Can I flash ROM with different CSC?

Hi. I am kinda new to S4. I bought my phone in baltic region but my phone has CSC EVR (its UK). As they are delaying updates a lot what will happen if I will download firmware for SEB region from Sammobile and flash it via Odin? Is there any danger to brick the phone? Will CSC then will change to SEB?
Thanks in advance.

GT-I9500

I have a GS4 GT-19500 unlocked using it T-Mobile in NYC area.
I am running stock rooted firmware
3.4.5. Adam 1.3.2. Kernel
build JDQ39.I9500XXUAMDK
Baseband I9500XXUAMDK
SELinux Status - permissive
can someone tell me what is the latest firmware available and how i can figure our what country firmware is best to use.
any help would be greatly appreciated.
thanks in advance.

Have the same gt i9500 as u and i m currently using t mobile in nyc too ... i flashed inu region firmware because it seem indian firmware has the most frequent updates ... i suggest u do the same ... also wipe phone after update to change the csc to the indian so u could get ota or use kies for further updates

This is probably due to the INS and INU firmwares. If your firmware is INU then you will get updates of INU only. Another alternative is that register yourself on sammobile and download the lollipop firmware and flash it through Odin.
All the best!

Hi
If your phone has been set to "custom" you will not get it...you need to be 100% stock in order to receive the official OTA release...
Option 2 would be to go to Sammobile get it and flash it with Odin

You better wait or manually flash official rom through odin.

[Q] Wich firware is the good one ?

Hi,
For a couple of days my Galaxy S5 XEF SM-G900F tells me there's and update for the firmware. As my phone was rooted no FOTA were possible so I uninstalled the root. Still no way tu update from OTA.
I tried Kies, but it always stop at 19% (tried on 2 different computers). So ok, back to the only one method that always works : ODIN BUT
Kies tells me that the available version is DA: OC7/CSC: OC2/PHONE: OC7
On sammobile, the only one firmware that has a csc: OC2 is the one for a specific carrier (Bouygues) . Which one should I download and flash to be up to date please ?
Thanks in advance for your help

Grab a stock ROM for your country and model S5 (G900F) from sammobile dot com - instructions under the download on their site

Flash any region you like, not sure how the networks will work though
Possible they'll work fine, trial and error
