[NEWS] New A520F Modem and Baseband German T-Mobile A520FXXUCCSK1 - Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Guides, News, & D

Hi Folks,
I want to share my last update of my A520F, which is a german T-Mobile firmware.
PDA/AP-Version = A520FXXUCCSK1
CSC-Version = A520FDDXCCSK1
MODEM/CP-Version = A520FXXUCCSK1
Location = DTM — Germany
Creationdate = 2019-11-01
OS = Oreo
OS Version = 8.0.0
System and hidden files was removed. I flashed the files on my SM-A520F with Odin under Windows.
No problems, everything works as expected.
My System: TWRP 3.3.1 and Lineageos 16.0-20191121
I dont know if you can flash the file over a stock rom. I think here you need to download the full firmware.
THIS CAN BRICK YOUR PHONE!!! I am not responsable for anything you do with your device.

Thanks for the newer firmware. I managed to successfully flash it for lineage-16.0-20191225-nightly-a5y17lte-signed.zip.
Would you by chance also have A520FXXUCCSL1 which includes the December security update?

[Help] Swype Languages Options are missing after upgrading

Hi Guys,
I got a Samsung S2 from Hong Kong, upon upgrading to the latest stock firmware (ice-cream) via Kies, my swype have lost many languages
I got a new Swype automatically from updating the firmware, but then I do not see the list of languages, for example, I need to type German, but I dont see it anymore, and there are no options for downloading.
Swyper verison = 3.26.92.37724.8882.GT_I9108
Phone Firmware = [email protected] #3
Android Versio = 4.0.3
Is there anyway I can uninstall this pre-installed version from stock firmware, and get the latest beta somewhere?

[Tutorial] Root after November security update (A5 2017).

Edit: You can follow the solution of @ashyx through the following link to fix the problem can not flash twrp or boot via Odin. I think it will work
Link: https://forum.xda-developers.com/sa...g-sm-a520f-2017-kernel-source-t3557622/page31
Hello everyone,
After I updated the latest firmware, I was unable to flash BOOT or TWRP via Odin. It just returned the result that ONLY OFFICIAL BINARIES ARE ALLOWED TO BE FLASHED (RECOVERY / BOOT). I think samsung locked the bootloader. Today, I have found a way to fix this problem because knox 0x1 but can not root is not pleasant at all!
I only tested on my A520F, not tested on any other device. I am not responsible for any errors on your device.
1. Go to http://updato.com and download 2 firmware updates with your CSC.
+ Latest firmware 7.0 (November security).
+ Latest firmware 6.0 (MM).
2. Backup your important data
3. Reboot to download mode.
4. Add AP, CP, CSC of firmware 7.0 (November security) to the corresponding slot in Odin.
5. Add BL file of lastest firmware 6.0 (MM) to BL slot in Odin.
6. Start and wait a moment.
7. Setup and after that, you can flash TWRP or BOOT via Odin without bootloader errors.
Enjoy!
Sorry for my english...

Hi ahyx, i searched google about not being able to flash twrp or boot after security update in November and know the information is that maybe samsung has locked the bootloader. So, I just tried replacing the BL file of the old firmware that I saved on my laptop and it worked. I do not notice that you have found the solution first. Sorry for it as an act of plagiarism. I will link to your topic as a good faith (sorry for my english)
Oh man, thank you very much !! helped me here too! I had my a5 17 with this 'softbrick' but thank God I was able to install twrp, and so doing root haha I just can not downgrade to the MM.
this one are 100% work?

Vou need to download the latest Nougat 7.0 firmware (A520FXXU2BQK4) and fw plus MarshMallow 6.0.1 (A520FXXU2AQG4).
I, as a Brazilian, downloaded the fw of Brazil.
And then in AP, CP and CSC you put the respective AP, CP and CSC files of the Nougat rom
and in BL the Marshmallow rom file.
It works, man!
At first I had some problems, the smart was out of system because before finishing the process I got some errors (old usb port, bad contact, etc.). Try to keep all the smart USB drivers on your PC, turn on the debug and also the OEM mode and restore your a5. Today I have been able to downgrade and I am using the stock rom 6.0.1
guys can someone please upload MM boot loader so we don't have to download the ROM completely (approx 2.1 GO )
THANKS GUYS
When i try to flash it says: SW REV CHECK FAIL DEVICE 2 BINARY 1

OK two things.
1. You can't have downloaded the boot image specified as it's a rev. 2 binary not 1.
2. Your device has been updated to rev. 3, so you're probably out of luck for downgrading.

I just bought the A520F/DS (Malaysia) which still has MM 6.0.1. Can I use the procedure - Flash latest Nougat (Rev. 3 or later) in AP, CP, CSC) leaving BL blank - then do root? (Would I be correct to assume the bootloader will be unaltered, i.e. still be MM 6.0.1?) Thanks.
Just dropping by to leave some info, I successfully flashed TWRP on my single sim A520F with December bootloader updated to january after porting 7.1.1, and another one, same single sim, with January bootloader. Although, i have a friend with Duos that can't flash anything too since november patch.
So i think this issue is more like a bug, i don't see why samsung would lock only duos devices and not single too. N8 issue is actually the dissappearing oem unlock toggle, csc related. Some countries have it, some countries don't. But in our situation, this is more like a frp lock stuck on, no matter why oem toggle says. I surely hope i am right and future updates will bring duos users the freedom back.

Has anyone tried updating to January Security Patch using the same trick? Say, Odin combination of rev 2 BL (from MM) + rev 4 January nougat update (AP+CP+CSC) and had their phones rooted after flashing?
Update: Done using this trick and had my device rooted successfully.
@ashyx
Hi
Is it possible to skip updating bootloader when flashing, to avoid rooting problems?
e.g. Can we update to android O with an unlocked bootloader of Android N or MM?

Still no Android 7 for my A5 2017 - Custom ROM considered

Hey,
I'm new here so greetings to everyone .
I'm using a SM-A520F (UK import) and it's still on Android 6.0.1.
Basically I'm considering flashing this update with odin but I got some questions first .
My device's baseband version is: A520FXXU1APLL -> Does the BB version matter when I install the new ROM?
Can I install Android software from all countries? (I've read this will work..?)
I found Android 8 for my device on sammobile (AUT Version) with BB version A520FXXU4CRD5.
Would this version work for my phone?
Greetings

F707U AT&T Odin Firmware Links

For those who don't know, F707U is the model number of all of the US carrier versions of the Galaxy Z Flip 5G. The F707U1 is the model number of the same device, but sold by Samsung SIM unlocked and with no carrier bloatware. Firmware is 100% interchangeable among these models: any U or U1 firmware version can be flashed to any U or U1 device at any time, assuming that you're not trying to downgrade the bootloader. Also, U firmware is identical for the 4 base files (AP, BL, CP, CSC) for each individual build, no matter which carrier it comes from. So if you download 2 different carrier versions of the exact same build, the 4 base files will be identical. Where the firmware differs is in the USERDATA file - that's where the carrier bloatware and customizations reside.
These are used for converting from one carrier's U firmware to AT&T's, or from U1 firmware back to U firmware with AT&T features and bloat. These are much tougher to find than other carriers' files due to AT&T's policy against public hosting of their firmware files - they can't be obtained from SamFirm or Frija or SamMobile. But I pay for a subscription to a site that gets AT&T files, and also sometimes gets other carriers' firmware files before they hit SamFirm/Frija, so that's where my files come from.
So I'll be uploading at least one USERDATA for each bootloader version, and I'll do the full firmware (for at least one build per bootloader level) if AT&T was the only carrier to get that specific build.
Since firmware is universal on U models, for a full flash you can use the other 4 Odin files (BL, AP, CP, CSC) from any other firmware of the same build. You can probably even mix and match builds (as long as the Android version is the same), if you can't find files for the exact same build. You can't mix and match bootloaders though, so the other 4 files have to at least be from the same bootloader level.
Happy flashing!

NOTES:
- I won't be providing detailed instructions on how to flash files in Odin. If you're not aware of how to do that, there are countless "beginner's guide to Odin flashing"-type threads here on XDA already
- I compress extra small for space and bandwidth savings. The default Windows extractor can't handle it, so you'll need a 3rd party tool like 7zip, WinRAR, etc
- My naming method for AFH folders is: build - bootloader - Android version.
So "SAT - 1 - 9.0" means the full build number ends in SAT, it's bootloader version 1, and it's Android 9.0. When bootloader and Android versions increment, the first build to have those changes will have its folder notated appropriately.
- If the phone doesn't do it automatically, the correct procedure for manually switching from one carrier's firmware to another is:
1. With no SIM inserted, flash the full U1 firmware package including non HOME CSC
2. Upon boot, insert a SIM of the carrier whose firmware you want
3. Watch for the popup that says "reboot to apply new carrier settings" etc, and do it
4. After that restart completes, reboot back to Download mode and flash the full U firmware package, with the USERDATA file of the carrier whose firmware you want
- USERDATAs for any other CSCs/regions can be gotten from SamFirm or Frija - for the latest version. If you need an old USERDATA for a CSC/region that's not commonly found, let me know and I can probably get it.
- For identifying USERDATAS, and to know what region/CSC to use in SamFirm/Frija:
AIO = Cricket (not available via SamFirm/Frija)
ATT = AT&T (not available via SamFirm/Frija)
BST = Boost Mobile
CCT = Xfinity Mobile (Comcast)
CHA = Spectrum Mobile (Charter)
SPR = Sprint
TMB = T-Mobile
TMK = Metro PCS
USC = US Cellular
VZW = Verizon (available via SamFirm/Frija, but Manual Entry is required - Auto will not work)
XAA = U1 firmware

Thank you. So I flashed everything with odin. Trying to de brand from att to unbranded. I flashed successful but the att logo and bloatware are still there. tried to use Tmobile user data, but does not overwrite theatt one. Am I doing something wrong? maybe forgetting a step to delete att userdata before flashing tmb's one? Thank you

What (if any) are the differences between the US models (F707U) and the European models (F707B)? Can European builds be applied to US models? I'm asking because Android 11 has been released for the European models but not the US ones yet.

Nope
AT&T USERDATA for Android 11 has been added - build TL6.
I also added the full firmware package because I didn't see that anyone else had uploaded it on AFH yet.
From now on, you can expect AT&T USERDATAs to be added right away, when new bootloaders and new Android versions are released
