[Q] is CSC reversible? - Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

SM-N910W8 canadian note 4,
i bought a Telus Note 4, and unlock it.
It works with rogers sim, but the phone has telus bloatware.
i was wondering if i should use *#272*IMEI# and Change the Sales Code to RWC (Rogers) ? will that do anything unreversible to the phone apart from now i'm geting rogers bloatware?
should csc matches the carriar that you are using? could i change my csc to FMC (Fido), a carrier that doesnt carry note 4.....so there may be no bloatware?

Hi there,
You can change the Customer Sale Code (CSC) by flashing a firmware with a different CSC, and after that doing a full factory reset. Also note that changing the CSC won't work if your phone is carrier locked. You can change it to whatever you like, it doesn't need to match the carrier.

[Q] Trying to change csc i9505 (carrier optus, Australia)

Hi I have a i9505 running Phoenix rom v10 I'm trying to change my csc to xsa as I'm in Australia because its not on the inbuilt csc list.
I have tried it through Odin then it reboots and opens twrp and runs the script then it reboots and I go into csc changer to change it and it's not there.
If theres not a simple way of getting this to work does anyone recommend a csc to change for AustraliaI'm also on the optus carrier
1. You can't change your device branded (Optus) for one unlocked (free). XSA don't appear in CSC list for that.
2. Solution: Unlock your phone and you are done. You can make it buying a unlocking code: HERE
Oh im not branded optus or anything im running xme csc at the moment just connection drops out a lot im trying to change to xsa

[Q] Firmware download form different country??

ive seen other threads on this topic but none really answered properly.
I live in Ireland and bought my phone unlocked from the UK , i want to get my stock firmware back but i cant find one that suits my model and version. So would i
harm my device if i used a firmware from a different country that has the correct firmware i want????
s4 i9505
If the phone is unlocked you shouldn't have any issues. Except with CSC maybe.
whats CSC exactly?
Consumer Service Code, which is what Samsung uses to customize the firmware for a particular region. With devices that are locked to their carriers this also means the apps that the carrier wishes to add to the firmware. In your case, since your S4 is not locked to a carrier you can install any stock ROM you wish from any region. For example, my unlocked I9505 was originally on O2 in the UK (CSC O2U). When I purchased it from its original owner it came to me with Slovenian firmware (SI Mobil, CSC SIM). I subsequently flashed unbranded firmware onto the device and ended up with a device that thought it was Swiss (CSC AUT). In this last instance, three Swiss-specific apps were added that are not found in the other versions of the firmware. These apps were added because the CSC reported itself to the firmware installer and said, "install these apps as well". Had I changed the CSC to BTU I likely would have gotten some UK-specific firmware.

S8 (SM-G950W) CSC flashing and going back to original

I flashed my original Canadian S8 with an CSC from the U model in order to try out how it will behave
under my provider.
Now i want to go back to my original CSC so I flash my canadian firmware but the extra CSC customizations
from the US providers are still there.
I use the Samsung mobile info to see all available CSC codes and I do see the canadian providers plus the US providers.
Is there a way to erase all CSC and to have only the one that comes from the firmware?
It seems when I flash the canadian firmware with Odin, Odin does not erase the previous CSC but just appends

S8 multi CSC Firmware question

Hello,
Can someone please try to explain this to me:
When I flash a multi CSC firmware on my S8, from the same region as my original firmware, how will the phone decide with CSC to assign from the multi-CSC list?
Example:
I have an S8 from Vodafone Romania and I want to flash the Romanian ROM firmware. But this firmware also contains other European unbranded CSC codes.
On what basis will the phone assign ROM as CSC to my phone? Based on the SIM card?
Many thanks.
No matter.
I have reflashed my branded Vodafone S8 with the open firmware for Romania. After, did a wipe cache and factory. Then the phone asked me to accept another reset to apply features from my sim card. Done that and the CSC is now the one from my country ROM. So, short answer, keep the sim card you want the CSC for in the phone to have specific settings
