Hi,
I'm travelling to Indonesia this summer and want to use an Indonesian SIM whilst I am out there. Using GalaxSim, I can tell that my phone is network unlocked, however it says that CSC Lock is 'locked'. I live in the UK and know the CSC on my phone is BTU, as I has previously flashed with a BTU firmware.
So two questions,
a) What does CSC Lock 'locked' actually mean?
b) Will I be able to put an Indonesian SIM in with no issues?
Thanks.

Hi
I'm not sure if this has already been answered on here so please forgive me for asking again if it has,
I bought a samsung galaxy S3 in the UK, and I am going to South Africa next week and wanted to give the phone to my sister, was wondering how to change the csc from UK to the South African network.
I will explain, when I bought the phone, it is a 3 network mobile, I put my vodafone sim card in and it said "sim unlock pin"
I rooted the phone, bought the voodoo unlocking software and it seemed to do the trick, so now when i put my vodafone sim card in, it doesnt ask for a sim unlock pin anymore, and if i go and look in my available networks i see a whole load of networks for example the list looks like this
Vodafone UK(3G)
current network
vodafone UK(2G)
Available Network
T-Mobile Uk(3G)
Forbidden Network
and so on,the list goes on, i only have Orange that also says available network, the rest say forbidden network.
When I type *#726#and my imei number, press the dial button, it doesn't do anything but comes back and says "not registered on network"
Can anyone please help me??
Thanks in advance

you can't change csc in a single csc rom! it works only in multi csc roms!
i think you have to change rom to have network working properly...
You need to flash a rom from south africa (just look up sammobile.com for the fitting file) in order to choose an south african CSC the way it is mentioned above.
By the way:
You said, you used voodoo sim unlock? After flashing one of the incmoing Jelly Bean Roms the Simlock might be active again!
Voodoo doesn't work on JB Roms.
You might want to simunlock you're phone using this method again: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1846451
Good luck
My friend is giving me his gear s he got with his note 5 free as he does not use it but it was bought in the united arab emirates does the gear s have a sim region lock on it? Ie does he need to make a couple calls on the watch to disable the region lock like you do with a samsung phone?
He isnt very techy and may forget to do it before he comes to visit if i were to flash the uk stock rom for the gear s will that change the region lock to a uk 1 ie can i use a uk sim to disable the region lock? I dont wanna get it and find i cant use it.
Can anyone answer my question?
Hello everyone. I'm struggling to find a starting point on how to change the csc of my phone. I haven't changed a csc before and there are lots of conflicting info on the forum. I'm familiar with Odin and flashing ROMs in general.
I bought my phone from the US, and it has the AT&T G65USQU1ARBI (unlocked) software, however, I live outside the US and I want to change the CSC. I want Samsung Pay to show me offers from my region.
Where to start?
Should I flash a different ROM straight away? and would that change my CSC? Obviously, I don't want any of the AT&T features, so I don't mind changing the ROM.
Is there a ROM that I can flash that supports multi-CSC options? The Samsung variant in my region is Exynos, so can I still change the CSC to my region with my Snapdragon S9+ ?
Thanks guys.
EDIT: Just learned about the snapdragon root dilemma. So I guess the root option will be dismissed.
I bought a s9 + G965F with csc Singapore but I use in Brazil 4G network is ok but I can not use voLTE and Wi-Fi calling can someone help me? version of the OXM operator.
Hi all, i live in Ireland and I have a S9+ SM G965F . I'm on the Vodafone network that has a csc VDI. The phone was bought from the UK and was a branded vodafone UK VOD . When I put my VDI sim in it automatically changed to VDI/VDI/VOD.
I JUST ordered a S9+ DUOS off eglobal and the phone is coming from Hong Kong, it's new unlocked and sim free and model is SM G965FD. At this point I will have no idea what csc will be on it. Will i have problems changing it to VDI? Or am I screwed as i need wifi calling.

There are quite a few posts in this forum involving changing CSC but there's not many who have successfully done it. Your best option may be a Combination ROM. Good luck!
Hello, I bought my S21 device from Singapore but I live in Egypt, I tried changing my CSC or service provider to EGY in order to unlock call recording through flashing Egyptian firmware with no luck even though I have an Egyptian SIM card inside.
Any suggestions? I tried the code *#272*IMEI NUMBER# and I got options to change the CSC but next to EGY there was the word "single". Does that mean that if I choose it I will lose the DUAL SIM functionality?
Thank you.
EDIT: changing CSC on my SM-G991B/DS worked flawlessly with the code mentioned above.

Hi
Yes , I did it too and is working great , dual sim included , I think the option "single" is not relates to the dual sim option but to change the sales code , last one of the csc codes, xxx/xxx-xxx/ country code
