Flashing software to NA Region? & unlock?

Hi guys, I am not new to android, I daily flash my Samsung Nexus via CWM all the time.
However, My dad recently went to india and i believe got his phone unlocked their for Indian sim cards to work.
Now if they flashed a indian rom on the phone as well, How do i flash the native BELL rom? also, How do i unlock this?
I read around one has to download multiloader and find the Bell Flash file, or whatever the stock one is that Bell gives out in Canada.
Can anyone help me with this? I'm new to this area of XDA. Basically I need a Bell stock flash file, and need to network lock his sim card back to Bell again.
Cheers
Ok So from reading around it seems like I should do the following:
-Download Multiloader--- Done
- Download Bell Software from SAMFIRMARE, Im downloading the Firmwares for GT-S8500M - Canada (Bell)? is that right one?
- Follow http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1759424 guide to flash my firmware,
and then I should have my dads phone back and on the Bell network right in Canada?
Please give more details so that it is easier to understand you and offer solution.
If I guess right, your dad's phone is Samsung WAVE 8500? And that the phone is completely unlocked now?
If the answer is affirmative, then there is no need to lock it back again to Bell Network. An unlocked phone can be used with any SIM card.
And as the phone was originally of BELL network, just go to Sammobile and download the Canadian firmware for S8500 (WAVE).
Flash your phone with the downloaded firmware and start using it. You don't have to LOCK for it to work with BELL.
The above is only if your dad's phone is WAVE and originally of BELL network. If not, please give more details.
Hey thanks spacks. It was originally from Bell. So if it was flashed to some firmware for india, I will just flash it back to the Bell firmware.
Right now its locked to his India cell phone carrier, So i should probably flash the bell rom to put him back on his original network.
If i run into problems I will post back here, as I am leaving for work now
Edit** If the phone is just locked to the indian carrier, How can i UNLOCK it without flashing a new firmware??
Please read this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1473089

Ok i tried the first step to flash the boot files BUT now running into a issue, the laptop wont detect the samsung phone anymore, I tried reinstalling and updating drivers and uninstalling them, Can anyone help me? The phone boots up to the "Samsung Wave I8500M" logo screen but freezes...I really need to flash this Bell firmware asap.
Ooooops
This is not going well as expected :S
Go to SamMobile and download the canadian fw available there and flash it
Then try again with the flock to unlock your phone

Hey it's okay! I fixed it the driver was somehow corrupt, so I downloaded Samsung kies, everything is fixed. Flashed the Canadian firmware last night.
However, is there any way to get BADA 2.0 on the Canadian wave?? Any flash files? I can't find anything.....I hate when they delay updates!

[Q] Vodafone to O2 - Just Change ROM?

Hi
I have an N7100 that was 'born' as a UK Vodafone device. Since then I've rooted and tried lots of different ROMs etc. I've now got a Note 4 on upgrade, and the Vodafone store said that my device wasn't locked (they said the status was neither locked or unlocked - maybe because I've rooted/Rom's it before?)
I'm now selling this to a friend who has an O2 sim.
If I download the stock N7100 O2 ROM from SamMobile and install via ODIN, will this work? As in, is there anything wrong with doing this?
He wants a stock ROM, but will root it for him anyway. I don't think he's interested in a 'custom' ROM even if it's just a stock ROM with the junk removed.
Any help appreciated.
Thanks
O2 ROM will not do anything if phone is locked. Try his sim card in your current setup, if that doesn't work you need the phone unlocking, changing the ROM does nothing apart from load o2 junk on.

Change default firmware, SM-J510FN

Hello there, I'm a new user. First things first, I'm sorry if I do some grammar errors. I own a Samsung Galaxy J5 2016, model SM-J510FN. I live in Italy, and I have got Android Marshmallo 6.0.1 . According to Sammobile, I saw that there are some firmwares, like the Polish one, that have already got Android Nougat 7.1.1. Now, checking on IMEI checker, I saw that my phone is TIM brand (a mobile network brand in Italy), infact when I factory reset the mobile, It automatically installs TIM apps, but I don't think my phone is brand-locked, because I use WIND, another network brand. Checking on some forums, I saw guides for flashing another country firmware with Odin. So, I have a few questions, because this is my first time I want to flash.
1) Will I have some network troubles by installing the no-brand Polish firmware? Will I be able to use my SIM card?
2) Won't I get my phone brand blocked by installing another country firmware?
Thanks in advance. :good:

S9 Message Your current software version isn't supported. Visit a service centre

Hi first post, please be gentle
I've got an s9 which is on EE UK, I flashed the phone with stock firmware, I did run into a couple of issues where when flashing the phone it got stuck on odm.img so I had to start again but using CSC and not home CSC so I lost everything
When the phone rebooted, it started up in German, so as I had my sim card in, it restarted in English
I'm using the following
G960FXXU2CSA2/G960FOXM2CSA2/G960FXXS2BRK3
Service provider SW SAOMC_SM-G960F_OXM_DBT_PP_0009
DBT/XEU/EVR
When I check for updates I get the following
Your current software version isn't supported. Visit a service centre
Can anyone help on how to put this right, I want to stay on stock firmware, not EE firmware
Thanks in advance
Good morning, I have a problem with my S9 model G9600 which came from the factory with the firmware of Hong Kong, however I tried to change the firmware for the one in Colombia because some voice services of the operators only work with the software of the country. But when trying to flash the part of CSC I mark the error and obviously the installation fails as in a kind of A brick because the logo of Galaxy S9 does not pass and is only solved by reinstalling the firmware with which it came from the factory; I have already made sure that the binary is the same, however I can not find a solution. I attach photos of the error.

are you having an identical issue? i ask that because resolutions are very specific. Flashing firmware from www.sammobile.com/firmwares is very commonly the fix for a great many issues, but id hate to have you go thru the trouble of doing so if its not necessary
I tried flashing using odin but didnt work. btw, im using SM-965U and currently residing in Thailand. I dont know if this is the reason why I cant update at all.
S9 message
I am in the U.S. and am getting the message that software isn't supported also. Is there any resolution to this problem?
In case it helps, I was having this same issue with my unlocked Galaxy Note 10+. I found this thread after searching. I had gotten into this situation by flashing CP/AP/BL from TMO firmware without also flashing TMO's CSC or USERDATA. I avoided CSC/USERDATA (I was using the home CSC) because I wanted to avoid wiping the phone.
When I finally gave up and flashed CSC and USERDATA, everything was back to normal.

A little help with flash firmware

Hello guys. I am from Europe and just buy Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra with Snapdragon. The phone is unlocked, but have carrier brand, Verizon, I want to remove it. Can't change phone language (see that this problem is discussed here, but I did not see a solution) and in Verizon miss Samsung Cloud.
I decided to try changing stock rom with Odin. Now downloading official firmware SM 988U, because I read that must put firmware with "U", and downloading SM-988USQU1CTLB (this is my baseband version and hope that this is correct firmware), write only USA, without any brands, from sammobile, I hope that is without carrier brand. Don't know if I will manage to change language successfully, because the phone is made for USA, but hope that carrier brand will disappear and Samsung Cloud will show. Will do this for first time and don't understand a lot of things. However, my question is for Bootloader.... I try to see if my bootloader is unlocked or locked, but can't do it.... If I put new firmware and bootloader is locked what will happens? Sorry for my stupid question, but I try to learn how things happen What you think, is my idea is good or no?
Something is bricks. I downloaded the original stock firmware from sammobile. USA only, I successfully uploaded it, everything with Odin was good, but after restarting and entering my sim card pin code, the phone want pin code to get app notifications. Please someone help me.... What is this pin code? I can only received phone calls
I manage to put the phone in downloading mod, please someone tell me witch firmware must download and install? The phone is SM-988U
