[Q] T-mobile UK CSC Code? - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does anybody know the three-letter CSC code for T-Mobile UK? I've flashed LF2 BTU but as that wasn't the orginal ROM (the original was PDA: I9300BVALE4 - CSC: I9300TMUALE4)
I want to know how to put it back completely to stock in case it has to go back for whatever reason, stupidly I didn't check what it was before I started flashing and changing the CSC.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks

Sorry to bump, but does anyone know?

Its (TMU)

That's what I thought, but I can't seem to find that in any CSC installer which led me to believe that it was (or they used) something different.

If needed, the stock TMU rom can be found here:
PDA: I9300BVALE4
CSC: I9300TMUALE4
http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/?page=8&view=5174
Or you can download it with Chck Fus if you set:
Product Code to GT-I9300MBVTMU
PDA to I9300BVALE4
CSC to I9300TMUALE4
Phone to I9300BVLE4
I had trouble finding the stock T-Mobile firmware too and ended up downloading it through Check Fus the day before I spotted it on the SamMobile.com site.
Hope this helps
-P

Thanks for the links, I had got that firmware, what I'm struggling with is the three letter CSC code that matches that, if you get my meaning.
Thanks for replying though I appreciate it.

Not sure if it would help, but the specific CSC files for T-Mobile can be found in the cache.img inside the firmware file.
I just extracted the cache.img from the firmware file with WinRAR and then used Cache Ripper to unpack the img file
I've uploaded the zip file Cache Ripper spat out to MediaFire if anyone is interested *shrug*
http://www.mediafire.com/?p4iw15gxpw4xp5k

hmmm, the customer.xml gives the sales code as TMU, yet I've never seen that in any of the CSC install options or on the Multi-CSCs either.
unless I'm missing it somwhere.
thanks for the file though

Sorted it out I flashed the stock firmware ale4 checked the CSC with CSC checker and it was still BTU I then did a factory reset and checked again and it had changed to TMU. I now know how to put it completely back to stock if I need to
Thanks for your help

[Q] How to install CSC for my region ?

Hello
My sgs2 is an unbr./unl. O2 from the Uk now working on vodafone PT, in portugal
I have read thoroughly on the given instructions on the dev forum side and was able to flash in firmware XWKE7 - baseband XXKE4 using Odin 1.85 and also root it with superoneclick (thks again guys!), this is a small victory for me as I am a total newbie to android
Just was´nt still able to put away the yellow triangle but will try again later
Maybe I missed something somewhere else and this is newbie issues, but after reading carefully on those long (gladly!) posts I could not find out how to install a CSC file, the phone returns "unknown" and the only one available to install with the command *#272*Device IMEI# is of course O2U
So my questions are:
- what CSC file should be more appropriate for this firmware setup, for PT and/or vodafone PT ?
- How can I install it ?
thks in advance
I would just install a stock XEU(=UK) firmware, seems to be the fastest to be updated, you can find the downloads in the dev section
Hi,
I'm facing a slightly similar problem of unknown CSC & I would like to know how to install the CSC specific for my region. I have SGSII with the following info:
PDA: I9100JPKG3
Phone: I9100XXKG1
CSC: Unknown
Kernel version:
2.6.35.7-I9100JPKG3-CL388633
[email protected] #2​In fact, I found on a separate thread the CSC file "csc_xsg_i9100ojpkg1" & I would use Odin to install in on my device. Can anyone help on that please & explain to me the steps? Will I lose any data?
Thanks...

Hi ninogui,
You should go with XEU for Portugal.
Regarding the yellow triangle, I ordered a jig from amazon uk to reset the flash counter and get rid of the yellow triangle. It's unexpensive and usefull to have around.
Around €10 with shipping included to Portugal.

Thanks JJEgan,
I checked the link but I couldn't find any trace for the JPKG3 firmware! I only found JPKG2 & JPKG5. Is the JPKG3 an official firmware? Will it be OK if I flash the "csc_xsg_i9100ojpkg1" file using Oden & kept the JPKG3? Or do you recommend I update to JPKG3 entirely?
you can flash the csc only if you are happy with the firmware you have.
If you want the latest official firmware you need to upgrade to xkg5.

[Q] Few questions before firmware upgrade

Hi guys,
I just bought a Galaxy S2 and I want to flash a newer firmware.
The firmware I intend to flash (XXKG1) comes with PDA, MODEM and CSC.
Is it possible to flash just it's PDA part? Would there be any implications on that?
Why would I want that? Because the original firmware (Brazil - VIVO carrier) I could find only came with the PDA part. So if I flash CSC or MODEM, there is no way back.
The CSC is different from mine. Would that be a problem?
Thanks in advance
AFAIK the CSC is installed into the system partition, so even when you only flash the PDA part you're going to loose your current CSC setup.
However, if the FW comes as seperate .tar files you can just flash the PDA one, yes.
You can take care of a "way back" if you first install CF-Root for example and then do a backup from recovery mode.
Restoring that back gets you pretty close to "nothing ever happened" - it doesn't backup the moden though, only system and data.
Uhmm... weird, even on ODIN you have a separate button for the CSC.
What are the consequences of changing the CSC?

As the above poster mentioned It really depends how the firmware is packaged
Intratech's firmware are packed in one TAR ( Pda/phone/csc ) is just one zip, which you put in the PDA section and it flashes all three of them within
If you get three seperate files then you put them in their corressponding order of ODIN
In this instance you can choose to keep your current CSC and not flash that one.
Although I am not sure if It has any effect between 2.3.3 and 2.3.4
Just to clarify CSC subject:
I live in Kazakhstan. My present setup (from *#1234#)
PDA: I9100XEKE2
Phone: I9100XXKDJ
CSC: I9100XEKE1
believe all available official samsung firmwares are issued do exist for different region(i.e. Kazakhstan is not included)
How safe is it to flash the 2.3.4 firmware now (KG2) ?
What can I possibly loose using the KG2 firmware from Samsung ? As u understand phone language is not a problem for me.....so wonder anything else I omit ?
Thanks for help
Sorry to bump in....
Hello, I am relatively new to forums, only discovered it since I got my galaxy s2, which was a month ago.
Anyways I have similar questions, and I read a bunch of topic which only made me even more confused about what to do, and didn't want to make a new thread so I bumped in here
If inappropriate, please ignore me.
Anyways, Ive got:
PDA: I9100XWKE1
PHONE: I9100XWKE1
CSC: I9100OJVKE1
It is an stock firmware, and I guess a ROM...
I want to update to 2.3.4 but waiting seems not to be a better side of me so I decided to do it manually.
My question is with what should I update with?
As far as I understand, latest official firmwares can be found in the Intratech's post ( the XXKG2 one ).
But I am worried about the CSC part, and how will it affect my phone?
As far as I understand CSC carries localization of a sort, for some network configuration, but my provider sends config messages, and only language I use in phone is English.
Will random CSC part affect me?
Can I even update from my current firmware to the latest one? or do I need to update to other one first?
Will update wipe my data? ( it seems no as far as I understood from guide )
Will the phone be full "stock" ( basically like I bought it with that firmware), and will I be able to update on later time with KIES ?
What kinda of problems (if any) might I expect with upgrading this way? ( if presumably I do everything as I should, i.e. as per guides )
Once again, I apologize for bumping this thread, and I thank you for any help you provide.

[Q] Help! The confuzed relation between 'sale code' and firmware!

My S2 came from 'expansys online' and had the information below and no update in KIES.
PDA: XWKI4
Modem: XXKI1
CSC: OXAKI2 (SEB)
I changed the sales code to NEE by '*#272*IMEI#' and then KIES asked me to update to the following version.
PDA: XWKI8
Modem: XXKI4
CSC: OXAKI2(NEE)
Then I flashed stock firmware from Intratech's thred. But KIES said my phone cannot be updated by it. I check the information by '*#272*IMEI#' and there is just one work 'NEE' after 'sales code' and NOTHING SHOWN BELOW(before there were a list i can select). I thought I should have one 'XEN' to select at least but nothing.
The flashing should be successful because there were some apps with Dutch language.
PDA: XWKJ3
Modem: XXKI4
CSC: XENKJ1
At latst yesterday I flashed KK5 combination from Intratech's thred and succeed (with special apps like bbc i-player) but problem is still there. I cannot see any CSC to select by '*#272*IMEI#'.
KIES says the firmware 'I9100XWKK5/I9100XEUKH2/I9100XXKI3/I9100XWKK5' cannot be updated by it.
So anybody know how to solve it or who know which combination can be updated by KIES?
Anyone can give a help?
I dont really understand what you are trying to achieve .
Kies looks at Product Code and a few other codes .These are then matched against firmware on the Kies server . No match = no download .
Why vendor not updated
product Codes do not match any firmware .
Kies may not be able to match up the current codes on your phone .
You have a phone you changed its sales code
you updated then you flashed stock firmware then you flashed stock firmware again .
You want latest firmware then flash stock rom and flash relevant CSC to your location .

My question is why there is no CSC which I can select after I call '*#272*IMEI#'. There is just one word 'NEE'. No CSC list.
I flash XEU so I think at least there should be XEU CSC and the word should be changed from NEE to XEU. But the fact is not so.
And how to change product code?
You flashed the Frankenstein version of KK5 which is a combination that Intratech put together, and he placed it in the FRANKENSTEIN section, Kies will not recognize it, in order to flash with Kies, stay with stock roms/combinations.
The biggest question is why do you want to flash with Kies and with ODIN, pick one and stick with it, flash the CSC separately if you do not see it, or download CSC select from the market.

what I most warry about is why there is no XEU displayed. After calling *#272*IMEI# just 'Sales Code : NEE' is displayed (sorry no image). Anyone whose phone just has non-multi CSC can show me your infromation after calling.

Flash the CSC separately, then use the market app to select it, will reset your device though...

[Q] Flash just the CSC File

Guys,
I have the I9100XWKK5 build on my SGS2, and it runs beautifully. The only issue is that I don't have XEU in the CSC (i9100XXKJ3).
My question is, is there a way to just flash a new CSC file, so I can keep my lovely stable build, but change to XEU.
And also, can I just download any multi CSC that contains XEU file for 2.3.6, or does it have to be a build specific CSC?
Hope that makes sense, cheers in advance

Firstly wrong section ........ you'll be moved to Q&A by a mod pretty soon...... secondly yeah you can flash just the CSC specific for your region...... But beware that'll wipe your phone ........ so i'd recommend taking a backup of contacts and apps .... via KIES or My Backup Pro.
Here's the thread to download the CSC from just flash the latest CSC for your region without any qualms
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278
Mate, that is epic news Just one final question:
Does the CSC relate to the PDA or PHONE build? As I can't find the exact same combination on that page. However, I can find a XEU CSC for the PHONE build, but not the PDA build.
So, I did the CSC flash only, and it all said PASS. However, not XEU in my CSC list on phone; used CSC_XEU_I9100XEUKH2
CSC South Africa
Hi guys
Totally noob question - is it possible to flash only a csc?

[Q] Original Firmware of the Phone

How can I find out what was my original firmware when I bought the phone. I flashed MG4, the latest one for S3 but KIES claims that my current firmware version is not supported to update via KIES. I saw somewhere that you can restore it with the help of S/N but can't understand how.
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/
GT-I9300 and your country. If you had unbranded version then it's unbranded, if not select proper branded one.
There's no other way to determine what you have, especially if you overwrited bootloader with other pure-stock flashed via Odin.

you can find it via kies.. for that :
1. switch off your phone, pullup the battery and note the serial no.(no mistake should be made)
1. Open kies and than go to Tools>>Firmware Upgrade and Initialization in kies.( you don't even have to connect your phone to do this)
2. Enter the model no as: GT-I9300 (no mistake should be made, everything should be in capital letters, you can copy this one)
3. It will ask you for S/N (serial no.), enter the one you noted in first step.
Thats it, it will tell you the CSC code(country code) and other informations(i have attached screenshot of mine), the one inside bracket like in my screenshot TTT is the country code. Than you can check in Sammobile for the the firmware and find out the original firmware which was when you bought the phone.

I tried it. But it still gave me MG4 CSC, PHONE and PDA. After flashing it I got LaFleur boot logos and LaFleur wallpapers. That's strange since my phone is not White but Grey.

So did you checked for country code in sammobile, what older firmware are listed there?
My country isn't listed there somehow. As I remember when I connected my device via kies the day I bought it the csc was BTU or something that starts with B. Tho PDA was different.
Can't find my country there. Also my phone is Unbranded
Why don't you try flashing the MG4 one from kies, maybe it detects then... and can you tell your CSC code??

Check my product code is GT-I9300TADCOA , It's Tele2 from Croatia and I bought the phone from Tele2. So it think that's it.
- EDIT -
No use, still not recognized in Kies. Also the TELE2 firmware from Croatia (GT-I9300RWATWO) is a mismatch to mine GT-I93000TADCOA. And I can't find SEB firmware at Sammobile. Could you link it to me?
