Alright, I bought a s6 edge. The guy said it is F model but even he knew very little. I opened up phone info samsung, it said
PDA: G925F
CSC: G9250 ( China)
BASEBAND: SCV-31
BOOTLOADER: SCV-31
what I found out is that SCV-31 is Japan firmware
:Things I initially found but couldnt figure out
-Download mode wasnt in english and said G925J
-IMEI On the back was same as in device and it said G925F
-about device said G925F in model number and In baseband number*
-Phone info Said g925J in product name.
All I want to do is update that phone to nougat( its currently on Lollipop, no rooted now)
What I think as a possibility, that guy was a freak who bought international version from DUBAI, knew japan language and Flashed Japan bootloader and Lived in china. Damn those freaks lol.
I just want to get it offiicial. Can i flash a newest G925F rom? Is it perfect or should I just flash baseband and bootloader from Japan ROM( SC-V31)
And PDA, and CSC from G925F?
How does those names correspond in new Odin?
Is PD same As PDA? and AP is baseband?

It's means the device has the German CSC version installed.
hi. my friend bought a galaxy s3 from europe but i think what he got is carrier specific. its sales code is VOD so i think it is a Vodafone carrier specific phone. you can check the details in the image attached.
now we are planning to change the sales code (or CSC?) from VOD to XTC since we are from philippines.
we tried to flash a firmware for philippine region into his s3, we used the firmware I9300XXBLH1.
after that, upon checking CSC through *#272*imei#* we have found out that its sales code is still VOD and theres no available CSC to choose. ( we hoped the sales code would be XTC after flashing the firmware from philippines)
unfortunately, kies did not recognized his phone and the messaging service is not responding, so we flashed back again the original firmware (I9300BUBLG3).
is there still a way for it to be an XTC? we want it to be I9300XXBLH1
thanks for the help.
Hi Folks,
I have a question regarding debranding / updating my S3 (4.1.2)
This is all new to me and with the wealth of information here and elsewhere online I'm a little unsure about the correct files to use.
My S3 was originally on O2 Ireland and it has been unlocked so I can use it on Vodafone Ireland.
The phone is on 4.1.2 and Kies and OTA firmware update both state I have the latest firmware.
So now curiosity has gotten the better of me and I want to manually update to 4.3, and while I'm at it, I want to debrand and just have a stock firmware.
Reading online says the Switzerland firmware is stock and bloatware free.
These are the details...
PDA: I9300XXUGNA5
CSC: I9300AUTGNA1
MODEM: I9300XXUGMK6
If I flash with these, is that all I need to do to debrand and have the latest firmware?
There is a 4.3 Vodafone firmware on Sammobile so I suppose I could use that if the Swiss one didn't work.
As a noob to flashing, ROMS, Odin etc etc I appreciate any advide or guidance.
Thanks
Ciaran
No stock rom is debloated, they all have tons of Samsung rubbish included.
Any firmware for the i9300 will work, just make sure the included modem will work in your country. Usually anything European is fine but you may lose OTA due to wrong CSC.
Current phone details are...
AP : I9300XXELLA
CP : I9300XXELLA
CSC : I9300O2IELL1
Hoping for some more advice!
How do I know if the csc is correct?
This is the Vodafone Ireland file,
I9300XXUGNA5_I9300VFGGNB1_VDI
and the (more generic?) Swiss file,
I9300XXUGNA5_I9300AUTGNA1_AUT
I know the Swiss file won't have any branding, but don't know if the modem and csc settings are correct.
The Vodafone one on the otherhand will have the correct settings but lots of VF bloatware and branding.
Hi everyone,
I'm in a conundrum. I've gone and soft-bricked my Samsung G3 I9300T and my attempts to flash it with various stock firmware have fallen flat. Can anyone offer me help or direct me to a thread (for dummies) for identifying which firmware would be suitable for my I9300 as I'm led to believe there are differences eg. ZSALED (Hong Kong) vs UBALE6 (Brazil).
Phone details:
Model: GT-I9300T
I've seen other threads posting AP, CP & CSC but I'm not sure how to obtain these details
I'm sorry for being ignorant. But many thanks for your time.
History of phone:
I purchased it off kogan a few years ago.
This is my first time rooting and flashing my S3 and everything's gone horribly wrong.
When I try to put it into recovery mode it will 'cycle' the Samsung Galaxy SIII title page but never reach recovery mode
I can put the phone into Download mode.
I've attempted to flash the phone with these firmwares:
-GT-I9300_TGY_I9300ZSALED_I9300OZSALED_I9300XXLEF.tar. md5
-CheckROM_V4_LG8.tar.md5 (from a thread: PM me if you'd like to know it)
-I9300XXUGMK6_I9300OXAGMK6_I9300XXUGMK6_HOME.tar.md 5
(I use Odin3 v3.04-3.09 to flash these but everytime I run into a Fail)
Hi,
Could someone direct me to a thread that'll teach me the notation of firmware. B/c I still don't understand: the meaning of the designations for PDA & CSC.
Example
Model: GT-I9300
Country: United Kingdom
Version: Android 4.3
Changelist: 2168382
Build date: Thu, 28 Nov 2013 12:07:41 +0000
Product Code: BTU
PDA: I9300XXUGMK6 (What does XX, UGMK6 mean?)
CSC: I9300OXAGMK6 (similarly, what does OX, AGMK6 refer to?)
MODEM: I9300XXUGMK6
And what's the difference between Samsung Galaxy SIII International (firmware) I9300XXEMC2 & I9300XXUGNB4? (XX means Australia, but what do EMC2 or UGNB4 mean?
Again I apologise if I irritate some of you. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks,
Kinetik

Thanks for the reply, Darke. Would this NZ firmware still be compatible for a handset in Australia, Sydney? I'll give it a try anyway

No reason why it shouldn't, its the same as the one infront of me. At any rate hopefully it repair your phone so you can maybe install your proper rom
Hi guys, Just wondering if anyone out there can help me out with my problem!
So I bought my phone in Malaysia and in settings -> about device -> Model number, I found out I have a SM-G925F phone. Running on 5.1.1 and baseband version G925FXXU3COI9. Now back home in the Netherlands I was waiting for a Android update but did not get any through OTA or SmartSwich. So I was looking into flashing it manually through Odin. Then in download mode I noticed that my phone had a different model number SM-G925P! Which is the American Sprint model number for the Samsung S6 Edge if I am not mistaken. I downloaded the app “Sammobile device info” and Phone Info *Samsung* as well and they both state I have a SM-G925P model with baseband number: G925PVPU2BOF7.
Which model do I actually own? I want to flash it since I also have a CSC CHN(china) code and I just want to flash it with a PHN Dutch android 6.0 firmware. Can I do this or will I soft/hardbrick my phone?
Hello, I have got the same problem.
What is You choice?
Have You been upgraded firmware?
Can I convert My S6 EDGE SM-G925P to SM-G925F ???
