Hello! I have galaxy s6 duos and want to flash firm http://live.samsung-updates.com/details/48693/Galaxy_S6/SM-G920F/SEK/G920FXXU2BOFJ.html with region csc SEK, BUT this firmware are multi csc and always applies region SER....... what i can do with this without root and tripping knox ?
Try flashing this latest 5.1.1 ROM (CSC: SEK) via odin. After flashing go to recovery mode and do full reset.
If it does not work bring your S6 back to Samsung for free factory reflash to enable your region CSC.

Are you sure that your phone has SEK as CSC? If you flash a multi CSC rom and SER is automaticlly applied, then your phone has SER CSC.
You can change that by flashing the SEk firmware and do a factory reset afterwards. That will wipe your phone and change your CSC to SEK.
Here you go. Latest 5.1.1 stock ROM (CSC: SEK) for you to flash ASAP via odin to hopefully restore your CSC to SEK.

After installing android will select the CSC from those available and match it to the one already on the phone.
The only way to change your CSC is to root and then use the Samsung CSC changer .... but why? as the firmware will stay the same.

so it seems that u should root then change CSC ................but i believe that the apps on play store determine your region by internet connection ,and apps which are installed with the fresh rom should be available on play store for free you can simply find then instead of tripping knox......any way if u need help i can help u ....i have changed my CSC code by rooting my device as it's already out of warranty

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
Country/Region: United Kingdom
PDAG930FXXU1DQB3
CSCG930FOXA1DQB1
PhoneG930FXXU1DQB1
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.

Thanks for the reply.
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

Thanks, I'll stay alert to that possibility. I'll go with the XEU variant and hopefully be ok. Just need to backup my stuff first.

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.
Hi, im unable to change firmware on my samsung galaxy note 20 ultra. Currently its UAE. I have downloaded srilanka firmware, successfully flashed it using odin. But when the phone is started it showes still on UAE. Kindly help or guide me on this issue.
Is UAE the firmware version or the CSC?
If it's the firmware version it's strange you can flash and get success then go back to the older firmware but if it's CSC then it's understandable.
You may need to look up how to change your CSC version, there are guides on here...
Flashing an OXM rom won't change your CSC but the firmware version will change.

For people who can't switch between csc in the same mult csc pack. OXM multi csc pack contains all the european generic and network branded firmware (csc) so if You are at XSG (part of OXM multi pack), and flash it with SLK (part of OXM multi pack) the XSG will stay. What you need to do is to flash it with different multi csc pack (just see what packs are available for your model), try to flash Brazil CSC ZTO, which is part of multi pack OWO. then flash it back with OXM multi pack, and it should switch to some generic csc, then if you instert your sim card it should ask you if you want to customize your phone to the inserted sim card and it will change your csc to the one you want.
Can't change the CSC of XSG
Hi all
Anyone need call recording option, flash Indonesia firmware (XID)
Or Chinese stock ROM.
Hi,
I have A52 4G (A525F) with OLM (XME) firmware and would like to enable native call recording.
From reading Samsung forums I understand that ILO (Israel), THL (Thailand) and XID (Indonesia) CSC would allow native call recording.
The problem is that unlike for S20 etc, for A52 none of those CSC is included in OXM firmware, ILO is OJM and others are OLM, so it looks if I flash OXM firmware for A52 I would get nothing.
I don't care to pay for some credits with samkey, but the question is if samkey can set ILO CSC for OJM, not OXM firmware and if this would give me native call recording?
Or the only way available is to unlock the boot loader and root A52?
Really appreciate your help!
Thanks much.

If your bootloader is unlocked, you can flash another region's/country's firmware (with Odin). But changing to another CSC will force you to do a factory reset/wipe data.
Are you sure about native call recording for those CSC firmware versions?
I am on DBT (unlocked/unbranded German), and this does not have call recording.
On my previous Samsung phones (S9, S9 Plus, A50 and A51) I got a built-in Call Recording without any problems so I switched CSC to XXV. It was enough to flash Home CSC from Vietnam, and there was no need to reset to factory settings.
On my new A52, which had all the EUX CSC tags, that way doesn’t work.
I tried to flash only part of the XXV and THL firmware, and then the whole firmware and I couldn't get the built-in Call Recording.
I think the problem is that I download the XXV (Vietnam) or THL (Thailand) firmware, and after flashing it says: XME.
This should be addressed, so a way would be found to get a built-in Call Recorder.
EDIT:
I finally managed to get a built-in Call Recording. I flashed the INS (India) firmware, with Home CSC, so I didn't lose any data. All together it lasted 5 minutes and now Call Recording is working ...
My original CSC was EUX,EUX,EUX,EUX, now is: INS,INS,INS, EUX

Please explain a bit. Do you mean that you flashed :-
1) download and flashed INS firmware with INS CSC
OR
2) download INS firmware and EUX firmware then flashed INS firmware with EUX CSC
i'm sure many still wondering how to do this
thanks in advance

I flashed the complete latest INS firmware via Odin. I put HOME CSC, so as not to lose all my data and applications.
The flashing ended in a few minutes, the cell phone restarted and everything was as before ... it offered me several apps from India, but I refused. If not, they can be uninstalled later.
I live in Europe, I have Croatian SIM card... no problem.
Updates come to me normally and regularly, there have been 2 since the flash.
In the Phone application, in Settings, you can select Call recording
I just noticed that the XFE firmware also doesn't have call recording. My previous phone had it with the EGY firmware. Strange, why wouldn't it just be enabled by default?

Could you please and please take me through the steps in activating the native call recording on my Samsung A32 without losing my files. I'm disappointed Samsung didn't make this common feature available on their latest phones. Please help me.
Sorry, my English is bad for detailed instructions...
Is it possible to flash Home CSC alone in Odin?
Yes.
I now have all EUX and only Home CSC India (IND).
Everything works, I have a Call Recorder and I haven't lost any data when flashing.
You just have to use Home CSC from the same month as everything else (BL, AP, CP) is.

Ah, so BL, AP & CP must be flashed along with Home CSC then
I'm not sure. It's probably enough to flash only Home Csc, but I haven't tried ... I flashed only home CSC on Galaxy S9 and Galaxy A50 and it worked
Can anyone with the call recording option enabled confirm the value of the following by running adb shell settings get system on computer (or other device)? These are the values I got on my device (call recording option not available in call settings) from adb shell settings list system:
Code:
record_call_storage_setting_value=0
record_calls_automatically_on_off=0
record_calls_automatically_type=0
record_calls_notification_on_off=1
for eg, to get the values for the first one, type adb shell settings get system record_call_storage_setting_value (after enabling USB debugging and connecting device to adb of course). Or conversely, do adb shell settings list system to get all the values (can also rerun replacing system with secure then global to get other values).

So I tried it and can confirm that simply flashing the Home CSC file alone in Odin for a different region but the same software version installed on the device changes the CSC (as expected), no data loss and I was able to get call recording option too. Flashed INS Home CSC over XME for the record. Just a couple notifications on restart asking to install new apps.
The only issue with the Indian firmware is that it might come with a bit more bloatware than other country's firmware. Don't know for sure though.
Call recording works with vowifi enabled if you flash indian rom?
Is vowifi available with indian rom and european peoviders (especially interested at vodafone or cosmote)

As far as I know only Xiaomi with special ROM supports vowifi recording. This is why I abandonded samsung and went to Xiaomi .
At my Xiaomi with https://xiaomi.eu/community/ ROM it works.
