[Q] Flashing to XEO (Poland) firmvare + changing CSC with Odin?

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

i didnt find any searching on net so i guess no. they usualy pack 20+- csc together
there was some talk of chcnging csc with flashing twice with odin without auto reboot. but that didnt work for me.

try it. remember if you want to change csc with single flash(wich i dont think so ,that worked on s2) after first boot reboot to recovery and wipe data/chache. in recovery you will see wich csc applied.

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.

changing csc without rooting

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.

CSC Problem

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 ?

you must root and change csc using this app

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.

extract cache.img and hidden.img from your Romania firmware make tar from them using this program(https://www.dropbox.com/s/egp2c88amceg8mn/IZArc.4.1.9.rar?dl=0)
change the tar name to CSC.tar and flash in odin CSC tab.
do it with your on risk

From XEO to SEB CSC?

Hey you guys. Maybe someone know how to go back to SEB region. Because always when I flash is XEO tried many times

Did you trie flasing SEB firmware from Sammobile? It should change you csc to SEB. If not try searching only the csc file. If you are rooted you can change it with an app or try a custom rom with multi csc

I tried to flash SEB firmware 100 times maybe same result XEO. Where to find original SEB CSC? I am not rooted. Dont want loose waranty.

SEB (Baltic) and XEO (Poland) are part of a multi-CSC package (G935FOXX1BPH1). When installed, multi-CSC packages always default to a specific CSC out of all included CSCs (in this case XEO) and there is NO way to change that without root access. So you have three options, either trip KNOX and root so you can use SEB, or stay with XEO, or flash a firmware with a CSC that is not part of a multi-CSC package.
CSC codes list.

Thanks for answers. Well i think i will stay with XEO. I was in two services and they dont manage to restore SEB region. And what kind of lame for me, because it was Samsung service center and hall of them dont know what is CSC

Problem Multi CSC

Hello,
i have a belgian S7 edge and flashed a while ago the british nougat beta firmware.
yesterday i wanted to go back to my countries own firmware but was still marshmallow on sammobile.
so i installed this version using odin.
but when i did a recovery and wiped everything it installed german apps and the language was in german.
i tought that my CSC wasnt correct so i only flashed the CSC from the marshmallow rom for my country but the problem remains.
now i have multi CSC but i only want one and that is CSC PRO (Belgium Proximus)
how can i fix this? i tried the code with *#27*imei# but nothing works?
because of this problem i cannot use VOLTE on my own operator.

You need to flash a totally different CSC that is not multi csc with re partiton enabled in Odin... then flash the csc you want to be on again with re partition enabled in Odin.

And which csc shpuld i choose for example?

Try flashing a KSA CSC firmware (Saudi Arabia) and then flash the CSC firmware you want

I also have the same problem. Last month I flashed a BTU firmware because I haven't got the Nougat update yet here in the Philippines and I really wanted to try out the Nougat update as soon as it started rolling out in UK. This month the Nougat update finally rolled out here in the Philippines so I decided to go back to Philippine firmware which is XTC. After flashing I got the Thailand CSC (THL) even though I flashed the Philippine firmware (XTC). My s7e is not rooted and I have no plans on rooting it. Can someone help me go back to Philippine CSC? Thanks in advance.

And this will surely work because on sammobile forum they say it isnt possible to change it back

The CSC you are trying to flash maybe part of the same firmware so you have to change to another csc entirely. Try KSA CSC firmware and flash the PRO CSC firmware
I am in the UK and my phone orgibally had XEU CSC and I wanted to flash the BTU CSC to get Nougat however because BTU and XEU were in the same firmware this meant when I flashed the BTU CSC I still had the XEU CSC.
So I flashed KSA CSC and flashed BTU CSC and now I have BTU

Piravinth said:
The KSA CSC wouldn't be part of the multi-csc you have so if you flash that and flash the firmware that has the CSC you want you should get that CSC

Are you using the latest version, v 3.12.3?
Under options in odin the following should be ticked;
Auto Reboot
Re-Partion
F.Reset Time

What is going on?
When flashing the KSA CSC firmware, did you add the BL,AP,CP AND CSC files and did you choose the csc file and not the home csc?
Did you follow the same step when flashing PRO CSC firmware?
