Hey guys , first sorry if this question has been already answered and if it has been, i couldn't find it anywhere on any post.
The thing is, I moved from an S6 to an S9 (the s6 was with a tpa csc, then I flashed an indian firmware because i wanted Nougat) the S9 has an ARO csc stuck on february update and I wanted to know if i can flash a TPA firmware (I've read about the OXM CSC and the ARO and TPA share this "feature" which is kinda new to me) and if the procedure remains the same: Odin, download mode, files, flash or there are new steps to do this .
Thanks in advance,
Gonzalo

Same issue here. The SM-G9600 (ARO) is stuck on February 1st security patch. AR$26000 y que no se actualice, que bronca!
I have the same SM-G9600 (ARO) with the September security patch (you have to download CHO version from SamMobile)

Just like Federico says, flash a CHO or TPA csc firmware and forger about ARO this one might never get past feb patch (I did it with a TPA one and now i'm as covered as the SM-G9600 is)

I assume it voids the guaranty right? You keep getting regular OTAs or am I going to need to flash them manually everytime a new firmware comes out?

you assume wrong, as long as the FW is samsung's official it doesn't void knox or the warranty, concerning the updates topic, in my case since the csc didn't change (don't know why) i have to flash each update myself...

WWWOOOOWWW! Nice! Still 10 months to release an upgrade
Hey Samsung Experts ! :laugh:
I'm a newbie to this CSC stuff But I'm used to flashing via odin and firmwares switching.
My question is like this : I live in Morocco and I have a Samsung S9 Exynos Sm-G960f ( dual Sim ) with an active PRT csc ( poland and I guess it is branded ) when I first got the phone a month ago I got october security patch OTA and installed it. Now my phone says it is up to date ; yet , it is stuck at october security patch. Is it a CSC related problem or poland users hadn't received any OTA ever since october ?
I want to update my phone to Pie but I don't know which firmware to use.
I downloaded the newer ISREALI one with january security patch and ILO csc.
I'm intending to flash it. And if I flash csc instead of Home_csc will my phone work normally ? I mean no IMEI or network related problems ? and will My PRT CSC be replaced with ILO ?
I have read about combination files method but it is way complicated.
thank you.
Could somebody here possibly help me out with this ?
I will be thankful , buds.

Hello,
I have a Galaxy S20+ 5G SM-G986B with CSC: XSG (United Arab Emirates) and have the last OTA update G986BXXU5CUA3 with changelist 20699066 but the Security patch date is 2021-01-01. I live in Romania and here we have ROM CSC and the last update is G986BXXS6CUA8 with the same changelist 20699066 but Security patch date is 2021-02-01.
Is there any differences between them if the changelists are the same?
1. Should i change my CSC to ROM? What benefits will i have?
2. What is the best method to change the CSC? Will i have the option to update OTA if i change my CSC?
Thanks.

1. You do not need to change the CSC. But to receive OTA updates, you will need the stock) original firmware running the CSC of your region.
2. There are different ways to change CSC. Keep in mind that changing the CSC will wipe your data. So backup everything you need before.
One method is to flash a firmware with Odin on PC via USB cable to your phone using the CSC file you want.
Another method is described in this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/free-csc-change-apk-for-s20.4116015/
