Hi everyone,
I'm new to this forum, and although I've had a look around, I've been unable to find any answers.
I am wondering where would I be able to obtain the stock Telstra firmware/ROM (Australia) for the Galaxy Nexus? And how would I go about returning it to its standard out-of-the-box state? My phone is currently flashed, but I need to return it for warranty purposes. Is this even possible?
Sorry if I'm just duplicating someone else's query,
Regards,
Jesse.

You should be ok just flashing the generic version (yakju). Instructions here. Otherwise, you would need to know what version ships on Telstra devices (e.g., yakjuxw, yakjuux, etc.) and you may be able to find that version floating around somewhere.
Ok so I was unfortunate enough to buy the Honor 7X US model in Pakistan (blame my shopkeepers I guess)
Now that that's out of the way, what I am hoping for is a root method that works on this model first and foremost and as for the update, I am well aware waiting for it is pointless since its not supposed to be in Pakistan, I also tried the Firmware finder app, no luck. Can something like this happen; someone who owns this model in the US makes an image file from their phone and uploads it?
If not, the root will be highly appreciated, but do inform me if a stable custom OS is available since I am rooting anyway.
Hi all
Recently in mexico they removed samsung pay, which renders my phone a bit useless, my question is, is there still a way in android 11 to get a double csc? is there any way to add MXO and XAA/XAS CSC, the thing is that the last two belong to the U/U1 version while MXO is for the F version.
I remember I did that a couple of years ago but cannot find the guide anymore, if anyone can guide me I would really appreciate it.
thanks in advance

Hello is there any free way to debrand Samsung A52s on Android 12 One UI 4.0? I also dont want to trigger the KNOX flag. My current CSC is PRT (Poland (Play)) and I want to make it XEO (Poland). I already tried some methods with phone call codes and none of them work. Is there any way to do this?
If by debranding you mean removing bloatware and changing your bootanimation etc, just root your phone and do those things. You'll easily be able to find tutorials on how to do all that for your device.
Now, if by debranding you mean that you want a stock android feel, then sorry but your device doesn't have any custom Android development, so you can't install a stock/custom ROM.

By debranding I mean get full stock Samsung firmware which CSC code is XEO, and my current CSC code (PRT) and both are in OXM - multi-CSC so I need to change the CSC code, but tools that can do that are paid, like SamKey so is there any free way
I don't have much experience with oneui Samsung devices, so I've got no idea, sorry.

There is nothing about how to do it just link to ADB
Then there's probably no free way to do what you're trying to do. Also in that post the person claims to have the same csc code as you (prt), and samkey did not work for him.
@Raflen100 Hello! Have the same problem as you: purchased a carier SM-A528 whitout realising the consequences and am no bugged by the super slow updates. I think i am on the same OXM firmware as you. Want from DTM to DBT. My attempt to simply flash DBT and then use dialer codes to switch the CSC failed all.
SAMkey is no option for me, as i don't have any idea about the background and don't want to ;-).
Also: don't want to trigger KNOX.
Since i use a different carrier, i just want a stock SAMSUNG and don't have to wait for weeks for my updates.
If you found a way in the meantime, that would be good news.

Actually, there is a way that was created in the meantime. Around may 2022, developers of samfw.com created the SamFw Tool. It can change the csc of phone through ADB without root, so it does not trip KNOX or wipe data, which is awesome. It worked for me really well. Just make sure to use the non-root CSC change.

Hope it helps.

Hello @Raflen100, thank you very much. That looks actually very interesting. I currently seem to be not able to find a version without malware, but i'll keep it on my watch list. Can you accidentally tell from experience, that the [provider] CSC change work without need for rooting? My impression so far is that the provider CSC can not be overwritten by flashing, even after having removed the filesystem, so may be stored somewhere else? Or is the SAMSUNG server telling it to the phone, based on it's IMEI?

You can download it from the link I gave you, it's the official post so no malware.
Yes, it does not have any need for rooting your phone.
Answer to your question is very simple, samsung has multi-CSC roms, so flashing one or another won't change anything on the newer phones. There still are single CSC roms, but there are really few of them. And yes, I think it's based on IMEI, because you can't change the entry for the factory CSC, it will always remain there, but you can change the current CSC of the software just by using this tool.

Brilliant, i got it now, thank you for pointing this out. It clicked for me when you wrote "current" CSC. I'll try.
(I am very sorry for my bad English)
Hello, my friend will be giving me his old A7 (2017) [A720F/DS] to me around next week. He informed me that the Sim#1 slot is carrier locked while the 2nd slot isn't.
I am already planning to root and install a custom rom (Lineage OS) once it arrives since the last major and security update was no longer active since last year.
I try scouring on the internet for answers but I have no luck -- I would to ask if there's for me to worry about doing these process considering that the phone has a carrier lock? Or it is deemed impossible due to the same reason?
Thank you very much in advance!
