Hi, I've flashed a new original firmware to my tab s3 to change to btu csc but now it doesn't find any updates automatically or manually when tapping check for updates, what can I do to fix this so it auto updates
Use VPN to UK for btu (if btu is UK) and see if it works.

To give you a quick background, I have an unlocked i9300 that I use in the US. The current CSC code is VD2, which I believe is Vodafone Germany.
I would like to update my CSC number to an unbranded variant for the following reasons:
- Don't have to deal with carrier branding (nothing works anyway when I try to access from US)
- I can get the latest FW/Modems/Kernel without waiting for carrier to catch up
- Want to avoid using ODIN / bricking phone / loosing IMEI number
From what I've read so far, CSC code BTU is UK Unbranded and seems to get the latest updates like the LH1 modem, but when I run the *#272*IMEI_num# code, BTU is not one of the options that shows up. Neither does KOR and XEU. (I guess this only applies to the S2?)
So I would like to know...
1. What is the "best" CSC for unbranded firmware that will receive updates quickly
2. Is my concept correct to just update CSC and then I can use KIES to update my phone to the latest available Modem/FW/Kernel for that CSC.
3. I don't have to worry about loosing unlock on my phone.
Thank you!
Hi, first post, but have been using all the helpful info from the forums for 6 months now with my TF201, this is related to my new i9300. I'll try to be as descriptive as I can:
Black i9300 purchased last week in the UK, but currently has the TGY (Hong Kong) CSC code. I tried flashing to the UK JB ROM on Sammobile but came back with an unknown CSC error. Fair enough. I followed some instructions i found to get to BTU CSC code:
Flash back to BTU ICS
Flash BTU CSC package
Use Galaxy CSC changer to select BTU
Reboot, now with a fully working ICS build, and BTU CSC (I9300OXAALF2).
However at this point i wasn't able to find any official OTA updates and Kies told me that my device was not compatible with kies updates.
Flashed the original JB UK ROM I downloaded and now i'm back with the unknown CSC.
Any ideas? I've already tried flashing the CSC package onto JB and that's not worked, so now i'm really stumped. As far as I can tell i've removed all HK CSC codes from my device as it was happy as BTU with ICS...
Thanks
Hi, I live in Romania and after I bought a Samsung Galaxy S2 I had the unpleasant surprise to see the phone has a Italian firmware (3Mobile.it - ICS 4.0.3) and CSC - HUI. The phone is unlocked and my Orange SIM works fine but can't change the CSC code .. only HUI is available. The question is if I want to flash the phone with an ORO - Orange firmware witch has ICS 4.0.4 will I encounter problems afterwards? Will the phone be locked on Orange?
You can flash firmware for any region you like. However, you may not be able to get OTA updates when they're released for your region anymore due to the different CSC. Simple solution to that is to flash future updates manually with Odin like many people here do anyways (you can always get the latest firmwares for country/carrier with Checkfus).
Hi, I have a GT-P5110 and live in the UK, my device is updating to the XEF firmware, is there a way to alter these setting to pick up the BTU update to 4.2.2?
Thanks
Hi everyone,
Currently I have the BTU firmware, which I flashed a few days ago.
PDA G965FXXU1ARD4
CSC G965FOXM1ARCA
Now I see on sammobile that there is an update:
PDA G965FXXU1BRE5
CSC G965FOXM1BRE3
But when I go to the update setting on my phone it says that I already have the latest software.
Any idea why I do not get the OTA and how to fix that?
