Hey guys!
So I've had my S3 for a few weeks now and i bought it online from Kogan and assumed that the CSC would be XSA because i chose Australia for the firmware update thing when i first booted my phone up.
However Kies shows my phone as being ORS which is the CSC for Slovakia.
I decided that I'm going to flash my phone to another CSC but I'm stuck on whether to change it to XSA (Australian) or to flash an European stock ROM. This is because Australia is horribly slow at receiving updates and most countries in Europe are the first to get them.
So since I have never flashed my S3 before, I would really appreciate it if someone could explain how and where to download the appropriate files from. Basically I want to be able to get updates quickly without having problems here in Australia. Any comment is welcome.
Thanks!

If you want JB now you need to flash the Polish ROM, either ICS and update or just flash one of the ODIN images. Or you can use a custom ROM based on that official release. Start with the sticky threads, then have a look in the development forum.
Hi there
While in holland working I bought the s6 edge sim free and while I have no problems, I know it is defaulted to Dutch software, so default voice is dutch on "ok google" and some prejnstalled software is dutch.
Is there a way to make my phone think it is the UK version so the next firmware version that comes down will be english?
Thanks
Yes download the BTU or XEU firmware and flash it through Odin.
if not work delete the hidden Img from the firmware
Thanks for the quick replies.
Quick question as its been a while since I used odin, do I need my bootloader unlocked and does it wipe the phone? I'm currently just stock with no root or anything
Just boot in download mode and ad the firmware in Odin [AP box]
ah right, cool, will download it now then. I'm getting the version from SAM Mobile, but on a free download so it will take an age!
I presume the baseband being different won't matter? (Download G925FXXU2BOFJ and mine is G925FXXU1AOE3)
The baseband will be updated to after the firmware is successfully flashed. Dont worry about that part, just make sure you download the correct firmware for your S6 model version. So if you have a G925F then you also need to download the G925F firmware.
Hi i bought a second hand s8+(SM-G955U) it was still on nougat and i didn't get any OTAs, so i update it to Oreo with Odin. I still dont get OTAs, and i never could find my CSC related firmware in g955u models on sammobile. so i looked up my device in IMEI.info and find there that my device is actually G955W and from there i also found my CSC based firmware in Canada my CSC is XAC. I just also find on the back cover of my phone that my s8+ is actually SM-G955W. so my question here is how could i go back to g955w firmware? Just download g955w firmware and flash it through odin?
In setting my phone is
SM-G955U
Baseband version G955USQU5CRL2
Service provider SW ver.
XAA/XAA/XAC
and the firmware ive downloaded from SamFirm is
Model Sm-G955W
Region XAC
PDA G955WVLU5BRJ2
CSC G955WOYA5BRJ2
Please i really need help i dont know what to do here.
Hi, I have a new A52s, I bought it off Amazon, and didn't realise it was a grey import. It works fine with my provider (iDMobile in the UK), apart from WiFi calling. iDMobile say the problem is because it's German firmware (DBT CSC), so I started reading up on how to change this. All of the tricks using the phone dialer codes no longer work, so I downloaded the UK Unbranded firmware (BTU CSC), and flashed with Odin. However my phone remains as DBT. I ran Phone Info, and that says that my current firmware is only DBT CSC, with no others available. I did read somewhere that you could get a CSC change if you repartitioned with Odin while flashing. Does anyone know if that's the case? Or are there other approaches that I need to use to change the CSC?
I'm afraid I don't have an answer but I have the same question.
Am looking to buy an A52S 5G primarily as it's supported by my carrier for Wifi calling but carrier price is extortionate.
Flashing carrier firmware worked before on an old S7 but I'm not sure about doing the same on an A52s 5G.
How did you get on OP ?
I'm in Australia with a Taiwan BRI csc a52s.
Wifi calling never worked on android 11, but now I've updated to android 12 and wifi calling is working with my australian telstra sim!
Hopefully this means wifi calling is no longer dependant on csc.
What happens when you flash different csc firmware with odin?
I want to change the CSC of my S22+ from XAA to INS. Is there any way without rooting?
Hi there, I wish to change the region of my S22+. Unfortunately I've bought a Korean region version and wanted to flash a European Region firmware. Can someone please explain to me how I can do that (if it is possible ofc). Right now my phone is in stock condition (no BL unlocked, no Root).
Thanks in advance

SD Native call recording & CSC (without rooting)
Hi everyone, Looking for some insight and more educated projections. I'm in Canada, and our phones (SD) typically didn't get native call recording (or any recording allowed as a matter of fact after Pie was rolled out). I had to purchase a...

With samkey, you should be able.
I'm thinking to do it too with a USA CSC to have acces to the Android beta 13.
I don't know if I can.

You dont have to change the CSC, just flash an unbranded EUX rom.
DTM is, where the phone was activated, if i remember it right.
If i flash a orignal EUX Firmware.
I still have waranty and the status is official ?
Should i go with Odin ?

Use this tool to get your phone's supported CSC list (under ADB commands tab). Then in the main tab you can change your CSC.
Takes seconds, for me no data was wiped and OTAs work perfectly. Changed on both my S22+ and my Tab S8+.
Is your phone SM-906U1 ?
From which csc to which csc did you change?
SM-906E, from XXV to ILO.
Ok, The discussions is on SM-906U1

Why do you change CSC from XXV to ILO ? what are the benefits ?
I have same model SM-906E XXV/XXV
Does it allow showing "EOM Unlock" option in Developer mode for BL unlock?
(OXM) firmware => Multi-CSC

I bought my phone in Vietnam, but live in Israel and preferred to have my local CSC. I don't know if I could use VoLTE or WiFi Calling without changing it.
And yes OEM Unlock is an option for me under Developer Options.
Since different people are asking different questions, let me post what I know and can help you.
1. You are trying to change CSC from A to B which belongs to same model, can be easily done using SamFW tool or you can also try Samsung shell exploit from S22 forums.
2. U to U1 can be cross flashed using patched odin, which will change csc too.
3. If you are trying to do cross flashing means your model no doesn't match the model no of CSC you want to have like XAA to INS then sorry it's not possible.
