Hey Guys -
First off thanks to everyone helping with development on our Galaxy Tabs. I've just got mine earlier this week and I have been loving every minute of it. Anyway, being the tinkerer I am, I decided to flash JM6 to my device a few days ago. What a world that opened up. The rom was awesome - so much better than what I had on my stock T-Mobile tab.
I noticed a new thing called "Samsung Apps", which when I clicked on it insisted that there were no apps available. Reading around I noticed that it seems that what Samsung Apps will offer you is based explicitly off your CSC code.
If you flash JM6 with the CSC file it came with, you actually get a Multi-CSC although it is defaulted to KOR (Korea). Apparantly the Korea CSC doesn't have any Samsung Apps available to it.
So in researching I found out that you can actually change your CSC, presuming you have the Multi-CSC flashed through Odin, from the phone menu. Follow these steps to make the change:
WARNING: Changing the CSC does a factory reset on the device, so ensure you have all your apps and system settings backed up!
1) Open the dialer
2) Dial *#272*imei# (replace 'imei' with your devices' IMEI number)
At this point you'll have a listing of all available CSC's on your device. If you have the Multi-CSC from JM6, you'll see a listing of these:

XEF - France (Orange F, F SFR, BOUYGTEL, NRJ (SFR), Virgin, Tele2, Auchan, Carrefour, NRJ (ORANGE), Orange (340 01), Orange (647 00), Debitel, Leclerc, Digicel)
XEO - Poland (Plus, Era, Heyah, Orange, Play)
XEU - UK & IRE (O2 UK, Orange UK, T-Mobile, Virgin Mobile, Vodafone UK, TESCO, BT Mobile, H3G, Asda, O2 IRL, Vodafone IE, Meteor, H3G IE, Tesco Mobile Ireland)
KOR - Korea (SEC Test)

CPW - UK & IRE (O2 UK, Orange UK, T-Mobile, Virgin Mobile, Vodafone UK, TESCO, BT Mobile, H3G, Asda, O2 IRL, Vodafone IE, Meteor, H3G IE, Tesco Mobile Ireland)
I switched from KOR to CPW, which gave me the following four apps in Samsung Apps:
Vlingo Words to Action
Radio Companion
blinkx Beat
Need for Speed: Shift
I didn't experiment with any of the others, so I'm not sure if they would yield you a different pool of Apps...all I was really interested in obtaining was NFS:Shift (which was 100+mb by the way...but DAMN it looks good).
I hope this makes it easy for some of you interested in getting access to the admittedly small pool of Samsung Apps.
Any questions feel free to ask and I'll do my best to help you!
Good info, thanks for posting this!
Anyone try this in the US or Canada, is it possible to access Samsung apps?
Im on the xeu csc and have 11 apps in the Samsung apps and have had asphalt 5, nfs shift and loads more over the last few weeks.
Also got £200 worth of movies, mp3s, ebooks and games by registering my imei on Samsung.com/galaxytab

I am in the US, my tab is a T-Mobile tab. It is very possible to access Samsung Apps Changing your CSC to a supported one (such as CPW) will give you them.
Just out of interest, it would appear that a JJ ROM does nothing when this is entered, not entirely unsurprising if the ROM only has data for a single CSC.
Thanks alterbridge.
In my haste to upgrade my ROM to JH6, I forgot to backup my installed Samsung Apps. Now I get back my Asphalt 5, AND Need for Speed.
Here's a list of the Apps I got when changing my JM6 CSC from KOR to XEU
Smart Pack
Healthy Delicious
Samgung Football
Visit Britian
V3
Vlingo Words to Action
Need for Speed Shift.
Visit London
Sky News
Investment Week
WHSmith Books
Asphalt 5 HD
Radio Companion
blinkx Beat
Where can i get a EUR ( for my greek tab ) CSC ?
Yes I got only KOR as an option :-(

Bell Tab on JMA. KOR --> CPW yielded 4 apps for DL including NFS: Shift. Haven't tried it yet but that is pretty sweet...
I have a T-Mobile TAB in the US and it is flashed with JMA. When I enter the code the only option I have is KOR and the only app available in Samsung apps is blinkx Beat.
If I am flashed with JMA full which I am then why is KOR the only option I have? BTW blinkx Beat just showed up like yesterday and I have been on JMA now since it was posted on samfirmware like back on the 5th or something..
Nevermind I used Roto's upgrade. After I re-flashed with JMA full I have all of the CSC options.

I have JM6.
I had a couple of problems with formatting trying to get to JMA, so went back to JM6 because I knew it worked.
But then Samsung Apps and Readers Hub stopped working with many problems.
I just did what was suggested on here and changed to CPW as one of the options and....wow....everything working and 15, yes 15!!! apps in Samsung Apps, some of which I have never heard of.
Many thanks.
Did you have the problems that Readers Hub didn't update?? Because I have upgraded to JM6 (coming from JJ3), changed the CSC from KOR to XEU, 4 apps showed up in Samsung Apps app, but still Readers Hub force closes when it tries to update Pressdisplay, Zinio and Kobo.
Then I tried to change from XEU to CPW, no additional apps added in Samsung Apps, still 4 listed as on XEU csc, and in addition still force close on Readers Hub updates..... any idea why this is, and if the Readers Hub problem even is csc related ?!
I'm on a Euro GT, XXJM6 in The Netherlands, with t-mobile as dutch carrier...
jm6 has the readers hub update problem so changing csc wont fix it

Hello am very new to android. Have just got a I5800 that was originally on t mobile. Its unlocked now but i want to flash a generic official rom. I know how to root it if needs be. Could someone advise me on how to go about the debranding.
Thanks in advance

Go to samfirmware.com there you'll find roms (official). Search here in the forum for a flashing guide...
ok i have just found the flashing guide.
i forgot to ask about the CSC. i have a diffrent windows mobile samsung (omnia lite b7300) and when i flashed this for the first time i never knew about the CSC.
my question is this. i assume flashing one package will also flash the CSC, and on the winmo omnia lite the CSC had details of the operators that the data settings are automatically recognised for.
is this the same for android devices and if so does anyone have a UK English CSC for the i5800 or is there any way i can back it up and reflash or am i just worrying about nothing
thanks for your help
Well if you're asking that if you flash one package, it will also flash the csc? Probable and if you want a csc for i5800 just download jpf.
yeah looks like JPF has a english CSC.. hope it has provider settings for the uk lol.
am gonna go try flash when the firmwares downloaded hopefully il be ok.
thanks everyone for your fast replys
anyone got any english i5800 roms with CSC included before i smash it out of frustration. loved this phone before this
found the language option but i still need a english uk default rom or csc because of service proivider settings and when i hard reset
Well download a rom from here and flash and you should be on froyo in the u.k and if not try finding an XW rom

just found that you can change the CSC and product code same way you do with another phone (the SGS i think)
*#272*imei#
where imei is your imei
also hard resets, but on reboot it asked me if i was o2 prepay postpay or tesco mobile.
PERFECT!
off to see wat KIES says.
EDIT :
This device cannot be updated
PDA:JPM / PHONE : JP4 / CSC : JPF (XEU)
Not that that matters i have the right csc
Hi there!
Does any body has a values from Irish O2 operator for PDA/Phone/CSC and product code.
Trying to find them ...
What exactly do you mean? If you are trying to switch a phone from another country or want to check whether it's set up for Ireland, try *#272* (your imei number without the brackets)# This will tell you what region, should be XEU for Ireland. Post exactly what is you are looking to do.

It shows me O2I. But I've reflashed my device by Multi-CSC firmware and changed it to this value. Cos previous firmware I've used from some of Nordic countries.
I wonna reflashed back to stock firmware and need to know which one is stock for Irish O2.
I think you need to know which firmware was originally on your phone i.e. Froyo 2.2 for example. Then download the stock firmware from here for that version. If you purchased your phone since October 2010 I think it would have been Froyo 2.1 or possibly Froyo 2.2 As I said earlier, on your dialer put in *#272* followed by your phone imei number, then # This will tell you whether you are on XEU which you should be for Ireland. If you have Multi CSC on the phone you should be able to change it to XEU if needed. Why do you want to go back to the stock rom anyway?

Correct. But not only 2.2, any firmware. And then could download latest one by using Samsung Fus downlaoder.

Thanks Odia but I'm looking for the first SGS I9000
Ok,what version was on your phone when purchased? What version is on your phone now? What region is your phone set to now (see my earlier posts on how to do this)?
You won't be able to download the correct stock rom from here unless you know what version was on it when bought. For warranty, it should not make much difference unless your phone is set to a region other than Ireland.
I'm still struggling to know what it is exactly that you are trying to do, your phone has been flashed,right? What version was on before flashing and what version did you flash onto the phone?
Just thought of something, are you missing some of the provider specific apps? Is your phone rooted? Is your phone unlocked? Are you looking to return it to original status including O2 specific apps?

About The Difference Between The Carries Roms
Different from other Samsung devices, all the Israeli carrier roms for the SGS3 are the same!
It doesn't matter which one you download, you get the same settings, apps, MODEM, kernel, recovery - everything is the SAME!
After you download the rom and flash it you can set the CSC of your phone to the carrier you are using (if you want to do that).
For more details how to do that continue reading the guide.
How To Flash Official Roms
Download your selected rom
Double click the .exe file to extract the .tar file
Flash the rom using Odin. If you don't know how - search for it!
You do not need root the flash these roms!!
How To Change The CSC To Your Carrier Settings (OPTIONAL)
If you want to revert back to your carrier settings (bootanimation, garbage apps, etc.), you will need to manually change your CSC.
NOTICE: This action will wipe ALL your data! Including pictures, music, backups, apps, setting.
Launch your stock dialer
Type in the code
Code:
*#06#
This is your IMEI number. Write it down.
Go back to your stock dialer and type in the code -
Code:
*#272*XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX#
Where XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX is your IMEI number.
You will be prompt with a selection of CSC codes. These are your carrier code. Select the one you want:
ILO - Sanny (Clean rom, no junk)
PTR - Orange (Partner)
CEL - Cellcom
PCL - Pelephone
MIR - Hot Mobile (Mirs)
The device will reboot and WIPE ALL YOUR DATA!! (See notice above)
When your device boots you will see all your carrier junk.

Hope its gonna help you - if you have Israeli operator rom and wish to change it to other operator or for your case to SUNNY clean rom then make these steps and you will get your phone without the operator's garbage
1 - Open the dialing screen and type this to get the IMEI code:
*#06#
2 - Write down the IMEI code so you can copy it for later use.
3 - Back to the dialing screen and type the IMEI from step 2 in the following format:
*#272*XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX#
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX = replace this with your IMEI
4 - You'll get the following selection screen:
choose one of the operators :
ILO - SUNNY ORIGINAL CLEAN ISRAELI ROM
PTR - ORANGE
CEL - CELLCOM
PCL - PELEPHONE
MIR - HOT MOBILE
After you choose your operator the phone will restart - make sure your battery is full !
NOTE: - once you selecting the operator code all of your DATA will ERASED and LOST!!!!
yeah yeah i know - bad English ;p

In galaxy 3 there is only one ROM for Israeli market. any Israeli operator's ROM you download from sammobile is the same file. The way you choose the right operator for you is the way i mentioned before, Even if you on Israeli ROM you can do those steps and get clean sunny ROM without flashing and etc... (sunny orange cellcom or whatever you choose)

I think the original rom (even in israel) is better then any other ****ty rom out there.. I'm new in android and replaced IOS after 4 years to android. tried so many roms for android and some modification and they all are ****ty and full of bugs (unlike the IOS) . what i am asking for is a good phone to meet my needs which is mosty entertainment needs. games news movies and so on. the original rom is the most stable rom yet !! so dont bother with other roms unless you are bored to death.
Have a great day
and dont get me wrong - i LOVE my SGS3
BTW orange just updated to the last ICS update for the galaxy s3 in last week - they also sent to their customers sms to make an OTA update.
thanks, your english is perfect...
the issue now is that my phone is a Dutch phone - and so is the rom - i bought it in Holland...
now, can i just burn the rom onto my phone and set it to Sunny and "finito" ?
will it work ?
will it update when there are updates ?
thanks once again
---------- Post added at 10:21 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:19 AM ----------
tried to search there for a rom - found nothing...
any direct link you can send ?
"ZeevG" yes you can, just flash using odin and thats it.
to check and be sure just check that your csc is "ilo" after the flash.
my sim card is from cellcom, which one has the best rom cellcom, pelephone or orange, and does it matter if my operator is cellcom and i flash orange rom
"hykhleif" all the operators in israel uses the same baseband, just install the "clean" sunny version (ilo).
it dont metters which rom you use for operator.
I bought mine in germany. And the reason that i flashed israeli rom is hebrew keyboard and calendar localization. And I don't feel any difference between roms. Except software. When I flashed the last UK rom from sammobile, then i got Wifi disconnections. So you never know which rom for you is better.

First post updated with link to the new release and detailed information and instructions!
Thanks firefds for posting the new ROM. I am new to Android a day have not yet rooted. I have few questions:
1. After flashing with Odin and not changing carrier, will my system settings and apps be as they were?
2. Any idea why sammobile would not showing for this firmware or Orange not sending good me SMS to do ODA update? I think I am asking how this firmware cycle works between Samsung, Sunny, and the mobile carriers?
3. A firmware came out about 3 weeks ago in UK that fixes a crackling sound on the phone when listening to audio via the earphone jacket and screen is off. Does anyone know if this new ROM fixes this problem?

Hi Guys,
I unfortunately ****ed my Galaxy y pro, so i had to reflash it via odin but i flash it some strange rom. Now i would like to reflash it with the original one which is also more recent then this one, unfortunately kies is not allowing me to do so. So i need to apply some workarounds and for that i need the original details.
So guys can you please provide me with the PDA/PHONE/CSC for the Czech or at least some western european rom details?
You can acquire the details by entering *#1234# in phone, this will enter the service mode and show the
PDA
PHONE
CSC
Can you post this information?
After that can you please enter *#272*YOURIMEI#
this will write down the PC code can you please post this information also?
Hopefully i will be able to find the latest original rom via ?Check Fus with your details,
thank you very much!

Hi,
I guess there will be one generic for central Europe. I already acquired some details from one GT B5510 sold in CZ, I'm just waiting for the product code.
After that we will see what fus will offer me
but so far I'm using one netherlands rom and it runs fine - only few minor problem which i was also experiencing in the begining when i bought the phone - sd card disconnects and no network but both this issues occurred just once
So maybe at the end I will just stick with the Netherlands ROM, cos anyway it looks completly like the one which I had before with new gui for picking up the calls.
