Hello,
My phone(Samsung Galaxy GT-B5510 (Galaxy Y Pro/Galaxy TXT)) was totally bricked, I couldn't turn wifi on, nothing worked.
After I searched some forums I found how to un-brick it by loading the original firmware.
I live in Belgium, and I couldn't find a firmware with the Belgian CSC("PRO"), so I used a Netherlandish-one.
Everything went fine and I can use my phone again, everything works, except that the AZERTY-keyboard functions as a QWERTY-one(the default for Netherlands).
This isn't that big of a problem, I thought oh well..
Anyways, my phone works fine without a SIM-card. Whenever I try to boot my phone with a SIM inserted, it gets stuck in a bootloop, showing the Samsung-image for about 15 seconds and then rebooting and so on.
So after I thought a bit, I figured out the problem must be that I'm not using a Belgian CSC (my SIM is from Belgium too).
I tried restoring my phone with Samsung Kies, but whenever I click Start upgrade, I get a Chinese error.
However, I have found the location where Kies downloaded the firmware, and the firmware is with a PRO-csc(the one I need), it's located in
C:\Users\{me}\AppData\Temp\Binary\GT-B5510.
So I tried flashing this Kies-firmware with ODIN, but the problem is that the Kies-firmware has no extension(no .tar.md5 or whatever), so I can't import it with ODIN.
What do I do?

Hello people.
So heres the deal,
I got an Samsung Galaxy s2 (handheld,not blacklisted) from Ireland,from a friend.I dont know which carrier he used there,but the phone worked.
Now it is become weird,I want to use an Latvian sim card,out it in,but it can not connect to service provider,checked wit galaxsim app,no locks are present at all.Then I tried rom flashing,did some stock 4.0.3,4.1.2 and nothing,tried cyanogenmod,nothing,returned to stock 4.1.2.
Rooted the phone,busybox present,checked with several apps again,no locks,but neither does it connect to any Latvian networks.
I got an Estonian sim card,so for an experiment,I inserted it,and guess what,it connected to the network and i could make a call,send sms etc.
So im confused what is with this crappy S2,that he doesnt like latvian networks,but accepts simcards anyway.
Any Ideas to fix it so it does connect to all networks?
Thx in advance.
Have you tried installing a new modem? You can also try hawkerpauls nuke, maybe it has something to do with your friends modifications. Also, search any problems related to Latvian networks, maybe it's a known problem.

I wanted to update firmware as many others, but I got error message in ODIN and now I don't know what to do. I was trying to flash UPADTE package in CSC and PDA and everytime I got this error. After that I tried to flash firmware with AP,BL and CSC, but result was same. Also Kies can't recover my firmware. :crying:
Finally I managed to restore the firmware. I turned off the Gear for a few minutes, downloaded a firmware again and tried re-flash firmware. Successfully.
Same as any phone on the market. :good:
I need to change firmware too
what have you used at the end? odin or whatelse? which version?

let me explain: My issue is that I just bought gear fit in Japan, but has no sleep app inside. so I would like to turn it in Iralian (i am italian) or even in any othercountry firmware but to have the full app set.

On first start you have to connect your Gear Fit with Samsung device, because Gear Fit will probably need to download new update. After that you can connect with others devices.
After this problem which is in OP I flash ND8 firmware (link which I sent you) and everything is working. Also Gear Fit has everthing set according to my S4 (language and CSC).

already paired and linked with my note 3: it has latest update... but kie says to me I have the following Firmware: PDA ND8 / CSC ND8 (XJP) ... and I was told that italian one is PDA ND8 / CSC ND8 (ITV) so I can imagine that xjp is for japan and lacks sleep stuff... what if you go to kies...what is in () in your version ?? but the most important: DO YOU HAVE THE SLEEP app other than eart rate, pedometer and exercise???

My CSC is XEZ which is Czech Republic, but I live in Slovak republic. We are neighbours so I don't care. :laugh: But I have all features. You can maybe try to flash firmware from URL which I gave to you.
I will definitely try flashing my gear fit with your firmware. I just need all the features. No more.
Dou you think than after that you can update the gear fot using Kies again or no?
Thanks by the way. I will let you know when I come back to Italy.

Turn off your Gear for 15-20 minutes. After that download ND8 firmware and put these files into ODIN 3.09.5. And try to flash again. I had the same problem and I tried to flash FW in to Gear many times but nothing. So I just turned off my device and tried it later. And it worked.

You can flash stock firmware for your model only but normally any region is okay. You could always just install the messaging app?
Have you tried firmware update with smart switch?

I will update you tomorrow on it as I didn't get to download the file as yet
still no news for sm-925z ?!
Well I saw the update in France [XEF] yesterday and wanted it right then! So I searched all the forums and finally found a good way and now my unlocked Galaxy Note 8[NON Rooted] is running Oreo with INS CSC.
Made this guide so that people can find this method easily.
Keep in mind that flashing your device is always risky and I DO NOT take any responsibility if you mess up the procedure and damage your device.
Method:
>
Download the latest BRB2 Firmware from here https://updato.com/firmware-archive-select-model?record=67BFD0E620FF11E89F15FA163EE8F90B OR https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-note8/SM-N950F/XEF/
Flash it using Odin[3.12.3] [ MAKE SURE THAT ONLY AUTO REBOOT & F.RESET TIME options are checked in the 'Options' tab of ODIN]
After flashing is complete reboot into system and run through the setup, after that remove your SIM & SDCARD and open the phone app. Dial *#272*YOUR IMEI NUMBER# to open the list of CSCs. [to get your IMEI dial *#06#]
Select the XEF CSC, it will ask to reboot and reset the device, let it do the same.
After the device reboots then check for software updates manually and you'll get OREO.
After installing oreo put your sim and sdcard back in, it will tell you to reset the device, DO IT as its necessary to restore your original CSC.
That's it
Now you have OREO, Non rooted and stock oreo.
