[Q] Does Pda Modem Phone and CSC change?

Does Pda Modem Phone and CSC change when you flash custom roms?

Pda consist of system and boot so it changes
No idea about modem, phone
Csc changes depends on developer
For example creeds 3.5 has indian csc and others have multiple csc
I might be wrong

Modem dosen't change. I can't think of any way to change it.
Csc can be changed. Boot can be changed too. And pda of course changes if the rom comes with a custom kernel.

I was on 3 uk firmware
I flashed btu which is uk unlock firmware using Odin
The csc then mis matched as firmware btu but csc three uk
Did a complete reset to put phone back to factory
Switched off handset
Then entered recovery which power home and volume up
Then did a reboot from the recovery menu
Btu csc then wrote to the phone
Now have unbranded btu handset which allows official updates via ota or kies
Only issue now is three uk had released ME2 before unbranded BTU ! But not going back as u have unlocked my handset also so have completely unbranded unlocked handset

[Q] Is the CSC related to network lock?

Hi guys,
I have a Galaxy S4 LTE, which I suppose is unlocked, as if I enter the service mode,at the network lock it says sha256_enable_flag 0. So, according to kies, I need the TMH based firmware, which is on T-Mobile. But I am on Vodafone, so I would need the VDH or XEH (Hungary). If I flash back the TMH csc based firmware, will I lose my unlock? Or if I flash back the vodafone based, will I still get ota updates?
Thanks for anyone who is willing to help!

Can't be totally sure. But I did re flash a different CSC and my phone got blocked. Had to go back to original CSC

yeah, but you can change to the new csc if you do a factory reset in the recovery. So, according to you, if i flash back the original csc, I will keep my unlock? By the way, it was a hungarian based csc and now i have a german based.

Yes, I have CSC from TTT and I flashed one from Uruguay that even came branded. Do it with Odin, no need for factory reset. The data does not gets deleted. Just backup in case

Mine says it does not matter. But go ahead and try your method. It should work as well

well, hope i'll keep my unlock...

CSC is only for customization. There is no unlock or lock key inside.

thank you!
and what about the new knox feature?

Knox has nothing to do with network lock.

Thanks all!

Hi guys. Currently I am using custom rom based on ne4 Singapore firmware but the csc is btu which is UK version. My issue is that I can't setup the roaming under the more network. My question is, by changing to Asian csc, will I be able to view the roaming setting option? Kindly refer to the attached pic. Thanks if anyone can answer me.

[Q] Difference in CSC?

I want to flash a new stock rom on my N900, I found a rom on sammobile for my device but with different CSC, mine is OJVBMI1, while the one I found is OJVBMI3, what is the difference between the two? And if I flashed the new one , can I reflash the old one after that?
Sent from my SM-N900 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

The MI3 is newer than the MI1. Your Rom version and your csc version have to match! And yes you can flash the older one over the newer one through the download mode , but I don't know whether the system works after that without wiping.

Thanks bro, but what do you mean by matching rom version and csc version?
Sent from my SM-N900 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

I am, to example using Firmware(AP): N9005XXUBMJ3
Thus my CSC has to be a MJ3 as well for everything to work correctly. You can also check your AP and CSC by opening the stock dialer and entering *#1234# .If supersu opens simply press Back and you should see your version.
The best for you is to simply take the CSC sammobile suggests after entering your device and Product code you wish to have.

Tried many times. Nothing happens. CSC Changer from play store doesn't work as well - it just freezes on "change CSC" button.

This csc changer actually worked on mine but then again I have a N900W8.

This should work.

Many thanks! I have seen this way somewhere in S4 forums, but didn't think it could be used for our Note 3. I will try when I'll be ready for full wipe and post the results here.

So, after flashing stock roms and rooting and I have finally managed to change CSC to BTU using "CSC Select".
But stock NA6 still tells "The latest updates have already been installed". Kies also says that this is the latest firmware.
Any ideas how to officially get update to NB7? According to http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=SM-N9005 NB7 is already rolled out for BTU region.
Thanks!
