Help unbranding the phone - Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers

Hello, unfortunately it's not possible anymore to unbrand the phone using Odin since it doesn't apply the desired CSC (in my case ITV).
The only way to do it now it's using Smart Switch but it requires the serial number to download the right ROM, so my question is: anyone with an ITV (or italian no brand) phone give me his serial, not the IMEI, just so i can download the right firmware and unbrand my phone?

[Q] flash galaxy s i9000m, bell canada

hi, i had the kies froyo firmware, i was experiencing lots of problems with force close, and my messanger was not working at all for sms, so i flashed using this website step by step ://androidadvices .com/update-samsung-galaxy-s-i9000-to-gingerbread-android-2-3-2
so i installed the gingerbread, it was working for 2 days ok, but then it started to freeze, and the biggest problem is that now it wont connect me to my BELL CANADA network, my sim is ok, i go to setting, networks and when i click on the bell, it tries to load for 2 min, then it says unable to register to network.....i assume is because the firmware i put maybe from europe....well i cant find an official canada network....my firmware now is:
pda I9000xwjv1
phone 19000xxjve
csc i9000xxjv1
i used odin 1.3v to flash it...samsung kies says my firmware cannot be updated.....
i want to flash it back to froyo using odin and that works in canada. im a noob please explain like im an idiot please and post me the pda file, the pin file, the phone and csc file if i need it.
and explain what i should check on odin (autoreboot,repartition, etc) and do i need to put new csc and phone file?
please help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Q][N9005] I want to... brand my phone - CSC change

I have bought unlocked N9005 from Germany. The problem is I need to flash very specific ROM related to my home network - T-Mobile PL.
I managed to debrand and upgrade my phone to N9005XXUENA6_N9005OXXENA5_N9005XXUENA2. Works fine.
But now I need to change CSC to TPL and flash N9005XXUENA7_N9005TPLENA2_N9005XXUENA2 - but direct flashing with ODIN ends with usual invalid ext4 image.
What shall I do to flash banded firmware?
PS: *#272*(my_IMEI)# does nothing. IMEI of course checked with *#06#

I9505 - Firmware region from S/N or IMEI

Is there any possible way of finding out the phone's original firmware region from the S/N or IMEI ? I have lost the box so there is no way for me to know it . Also kies keeps telling me i9505 does not support initialising even when phone is not connected and i enter the S/N. Probably its carrier branded and the update never comes through kies. I have a vague ideea it might be CNX (vodafone romania) but not sure. HALP !
Check here, but it may not function properly. Last time I tried it I got an error.

Flash with odin the firmware that your phone came with.
The stock Samsung firmware can be found here: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-N9005/
March the last 4 characters of the csc and pda to the firmware. Download it, unzip it to get a tar.md5 file, flash the tar.md5 file in the PDA/AP box of Odin. I prefer Odin 3.07 for flashing back to stock.
Tried all those but no luck...
I coudnt register with the network after searching and selecting the network...
It says unable to connect try later... veryfew times it registered with very few sim cards yet no dialling tone etc.. finally comes again to the registration problem state.... any helps?
Wrong IMEI and wrong serial is that correct .
Have you restored your original backed up EFS folder ??

Changing CSC from KDO to BWC

So i bought a 2nd hand s7 edge off kijiji. No issues with it, but i've been reading that wifi calling is an option with my provider (Bell Canada, hence the BWC csc) and I'm wondering what benefits there are (if any) by changing the CSC in my phone, or if making this change would then enable the option.
I can enter the *#272*IMEI# and get the option to change it, i just want to make sure i'm not gonna mess anything up by doing this.
Any insight would be helpful. Even if there aren't any benefits for doing this change, i'm still curious as to what kinds of things this change can do, whether they be good or bad.
Thanks in advance!
Bump for visibility
I believe all the firmware from any carrier is fine, as long as its from a Canadian Provider.. I bought my Edge from Samsung store... Went onto the Sammobile and flashed a general canadian firmware with the sept update, no issues...
Only way to change the CSC is to root your phone first and then install SAMSUNG INFO software from Google play Use the Csc Changer option and then select your preferred CSC from the list and install then your phone will restart and will restore Factory setting *before doing that make backup your phone* and then your phone will restart with new CSC ......You are done ....
NOTE: this process is only be possible with multi CSC phone or international models
