Get Update from different carrier using SmartSwitch [Canadian] - Galaxy S6 General

This guide is for Canadian S6 and S6 edge owners who are with Rogers or Fido since the been waiting for Marshmallow update forever. However, This should work for for others as long as the TWO CARRIERS share the exact phone model, which is the case for all s6 in canadian market.
DO it on your own responsibility
Doing this will not delete your data or trigger knox ... However, its wise to backup with SmartSwitch before attempting so.
1- I assume that you running windows and have latest version of samsung smart switch installed (I tried it on Windows 10)
2- install Fiddler (Its used to capture HTTP traffic and we will use it to be man-in-the-middle between Smartswitch and Samsung servers)
https://www.telerik.com/download/fiddler
3- Install FiddlerScript Editor (we will use to write and edit script rules)
http://www.telerik.com/download/fiddler/fiddlerscript-editor
4- Open Fiddler go to Rules --> customize rules
delete everything and past whats in the txt file in the attachment
5 - In this we are interested in only two functionsin that script
the contact from SMARTSwitch to the Sever: Here instead my phone identify itself as Fido phone "FMC" to the server it pretend its Kodoo phone "KDO"
Code:
static function OnBeforeRequest(oSession: Session) {
if (oSession.uriContains("NF_DownloadBinaryInform")){
oSession.utilReplaceInRequest("FMC", "KDO");
}
}
the contact from the server to SMARTSwitch: Here i get replay from the server for Kodoo phone "KDO" but i pass it to SmartSwitch as Fido phone "FMC"
Code:
static function OnBeforeResponse(oSession: Session) {
if (oSession.uriContains("NF_Download")){
oSession.utilReplaceInResponse("KDO","FMC");
}
}
6- Now safe and restart Fiddler
- Also when you open Fiddler go to File -> Capture traffic
make sure its checked
- Also make sure that fiddler can access HTTPS traffic by going to Tools--> Fiddler options --> HTTPS tab
make sure that 'capture HTTPS connect" and "decrypt https traffic" are both checked
7- Another thing worth mentioning, in Smart Switch > More > Preferences > Software update you have to deactivate Latest software Pre-Download
if you keep that option checked, the download will start in background before you click the update button, and procedure will end in error too;
8- Start SmartSwitch and plug your phone.
9- Click on the Update button
10- after Smart switch is offering the update download, accept the terms of update, then immediately when download start preperation, fidller must be closed. it is very crucial that Fiddler be turned off at just the right time otherwise you will get an error ;
Note: those are the codes for Canadian Carriers:
- Fido: FMC
- Koodo : KDO
-Rogers: RWC
-Bell: BMC
- Wind: GLW
-Telus: TLS
- Virgin: VMC
-Sasktel: BWA
-EastLink: ESK
- Vidéotron: VTR

How do I find out, from which carrier do I have my phone? I am using unlocked Canadian S6 in Czech Republic.

This method worked for me on Rogers Galaxy S6. I am currently running 6.0.1. I used TLS as the update carrier.

In the latest Smart Switch, when you plug in your phone it will show your carrier abbreviation letters

If the phone is not rooted, only unlocked... then you should have some apps on the phone from the carrier still. If you are with Rogers, there will be Rogers apps on the phone, if you have a Bell phone then Bell apps... etc, etc

You're right, I have some Rogers applications installed, but disabled.

My Rogers S6 updated quite nicely with this method. I used TLS as the provider in the script attached to the first post.
I had to try this a couple of times to get Fiddler turned off at the right time. Eventually it started downloading the update though and then it all worked great. I just did the update today, but everything seems to be working fine so far.
I used a Windows 10 computer and ran the Fiddler program and Smart Switch by right-clicking and running as administrator. I also used the WINCONFIG button on Fiddler and "enabled all" in that dialog box. Not sure if that is what made the difference. Also, after installing Fiddler and configuring the script with the TLS and RWC changes, I restarted the computer just to make sure all changes took effect properly.
Also updated Smart Switch to the latest version.
Good luck...

I am using this version, flashed a few weeks ago via Odin, is it the latest version I can get, or there is already newer one?
Thanks for your help guys!

This page will show you latest update

for now Sasktel (BWA) and EastLink (ESK) seems to have the latest update

Does it change the CSC after update or leave your original CSC?

We only trick samsung servers that your phone belong to a different carrier thats all, so if the update has new CSC you also get the new one. so when later your own carrier release an update you will still get it over the wifi

Help Brand x10a Back to rogers firmware

Hi,
I had to get my x10 replaced, and i was wondering how i could brand it back to the rogers firmware, i debranded it using the x10a file posted by lollyhost100.
I backed up the rogers file, and i tried to brand it back with the firmware, but iget an error message how the firmware could not be donwloaded, if anyone can help me with this asap, it would be greatly appreciated
thank you
EDIT: NVM guys, i figured it out
and how did you accomplish the task......just curious for future information
You said you figure it out, HOW did you do it? Please tell us. Thanks
I debranded mine as well. It was easy enough but now I'm missing all the correct APN for the x10. I Googled for Rogers APN and looked everywhere. Unfortunately they don't seem to be the same ones I had on my phone originally. The ones I found are very slow compared to what is on when it ships.
Would someone on Rogers with the x10 kindly post all of his APN settings. You will need them too in order to connect to the correct data stream.
Here's a link on debranding: xperiax10.net/2010/04/14/debrand-your-xperia-x10-tutorial/
Again, please post all of your settings before you do it. Thanks!
Here are the settings I had on my stock Rogers firmware:
Name: Rogers Internet
APN: rogers-core-appl1.apn
Proxy: Not Set
Port: Not Set
Username: Not Set
Password: Not Set
Server: Not Set
MMSC: http://mms.gprs.rogers.com
MMS proxy: 10.128.1.69
MMS port: 80
MCC: 302
MNC: 720
APN Type: Not Set
Thanks, that helps a ton. These settings are very different than what I found on Google. My phone is almost back to normal.
Were there any other settings? Unfortunately I won't be able to check them myself until I am able to revert. Seems the OP has succeeded somehow but I am still stuck. I tried a different method but Sony's servers seem kinda screwy right now.
i followed lollyhost100 steps posted on estato, but i used sony ericsson update service to brand back, it worked for me
firstly i connected my phone, opened sony ericsson update service, reinstalled my firmware, and yes it will stil be debranded but yeh, after that i copied my rogers file into the sony ericsson update folder located in C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Sony Ericsson\\Update Service\\db\\13740270\\blob_fs
and opened up the sony ericsson update service, selected the x10 model, and searched for a new update, and it will tell u there is no update available, and an exit or back button appears, but beside it is a button that says install or reinstall soemthing like that, and it started to install the rogers firmware back on the device and it worked
i really dont know how it worked, i guess i got lucky or something, but thats all i did, use sony ericsson update service, not pc companion and give it a shot

how did u reinstall the firmware using SEUS? where's that option?
Yea it's weird. I tried that but it doesn't have an option for me to reinstall firmware. It's pissing me off! lol
did u have the same version as me ?
that was 2.10.4.22
yea it is.. did you install SEUS like brand new when you did it? Or did you use SEUS before?
yup 2.10.4.22
after i select x10 the only option i got is next and it tells me to turn off the phone pull battery out blah blah that's it
Could it be that if we disconnect our internet when we hold the back button/plug in, it wouldn't check the internet and allow us to reflash with the files on computer?
it just showed up, can you post a screenshot of what you get once you check for updates using SEUS?
yeh follow the guide, and put ur phoine into the update mode or whatever you call it, and i used SEUS for the first time when i did this

i was connected to the internet, it just completely skipped the download step for me, i dont know why, it prolly recognized the files in the folder, but close SEUS, and copy your rogers file into the folder, and this will overwrite the other 2 files
For me, i had to change the name of my rogers file to the files found in the folder, this is prolly because i reinstalled the Generic x10a firmware using SEUS first before i copied my files

thats strange i never got that message, is this the message your getting when you replaced the files in the folder with the rogers files ?
Nope, it's the message for trying to reinstall the unbranded firmware...
hmm try putting the rogers files into the folder and trying, maybe that will make a difference
but backup the files in the original folder
Same software version. No button other than exit.

Found a code...interesting....

##BRAND# restart and all carrier branding is gone..if u want it to stay gone install samsung package disable and debloat it and block the update crap before I put ur sim in....afterwards u can control apn and other settings..I am still messing with it....found the code UNLOCKKERNAL also but don't know we're I use it....got this from hiddenmenu.apk the manifest.xml

So, I tried ##BRAND#.
It more than debloats your phone. It clears out ALL sprint settings including those that give you data access. However, you do gain access to APNs as long as you have MSL. I had to input all my APNs back in to get 3G to work. Still trying to figure out why 4G and LTE isn't working.
I suspect I can do a hands free activation and get my data access back by doing a master reset. ##72786# doesn't even get me a reboot, and I can't update my profile at all. The PD3 update got downloaded but there was an error along the way so the data is still there but it can't be installed even if I wanted to. I'm hoping the master reset clears this out, and then I can disable the update service with my new access.
PS... for what it's worth, I have PC5 and am not able to keep the "You are not subscribed" popup from turning it off. I suspect I can disable DSS to prevent that but my focus right now is to get LTE and 4G capability back.
I'll update as I explore more.
Edit: Seeing "Installing system update" is not what I wanted to see......
Edit2: doing a system reset fixed LTE and 4G connectivity issues... and brought back the bloatware. Fortunately, no update to PD3. I'll try again to see if I can get the data settings to stick after debloat.
Edit3: For future use just in case. For LTE replace EHRPD with LTE at location.
Name: APN2 EHRPD internet
APN: n.ispsn
MMSC: http://mms.sprintpcs.com
MM Proxy: 68.28.31.7
MM Port: 80
MCC: 310
MNC: 120
APN Type: default, mms, dun
Protocol: IPv4/IPv6
Roaming: IPv4/IPv6
Bearer: eHRPD
Edit4: sooooo no dice. I've tried taking sim out before reboot, after reboot, master resetting it, debranding it, manually entering APNs....... nothing works. APNs greyed out. The most likely way to get this to work is to stop the activation mid way and try to modify it then.
I've also started noticing a new message appearing. Something to the effect of "Applications are locked or disabled from modification" or similar. That never happened before today.
Still going to keep fiddling with it, but I'm running out of ideas.

[GUIDE] How to edit APN on unlocked Boost Mobile LG Stylo 2 LS775 (and others?)

1 - Extract MAINROOT.zip to your adb folder.
2 - Open a Command Prompt as administrator in your adb folder.
3 - Type in step1.bat in command prompt and hit enter.
4 - You should now be in an adb shell prompt, type in run-as con and hit enter.
5 - You now have shell access and you can tweak the android system with these permissions but tweaking the barebones of the linux kernel will be impossible without a full root. Selinux is the culprit.
6 - You can use the package manager (pm) to block apps and settings command (settings) in this adb shell prompt to tweak the workings of android or use the activity manager to access the hidden sprint and lg menus to change APNs and tweak CDMA radio control.
7 - In the adb shell prompt type in pm list packages and hit enter.
8 - From the list of packages find one that has system activities we'd be looking to access and tweak such as com.lge.hiddenmenu.
9 - Type in dumpsys package com.lge.hiddenmenu and hit enter and in the list you will see activities which can be started, such as com.lge.hiddenmenu/.Power.TherDaeMitigation.
10 - Type in am start -n com.lge.hiddenmenu/.Power.TherDaeMitigation to start the activity.
11 - You'll want to disable thermal mitigation to boost the raw performance of the phone.
12 - Repeat steps 7 -10 to access any activity you find interesting and wish to tweak.
13 - Hint : am start -n com.lge.SprintHiddenMenu/.iot.IotHiddenMenuMain is a good one many people were hoping to access.
Thanks to @anthonykb. He was on ZV6 firmware version.
I no longer have a stylo 2 so I am limited in what help I can provide - I just asked @anthonykb for permission to post this guide here because I knew how much I wanted to do this when I did have it
This method may also work on other phones such as LG X Power (someone care to try?)
It also might open a path to find a way for permanent root for those on firmware higher than ZV3?...

Hi.
I'd appreciate your input on my situation - unlocked Boost LG ls775a on Android 7, Z8, - I have SPC code, I have access to h*n menu.
T-Mobile SIM - only LTE mode works. I can send SMS or browse internet, but regular call does not work. If I press call #, - the phone permanently attempts to call, no error, - you can switch to other apps. T-Mobile Fast APN.
I tried to turn on VoLTE RF in h*n menu, but no luck.
I believe the phone might be still configured to route calls thru CDMA (Boost legacy). Can you give me general approach on how to de-couple from CDMA or any other ideas to make regular calls work?
Also, if I switch from LTE mode, say, to GSM/WCDMA auto, - nothing works at all (no calls, no internet, SMS - not attempted).
Next, I tried FreedomPop SIM (for ATT). FreedomPop registers thru WiFi. Then I turn off WiFi. In LTE mode - no internet, no calls (in FreedomPop calls routed thru Internet) are possible.
I read somewhere on XDA forums, that ATT doesnt allow LTE if MIED is not registered with them, so not registered phones work on slower-than-LTE protocol/speeds. Other phone works with FreedomPop, H+ is displayed next to connection quality bars, and ATT is displayed as network. Does it mean I need WCDMA working on the phone, and it somehow doesnt work?
I have menu similar to this t=2022763
Edit APN
Hello. I'm from Ukraine. I need your help. I have a phone LG G Stylo LS770 android 6.0. In it, the network of the Ukrainian mobile operator is working, you can call. But the Internet does not work. The APN settings can not be changed. How can this be remedied? Thank you for the information.

If you flash the image then no there shouldnt be any issues. There might be issues with the OTA however. To flash the image go to Android Q image site download the image for your device and then extract it out of the zip. After you do this there is a file called flash-all.bat which you need to edit. Open the file in notepad and go to the last line and in the last line remove the -w (this is so that when you run the script it doesnt wipe your data). After that just boot your device into the bootloader and run flash-all.bat as an administrator (you dont have to but running it as admin avoids any potential UAC issues) wait for all the commands to finish and then reboot your phone. Keep in mind that after you update the first boot will take longer than normal
i installed the beta 3 on my verizon pixel 2 xl which i us in germany.. After the installation i clicked on "add mobile network" in settings.. I think i hard bricked some modem settings now..

This is probably the eSIM manager, but the eSIM is locked network wise?! I don´t know... I obviously checks with some backend as i need wlan data to click "add mobile network".
I can´t get the SIM to work now ... If you update to beta 3 on your 2XL don´t click on "add mobile network"!!!

Open up Settings. In the search bar type "carrier". Click the first result which will open carrier settings. You'll see another "Carrier" button. Should make it work when you select your SIM card.

My network is also ****ed
Edit: Never mind, in French, you need to search for Fournisseur de services. Click on it and click to add a new network.
would you say this is stable enough to use all the way to final release?
Tinder crashes

Is Live Captions working for anyone?
Okay has anyone else had an issue with Q beta 3 not mounting /system and /vendor as read write? Not even TWRP can mount these as r/w and my device is unlocked and rooted
Just got the SIM recognised again. In the UK, goto settings and search for operator
Anyone knows if banking apps work fine with the 3rd beta? I saw many people complaining with previous betas. Also any major bug with that beta?

My banking app (Nationwide UK) works as expected, however mine actually worked since the first beta, even though it didn't for the majority of users. Not sure why. As for bugs, nothing major has cropped up since updating.

Help Removing Carrier customization on inserting sim into factory unlocked device?

My Samsung Galaxy S8 is the unlocked variant with CSC XEU purchased unlocked from the UK. I purchased a 3 (Three) UK sim only contract and put it into the device and restarted it.
The problem now is that it has changed the default homepage URL to http://mobile.three.co.uk/hb/HutchKey on Google Chrome and also Samsung Internet browser. The reset button is greyed out as shown in the screenshot:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Things I have tried:
Removing the sim card and restarting the device then clearing the app data of Samsung Internet and Google Chrome.
Samsung Internet has successfully reset the default URL to google
Google Chrome is still stuck on the carrier URL: http://mobile.three.co.uk/hb/HutchKey
How do I set clear the carrier URL of Google Chrome and set it as the default?
Thanks.

its the CSC taking over and it seems that its fairly aggressive. Youre going to want to flash a firmware with a multi CSC or just a CSC that doesnt contain the firmware you dont want installed. Firmwares are much like Windows ISO's in that any install disc youve ever had of windows has had Starter, Home Basic, Home Premium, Professional, Enterprise and Ultimate all on the same disc and the serial you enter then tells the installation to add the features of whichever version you have available per the serial you have. The same thing applies to the CSC thing. Many firmware iterations have a great deal of CSCs built in so that there isnt really a need of separate firmwares for specific carriers and so forth. If you get a firmware set that doesnt contain your carriers CSC and flash it, the phone should work just fine, just wont be able to install your carriers specific crap you dont want, but it will also not take OTA updates. Youll need to flash those manually. Big flippin deal tho, amirite? Flashing firmware is as easy as scratching ones head IMO.

The strange thing is that my CSC is still showing as XEU which is the unbranded CSC and part of the OXM firmware. It is showing as XEU/XEU/XEU. The problem I noticed is that when I clear data for google chrome, the data still shows as 20kb in size so it is not fully clearing the data whereas in Samsung Internet when I clear data is shows as 0 in size.

its likely rebuilding its repos every time youre clearing it as its calculating its available space. You could try resetting the device without the sim in it and see what it does over wifi only vs when it has the sim in it
