Hi,
I have messed up my phone while playing with TowelRoot, so I flashed a new firmware. This is the recommended software for Belgium (I9505XXUGNG8) on SamMobile, this firware was for Luxembourg, and on french forums they said it was this one for Belgium, since belgium does not have a firmware.
So I flashed it via Odin, and then the phone rebooted, however, my CSC is set to ORX (Slovakia) for some reason. This is a Multi-CSC firmware.
So, I wonder what CSC is it for this firmware (Before I flashed the phone, the welcome screen was in english)
And how to get this back so I get 100% stock, by keeping KNOX 0x0.
(I can't root with TowelRoot, because it got patched)
Sorry to do this, but bump.

CSC is required for OTA (automatique mise à jour du firmware), so no need to change it because ORX area is linked to Europ.
You'll get OTA the same time (almost) than France and Lx , no worry.
in case you fear it is always possible to flash the full new Rom with ODIN.
Welcome screen is english and you move it the language you want.
About KNOX 0 if you always flash FW with Odin you'll never have to worry about it.
Clear?
Ok and I can send it back to Samsung ?
(Thanks btw ☺)

I don't say this is a problem, csc has some region related features. IF u really want those features, you can use specific region firmware as u stated about your region but i don't care about csc because it does not create a real problem. Changing CSC is bit confusing so flash complete whatever firmware you want and enjoy, also hit thanks :fingers-crossed:

Hi, I want to flash my galaxy as fedup with waiting for updates.
I got BTU, UK unbranded, unlocked S4
I am polish, so thinking flash it to polish firmware as they get it fast.
GT-I9505 XEO I9505XXUBMEA thats the one I want go for
Can someone tell what is it ? is it network firmware or unbranded?
I would go for it only if I can change CSC code to XEO, so I can get OTA updates.
If not I will keep waiting for BTU
And Dont really want XEO polish carier firmware, as I can flash to Three UK BTU network, would be the same and dont have to change CSC.
So, main questions are
What it is XEO ? what network ?
Can I flash it + change code to CSC all safe?
and how to do it ? Odin
Thank You.

as far as i tried you cant change csc with flashing . unless you flash single csc not multi.
only way is to root with auto root than change csc wit csc changer and then flash desired firmware with odin.
xeo looks like it is simfree so its just general for poland

Can someone help me out as I am new to all of this...
I am using a Samsung galaxy tab 7.0 (p2610), and I flashed a jelly bean update successfully using odin. I am not rooted.
I have a system update in the notifications window that is stuck there, that is not working (process fails), this is due to the csc code being in great britain.
I am in Canada, I have Odin ready to go, can someone please show me how to change the CSC of my device to Canada?
Where do I go to download the appropriate file? After I assume I load it up in Odin with device in recovery mode, and flash using the "CSC" option in Odin correct?
Any help would be great.
I have galaxy s4 i9505 and after region changing my csc is ALB, i can't get updates. What can i do? It is multi-csc... Region SEB, but CSC ALB.
So I will not get updates?
Hi
I had the same problem, I don't know why it happens.
I also have GT-I9505 and at first I had mismatch of PDA and CSC, my PDA was ME2 and CSC was BTU so Kies told me it doesn't support my firmware and thus I couldn't get updates. That was on android 4.2.2.
Then I installed the DBT (android 4.3) stock rom of Germany but when I entered Kies the CSC was still BTU and didn't change even after a factory reset so again I couldn't get updates, not via Kies nor OTA. Afterwards, I installed at last the BTU stock rom and everything was OK.
The Kies no longer told me that my firmware is unsupported and I received the MK8 update a week ago and gonna receive the new update which was released yesterday in a few days. Moreover, I forgot to mention that the Knox flag wasn't tripped after installing the BTU rom.
My suggestion is you install the rom which matches the CSC of your device because the CSC doesn't change after installing a stock rom so you have to adapt yourself to the CSC.

You can try flashing (via Odin) the new update which was released two days ago (MKE).
It was released for Germany and France for now but soon will be rolling to everyone.
I'm almost sure it won't trip the Knox flag if you do everything right.

Yeah that's an option also.
Also, did you try factory reset after the installation? If not, do it. It sometimes helps, in my case it didn't help to change the CSC to DBT when I installed the German rom.
I hope Kitkat will arrive soon to our devices. I can't wait to see the improvements and how did they change the TW.
I just bought a note 3 for my dad but it came with UAE csc (United arab emirates) and nd2 software build. Is there anyway to change the csc to btu or dbt safely, without rooting? It's not necessarily a must since he is not an avid technology user and probably wouldn't notice anything different anyway, it's mostly for my own peace of mind.

No Its not possible without rooting just cf auto root easiest root for note 3
sure you can. you just need to load the BTU firmware via odin. no root is needed.
and if you want to root, just you towelroot. it will not trip your knox.
You can try BTU fw via Odin, but I think CSC dont change..

Course it does.
For example. I have ORX, flashed latest SEE fw and CSC is the same ORX. But SEE have ORX inside.

Depends on your firmware.
I teach people to upgrade their 4.3 N900W8 to 4.4.2 and the procedure includes getting the CSC changed.
Few months ago I flashed Android 5.0 Poland and today I wanted to flash original version which is Android 5.0 Romania. I did flash it and CSC changed from XEO which is for Poland as far as I know to SEE (unkown) instead of csc ROM which is for Romania.
My question is how I can get rid of SEE csc and get the ROM csc which is normal for my current firmware. I did tried factory reset quite few times.
Google ?

The thing is that I don't want to have knox 0x1 after Rooting the phone. The reason I did installed Romanian Version it's because I want to go with at Warranty to fix something.

change the tar name to CSC.tar and flash in odin CSC tab.

Hey guys! So, out of curiosity, I've downloaded and flashed the most recent Oreo from Russia (CSC: SER) thinking that I would like to try out the new Oreo software. After I've tried it, I decided to go back to Nougat by flashing the stock firmware (CSC: XME) I downloaded from sammobile.com. After completing it, someway, somehow, the device is now stuck in the Vietnam CSC (XXV). I've been downloading various of XME firmwares from the past and everytime it finish flashes, it will start up in Vietnamese and I'm stuck again with the Vietnam CSC. Nice that I'm able to get oreo with a Vietnamese CSC, but I don't want to use it because the Samsung Pay works different in Vietnam in comparison to Malaysia. And, I've no idea how flashing a SER and then XME would come out with a XXV CSC is beyond my imagination. Is there anyway for me to return back to my stock CSC without rooting and tripping Knox?
Opening the stock recovery completes the CSC installation, give that a try. It's expected to show "Updating 0-100%".

So, I have done some digging around the internet and found this link from the Sammobile forum. I've tried the methods in that forum, and it works!
If any of you have suffered the same problem as me, you could perform troubleshoot using this method. It seems that firmware for XME is actually multi-CSC and includes other CSC such as Vietnam, Thailand, Singapore, Myanmar and etc.. The Vietnam CSC is the default CSC.
So, here you go. This is the link: https://www.sammobile.com/forum/threads/39155-How-to-change-CSC-with-a-combination-file
