Looking for firmware G965WVLU1ARBG
It seems when you but in your first sim card, the s9 plus bonds with the carriers sim you put in. So i'm looking for firmware G965WVLU1ARBG for either Rogers RWC or XAC which uses the same firmware.
I'm currently on G965WVLU1ARC1
My device is SM-G965WAlready tried fastory reset which only resets it the normal way. I need something the resets it out of the box.

Hello,
I have called Sprint many times, after they keep telling me it is unlocked domestically and internationally, I finally gave up. The phone simply says to contact sprint to unlock. I have no idea what to do. When I press UCCI Unlock it gives me an internal error(407). I tried flashing unlocked firmware (U1) But it does not work on that either. Tried booting up with T-Mobile sim inside, still same result. What to do?
Please help!
I had the same problem. I did a factory reset of my phone, and afterwards, the phone was automatically unlocked. For me, it seemed like a firmware bug.
Hi all. After the phone get unlocked, flash the U1 firmware and you'll be just fine. On the U1 firmware, T-Mobile is the only US carrier network that utilize the full potential of the U1 firmware, Wi-Fi calling and VoLTE. Verizon second with VoLTE, Sprint and AT&T no ? good on U1 firmware, only standard U firmware. Happy flashing
Hello,
I recently purchased a note 10+ unlocked version from the states and live in Canada. I've updated the phone and everything, but the samsung pay app does not look like the Canada one and when I try to add a card, it asks for a zip code. I've tried uninstalling the app, clearing the cache, etc and re-downloading it; but to no avail. Can I try factory data reset with the Canadian Sim in? Under software information, it shows XAA which upon my research, indicates that it is USA unbranded firmware.
Is there some Canadian firmware I have to install? Where can I find it? Thank you.

You will have to flash the SM-N975W firmware which is the variant that's sold by Samsung in Canada.
You'll want the XAC CSC which is for Canadian unbranded, similar to XAA for USA.
The firmware can be downloaded through SamFirm or Frija and should be flashed with the patched version of Odin 3.13.1 to allow cross-flashing from N975U1 to N975W.

After you install the XAC firmware, remove your Canadian SIM card, restart the device once and then do a factory reset to confirm that it has been switched to XAC. After that you will be able to install the Canadian variant of Samsung Pay, as well as use other carrier features like VoLTE and WiFi calling if available.

Thank you. I replied in the other thread.
I Have an Unlocked S20 Ultra 5G from samsung. a while back flashed the t-Mo firmware to have 5G SA access. flahsed the lastest update BTIE. I also have a line with AT&T and decided to try that in my phone and test out their 5G. so i put my sim in and changed my CSC to ATT using the dialer *#272*IMEI# and all was well. went to switch back and didnt think and i selected XAA. now my phone is stuck on XAA, and the csc dialer code no longer works and neither does the *#BAND# dialer code. I have even tried to do a clean flash in odin with the csc file not home-csc and neither one works and im still stuck in the XAA/XAA/XAA.
anyone have any idea how i can get it back to how it was?

Probably have to use Samkey
Good day everyone!
I recently got a new phone (Galaxy S21), and I saw that you can bring your own phone to Tracfone, so I gave my Verizon S9 (SM-G960U) to my wife (to upgrade her old Samsung Tracfone phone).
We bought and installed the Tracfone SIM card and everything seemed to be working (she could make and take phone calls).
Little did I realize that Tracfone actually also uses WiFi for phone calls, and thus making and taking calls was not using Tracfone's network while connected to WiFi.
When we started researching why her phone did not work outside the home, we found that the CSC is still set to VZW.
This S9 has the latest April 2021 security update from Verizon (Android 10).
I downloaded an older stock Tracfone ROM, but Odin fails with an Auth error (presumably because the phone is not unlocked nor rooted, and the bootloader is locked).
I also tried just flashing the CSC with a Tracfone CSC, but it also failed with an Auth error.
All of the research I have done to this point indicates that Samsung makes flashing Android 10 Galaxy phones very difficult, and I suspect that I am screwed.
Should I put the Verizon SIM card back in and beg Verizon support for an unlock code? Will that even help?
Why doesn't the Tracfone SIM card override the VZW CSC? I thought the SIM card would take precedence.
Thank you in advance, and I hope I am not repeating another thread (I searched, but I couldn't find anything related to changing CSC or rooting a Samsung Galaxy phone running Android 10).
P.S. I have no objections to performing a factory reset of the phone if it will help.
P.P.S. I would like to run the stock Tracfone S9 image so my wife can get the OTA updates, but I'm willing to do whatever to get it working (I would even be happy with running the existing VZW firmware as long as it works).
Converting your Unlocked device over to FirstNet firmware requires Patched Odin you need the v3.14.1 Patched version. You will also need the newest TMB (universal) carrier firmware, links below. Extract the zip when the download completes. You will not lose any data or factory reset during this process. You will need an ATT sim card.
S22
S22 Plus
S22 Ultra
Take your current S22 running the unlocked U1 firmware (don't skip this step, only U1 firmware can make the change to the ATT - CSC) and insert an ATT sim it has to be ATT not your FN Sim. If you don't have one you can try your local ATT store with a FirstNet rep and explain that you just need an unactivated ATT sim. If they give you any trouble, WalMart sells prepaid ones for $10.
Insert the ATT sim, you will get a pop-up explaining that the phone needs to restart to apply ATT settings. Let it restart. Once your phone is up and running, power it down.
Open Patched Odin and load up all the respective files from the folder you downloaded. Use BL, AP, CP and HOME_CSC (using the other CSC will factory reset and revert to XAA firmware.) now put your phone in download mode (boot up while holding power + vol up + vol down.) Once in download mode connect the phone via USB to your computer. Once Patched Odin recognizes the phone go ahead and flash. Your phone will reboot with an ATT logo. You can now swap back to the FN Sim.
Now you have a FirstNet S22.

Because FirstNet makes first responders priority when it comes data and cell service.

It's worth it if you are a first responder. To each their own.
Is there a way to do this with my unlocked A52 also?

I tried looking through other posts, maybe you can answer this for me. Once flashed, should OTA updates work?
I know att/FN can be picky with stuff. Everything should be good on my phone with the U software. Shows att/att/att/xaa

OTA should work just fine, it did on the S21 and N20U.

Good to know! I appreciate it.
Will flashing the att rom void my warranty?
Also can i revert back fr att to unlcoked rom? Thanks
I'm on Verizon now and would like to move to First Net. If I flash to ATT software, would I still be able to use the Verizon SIM until switching over, or would I need to move to ATT, then FirstNet? Also, If I flash the ATT Firmware, would I be able to reflash to the Samsung stock (XAA)? I don't mind extra steps, I just don't want to screw up my phone or service. Thank you.
