I have the i9000T HKTTT version of the Galaxy S.
In KIES, the original firmware was JG5/JG7/JG4.
After a stupid action, I bricked it but managed to get it in Download mode but flashed it with the wrong firmware. I am currently using the European firmware and got the CODE and CSC consistent with the default one but the European firmware has the PHONE version of jg1.
Where can I find jg7? Would piecing together these firmwares essentially get me back to the original factory settings? How do I set my CSC?
Thanks
take look at
http://www.samfirmware.com
you have to register (its free) there to have access to the firmware section.
regards
I have already been there. Either I don't know how to read the labels or they aren't present.
I am also stuck with a half-bricked i9000T... my carrier is Telcel, from Mexico. Does anyone know if there are any proper firmwares for latin american i9000T's?
Hey! I´m from mexico too. I have a i9000T with TELCEL and I have the firmware XXJVS from samfirmware working without problems, everything work fine, also 3G.
And I have tried a lot of Roms from the I9000 forums and almost everyone works fine too.

Hello everyone, I bought my phone from amazon and its originally from Brazil (its unlocked) BUT now since I'm trying to fix a WiFi issue ( I can't turn it on) , I discovered that the firmwares has the XX code for the region which I made a search for and its for Poland and etc, but deffinately not Brazil, and I live in Bulgaria . I had the UB code (for Brazil) when I was with the KitKat android. And I'm confused now which firmwares should I reflash to try to restore that system file for the WiFi ? Could that cause the problem with the WiFi? I need to say my phone updated by itself I didn't do anything. Thank you
P.S. I'm with 5.0.1. Lollipop all stock firmwares and everything, rooted, Galaxy S4 GT-I9500
Try here. Since you're unlocked, you're not limited to ROMs from a specific region and can flash any package you desire. The one I provided the link to however is the closest one to Bulgaria that apparently does not have carrier branding.
Thank you very much for the fast respond I will try that
Hey Guys!
I have a question regarding stock roms. I've been looking at SamMobile for an official release of Lollipop here in Philippines, the only download I can see is for a local carrier Globe. Will it cause problems if I flash this on my international N9005?
I also want to ask the same question for an S4 I9505, but it's the other way around; the phone is from Globe, network locked, and I am thinking of flashing an international version ROM. Will this cause problems? I know this isn't the right forum but just in case someone would like to answer.
Thank you!

1. Yes, you will have problems with the radios. It's not importat where you live that what CSC have your device. Install this APP and look for your CSC. Go to Sammobile.com, look for your csc, download and flash the latest stock rom for your device via ODIN. (Pic attached)
2. Regarding GT-i9505: Yes, it will cause lose of signal. The best you can do is unlock it by IMEI.

I flashed a rom from Brazil. Everything works great it's just that the bloatware included is annoying. I figured the best option to flasha ROM from my country but the only one with a Lollipop ROM is carrier specific.
Samsung allows users to use roms from their own region interchangeably. In most cases, even globally.
I've never encountered issues with radio or signal loss when flashing different providers and countries in my own region, and I've had thousands of people flash and use all sort of different EU firmwares. (you can find the region on the sticker on the box.)
(US users have different devices with real carrier locks, so those are excluded.)

I am currently studying in China and a friend of mine from France came back after the last holiday with a GS4 I9505 from home. Apparently she was having trouble getting it to work on Chinese networks, so she took it into some place to have them fix it. Apparently they rooted it, changed the ROM and did who knows what else. After that, she said the phone not only wouldn't connect, but it was also very unstable, crashing constantly. I told her I have a GS4 (I have the I9505G) and could help her restore her phone. She wanted the regular stock Samsung software, no root or anything. So I used Sammobile.com to download a French (NRJ) version of the 5.0.1 firmware and flashed it to the phone. It appeared to work well, but when I put my China Unicom SIM in it, it would only connect to 2G. On my I9505G with stock 5.0, 3G connects without any problems. According to the Wikipedia GS4 page, the 3G frequencies used by the China Unicom variant are also used by the I9505 and I9505G. So when using the same SIM, I assume they should both have access to 3G. Would the French firmware be interfering with this? Do different firmwares have different modems that would be affecting this?
At the very least, I was able to restore the phone and get it to connect to 2G, but if I can completely fix the phone for her, I think that would be preferable. Any advice or shared knowledge about this issue is much appreciated.
i have S4 three UK version and i downloaded uk lollipop with different csc and pda and modem, but still it works like a charm
Long time lurker, first time poster. I want to express my thanks to everyone who is making this community so great.
I've purchased a S7 edge recently and I noticed I have the TPH (Portugal) CSC code. I'd hope to change it to a Belgian CSC. Two things come to mind:
1 - When I scoured the sammobile site for a suitable Belgian firmware, the only one I found was PRO, which seems to be linked to the Proximus carrier, which is different from my carrier. Is it safe to assume that the PRO firmware is the only Belgian firmware around and therefore not limited to be used with other carriers? Or should I opt for a Luxemburg CSC instead?
2 - I have been looking at the forums for clear instructions on how to perform this, but haven't found this specifically for the S7 (edge). Could someone explain on what I need to do? I'm assuming I just have to download the firmware and use Odin to flash the 4 files, but do i need to set some specific options on Odin before flashing?
Your input is much appreciated.
totally same question. up
This app should let you to change CSC even without root https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.zigbrick.galaxyregionunlock
The only way to change the CSC on non-rooted devices is flashing the designated CSC file through ODIN. However, there are limits. In case of Belgium I did only find the version for Proximus, too. But the PRO one is a multi-csc file (VFG Germany) and if you flash this you will end up with Vodafone Germany (VD2), a branded rom. Without root that's the only option you have. If you flash LUX then you have LUX which makes me wonder why you even want to change it as TPH is unbranded and you don't gain anything...
Hi guys,
Sorry I just need a quick answer to this and I can't seem to find a straight answer anywhere. I have a G935F on 3 UK firmware and I want to change the firmware to either BTU or XEU, as the updates are ridiculously slow on this software version. I have read in multiple places that the CSC code is hard coded and cannot be changed, and then other places say this is merely cosmetic and flashing a new firmware will enable you to get OTA updates from the new desired CSC code.
Please can somebody shed some light on this for me, if I flash BTU or XEU will I be able to get updates as normal, and also which is better to flash XEU or BTU. If anybody can advise would either of these packages allow VoLTE and Wifi Calling to work? 3 supports them on the firmware I am currently on, but I was unsure if unbranded firmwares would support this.
Thanks!
