[Q] Change csc? Skygo region locked? - Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all,
looking for some help.
I have a Note 3 from Germany and have run into a problem trying to load Skygo onto it. For some reason it keeps saying device not supported.
After doing some research i came to the conclusion that my phone must have a German firmware/CSC and have since Flashed (?) to a uk ROM.
I believe this was successful but Skygo still doesn't work?
Here are the details from *#1234#
AP: N9005XXUENB7
CP: N9005XXUENB1
CSC: N9005OXAENB1
Here's some additional info from "Phone info":
Country of origin: Made in Vietnam
Knox 0x0
Original CSC Code: BTU
Firmwares CSC Code: BTU
Active CSC Code: BTU
CSC Country: UK & IRE
Android version 4.4.2 KOT49H N9005XXUENB7
I'm really not that Tech savvy and i'm unsure if my ROOT was successful and if my CSC has changed?
Can anyone help?
Thanks,
Rees

Grey Import Region Change

Hi
My friend just purchased a Note 3 from an Amazon reseller, and it turns out to be a grey import. He asked me to take a look to see if the phone was legit as it had Chinese language by default. I quickly discovered that although the box says 'Made in France', the device has arrive with Hong Kong firmware on it (TGY) as follows...
Baseband version: N9005XXUBMI5
Build number: JSS15J.N9005ZHUBMI7
AP: N9005ZHUBMI7
CP: N9005XXUBMI5
CSC: N9005ZZHBMI7
Current firmware version: PDA:MI7 PHONE:MI5 CSC:MI7 (TGY)
Latest firmware version: PDA:MK1 PHONE:MJ94 CSC:MK1 (TGY)
Has anyone successfully manage to flash the firmware/baseband and changed the CSC to UK unbranded (BTU) without bricking the phone. I have suggested he returns it as he'll trip the KNOX flag doing this, and Samsung don't entertain the warranty if its from another region.
Can it be done?
**Update: I sold my S4 for a Z1 due to the impending KNOX/Activation lockout stuff Samsung were introducing

Your multi-CSC code is VFG, and your current CSC is VOD (Vodafone UK).
Install Phone INFO ★Samsung★ app, go to 'CSC Lookup' menu and enter 'VFG' to search, you will see a list of available CSC in this firmware: PRO, MTL, CYV, VDC, VD2, VGR, VDH, VOD, etc... There is no BTU in this firmware, so you can't change the CSC without flashing another firmware.
However you can download BTU firmware from sammobile.com and flash it via Odin.

[Q] SM-N9005 flash latest XTC or BTU NF4 over XFV (South Africa Vodafone) via MOP

Hello to all,
Current Info: haven't flashed any other rom, only update via OTA then rooted via towelroot thanks to @geohot, knox 0x0 (installed knox v1.0.0xxuenc2):
Country: South Africa (Vodafone) - region unlock: I'm currently using here in Philippines with a local simcard without issues
Model: SM-N9005 (32gb)
Model name: GALAXY Note 3 LTE
Product Code: XFV (original)*
PDA: N9005XXUENC2 (so far this is the latest for xfv)
CSC: N9005VFGENA4 (multi csc - same with UK vod)
MODEM: N9005XXUENC2
As from the title these are the following questions:
1. Can I also use "N9005XXUFNF4_hlte_Stock_Odex_Not_Rooted_NoKnox.zip" by @mdiaz33685 to upgrade to btu NF4 over xfv NC2? taken from @sweeney_uk post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=53952241&postcount=1
2. How about using official btu NF4 from sammobile.com then flash via MOP?
(It's clear to me that flashing later/latest version will not trip knox but i'm hesitant because I haven't found in the forum that flash over from exact product code of mine xfv to a different csc)
3. What are the issues using BTU NF4 in Asia?
4. What if I use official xtc NF4 firmware from sammobile.com then load in open file section via MOP, will this work without tripping knox?
I want to keep root access and knox 0x0 and unbrand my phone (i prefer to have xtc so I can receive OTA here) . As much as possible I don't want to use PC odin because some user soft bricked their phone and I think i can't revive mine via kies since it doesn't support initialization of different region csc.
Sorry for this redundant questions as I already post this to other threads. I decide to make this thread hoping to get more advice because I want to be 100% sure. Thanks in advance

And also using KIes did the same thing.
How is it possible? both product codes are different, pleae guide me about it.
It got right firmware. Its just sammobile website issue, websites does not show firmware for XSI region, which is the same as XFM region.
