I'm new to these & if anyone can answer my below questions, it will be a big help to me.

2. How to find those in my device. (I know how to find customization & SI number. But how to find CDF?)
3. Is CDF = customization number = SI number
4. What will happen if i change my customization number as my SI number.
5. To get the official firmware updates from Sony PC Companion, do i need to change my customization number as my SI number.

Question Relating To Arc S SI And CDA Number

** Need an accurate answer on this please **
is 1254-8596 a cda number that corresponds to 1253-9721 si number ??
an indian friend having an arc s i guess could help me better so please let me know or anyone else too please .
i am using arc s and under my phone's battery i see si number as 1253-9721 but as i press *#*#7378423#*#* on my phone and look in info it says customization version 1254-8596(I am on 4.0.2.A.0.62 for some reason). So what i am asking is it correct ?!
1253-9721 is indian generic so though its showing 1254-8596 in my phones in settings by pressing *#*#7378423#*#*, still is it then indian generic that i would have got out of box and all's fine?!
Would highly apprecitate if anyone reply soon and clear my doubt please!

[Q] I need Software Info from an unmolested Arc S, SI

After some adventures with rooting my Arc S by the help of downloaded firmwares i decided to restore my phone to the original nordic 4.0.4-firmware. Since i didn't feel like loosing my root-access i used Flashtools firmwarecooking-functions with the saved files in the "blob_fs"-folder located in the Update Service-folder.
From what i can tell it seemed to have worked, the phone works flawlessly. So out of curiosity i decided to check the servicemenu and see what it could tell me about my phone. To my surprise my SI is not mentioned anywhere under "Software info". Not that it bothers me since the phone works, but i am just to curious to let it slide. To my shame i never checked it before i flashed the phone with the downloaded firmware labeled "Generic Trade NCB".
My SI from the sticker under the battery reads: 1254-1113
Servicemenu -> Software info reports:
Phone Software Version: 1253-8238_4.1.B.0.431 / GENERIC - user
File System Version: WORLD-i_4.1.B.0.431

International phone number

Hi,
I updated and I confirm you that the chinese version doesn't support the international phone number and don't link the +961 numbers on my contacts / and their local numbers.
Can a developper say to me the app which was modified to identify the country where the call is from) in the international ROM.
I backed up my apps from the 1.2.6i, so it's easy to retrieve this feature. And if it's not, can you make a .zip to flash ?
Thank you !!!

CSC vs Carrier ID (in Download Mode). How do I change Carrier ID Samsung Note 10+ 975F

So sure, changing stock firmware from one region to another... no prob... the hardest part is waiting for the firmware download to finish, lol
Anyway, when a different firmware and thus a different CSC is flashed it shows up in software info of the phone as a series of region codes XAS,XAS/MID or whatever it is on each different phone.
The issue I am having is the last 3 letters in that string in my case MID which is Iraq. I have tried France firmware, Australia firmware, New Zealand firmware and they all change the codes except for the last letters again in my case MID.
Also, in Download mode there is (for me) Carrier ID: MID which neve changes no matte what firmware I flash.
I am trying to change that Carrier ID and subsequently the last letters in my software info.
Here is a link for a SNAPDRAGON but I need directions for Exynos.
[Snap.] Guide for Flashing Standard FW, Carrier Switching, and Flashing Unlocked FW
Hello. This is my first guide, so please forgive me if it looks a bit weird. But without further ado I present you with the [Snapdragon] Guide for Flashing Standard Firmware, Carrier Switching, and Flashing Unlocked Firmware for the S8. Here are...
forum.xda-developers.com
So again, changing CSC is easy. Its changing the Carrier ID as shown in Downlead mode I'm looking to do.
If anyone out there knows how to do this and can reply with a few quick bullet points (I just need to know where to go, I don't need every step action) or has a link to some already existing directions that would be great.

I believe that pertains to changing vendor ID. I'm throwing this out of memory but, I also believe, there were guides to do it in the note 4 debrand guides.
It should be like :
Soft/soft / Ven/Carrier
So installed FW refer to software the last 2 to vendor and carrier id
This was made by decompressing the firmware and manualy editing the file for vendor and carrier ID or on the EFS recovery guide. I am sorry I do not remember. this is just too old and became inocuous for me so i totally forgot it.
anyways just giving you some pointers if you want to dig a bit as this was extra old by now.
I need to change my Carrier ID too.
Any update ?
Dependiendo de cómo instale la versión de firmware gratuita no cambiará las letras rojas "carrier__id" este cambio ya está vinculado al imei y componentes del teléfono, debe cambiar el csc, sn e imei.
