Hello,
I have a S8 (G950FD) with a XEU firmware. It's active CSC is XFE . My question is :
Can I flash Android Pie with a different CSC and still receive OTA updates and will my sim card still work ?
List of my available csc codes below :
Thanks
Available CSC codes : ibb.co/xgFTVDs

Hi. I have a Galaxy Note 4 N910C that is bought from U.A.E (United Arab Emirates) it was given to me but was rooted. So I cannot update it via OTA. So decided to just flash a rom manually via odin. I'm quite new to flashing but I know how to do it. So I went to Sammobile for firmwares. Before anything else. I am in
Android 4.4.4 Kitkat
Baseband : N910CXXU1ANL2
Build : KTU84P.N910CXXU1ANK5
In my box there's : N910CZWEXSG
So in my box, the last three is XSG which is the country code for UAE so I went to filter the roms via country code and I am confuse in the available roms for download.
There is a PDA which is N910CXXU1ANK5. So I assume that is the correct rom? But there's this CSC? What is it? And in my baseband N910CXXU1ANL2 what does it mean?
For the available download with PDA N910CXXU1ANK5, it's CSC is N910COJV1ANK5 . Is that the correct rom for me?
Hello fellas,
I have just bought a brand new S8 dual sim, or SM-G950FD, made in Vietnam.
After inserting the 4g chip, the device rebooted and downloaded the config for my mobile operator, which appears to be the config for the F variant and not the FD (see attachments below).
It works fine, but the region ARO (Argentina unbranded) does not have a firmware for this model, and the security patch is from August 2017. So the question is, can I flash the stock version for the FD, region XXV (Vietnam unbranded)? Or is it better if I try ZTO (Brazil unbranded)?
Moderator from Sammobile said firmware from any region for this model should work, as long as the PDA and CSC contain FXX and OMX on their codes respectively.
Could you please help me out a little?
Thanks!
2nd attempt to add screenshots.
There is no need to flash anything if your phone is running ok. I have the duo in the UAE and it also shows only "F" not "FD".
I was getting security updates almost every month but not since August.
Dear XDA,
to get my fingerprint sensor working with Lineage-OS 7.1.2 on my S5 Duos, I want to update the baseband firmware.
Because I couldn't find any clear information of the region of my phone (*#1234# didn't work with lineage-os), and there is no firmware for my country/region, I thought I go the super-easy way to update via Kies3.
Done so, but unfortunately the baseband isn't updated, and there are no FOTA/Kies3 updates available. AP has been updated to the latest version (G900FDXXS1CQD2), but not the baseband ...
When I check AP,CP,CSC on now-stock rom with *#1234#, it says:
AP: G900FDXXS1CQD2
CP: G900FDXXU1CQA4 (as before Kies3-update)
CSC: g900FDOJV1CQB1
On sammobile.com and samsung-updates.com I find G900FDXXs1CQD2 firmwares, but nowhere they say whether it's AP, CSC or CP (the thing I need updated).
I think I don't mind the region as long as English and French is included and I can use LTE in (Western) Europe.
Two questions:
1)
a) when it says "Version" on (can't post urls) samsung-updates: is this the CP/Baseband?
b) similar on sammobile.com: There is PDA and CSC, both differing. But I need baseband/cp.
2) I understand that there are no carrier-specific firmwares (S5 duos apparently not sold by carriers?). So if version/pda is also baseband, which firmware do I download? There are 8 different firmwares with G900FDXXS1CQD2?
kind regards
1. Most likely it's AP, but CP should be the same as AP inside. Sorry, it looks like CQA4 is the latest CP for this S5 variant.
2. Most likely any if you're planning to flash modem only.
CPs will be the same.
Carrier firmwares within one S5 VARIANT and firmware VERSION differ by CSC and hidden partition size.
Hello
when I flash the last mutli CSC 8.0 official BTU ROM , My phone is every time in BTU CSC.
How could I force It to be in XEF ?
I tried :
with or without SIM card
get back to an old 7.0 single CSC (XEF) and flash again 8.0 --> still have BTU...
What can I do more ?
Hi guys.
I recently noticed that my Galaxy A20s (SM-A207F/DS) didn't get Android 10 and 11 updates for no reason. No updates available for my device in settings / software update.
So I decided to flash the leatest update manually.
The current region code (CSC) is THR (Iran) with Pie version.
I looked up sammobile.com for Android 11 firmware but it doesn't have THR region.
The question is:
What happens if I flash different CSC?
Which region code should I use?
