C9pro nougat update issue

Hello...i am from pakistan ..ijust got new c9pro i thought it should be able to update the firmware but when i check manually its negative...i am still running marshmellow...i just realy want to update the nougat ....any one can help ??

May we know what kind of device variant do you have now, from C9 Pro (SM-C9000 / 0F / 0Y / 08)?
If it is a variant of 0F then certainly you have an international variant, which is currently only rolled out in limited still in India. Perhaps others (regions / countries) will follow. Please Check here!!
But if you use variants from China / Hongkong (SM-C9000) [Please Check Here]and also Taiwan (SM-C900Y) [Please Check Here] then Nougat has rolled out.
Except for variants from China (SM-C9008) [Please Check Here] I think it hasn't been rolled out yet.
I think all the variants of the type I mentioned above will get it, maybe it just takes time to wait for it. Hope it helps.
PS. If you believe your device should have got it, but this time still not, then the quick solution is to download the firmware according to the type of variant you have, then flash with the latest odin. Good Lucks.

I have c9oof/ds....

Please check your device model here. I seem confused that people are more likely to call "DS" for the C900F variant, which after I check is an extension of "Dual SIM". But based on some that I read, almost all Galaxy C9 Pro devices have DS features aka Dual Sim. Perhaps it can brighten up curiosity. By the way I have the C9000-TGY variant (It should be called C9000 / DS, maybe).

And when u find your variant then go to here https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-c9-pro/SM-C900F/ and select your variant/country download firmware then flash it by odin ?

Who can tell the exact date of releasing c9 pro in pakistan....

Question Can I use esim from Israel in my US purchased SM-R875U?

Hello,
I purchased my galaxy watch 4 from Amazon US, and when I wanted to install esim from local carrier in Israel I was told that the phone is not supported (they asked my IMEI and Eid and tried to register the watch on their side). I looked up and I can see that the band support in the US differs from the one in Israel- you can see the screenshots I made from the Samsung US site and the Samsung IL site.
Is there a way to modify the watch region in order for it to work under IL LTE bands? or does Samsung manufacture unique hardware for each region?
Thanx in advance

Donno yet. I will update after I try it

Just remember as stated, you can not go back if you change your csc. So be very careful in what you choose because I will not be responsible just giving you a suggestion . I have NOT tried this....

I finally got to this task today, and when I try to reach the CSC change scree by dialing, from the watch, *#272*IMEI number# I get UNKNOWN APPLICATION message in my phone. Any ideas how to reach the CSC screen?

I have limited time...

You have US device with US CSC inside...
You can maximum change between:

You can find with ADB Tool available CSC inside your Firmware...

Question S21+ no updates since June

I bought this s21+ G996B Exynos from a local shop.
Since I bought this phone I don't remember that there was a single update available for it.
See the screenshots for details.
Can any one tell which country CSC is this in screenshots. I can't seem to identify it.
I am looking to upgrade to Android 12 and not interested in root (but if its the only way to go to android 12 then I guess its ok)
Should I change CSC ? Will that enable updates for me. Is there a a process for S21+
Any other way to upgrade?

Tried Frija to download any updates but it says no updates found.

Rule #1 if the firmware is fast, stable and fulfilling its mission... let it be.
Upgrades can and do break things.
There are many reported issues with 12.
Security simply isn't a major issue with Android 9 and up.
You can always update latter if you want or need to...

Hi
Those CSC that you show are really strange , I could not find out what WWD is from and XAA ( least important one) is from USA??
What would I do? ....change your active CSC (WWD) , if you are not rooted , try this first , if that do not work you will have to pay for the service (SamKey) , change your active CSC to Pakistan (PAK) for example , or any other country you choose ang get regular updates
Pakistan had several already since june , check here

Thanks for the reply.
Which region is better considering
1. I have an samsung active 2 watch and I would like to use its BP and ECG features. On watch I had changed the CSC to korean and features are available on it but not on the mobile at the moment.
2. Will a BTU firmware https://samfw.com/firmware/SM-G996B/BTU/G996BXXU4BULF work on my device
3. If I change the CSC only will the updates start working on right away?

Hi
Which region is better? i guess everyone has an opinion , myself any of the multi csc OXM
Regarding your questions
1 no idea
2 if a saw correctly you have a G-996B , it should work fine , BTU is a good choice
3 Yes it should , watch out , when you change the CSC you will factory reset the phone
If you use the dialer method , the CSC of choice has to be present in the rom installed in the phone , I can see you have an OXM so it should , if not , then you should flash an OXM first and the change to the desire CSC
With Samkey they recommend to flash the correct rom after changing the CSC
Backup before you do anything

Flashing firmware does no longer change CSC. If the dailer codes don't work you have to use paid Samkey service. I did and it works perfectly fine. Changed from TNL (T-Mobile branded) to VDF (Vodafone branded) and have full VoLTE/WiFi/Other carrier apps functionality including OTA updates now through Vodafone.

As I mentioned before , if the dialer method does not work , you have to paid to change your active CSC

Question CSC country not available for S22 Ultra Model

Hello all,
I lived in Germany for a while and bought a S22 Ultra (CSC code EUX).
I moved back to South Africa and Samsung Pay is not working "Samsung Pay isn't available on your phone".
My plan is to change my CSC to South Africa by flashing the device, but the problem is I cannot find the South African firmware (CSC code) for my Model Number.
Model number is SM-S908B/DS.
I can only see South African CSC Firmware (XFA or XFE) for model number SM-S908E.
If I use this firmware, will I brick the phone?

Yes you will brick your phone because 908B is exynos and 908E is snapdragon but i see people change csc from 908B EUX for Countries there as call recording....

https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/sd-native-call-recording-csc-without-rooting.4404139/

You can use SamFW tool to change CSC to XFA/XFE, as it's available in S908B firmware. However, you wont't receive any OTA updates due to South African devices being S908E. You need to flash via Odin every updates of S908B (CSC and data will be kept). You can't flash S908E firmware, it's not compatible.

The reason for this is initially, Samsung intended to use Exynos (B model) for more regions (including SA), but then decided to switch to Snapdragon. Hence the presence of SA CSC in Exynos firmwares, and future OTA updates not being released for S908B XFA/XFE.
However, manually flashing each full update (around 8 to 9GB) each month is probably bad for device's flash memory. So I recommend selling your device and buy a South African S908E.

Question s22 ultra change firmware from uae to india

Hello. I bought an s22 ultra SM-S908E/DS in Dubai/UAE but I have now moved to India permanently. The phone lacks the CALL RECORDING feature. I hear also Samsung Pay India does not work. Not sure if there are any other issues. Please can someone guide me on how to change.
I tried an earlier post for an older phone - go recovery, factory reset, reboot with indian sim card - but this does NOT work. I've tried it twice now.
Is there another option available ? Can I download the latest India firmware from from the site below and upgrade the firmware using Odin ? Any specific settings or process to be considered ? It will also be useful to know if there is someone on this forum who has successfully migrated - and got the call recording enabled etc.
Download Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra SM-S908E INS India firmware
All Samsung firmwares for Galaxy S22 Ultra in India with model code SM-S908E. We offer free and fast download options. Check them out now.
www.sammobile.com
I will be very grateful for your assistance.
PS. Another post I read asked if the phone has 'test mode'. What is test mode ? Is this the test mode you get by typing *#0*# in the call option ? It does have it..

UAE and India both sharing OXM group so it doesn't make any difference by flashing firmware as both are same.
Using Indian SIM should be fine, if not, just factory reset with keeping Indian SIM installed should work, it's weirdo it doesn't work
Kindly post screenshot of setting - about phone - software info

Meanwhile, I called Samsung Care India ( Kerala ) and tried to ask if they can assist - and and they will not upgrade/change the firmware it seems - which I find quite strange.
Will try the firmware and advise update asap. I sincerely hope it is successful. The phone is still under warranty.... so very keen to know if someone has already successfully upgraded this.
PS. Also, I hear that the code *#*#27262826#*#* was used with earlier Android versions to get the CSC codes included in your phone. Is there something similar which displays for the s22 ultra running

Are you sure you have Indian SIM installed? Info doesn't showing Indian SIM
If still issue you can change CCS with this tool

Thanks for this info. Yes. Indian sim installed. Infact, did a reset both a BSNL sim and also with a Vi ( Vodafone-Idea ) sim - and yet - I don't have these.
So - please can you provide more detail on what needs to be done with this tool ? am I looking to change CSC only ? or FRP ? Please provide some detailed info if available - thanks.

As an update.. and for the benefit of others.
Samsung s22 ultra SM-S908E purchased in UAE ( XSG ).
Downloaded latest INS firmware files from sammobile. Used all files AP/BL/CP. Used CSC ( not home-csc). did not use the repartition option. Firmware went thru - however software remained as XSG.
Retried firmware with the repartition option - but Odin failed.
Thereafter, used the SamFw FRP Tool 3.31 and changed CSC to INS - which successfully changed for ins/ins,ins/xsg/xsg ( not sure if this is normal ).
But now, call recording function is now enabled. and no issues with Indian sim. I hope OTA updates will continue.
Will be keen to hear any further concerns or suggestions.

Yes - OTA updates are working. I have received atleast one since I upgraded. No other changes I can find as yet - except that the software shows a dual INS/INS,INS/XSG/XSG on my phone and I wonder what that means

Hi @imustbehuman,
I am also thinking of buying the dubai unit, want to know if 5G and Spay is working for you after csc change.
Also, for how much did you buy and from where.

Bought on Amazon. I believe Samsung pay works but I have not used it. Adding accounts etc definitely works fine. 5G works fine in Dubai but I have not tested in India ( as yet ) since my sim operator Vodafone does not have 5G in this area as yet. But if it works in one place - then it should work fine elsewhere as well.

You only need to change CSC to INS , no need for indian firmware, since it is a part of OXM software group

If I remember well - I read the same thing earlier but it did not work for me. And I had to go through all the steps I mentioned.

Sure you are doing something Wrong , It've been tested 100 times over this forum including myself , no need to flash a complete INS firmware as long as your device is with OXM firmware
