I don't believe so.
You only need to download a CSC package if you need to change the CSC that's curently installed on your phone.
Oh ok but if i download a rom doesnt it change the csc?

CSC is totally independent of anything else, if you update via kies it may update your csc but unless you flash a new one via odin it won't be overwritten by custom roms.
You also don't need to update your csc its mostly just apn settings and maybe some region specific Apps eg iplayer in the uk.

Hi guys.
When flashing firmware through odin, sometimes there are 3 files to be flashed, and in certain cases only one (pda). Why is that?? I flashed 2.3.4 android using odin with only one .tar file, but now for 2.3.5 there are three files. I live in austria, and I flashed the "official" austrian version. Whats the difference between those versions? I am on austrian tmobile, and i wouldnt like to loose the network settings? Can someone clear this mystery for me, since I am really confused?
Thank you guys in advance!!

hi,
when you have one file, it means it has all been packaged into one and you flash it under the PDA section of odin,
when you have the 3 seperate files you put them into their individual sections in odin.
- Don't select Re-Partition!
hope this helps
Thank you for your reply!
It is definately helping. But, what does it mean the firmware that i flashed is for austria? They released 2.3.4 for many countries... Why does it matter? Whats the difference between this one and firmwares for other countries?

Official Austrian version is Android 2.3.4 and the XXKI3 for Poland is Android 2.3.5.
So what will happen if I flash the polish version? I am talking about firmwares in general, even the 2.3.4... Why did they separate it that way? Isnt it pretty much the same for all the countries?

dude,VERY IMPORTANT WARNING what "intratech" has given you.Do not select re-partition unless you are using a pit file.You are not so DO NOT tick this box or you will brick your phone.
Ya i figured that from all those different flashing guides... Thanks though... Do u maybe have an answer to my question about android version for different countries? Would it make any difference if I installed the polish 2.3.5 version on my austrian galaxy s2?

So, is flashing the polish version going to mess up my internet over network? Is it going to delete my network settings?

Yes if you want just flash firmware without CSC or change CSC after .
Or look in that thread for a multi csc or Frankenstein rom to fit .

thanks man I still don't understand what csc means but it's okay... I'll just wait for the official version to come out

Hi..i have a Three UK network phone which i have unlocked using method described on xda...however I'd like to debrand it by installing another ROM and unroot...will i lose the unlock in this process?
Also, if i downloaded ROM from samfirmware, how can i apply using odin as there are a few files included? I'm not very technical when it comes to various intricacies of Android ROMs!
As always thanks for your help in advance...

You can flash any firmware you like, and later a csc to match UK or just enter the APN settings manually. XX UK or XE/XW European etc, but as I said, doesn't really matter. For best data speed, connection etc you need to then flash a modem that best suits your carrier. Best to just try.
For the latest modems, some flashable via Odin and in CWM recovery:

anyone ?
Should i change CSC for USA? If yes what changing can give me ?
And should i fallow this http://goo.gl/IFcHx ?
CSC change, if I am not wrong, is not needed when you don't want to perform updates via Kies or OTA.
From my experience even with CSC unknown phone works fine.

So this is nothing with data/wifi signal strange ? Only updates even with custom rom?
CSC don't change if your network reception is ok .
CSC is a list of local network settings .
See CSC thread in sticky .
