBT, DBT/H3G.
I downloaded another XEU firmware but is was showing the same as above after flashing.
Once I've put the sim card in it changed to XEU/XEU, BTU/H3G.
I'm totally confused.
Is there a way to get BTU, BTU, BTU without root?
Or does it really matter now? Will I be getting XEU updates instead of H3G?
Thanks
Hi, I also live in the UK and have an unlocked phone from OnBuy and I'm on XSG which also slow as hell in updates. But since my phone is multi CSC and I think yours too, you can flash roms as I did twice with German updates. It doesn't really matters what csc you have and as far as I know you can't change csc anymore. (someone correct me if I'm wrong please)
Hope this helps
Hello guys!
I have Note 20 Ultra (SM-N986B/DS). I changed my CSC from BGL (Bulgaria) to THL (Thailand), to activate the native call recording function. The downside of this turns out to be a broken OTA function. I changed my CSC code by using THIS method.
However, it seems I cannot revert it back to the old one. I want to change it again, to receive OTA updates. I don't want to play with Odin on every new update. Any help or advice will be highly appreciated.
Hi, with SM-N986B/DS I changed to INS CSC, original was TMS. INS updates were so delayed...
Try change CSC to SEK (Ukraine), call recorder is included, updates are comming very often.
I did the change with samkey, second change of CSC with samkey and identic phone is free of credit.
Thank you. That's actually solved my issue. Changing the CSC to SEK allowed me to receive OTA. Also, before the change, I removed the sd card and the sim card if that does matter somehow.
Dears,
I have S908E 22 Ultra, but my country always get updates very late. So the question is if I flashed other country firmware without changing CSC , will I still get OTA updates ?
Yes you will get but those OTA updates will be from that other region only
Hi, I have S908E 22 Ultra, I want to flash the USA or SM-G9880 firmware (or any snapdragon firmware) is OK ?
Also I changed the CSC code but the last line (country of production not change) example: COO/COO/COO after change CSC: XID/XID/COO. It's possible to change the country of production CSC without root?
Can anyone help with the info if can do it or not, only the last CSC (country of production) other CSC I changed with SamFw FRP Tool but like I said I can change the last 3 letters!
Thank you!
