I bought my phone in the EU. I am using English settings, but my provider is Austrian and I want my phone's location to be recognized as Austria.
Yet, when I updated my phone to OxygenOS 12.1, for some unknown reason it now has the Kingdom of Saudi-Arabia listed as my "regulatory".
How do I change that?

I just recently flashed my phone with a Samsung Official release of Jelly Beam 4.1.2 for Samsung Galaxy Beam GT-I8530.
My Journey to this point
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2535462
After a successful installation the first thing that stood out was that my phone was in German. The steps that I followed did not state that the firmware was released in Poland; but this is what further research revealed to me.
Now I find myself asking:
How important is CSC?
How will CSC affect me, who I live in the United States?
[my google accounts associated to the United States]
I changed the default CSC setting, which was Germany, to one related to UK but not associated to any carrier. The reason was to hopefully change the phone English. Once that was done I went on to the language & input settings and changed my language to English United States.
My phone is now in English. I have been able to download and use my apps. The one thing that didn't got as expected was my contacts. To my understanding, android syncs/backs up my contacts to my gmail account. Well, none of my contacts were sync/restore to my phone. [GRR]
All the official Jelly Beam released I've found for Samsum Galaxy Beam GT-I8530 are the same. One is a test built and the other Official. Both released in Europa. Installing Jelly Beam included 3 files, .pit, CSC & CODE [PDA] I wonder if there is CSC file for this side of the world.
With that said, these released are called official yet none of them are found nor hosted on the Samsung website. ... I don't get it.
Thanks
anybody?
Does anybody care to help?
I bought a Galaxy Tab S6 LTE in the Emirates, the region is naturally XSQ. I want to change to SEK Ukraine. Since both regions belong to the OXM Region multi-regional firmware, I inserted the Ukrainian Vodafon SIM card and made a hard reset via the tablet menu. The region has not changed, XGS remains.
What am I doing wrong?
Hi all,
Tab S6 in my country is only limited to 128gb version, while I heavily rely on Lightroom mobile and sometimes need a lot of space for my raw files. This made me buy 256gb variant abroad.
My country code is XEO (Poland) and my device was bought in Germany (DBT). Is there an option to change CSC (including paid programs) to do this?
Of course I have tried Odin and XEO firmware, but it turns out that it's multi-csc and always sticks to original DBT. I have also tried *#272# code and flashing with SIM card in and out, but CSC always stays DBT.
Any of you had any luck?
Anyone out there? I am interested in this as well - I have the international version and am in the US on TMB but have a CSC indicates I am in Poland. I worry that I am not getting timely updates - I hear than TMB has updated to the Feb security patch and I'm still rocking the Dec '19 patch.
Same thing here as well. Got a T-865 XEF but I need DBT
The only effective method seems to use https://www.samkey.org/ through credits (for the TM-865 it asks for 6 credits (which for a single use it is better to buy on a site like ebay) then they send you login ( with the 6 credits) and if it allows, the change of CsC "THAT IS IN THE MULTIROM" is better before making sure with the Apk of Info SAM * INFO to see that CsC HAS the Rom installed, if the CsC of our choice is in The device, without problems, but if it is not available, it will not be possible unless before uploading the Rom + CsC to change.
After several attempts, and tutorials to change XEF / Fracia DBT / Germany, it seems the only method that works
It is necessary to respect the binary, to the case, the Hardware Asia, Europe, America, and not to put the Firmware of a container in another (it will not work) the ROMs of the Global version, EU in the EU and those of the USA in the USA and the from Asia to Asia
tool and "1 credit" even if I bought 6 as the official support page indicated to me when consulting about the SM-T865 LTE device
Original from France XEF it was impossible to change the Region Code for another of my interest DBT German because it is updated more frequently than the rest of the EU Global zone
PHE and XEF from Spain and France follow at the end of October 2020 with May patch while German DBT was updated twice in September 2020
The process turns out to be easier than usual
No need to even format the device in operation
Only with Phone * info you have to see the CSC available in the Rom available on the device and if the one of our choice DBT is already there in my case you can start
If the CSC is not present, it is when it will be necessary to Flashar before with a compatible Rom equal or higher in Binary and that contains the CSC to finally change
In Windows, which is where the SamKey software runs, you have to change the local language to US English unicode (it does not affect the local language of our pc
The code operation lasts only 4 or 5 minutes and as I say it does not erase anything from the device
Finally we have a CSC DBT / DBT / SIM1
The active CSC is the one that receives the HOTA from now on and from that moment receives update from Germany
Today it is the only reliable and efficient way
Hi!
I got a Samsung S21, model nr SMG991B/DS. Which seems like the international version. But my software version has DTM in it (according to samsung support, this is the german version).
So because I have the german version I can't use Samsung pay properly its looked to the german region. So I would like to flash it so it changes to Nordics region.
Is this possible if so how or is there any other way to change the region for samsung pay?
The phone is not locked to a carrier.

Hi mate
Yes there are ways , check my post here
For Samsung Pay to work the phone CSC and the Samsung pay account must be from the same country , in your case if phone region (CSC) if from Germany but your Samsung Pay account if from somewhere else it will not work ...
So first thing you should do is check your phone CSC go to Settings /About phone / Service Information .. there check under service provider software , you will see the CSC information in your case in this format XXX/ ZZZ,ZZZ/ YYY
XXX will be you active CSC, this is the one you need to change to the right country
ZZZ are sim related, with dual sim you got 2 sets
YYY can't be changed is the region where to the phone was manufactured for , not important , it has no effect

Hi
DTM is Dutch T-Mobile (Germany) .
You need it to change to your Country / Samsung Pay account to make it work
Is not that much the rom but the CSC , you may need to flash a new rom if your desire CSC is not installed in your current rom...
How do I find out if the CSC is in my current rom? I need the swedish CSC.

That is tricky but , is probable that your country CSC is there , most european countries are under the same rom...
This is the latest rom for Sweden

Worst case scenario... just flash the Swedish rom
Hi, I have just bought a samsung A52S from amazon, to use in the UK. It seemed to work fine, except for WiFi calling. After speaking to my carrier, they asked if it was a grey import - although I didn't realise it would be, it had a foreign plug on the charger, so it probably is. The carrier has suggested the fact that it has the wrong country firmware could be causing the problems. After a google on here, I can see that I have the generic german CSC (DBT), instead of the generic UK (BTU). I used ODIN to flash the BTU firmware, but the CSC still shows as DBT. Just so I know where to focus my efforts, does anyone know whether having the wrong CSC might prevent WiFi calling?
Thanks!
*edit* my questions have moved on, so I've posted a more accurate thread here, please delete this one:
Help changing CSC code - flashing BTU keeps DBT CSC?
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...
