Hi, I just got Galaxy S9+ and it is bloated with LG Uplus menu and apps. Model version is SM-G965N and when i look for firmware in Sammobile only few firmwares are shown. (KOO, LUC, SKC, KTC)
Can I download KOO firmware and flash with Odin to get rid of carrier bloats and return to stock?
I heard that S9 and S9+ have some problems changing CSC. But if i flash like this, would it be considered changing CSC. Would it work to flash with odin like this?
Is there anyone who knows answer to this?
I also want to do the same thing on my s9 plus. can anyone help please ... thanks

just so i have this straight, youre using a Samsung S9+ on a LG cellular service? thats awesome!! the 965N has the Exynos processor, to the best of my recollection, and you can verify this by installing CPU-Z. If it is, you should be able to flash the G965F firmware on it. I have a S9 that i got from Cricket and installed the G960U firmware on it, debranding it and im satisfied with the result. You will likely need the patched version of Odin in order to flash any firmware on it to debrand it. Verify the processor via CPU-Z and we can go from there

G965N with LGU + firmware too And I want to unbrand it too.
i did it already, and went back to stock.
the service guy installed twrp, then installed custom rom- based on 965F/DS- everything was fine. except no 5.8ghz wifi connection, no OTA update menu.

Hello everyone,
I recently got an upgrade though T-Mobile (in UK) for a Samsung Galaxy S2. Its simply awesome, but I'm a newbie to the Android OS. Hence I have very less knowledge as to what is happening with the android OS rooting, updating etc.
So on to the main topic, I got my phone (model GT-I9100) on 2.3.5 and the base band is I9100BOKJ1.
I would like to remove the T-Mobile branding and the other software which there installed have it.
So could someone please guide me though how I could root and update my firmware to Standard samsung with out the carriers crap installed and still use the phone with my carrier?
My phone is unlocked by default as another sim card works from another carrier.
Could someone walk me through step by step as to how i could root and update my firmware to standard and unlock the device Any help is much appreciated.
I have attached a screen shots of my x#1234#
Thanks.

Sometime today i get a new s9+ it will come with the vodafone uk bloatware on, if i was to flash the btu firmware would that count as unofficial firmware and trip knox?
No, so long as you don't root your phone, you should be fine.
Thats good to know
I dont suppose anyone has yet made an app that allows you to remove system apps without root?
Package disabler pro. You'll have to search for it.
Hi Melliwuk - did you end up flashing your phone to BTU? What was your experience? I have S9+ (SM-G965F) and am on an O2/O2/O2 CSC and want to switch to BTU, but like you don't want to trip Knox! TIA

Flashing official Samsung firmware with Odin will never trip KNOX, only flashing custom software like roms, kernels and recovery will trip KNOX.

As @gee2012 said above, flashing official firmware won't trip Knox.
You just flash the firmware files in Odin. It's quite straight forward. Follow this guide: https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...ficial-stock-firmware-thread-samsung-t3764479
You can download the latest BTU firmware here: https://updato.com/firmware-archive-select-model?record=C397FC9F516E11E89F15FA163EE8F90B
Many thanks for the confirmation and the links @gee2012 and @the_scotsman!
hey but do we have the same problem like the s8? I mean with the CSC code, that if i flash the BTU I will have the default CSC and for have problems with samsung pay?
Hi,
I recently bought a Galaxy S9+ from Dubai and my CSC is XSG.
I'm looking to change the CSC to ZTO once I'm living in Brazil.
I've read many threads here but I couldn't get a conclusive answer, is it possible to change the CSC on Galaxy S9?
Thanks.

You should have exynos so yes.
Just flash the exynos firmware you want which will give you the desired csc.
Or as an alternative flash a rom which allows you to pick the csc during install

Flashing stock firmware in odin will not trip knox.
Go to sammobile.com and put in your model number and all the available firmwares will pop out, find one from Brazil.

You'll be stuck on XSG and will get OTA updates for that.
ZTO is no longer a valid CSC for Exynos models, since in Latin America, Samsung decided to launch the 'SM-G9650' Snapdragon 845 model instead.
like exchanging csc galaxy s9 exynos. Dude I'm having the same problem here my G965f Singapore XSP I live in Brazil I can not get the right carrier version just OXM _XSP.

If you flash the CSC then yes of course it will change lol.
Then you will get OTAs for that particular CSC.
Just make sure you dont try flashing firmware for a snapdragon if you have exynos or vice versa

Hi everyone i have a question. I am from Bangladesh. I am using galaxy s9(SM-G960F). I SEARCHED in sam mobile for the latest firmware for my region which is BNG and found only 2 firmware both of which are from March 18. So i flashed the BRF8 june patch version from German DBT REGION using odin. Still my active csc remains BNG. Now my question is will i recieve future ota updates as usual? If not what should be my next course of action? Thanks in advance.
Will this work for snapdragon variants?

View attachment 4644987
Any idea about this
hello if you want to change csc you should flash it by odin and then formate the phone to change it , if only flash csc file it will not change
To change the csc do you need to only flash csc or do you need to flash everything?
Since the 9650 and 965u are practically the same phone just one was shipped to Latin America while other one is international could I flash the 965u on my 9650 to enable Samsung pay / change csc?
Hi. Anyone used *#272*<IMEI code># in dialer to change CSC? Just wondering. It's how I changed mine.

Hey,
I have a 965N - meaning s9+ from Korea. I got it there, but know I want to flash a German / European version but CSC needs to be changed because of partition size.
Do I just need to change CSC and partition size will change ?

Hi,
I'm able to flash the Canadian A52 5G SM-526W with the stock firmware successfully using Odin both the complete firmware and just the CSC.
I tried to flash with SM-A526B, SM-A525M, SM-A525F unsuccessfully, it fails every time for the complete firmware or just the CSC.
Can anyone direct me to which firmware I can flash to this phone to activate the built in call recorder?
Thanks!
Indian/INS firmware should likely have it, but don't flash A525 firmware on the A526, you'll have problems.
I did try flashing with the A525 firmware but it just fails.
How can I use the Indian/INS firmware to add call recording to my phone? I tried to use just the CSC file with Odin from A525 firmware and that failed too.
You could try using the XSG (United Emirates Arab) firmware. I have it on my J7 Pro and it has the call recording function, not sure if it is the same for the A52 5G.
I'd suggest you flash the original firmware that came with your device first, then only flashing the CSC from the XSG firmware to see if you get call recording.
And use Frija to get the firmware, just go into its settings and turn on "Binary Nature" option for it to download the 5 part firmware instead of the 1 part firmware.
Sorry my bad, I didn't know there was a SM-A526W for the Canadian market only. I was thinking that your's was a SM-A526B, which is the international version. I don't know if the A526W will accept the A526B firmware, it might work or it might brick your phone.
Thanks for the help, it wouldn't accept the CSC from the SM-A526B firmware or the entire firmware already tried that. Any other suggestion?
Then no, you're pretty much stuck. I don't know whether any of the other Canadian firmwares have call recording enabled.
None of the Canadian firmware's have call recording and I have tried a number of different CSC using the *#272*IMEI# method which are available in the firmware. Guess its a no go

W models can typically only flash W U and U1 firmware
It will only flash W firmware which I have done several times, but it will not flash U firmware or even U firmware CSC file

maybe if you posted the error you receive in patched odinas wellas the error it shows on device screen when it fails then we can help u
for example, if it gives a sha hash error or something its bcuz u arent using modified odin which is needed to flash u or u firmware to your w model and if it gives some error like sw rev check fail its because youre trying to downgrade and need a firmware with the same rev
Here are the pictures I blocked out the DID number
Was looking through the forums and would using a Thailand SIM change the CSC so I could have call recording?

hello everyone,
am french
I currently have a S21 5G SM-G991U but it appears it not work for french SIM,
so I don't know a lot about phone but I think the best solution is to change my firmware from SM-G991U to SM-G991B
aniway, i download that one https://samfw.com/firmware/SM-G991B/XEF/G991BXXS6EWBB but it don't work when i flash it with odin
I either have "SHA256 error" or with a patch version i have "<ID:0/004> Re-Partition operation failed."
Is there a solution to this problem or a better way to solve my initial problem.
Thanks a lot !
