[Q] Flashing to XEO (Poland) firmvare + changing CSC with Odin? - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, I want to flash my galaxy as fedup with waiting for updates.
I got BTU, UK unbranded, unlocked S4
I am polish, so thinking flash it to polish firmware as they get it fast.
GT-I9505 XEO I9505XXUBMEA thats the one I want go for
Can someone tell what is it ? is it network firmware or unbranded?
I would go for it only if I can change CSC code to XEO, so I can get OTA updates.
If not I will keep waiting for BTU
And Dont really want XEO polish carier firmware, as I can flash to Three UK BTU network, would be the same and dont have to change CSC.
So, main questions are
What it is XEO ? what network ?
Can I flash it + change code to CSC all safe?
and how to do it ? Odin
Thank You.

as far as i tried you cant change csc with flashing . unless you flash single csc not multi.
only way is to root with auto root than change csc wit csc changer and then flash desired firmware with odin.
xeo looks like it is simfree so its just general for poland

i didnt find any searching on net so i guess no. they usualy pack 20+- csc together
there was some talk of chcnging csc with flashing twice with odin without auto reboot. but that didnt work for me.

try it. remember if you want to change csc with single flash(wich i dont think so ,that worked on s2) after first boot reboot to recovery and wipe data/chache. in recovery you will see wich csc applied.

Can someone help me out as I am new to all of this...
I am using a Samsung galaxy tab 7.0 (p2610), and I flashed a jelly bean update successfully using odin. I am not rooted.
I have a system update in the notifications window that is stuck there, that is not working (process fails), this is due to the csc code being in great britain.
I am in Canada, I have Odin ready to go, can someone please show me how to change the CSC of my device to Canada?
Where do I go to download the appropriate file? After I assume I load it up in Odin with device in recovery mode, and flash using the "CSC" option in Odin correct?
Any help would be great.

You will need the full UK ROM from Sammobiles or checkfus.
This may give you the Korean CSC, if it does you will need to download the CSC changer for SGS/2/3 from the market and select BTU, this will wipe your data though.

The Turkish ROM contains the CSC for Turkey only I believe, you need to flash the latest ICS from Sammobiles or checkfus and flash through Odin, then change the CSC.
Btw the English ROM is BTU
and another Btw, we haven't got JB for unbranded devices in UK yet, only O2 and Three carrier branded.
when i type *#1234#
i get these
AP : I9300XXBLH1
CP : I9300XXLH1
CSC : I9300ATOBLH1
so which country is my phone right now ?
I don't know the sales code but if you Google Samsung sales code ATO you will be able to find out.
But because you bought it front Turkey there's a 99% chance ATO is Turkey. If you want the English firmware you needs BTU then change the CSC to BTU (English firmware has a few CSCs included)

CSC Problem

Few months ago I flashed Android 5.0 Poland and today I wanted to flash original version which is Android 5.0 Romania. I did flash it and CSC changed from XEO which is for Poland as far as I know to SEE (unkown) instead of csc ROM which is for Romania.
My question is how I can get rid of SEE csc and get the ROM csc which is normal for my current firmware. I did tried factory reset quite few times.
Google ?

The thing is that I don't want to have knox 0x1 after Rooting the phone. The reason I did installed Romanian Version it's because I want to go with at Warranty to fix something.

Changing CSC Without ROOT!

Hey! My issue is to somehow change the CSC without root on my device. I live in Hungary. I bought my phone at carrier (T-Mobile) my original CSC is TMH. When Marshmallow released for Poland i did manage to put it on my device. Now... because XEO is a Multi-rom after a clean install my CSC went to TPH (Portugal) I searched for how to change csc without root (in this case XEO) but im failed to do it.
So guys, is there any option to do it?

it is not similar; we are here talking about the only PIT available for us, OXX, which includes XEO, ROM, SIO etc but default one seems to be TPH, and factory reset brings us always to TPH

I had to flash 5.1.1 BTU to get rid of TPH. From there on, I came back to my original CSC. Therefore, I changed my CSC from TPH to SIM without root.
Edit: if I understand correctly, you can't flash BTU over TPH and then your original over BTU?

1. when flashing 601 XEO I was on 511 BTU, but the CSC it applied was TPH, even after factory reset
2. SIM is in different PIT than XEO so you got lucky....

Yes,but i went from TPH to BTU and then from BTU to SIM. That's why I don't understand why you can't. Flash 5.1.1 from BTU in Odin, do a factory reset after BTU flash and TPH will be gone.
On older Samsung phones there was a code that you dial in the dial pad, which opened a menu so you can chose your CSC, but I don't know if it still works on the newer phones.

Download the latest firmware for your region
Extract PAK version download with 7-zip and copy the CSC
Flash firmware for your region BL/Ap/CP/CSC_PAK (the one extracted earlier) from PAK firmware
Only add the CSC from PAK firmware
Your device will be wiped.

Hi, I had a G928C with the same issue only the difference was I needed to migrate from PAK to XSG. So, what you need to do is, download a PAK firmware from sammobile and a BTU firmware (BTU is for the UK region). Flash BTU first and then right after a factory reset and then flash your PAK firmware, don't forget to do a factory reset otherwise your old csc will remain intact and don't root your phone please. Don't void the warranty.
The problem actually is most of the firmwares out there are MULTI-CSC so, your old CSC always remains intact, BTU on the other hand is a single CSC firmware so, your phone is forced to change it's CSC as there's only one CSC available when you perform the reset. So, when you'll flash the PAK after BTU your CSC will be changed to PAK from BTU.
So, you gotta do this XSG->BTU->PAK
And I repeat, please don't root your phone. There's no joy in that unless you really want to do something that actually requires a rooted phone.
Best of luck
P.S If you are able to get Factory firmware of PAK that would be great. (The one with separate CP,CSC,BL etc files with PIT as well).

Problem Multi CSC

Hello,
i have a belgian S7 edge and flashed a while ago the british nougat beta firmware.
yesterday i wanted to go back to my countries own firmware but was still marshmallow on sammobile.
so i installed this version using odin.
but when i did a recovery and wiped everything it installed german apps and the language was in german.
i tought that my CSC wasnt correct so i only flashed the CSC from the marshmallow rom for my country but the problem remains.
now i have multi CSC but i only want one and that is CSC PRO (Belgium Proximus)
how can i fix this? i tried the code with *#27*imei# but nothing works?
because of this problem i cannot use VOLTE on my own operator.
You need to flash a totally different CSC that is not multi csc with re partiton enabled in Odin... then flash the csc you want to be on again with re partition enabled in Odin.
And which csc shpuld i choose for example?

Try flashing a KSA CSC firmware (Saudi Arabia) and then flash the CSC firmware you want
I also have the same problem. Last month I flashed a BTU firmware because I haven't got the Nougat update yet here in the Philippines and I really wanted to try out the Nougat update as soon as it started rolling out in UK. This month the Nougat update finally rolled out here in the Philippines so I decided to go back to Philippine firmware which is XTC. After flashing I got the Thailand CSC (THL) even though I flashed the Philippine firmware (XTC). My s7e is not rooted and I have no plans on rooting it. Can someone help me go back to Philippine CSC? Thanks in advance.

The CSC you are trying to flash maybe part of the same firmware so you have to change to another csc entirely. Try KSA CSC firmware and flash the PRO CSC firmware
I am in the UK and my phone orgibally had XEU CSC and I wanted to flash the BTU CSC to get Nougat however because BTU and XEU were in the same firmware this meant when I flashed the BTU CSC I still had the XEU CSC.
So I flashed KSA CSC and flashed BTU CSC and now I have BTU

The KSA CSC wouldn't be part of the multi-csc you have so if you flash that and flash the firmware that has the CSC you want you should get that CSC

When flashing the KSA CSC firmware, did you add the BL,AP,CP AND CSC files and did you choose the csc file and not the home csc?
Did you follow the same step when flashing PRO CSC firmware?
