I upgraded my firmware through Odin to KE7 with the XEU CSC. But when I attach the phone to Kies it tells me that the CSC is still my network in the brackets after the code which has XEU.
For example according to Kies my CSC is: KD1 (MET) but I was expecting KD1 (XEU).
I did perform a factory rest after changing the firmware and the CSC per the phone states XEU when I check it using the *#272*IMEI# code.
How do I get Kies to recognise the CSC as XEU?
Kies can only read the codes on your phone .
Once you start putting stock firmware on a phone Kies may not recognize it again as codes no longer match database .
Spoof Kies may help search or look in market .

Sorry guys, I know this is a really stupid question, and I have tried searching around, but I don't seem to understand what the importance of the CSC is?
My phone was originally from O2 on PAYG, and recently I updated it to KE7 using odin since O2's firmware wasn't out. I didn't do anything to change the CSC, but the debranding guides seem to recommend this. Does not changing my CSC to the XEU or whatever have any effect?
Currently Kies says my phone's CSC is KD1 (O2U). I tried using the *#1234# method to find out my phone info, but nothing comes up in the stock dialer when I enter it. The numbers simply disappear and nothing happens. Is this by any chance connected to the fact that I'm on generic firmware but didn't change the CSC?
CSC has an influence on the phone's product code, it's like the version of your firmware. Your product code and CSC will change when you debrand it to a generic firmware or any other firmware for that matter. So your CSC is most likely to be changed already, if it hasn't then do a system reboot by going in to recovery mode.
Does it matter that I haven't changed my CSC to match my generic firmware? Are there any compatibility issues in this situation?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA Premium App
CSC says in effect UK phone use UK settings + list of UK network providers settings .
There are no compatibility issues if it finds your network .
If it works leave it as it is .

Ok, so I'm from the Philippines and I have i9100G. Each time I connect my phone to computer and open Kies, it says
YOUR PHONE DOES NOT SUPPORT UPGRADING VIA KIES.
I searched online and here in xda they said just change your CSC (sales code) so I checked mine and it was INU
I installed stock firmware DZKL3 and Chose GLB for my sales code, still the same. Connect to kies and it says DOES NOT SUPPORT UPGRADING VIA KIES
I changed my CSC to XTC and it's still the same message. I don't want to try them all cuz everytime you try the phone will wipe itself.
I have a galaxy s3 when I received the phone I rooted and installed a custom rom straight away. I thought it was an unbranded handset but when I have installed the unbranded firmware Kies comes up with your phone does not support software updates.
Only by looking at a similar sourced phone .
Your codes are probably messed up and Kies sees no firmware to match them or their actually is none .

I thought that I bought it second hand and when I connected it to Kies I'm sure it was the LG8 update. But connecting it to Kies it now says unavailable to update.
Wait which firmware is KOR ?
Fixed it thanks changed the CSC from KOR to BTU.
Hi there, got s3 from 3 uk network, my phone kept saying this device is not up-datable though Samsung kies so i flashed lg8 firmware , i then changed the csc to BTU and everything was fine phone was seen as up-datable through kies but now when i go on to get the modem update thats out it seems kies is detecting my phone as H3G again, GRRRR.
I downloaded csc select app from the play store and it is saying that my product code is BTU but kies says H3G , any advice for me to keep it BTU ?
Cheers
I flashed a different stock firmware on my Samsung Galaxy Alpha. Previously I was on ORO but now I use DBT. To check the CSC I did the following:
dial *#1234# -> I see the correct DBT values: "AP: G850FXXU2BNK1", "CP: G850FXXU1BNK1", "CSC: G850FDBT2BNK1",
changed the values in the "efs/imei/mps_code.dat" and "system/csc/sales_code.dat" files to DBT.
booted in recovery and there I see it's applying DBT
However, Kies3 is showing a 4th value, which is still stuck on ORO. This is confirmed by the "Phone INFO" app, which shows "Product Code: SM-G850FZWEORO". DBT got just the other days an update, but Kies3 is telling me there isn't any. I've tried using a plethora of CSC changing apps but was unsuccessful.
What am I doing wrong and how can I completely change the CSC?

It seams that the solution to "completely" change the CSC after flashing a new firmware is to do a factory reset of the phone. Of course all the data gets erased, but that's what backups are for.
After the factory reset, there's no track of the old CSC. Keis sees the device correctly on the new CSC.
