Hi I would like to get a little help to unlock my
phone.
I tried to get an unlock code but it did not work.
I have now a custom rom and my phone is rooted.
I read that for UK people the rom change helped to
get the code accepted.
Should I try more roms or radio update?
Should I put somehow an unbranded ROM?
I think trying to buy more codes are useless
but maybe some compony has the right one...
My IMEI starts with 3578410
I sow on some unlock pages that for these
phone I have to pay more due to being in the newest database.
(htcgate)
I got from htccode the info that in this kind
of situations the provider lock back the phone.
They promise a cable solution from december...
I guess they can do it because there is something
in their rom, that's why I wanted to replace it...
I had no succes so far.
Thanks

Hi,

Can anyone tell me will it be a problem to use Z1c from another region.
I'm from Serbia (south-east Europe) and want to buy second-hand phone originally made for Sweden.
Will it work everywhere in Europe?
If i face with bad signal problems, will it be possible to fix it by flashing my region firmware, or this is hardware problem?
Sorry for silly questions, but I'm not sure if I'm going to waste my money...
It will probably be totally safe without the need to flash any region firmware. If by any chance there are issues you can always use your region firmware.

Thanks. I just wasn't sure if it's 100% firmware related, and not hardware issue.
But few minutes ago I found in gsmarena that network bands are compatible in whole Europe.
If someone needs info about their device, it can be checked here...
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
Hi guys just got a new phone supposed to be uk unlocked sim free brand new.but its weird
The service provider sw ver dont look english to me
SPR/XAA/VZW
I have my ee sim card inserted and it works to make calls. But there is a weird notification saying OMADM activation not completed
Also says LTE on the screen something I've never heard of or seen here in england we use 4g volte.so I'm confused also the software for uk phones are BTU/BTU/BTU OR XEU/XEU/XEU
And last the box is weird as it says unlocked by Samsung and has a warming saying reproductive harm I was thinking wtf is this phone.
Also it says Qualcomm on the top on a sticker,we use xenox version england

Samsung CSC Codes List (All) | Change CSC on Samsung Devices
Today, we'll explain Samsung CSC codes. Besides, we also have a list of CSC codes or region codes with a method to change CSC on Samsung.
www.droidviews.com
Is it new?
Yes from amazon uk
So this phone cant be used here in England then other than making phone calls ?and how do I get uk firmware onto the phone?I'm a noob and not good with computers
Also changing the csc codes to uk what will that change?as we dont even have the snapdragon model in england?so would there even be uk firmware for an American phone?
Google tells me spr means sprint and that's the first code of the 3
Vzw looking on google means Verizon and that's the 3rd code so the phone was originally a Verizon locked phone.thats was unlocked and flashed with sprint fw, because the second csc code says xaa and apparently that means unlocked.
So what does this mean for me a uk user.luke I said in the uk our phones are BTU/BTU/BTU or XEU/XEU/XEU if there uk and unlocked
If you have a active sim, try inserting it.
It should come online.
My unlocked 10+ I just got did, zero issues.
If not I would return it.

How can I flash uk xenox firmware onto an American snapdragon phone?.I'm a beginner when it comes to this.as I only buy uk phones as I'm in the uk and it seems complicated flashing stuff this handset is a u version and I want to make it the f version
You cannot flash UK firmware on your US phone.
Just return it to Amazon, claim full refund as the product is not as advertised: no UK unlocked version, not new. Also screenshot in post #8 refers to firmware of a Note 9, not a Note 10 (N960 is Note 9), this makes this phone even more suspicious...
Return it. There's a lot of bs going on with sellers of this phone. This has gotten really bad. Amazon, saw some deceptive advertising there recently for this model and the N20U.
Best to contact the seller on the phone first; no phone contact, don't use. Make sure you are given full specs on their site and it's compatible with your country/provider.
Buy only a new one if possible. Used ones may be running on Android 11, you don't want that!
I was able to find a reliable US vender and got a new umlocked 10+ 256gb/12gb Snapdragon about a week ago for $800. It was as advertised except due to its manufacturing date is running on Q not Pie. It's a keeper.

Oh sorry it's a note 9 i apologise.so if I cant change it to a uk firmware is the phone useless to use in the uk other than to call people?because my sim card works to make calls
Also OMADM activation not completed message is pissing me off
What does it even mean.i think my phone has sprint firmware on it?how can I change it to normal unlocked firmware so it's nothing to do with sprint I cant stant that OMADM ITS MAKING ME MAD
And Verizon is what I think the phone was originally.
Last thing the phone was sold as brand new sealed but it's not even in the correct box the phone I have is 128gb not 512gb
And it had a sealed sticker saying euro sim only but the phone is American? I think the box is fake ?as it looks nothing like any note 9 box I've ever seen
I'm going to try and flash the phone the phone is currently csc SPR/XAA/VZW boot loader 5 I've just downloaded android 10 also on bootloader 5 ovbisly the XAA VERSION will it work or can I only download and flash SPR FIRMWARE?
as I'm trying to get rid of the MADMEN activation not completed message
Update I tried to flash it but when I pressed start in Odin nothing happened so I guess I'm stuck on spr for life unless I forrgire out how to change the first csc

Cheers the phone is u1 allready just cant change SPR TO XAA
So it's impossible to flash to unlocked unbranded so it's going back to the scammer that sold it to me on amazon

It's not impossible but if you are not experienced with better get it back, it doesn't worth the try, you can end by messing up completely.
I've flashed phones many many times before normally when I update the fw via ota and then regret it and need to downgrade back .this phone I just flashed but the start button wouldn't work because I was trying to flash XAA VERSION and not the SPR VERSION .I guess if I was to follow a guide on changing the csc from SPR TO XAA then flashing will work but what the point i wanted a uk brand new factory sealed sim free handset like I paid for
So this pos phone can go back to the scammer on amazon.its a discrace they are making fake seals on the boxes.using fake accessories and lieing saying the phones are uk.the average person would fall for this lies because the phone is unlocked my uk sim will work but you get that OMADM pop up and it's a nightmare.plus I doubt half the functionality will even work.
Hello,
Is there a way to remove the carrier branding from Galaxy Fold3? I mean the boot animation and stock wallpaper.
I downloaded the EUX version of the firmware (which is the European Union version) and flashed it via Odin. I booted the phone without the SIM card... but it still recognized my carrier. I was greeted by the familiar boot animation and familiar wallpaper.
Is there a way to have a clean Samsung experience without rooting the phone?
Best regards,
BlackDragon
you need change CSC first , use SamKey https://www.samkey.org/ to change it, then make OTA update or flash it by odin

Thank you. I appreciate the reply.
It's quite expensive... I will test it once my Fold3 comes back from RMA.
