Yes you are right, it need multi-CSC firmware to change the CSC.
Does anyone know how I can change the country from Korea to UK please?
Thanks.

Go to the Menu > Other Tools > CSC Changer and see a list of available CSC in your device.
If there is XSG in the list, you can change to that CSC. Otherwise you have to download that firmware (using Menu > Firmware Browser) and flash via Odin.

What firmware did you install via Odin?
Find the firmware for XSG (UAE) by open the menu Firmware Browser, enter XSG into the CSC textbox and tap Go button to search.

You may brick your device by flashing firmware from another model. So no need to risk yourself.
You can find ALL AVAILABLE firmwares for your model (N915G) by leave the CSC textbox empty (blank) and tap Go button to search.
As there is no N915G firmware for UAE now, there is nothing to do. You have 2 options: wait until it becomes available, or try the firmware for your model from another region. I see the following regions are currently available: Australia, India, Singapore.
Got the idea, thanks
Did you know, that...
the Usage History (Headset Connect counter, Charger Connect counter, S Pen Detach counter) remain unchanged even if you factory reset the device.
New update v2.1.0:
- Update Color database.
- Some improvements and optimizations.
(including: install to the external storage, auto close the running service when the app exits,...).
thx a lot this is the best app that i used ever
Hi all,

Is it safe to flash A505F firmware on the A505FN device? As far as I know, the only difference is NFC.
And is it possible to void the warranty by doing this?
I tried Smart Switch a few times, but no updates.

Hi thanks for your reply.
Should I need to remove all accounts, and make a factory reset first?
Smart Switch only will provide you the newest firmware in the same line, not an option to use other different firmware from a different region.
Ever is recommended to do a factory reset/format data before to "switch" to other firmware and make a backup before to restore it in just minutes with SS.
Install Phone Info(Samsung) and there you will find the CSC availables for your device before to change the firmware (most of the international models are multi_CSC compatible), search for the regions and compare them here https://www.****************/2017/0...specific-product-code-csc-and-country-region/ if some of them is convenient for you then you can flash it, check before your bootloader version, I think all are now in v1 but check it before to go further.

Yes, you usually can (I switched a lot of times) but you could find some issues regarding to radio/baseband depending on how different they´re.
Take a backup before using Smart Switch, take note of your actual firmware in a safe place if something goes wrong and don´t forget to enable USB debugging and OEM unlock before to go.

F firmware on an FN device should be ok afaik, but I believe you'll loose NFC
Also keep in mind that INS csc has this string in cscfeature_network.xml
<CscFeature_Message_ConfigImeiTracker>+919560345888,+918424098931,+919176905802</CscFeature_Message_ConfigImeiTracker>
I remember that this was a problem on custom roms for the old A-series since all roms for some reason added INS csc, so a bunch of users in europe got charged extra for messages to india if they didn't remove that from cscfeatures..
Not sure if it still acts the same, but I can confirm that the string is there in INS csc for A50.

Thank you.
There is finally firmware with July patch for FN versions of this device, so probably I'll wait few days, because only 5 countries in Europe got an update to the newest version, skipping June security patch, but I hope we'll have new features in the camera.
I've tried to debrand my phone by flashing open market firmware (XEO, Poland). I downloaded the newest version of Odin, flashed it but now my CSC under settings says OPV/OPV, OPV/EUX/OPV. OPV is my carrier's CSC, I'm wondering what that EUX is. I've looked it up on Google and it seems like I'm not alone, seems like Samsung changed something and older methods no longer work. The question is - will I still receive updates released for my carrier or I'm screwed for good? Phone INFO app says my active CSC is OPV. I'm running S20+ 5G (G986B) Exynos variant.
Same problem here, I've flashed it with XEO POLAND G986BXXU1ATBM firmware using Odin3 v3.14.1_3B_PatcheD, few minutes later it showed "PASS" and nothing changed. Same branded firmware after reboot..
It seems, that many more 'branded' CSCs are now part of Multi-CSC. For me, this is DTM (T-Mobile DE). It osed to not be part of multi-CSC but it is now part of OXM.
This means, that you can not force it anymore, as you already ARE having the exact same firmware with the 'branded' CSC. Just checked, OPV is in deed part of OXM now.
In the Ultra Section is a thread showing the CSCs belonging to OXM: https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...galaxy-s20-ultra-g988b-firmwares-5g-t4060443/
I have not yet found out / gotten an answer from anybody how to change CSC. Samkey also is not supporting the S20 series ATM - dont know, if this will change.

What I have worked out is that when you flash a multi-CSC firmware file you end running the CSC one letter earlier in the alphabet out of the. Available multi-CSC list
E.g. I had a VOD branded S105G and flashed BTU firmware, and ended up with TEL CSC
I also tried flashing BTU on an H3G branded A70 and ended up with EVF CSC
The original branded product CSC also never changes

This should not be necessary? Doesn't that trip Knox, despite original Samsung Firmware?

Since now it's part of Multi CSC, does that mean I will receive updates faster? I can see other polish carrier's CSC are listed as single so I assume they are kind of separate firmware, am I right?
Honestly I do not know, if the respective CSC will be getting OTAs at the same time.
However, you can always flash manually with HOME_CSC, that is true.

Enable OEM unlock does not trip Knox. As long as you flash official Samsung firmware files in Odin Knox is never tripped
My own personal experience on S10 and above is you cannot flash a different CSC with OEM Unlock disabled
(Flash completes successfully but CSC doesn't change)
When changing from one e.g. branded csc to multi csc with the S10+, this worked fine without enabling oem unlock. Well, anyway. Flashing OXM multi CSC over OXM multi CSC will not change anything, right?

I found that you have to be on a single CSC before flash to multi-CSC and also you don't always end up on the CSC you expected
e.g. Flash BTU on a VOD product and you end up on TEL CSC (one letter in alphabet below VOD) and not on BTU

Hi Everyone,
I'm from Australia and recently bought a SM-G781B off eBay...
Turns out it was a UAE variant and Samsung Pay is all messed up.
I've flashed the phone a few times now using ODIN, trying to get the right CSC correct for Australia (G781BXXU2CUB5) for either of the following CSC's;
XSA (Generic Australia), OPS (Optus), VAU (Vodafone), or TEL (Telstra).
The issue I have is all the Stock Firmware's I've download and flashed keeps registering my CSC as XME (Malaysia)...
Phone INFO app doesn't even detect any other CSC's in the package
I've tried downloading the correct Firmware packs from the following and none gives me the correct CSC for Australia;
https://samfrew.com/
https://www.sammobile.com/
https://samfw.com/
App: Frija Firmware
Does anyone know why this is happening, or can upload/direct me to correct firmware either XSA, OPS (Optus), VAU (Vodafone), or TEL (Telstra)?
I'm totally at a loss now...
Any help would be much appreciated, thanks heaps in advance.
from what I've read recently Samsung has stopped people being able to switch as of android 11.
maybe... I stress MAYBE according to your countryman Hugh Jefferys, if there's a lower version of firmware on the same binary number you might be able to downgrade and then that might mean you can switch CSC.
this is someone who's never even tried changing CSC telling you this so your own research is obviously the only thing to put some faith in.
good luck
XSG (UAE) firmware is part of the OJM multi CSC, whereas XSA/OPS/TEL are part of the OLM multi CSC. This means that it is not possible to simply flash XSA in Odin as the multi CSCs are different, you would first have to use the combination ROM to change from OJM to OLM and then you would be able to flash any OLM CSC firmware, whether that be Australia, Singapore, Malaysia, or Thailand. I'm an Aussie myself, I got my phone from JB Hi Fi but switched it to Thailand CSC since XSA updates are horrendously slow (Samsung Pay does still work on Thailand CSC as does VoLTE/VoWiFi). For your case though, I'm afraid you are out of luck in terms of changing the multi CSC with the combination ROM, if you are on One UI 3.1 then the bootloader version is U2 whereas the combination ROM bootloader version is U1, so you would not be able to flash it anyway. Also, I tried to flash the combination ROM while my bootloader was still on U1 because I wanted to change from OLM to OXM (Romania CSC) for fastest updates, but Odin was not allowing the flash first because of "please get the approval to flash factory images (pit)" which I fixed, then "please get the approval to flash factory images (abl)" at which point I gave up. So as I said before, sorry but I don't think there's a lot you can do Unless a U2 bootloader version combination ROM is leaked which may or may not happen and you can get around the Odin not allowing you to flash it issues, the phone will unfortunately be stuck on UAE firmware (unless there are other countries part of OJM which you could switch to for faster updates).
Hopefully this helps you.
I have the same model! I changed my CSC but for some reason chat features in messaging app doesn't work now..other than that, all's good..

Your software version is was originally XSA, so you wouldn’t have any issues flashing it with XSA and defaulting to XSA instead of another region. The CSC will automatically default back to XSA.
Mine unfortunately defaults to Malaysia XME when flashed with XSA firmware.

Thanks for the detailed reply.
From what I’ve tested, I have no issues with flashing from XSG OJM Multi to XSA OLM Multi. You can do this provided the FIrmware security number is the same as your current revision. You can’t however flash to a lower security value. See image attached.
The current firmware security value at the moment is “2” running One UI 3.1, Android 11. We can’t downgrade to any security firmware version “1” types with Android 10. If we could, then you can use multiple methods to manually change the CSC .i.e through Google Dialer or IMEI trick.
All the Firmwares at the moment are still Muti regional, unfortunately there doesn’t seem to be a way to change the CSC manually even though they are Multi regional.
All XSA firmwares I’ve downloaded and flashed will keep defaulting to XME as that’s the default unless my original CSC was XSA to begin with for it to detect.
I think the only option at the moment is to use SAMKEY, unless someone comes with with a new Android 11 method...
The other option is to root the phone and ADB to change the CSC, however this would trigger and break KNOX securities.
I did check Samkeys update log and they state it’s supported now, this method wouldn’t trigger KNOX;
VERSION 3.63.9 (PLANET EARTH'S FIRST)
- Added support for G780F (Galaxy S20 FE) ALL BIT
- Added support for G781B (Galaxy S20 FE 5G) ALL BIT
- Fixed FAIL(16) on Slow PC's
- Fixed FAIL(20) on G780F
They’re actually up to VERSION 3.71.9 now.
Might be worth a try.

I can confirm SamKEY works on One UI 3.1, unfortunately it is paid but it does work. You can get an account for cheap from eBay with 1 credit on it which is all you need to do the CSC change. Using it I was able to change from XSA to THL (with no data wipe at all which really surprised me).

Trust me you wouldn't want XSA firmware anyway, the updates are terribly slow for it for the S20 FE 5G (not sure about 4G), it tends to get security patches a month after they should've came out, for example it got the March security patch in April which is pretty awful imo. I think it's the slowest CSC in general for the G781B, if you're on OLM multi CSC you're much better off switching to THL where the updates are a lot faster.

That's interesting, I didn't think it was possible to change between multi CSCs like this without the combination ROM (how you were able to switch from OJM to OLM). If you try to switch to an OXM multi CSC such as DBT or ROM from OLM multi CSC, what happens? Does it work? I'll be honest I never tried it myself but didn't have the motivation to try it anyway as I heard it wouldn't work.

Hi There,
Yes, im sure it works provided the security firmware version is the same as I mentioned above.
I also changed to BTU to test.
I can't test for you any longer as I've returned the device for a refund. Will go buy an AUS XSA Variant.
Attached are the images of my original and changed firmware for your reference.

That's very interesting, when you get the XSA variant can you try and see if you are able to flash a CSC such as ROM or DBT on the phone successfully using Odin? I would love to know if it was possible for this to work or not, I'm on THL myself after changing from XSA and did not think it was possible to switch to a different multi CSC (from OLM to OXM).

Yeah that's true no 8GB variant sold here as far as I know not even on the Samsung website and we don't even get eSIM support either
Is there an update/workaround on this issue?
are there any methods that work without samKey?
Noticed that the dialer app that was once able to record calls, is now recording only me talking, since the latest OTA updates on the stock firmware (updated to oneUI 3.1 and Android 11).
I'm also on XSG (OJM) firmware and want to change CSC to enable call recording on galaxy S20 FE 5G (model G781B).
Would love to know how can it be done.

thanks!

I'm sure by now you've already sorted this, but this is for future people with a need to change CSC
The SamFW FRP Tool can tell you which CSCs are available on your phone already, and can automatically have the CarrierPreConfig service trigger a CSC update. Only need to enable USB Debugging. No root, no reinstall.
But if your phone doesn't have the CSC you need already, download Frija, or another firmware download tool, you'll be able to download and install an OXM Multi CSC firmware (such as XSA, OPS, TEL or VAU), and install it via ODIN tool.
Be sure to select HOME_CSC to keep your data, and backup first.

Thank you, mate! I have just registered here specifically to thank you You really were the last random post I found in the internet that helped me to solve this unflashable state of my S9. Thank you again! <O
Obviously without a device to flash them on, these are provided for purposes of extraction and tinkering only. If anyone wants a USERDATA for a specific carrier, let me know and I can get it.
Zips are compressed extra small for space and bandwidth savings. The default Windows extractor can't handle it, so you'll need a 3rd party tool like 7zip, WinRAR, etc
Happy poking around!

Could you perhaps help me figure out how to grab latest for the SM-990B? I'm guessing the attached means I'm out of luck for now?

You don't have G990U or G990U1 so you're in the wrong thread
