G9880 CSC check - Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions &

Hi everyone,
Sorry if this has already been asked, but I searched a lot and couldn't find a clear answer.
I just got my imported s20 ultra and it came with a OSZ csc. I read it could be both a TGY and a BRI. Am I correct?
how can i know which one I got and then decide whether or not to change it?
Thanks
EDIT:
my bad, I was looking in the wrong place.
I'm BRI

Change the CSC on a .MD5 file

Hey Guys,
The title is pretty self-explanatory, I purchased a Galaxy Watch active from a Hong Kong seller not realising it would stop me from using Samsung Pay. As it is a new model I've only found one copy of the Firmware .MD5 files and the CSC is not the Australian one (which is the country that I live in). Is it possible to change the CSC code and thus the region of the .MD5 file so I can Flash my watch and get it onto the right region and unlock Samsung Pay?
I apologise if this is a stupid or naive question this is all brand new to me and I'm still trying to keep up.

Hey i found this post https://forum.xda-developers.com/sm...r805f-csc-change-howto-esim-rsp-v2-x-t3848292
It should technically work. Let me know if it does please as i have ordered a galaxy watch import as well (HK to Australia) and only just found this out.
EDIT: Also look at this link https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2546689 it should provide the right code for the Australian firmware

Hey, sorry for the delay in reply I was able to simply push the change of the region following this tutorial: https://l.messenger.com/l.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fforum.xda-developers.com%2Fsmartwatch%2Fgear-sport%2Fchanging-region-samsung-gear-sport-r600-t3771324&h=AT3gL1EJTD_LzPupE_pcei82eesT1O0MKpVQZGSgoTro4ovlL9xync975ADDZ67vB2UNTW7C_4dmZ5WRKU3anMSWN8dssfrihNs8SZH3LfhrIVqv-wn2MKbt5fW4K_jCN3hLiObSfgARdyN3SlnrVw no need to fuss about finding the right software or even cracking into the watch it was dead easy and wireless.
Hope this helps!
I've tried the region reset on my SM-R500, but I can't find the Irish (or UK) network providers in the list when doing the reset. I've got a watch that was set to UAE, so I'm guessing that specific firmware doesn't come with Irish regional settings? Any workaround to this? Is it possible to flash a suitable firmware and if so, where would I find the correct firmware?

CSC question

Hey everyone,
I realize that posts regarding CSC are a dime a dozen, I've searched through a lot but this stuff is somehow really tough to piece together. I rarely post because I normally find everything I need but here goes.
I bought my note 10+ in Slovakia from Orange. The phone's CSC is ORS/ORS,ORS/ORS, which I think is part of the OGC multi CSC. I'm guessing ORS stands for Orange Slovakia. However, I'm using a Telekom SIM card. I'm still waiting for my android 10 update, but I've noticed that Android 10 has already come out for the Telekom Note 10+. The CSC in that rom is TMS (which I think stands for Telekom Slovakia), which is a part of the ODX multi CSC . In the past I would just flash an update from another country, but from what I gather, this is somehow... riskier? nowadays.
So my question is, could I lose warranty if I were to flash that TMS rom? Or is there a possibility that it would mess something up? I figure that that's the rom that is as close to mine as possible ? but I'm not sure. Any advice would be much appreciated.
Hi, i have same Note10+ buyed from Orange Slovakia. I flashed Multi-CSC FW ROM (ORX) from samfirm, but CSC is set to default AUT. For change CSC you must buy 2 credits from samkey.

If its hong kong variant then it should have TGY csc
Moreover, you can change csc with samkey(no root required). Buy from ebay

May be after rooting, it can be done but it may corrupt imei as only few users reported this.
Samkey method is very easy. Before buying, contact them and provide all details of your phone to check whether it support your phone or not.

No you are wrong. TGY or BRI are basically same.. Only network connectivity change like 5g, volte, wifi calling support. Don't know about chc but you can change it to tgy or bri.
I read your posts in another csc thread. You should be on default theme. Then install apk. It will show in themes. Then u can change csc

Question A52s - change CSC by factory reseting with a SIM?

Hi all,
I purchased an A52s 5G (SM-A528B/DS, snapdragon version) last week. I never had a Samsung before so I’m learning now about CSC and such.
I noticed that I don’t have the call recording function even though my country should support it (ILO). As it turns out the device has XSG CSC (I guess it’s a non-official parallel import).
I gathered information around the forums and I’m trying to understand if I can change the CSC by factory reseting and doing the device setup while my ILO SIM card is installed.
Apologies if my questions are stupid and the answer is obvious, but I couldn’t piece it together.
I’m trying to avoid tripping Knox to retain my warranty.
I read somewhere that ILO and XSG are part of the same multi-CSC group (OJM) and that it should work?
I read somewhere else that it no longer works on One UI 3.1/Android 11 versions?
I read somewhere else again that samkey may be a viable solution?
So should I try just by factory resetting the phone? Or try samkey? Or?
Is there any way to change CSC on the fly and avoid having to factory reset the device?
Thanks so much in advance,
Tal
I used to require a SIM to change the CSC but was able to do without it this time.
Doesn't trip Knox. There's a list of countries that details which have call recording built in.

To anyone who might encounter this in the future, My phone was bought trough GoMobile a parallel importer in Israel who didn't have call recordings available although the official one had.
I used SAMKEY in order to change the CSC into "ILO" the Israeli CSC and it worked getting me back the recordings and even had gotten OTA's after it.
I bought an A52s 5G on Amazon UK, and the model that arrived was a Romanian one. I find two things very odd: there is nothing outside the box to indicate that the device is not a UK one (product code would suffice), and when opening the box (which was untampered, as expected) it had a UK plug charger, adding to the fact that the device was destined for the UK market. The back of the device shows a sign for compliance with UK CA standards, and booting it first time, it greeted me in English. However, soon after I figured out the shortcomings and I found that CSC is set to ROM. Factory resetting the phone with a UK sim didn't make much difference however this time the phone greeted me in Romanian. While I've resolved the issue with.. the usual method, I find it dodgy and either the seller went to great lengths to hide the originating country or Samsung is creating these devices targetting Romania but actually making them look British, for.. reasons? Both possibilities are weird.

Did you use it on Galaxy A52s 5G? Which firmware date version did you use to change the CSC?
I wanna go back to my original CSC.

did you succeed? do you have call recording?
For some reason I've never been able to buy a Samsung that used a single sku CSC.
Even with ICCID locked devices they always shipped with the multi-csc/multi-csc2, so I've always been able to use a SIM Card to change out carriers unless the EFS/CSC partitions blocked it partially.
And even in those couple cases, I've always been able to cross-flash carrier firmware for that device to switch networks when need be.
This method even allowed me to use my AT&T locked Galaxy Note5 with T-Mobile Firmware. The only bug was the AT&T Modem's lack of hardware support for all of the TMO network bands.
Other than that. I even bested the Geek Squad at Best Buy...
This method worked on my A32x 5G.
