if you flash non Indian roms , you will lose native VOLTE calling function.

I wouldn't mind using it, I have the Wi-Fi version so what an effect me. But it probably won't work I have the SM-T830.

Any screenshots?

can i use it with SM-T830 model (WIFI only) ?

No

Will I still get OTA updates in the future if I flash this region's firmware and will I lose any data

hey all- any reports on whether something like Swift Installer will work on Pie? it does on my Pie on Note 9 but i know it doesn't on the S10.

Probably not, this should be a multi CSC ROM, so unless he change his CSC manually, he will stay on INS (India) CSC

Indian CSC (INU or INS) is not available in the French firmware. So when we flash CSC, it'll change the default CSC to French. This hap to me when I flashed French Oreo rom on my tab. I had to revert back to Indian rom to get the VOLTE call feature back.
Please excuse me if I'm wrong.

Can someone please share the boot image for this ROM? I'd like to root it using this method here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software-hacking/root-recovery-root-device-magisk-t3779454 (rooting without recovery) because trying to flash the TWRP recovery that we currently have failed.

I am not sure if the French ROM is multi CSC, if it is, it should include the INS CSC, I flashed my Note 9 with Indian firmware but it was multi CSC, and my phone still have the MID CSC not changed
I didn't have the time to flash my tab yet, I'll do it soon and report if my CSC changed

Flashed my tab, CSC have been changed to XEF but I am using it without a Sim card, I used the home CSC so my data stayed intact without wipe (for testing because I factory reset it manually to avoid bugs)

If you've upgrade can someone see if you are able to downgrade back to Oreo? I am happy with the Oreo rom and hate when they make it so you can flash a lower build incase the new one is not up to par. Its odd that the French version is up before the Korean international version.

You have to choose the correct ROM first. So if your phone is SM-A505F you need that ROM. Not recommended to use other ROMs like SM-A505 FN, G etc.
Once you have the correct ROM (must be newer than your current) use Odin 3.13 or newer to flash your phone . before flashing do back up and then remove all accounts!!! Then remove your SIM and memocard and do hard reset. Connect to Odin in download mode and flash. Wait till its completely finished and boot up your phone. 1st boot can take up to 10 minutes, once you see the Start screen insert the SIM card from desired region and let the phone restart again.
My phone for some reason picked up CAC product code (Uzbekistan). Flashed latest ROM inserted my Vodafone SIM and after restart my phone was on BTU (UK unbranded).

I my case this method for FN version did not worked any different way to do it?

No it wont trip knox as long as you are flashing official samsung firmware.

OK I investigate a bit today
looks like I was able to change CSC from ROM to FTM (Freanch Orange) using brand Orange from Poland (OPV) - all was done with JUN patch the same patch level files
I would like to change from ROM to XEO (Poland unbranded) and for this I did not found any way to work

I think that it's somehow let you change the CSC only one time... I recalling that I was able to do it on my A50 and A70 but only one time...

in my case it is more like I can change to branded CSC like orange or T-Mobile ( did this few time) but it not give me Poland as a country
I cannot change to unbranded CSC like XEO - it always show ROM as active CSC (softwanre CSC it is showing XEO) but for example news I have from Romania

typically it will remain as whatever sim you have in the phone.. there are tricks u can do.. id search some more as theres many csc related threads.. also make sure that csc u want is actually included on the device already since if it doesnt exist then well you cant use it until u get the right csc..

You didn't say what region you want. In my case I was after UK (BTU) or Germany (DBT).
Do hard reset (sim and memory card remove). Turn on phone without sim and wait until it says No sim inserted. Insert the sim from region or country you want to have on your phone.
Make sure you have multi CSC ROM. In my case it was ok. Changed from CAC to BTU.

There's no LTE/4G only mode. So if this is what you want no need for flashing different ROM.

You need multi CSC ROM. First time boot up without sim and memory card. When boot finished will tell you insert sim. I think Samsung set up phones to allow ONLY one change and only first time...

how to Update using ODIN

Hello
i don't know if this question was asked before i tried to search but nothing
i came from xperia xz and flashing was just as easy as downloading the FTF and flashing in flash mod
i bought my S9 that was stuck at 1 Dec 2018 software and no new updates are available (even with smart switch) to download so my best solution is to update it manually using ODIN
i used to have a galaxy gear watch and s5 and flashing was also simple but i came across a thread that said something about CSC Version and i am sacred that i may brick the phone while trying to update it
can someone point me in the right directions ?
my CSC : G960FOXM2CRLI
Service provider SW ver.
SAOMC_SM-G960F_OXM_KSA_PP_0002
KSA/EGY, EGY/XSG
baseband version
G960FXXU2CRLI
build number
PPR1.180610.011.G960FXXU2CRLI
and i live in egypt but the phone was sold is KSA if that's matters

If there are no updated KSA firmwares for your S9, flash any CSC for the G960F, Germany (DBT ) has the latest June update

If you have KSA sim card need to flash KSA firmware with only Home CSC also and if you have EGY sim card and will come OTA downloads
KSA/KSA,KSA/XSG

Well yes you need CSCs to match for OTA, but it is not necessary for normal usage, once my region releases the latest update I will flash back for OTA

so it's normal to flaash any firmware even if the CSC doesn't match? only the phone model number right? flashing on ODIN like thr normal way kust like the s5? nothing else need to be done ? like enabling/disabling stuff on developper options ? OEM unlock? sorry for my noobies questions

Normal if your own region CSC has not updated their firmware yes, but you will not receive OTA updates until the CSCs match and will have to flash manually each update
There is a big thread about it so I'm not going to go into it in detail here, quick search should find what you need
Nothing else needed, boot to download mode and flash with Odin 3.13.1

Thank you

No way to debrand?

I've tried to debrand my phone by flashing open market firmware (XEO, Poland). I downloaded the newest version of Odin, flashed it but now my CSC under settings says OPV/OPV, OPV/EUX/OPV. OPV is my carrier's CSC, I'm wondering what that EUX is. I've looked it up on Google and it seems like I'm not alone, seems like Samsung changed something and older methods no longer work. The question is - will I still receive updates released for my carrier or I'm screwed for good? Phone INFO app says my active CSC is OPV. I'm running S20+ 5G (G986B) Exynos variant.

Same problem here, I've flashed it with XEO POLAND G986BXXU1ATBM firmware using Odin3 v3.14.1_3B_PatcheD, few minutes later it showed "PASS" and nothing changed. Same branded firmware after reboot..

It seems, that many more 'branded' CSCs are now part of Multi-CSC. For me, this is DTM (T-Mobile DE). It osed to not be part of multi-CSC but it is now part of OXM.
This means, that you can not force it anymore, as you already ARE having the exact same firmware with the 'branded' CSC. Just checked, OPV is in deed part of OXM now.
In the Ultra Section is a thread showing the CSCs belonging to OXM: https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...galaxy-s20-ultra-g988b-firmwares-5g-t4060443/
I have not yet found out / gotten an answer from anybody how to change CSC. Samkey also is not supporting the S20 series ATM - dont know, if this will change.

What I have worked out is that when you flash a multi-CSC firmware file you end running the CSC one letter earlier in the alphabet out of the. Available multi-CSC list
E.g. I had a VOD branded S105G and flashed BTU firmware, and ended up with TEL CSC
I also tried flashing BTU on an H3G branded A70 and ended up with EVF CSC
The original branded product CSC also never changes

This should not be necessary? Doesn't that trip Knox, despite original Samsung Firmware?

Since now it's part of Multi CSC, does that mean I will receive updates faster? I can see other polish carrier's CSC are listed as single so I assume they are kind of separate firmware, am I right?

Honestly I do not know, if the respective CSC will be getting OTAs at the same time.
However, you can always flash manually with HOME_CSC, that is true.

Enable OEM unlock does not trip Knox. As long as you flash official Samsung firmware files in Odin Knox is never tripped
My own personal experience on S10 and above is you cannot flash a different CSC with OEM Unlock disabled
(Flash completes successfully but CSC doesn't change)

When changing from one e.g. branded csc to multi csc with the S10+, this worked fine without enabling oem unlock. Well, anyway. Flashing OXM multi CSC over OXM multi CSC will not change anything, right?

I found that you have to be on a single CSC before flash to multi-CSC and also you don't always end up on the CSC you expected
e.g. Flash BTU on a VOD product and you end up on TEL CSC (one letter in alphabet below VOD) and not on BTU
