You will need the firmware file to flash with Odin. Use this link to grab the firmware file: https://www.wuala.com/Samsung Galax...riginal Firmwares/Asia/July/?key=AfzUZSU4SpKU
NOTE: This link is provided by "darkstriker" the author of this brilliant post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=723596
You can also use that as a reference in case you get stuck somewhere.
Coming back to the point, download Odin v1.3 and the PIT file (512 specifically) from this link: https://www.wuala.com/Samsung Galax...din/Odin & Bootloader(.PIT)/?key=AfzUZSU4SpKU
Follow these simple steps: (DO NOT CONNECT YOUR PHONE JUST YET. IF IT IS ALREADY CONNECTED, REMOVE THE USB CABLE FIRST)
1. Make sure Kies is not running. Ensure it is also not running in the notification area.
2. Start Odin v1.3 and make sure these options are TICKED / CHECKED
a. Re-Partition
b. Auto Reboot
c. F. Reset Time
3. Click on the PIT button and select the PIT file downloaded earlier (512 specifically)
4. Click the PDA button and select the file "ADD_ODD"
NOTE: This firmware archive does not contain any other files needed by Odin.
5. Switch off your phone and start into "DOWNLOAD MODE" using the key combination: VOLUME DOWN + HOME + POWER BUTTON.
6. Now connect the phone to the computer and wait for Odin to pick up a COM port and show "available" status.
7. Click on the "Start" button and wait for the process to complete and the phone to subsequently reboot. DO NOT INTERRUPT THIS PROCESS BY ANY MEANS.
If all done well, you will be back to JG4 in no time.....
Cheers.....
Hey there,
Any luck getting it running properly??
Cheers....
The easiest way would be to update via kies, I tried to get the update notification in the Kies, not updated though, follow these steps to get the update notification in kies.
Connect the phone to kies, and then run regedit.exe , change the regedit keys
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Samsung\Kies\DeviceDB\X]
"SoftwareRevision"="I9000DDJF3/I9000ODDJF3/I9000DDJF3/I9000DDJF3"
"ProductCode"="GT-I9000HKAINU"
"HIDSWVER"="I9000DDJF3/I9000ODDJF3/I9000DDJF3/I9000DDJF3"
"DEVCONINFO"=""
X = Device Number
and run the upgrade frimware in kies and you will see JG4 to be available to be updated through kies!!

What were the modifications in the registry. I know modifying the productcode can make a difference with respect to the available firmwares but does changing the SoftwareRevision and HIDSWVER enables us to downgrade the firmware?
On a side not I wanted to revert from JPC to JM1 (through kies with XUE productcode hack). So I first flashed JF3 trhough odin. Now it seems that there is some swisscom stuff left. For instance the start page of my internet browser is now in a german language swisscom site. Any1 can give me directions how to get back to my original stock configuration? Which is dutch OS language and dutch swype JM1.

That i suspect is because the upgrade was done through Kies. Odin on the other hand gives you the option to re-partition. At least that is what I think is causing this. Have you tried the "Factory data reset" option under Settings - Privacy? Or perhaps getting into recovery mode and then doing a factory reset? That might do the trick for you.
Cheers....
Thanks a lot, it worked quite smoothly

The market works properly for you? You can download apps?
I have this same problem.
Was uprading firmware to JG4 via kies then boom Kies went error - send report to MS crap.
Now when I try to odin flash i get
error cache/sec_csc.zip
tried to go back to JF4 tried lots of JG4 firmwares but i still get the same error on reboot.
Yes the market works properly for me, i can download stuff

Hi,
I didn't want to open a new topic so I'll just reply here.
I'm about to flash a custom ROM on my GalaxyS, but I'd like to have an option to revert to original ROM if needed.
I understand that I need that original ROM in order to revert/reflash it, but I'm having trouble finding it.
This is my current, original ROM:

Can you tell me where do I find it ?

Hello Forum!
I bought a Galaxy Note8 Duos on eBay.
After one year I noticed that it originally came from Singapore and not from Germany.
So on CSC I have SIN/SIN/XSP instead of DBT.
Updates are not released there as regularly as in Germany.
How can I change the CSC number without rooting the device and Knox still working?
I have already tried to reinstall the device using Odin and the German CSC file.
But it didn't work. It remains on Singapore.
This question has been asked many times before, but all the answers don't work for me.

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I have now by the Singapore Rome no disadvantages, but I would have nevertheless whole gladly a German one.
Is there also a good way to get the bull**** apps like Facebook & Co. To uninstall?
I don't need them and deactivating them is not enough for me.
Does it still work with a PC, USB cable and ADB?

You may first find the newest german firmware adequate for the carrier you are subscribed to, then flash the entire firmware, not only csc, also use the newest ODIN version, that should work
Go to Sammobile and lookup Galaxy Note8 N950F and download the firmware. Once you follow the instructions, you will need to select the CSC that it comes with and NOT HOME CSC as this will keep your original csc. NOTE this will factory reset your device as normal with any csc change.

That's exactly what I did. But it remains with Singapore
I know this thread is a bit old, but does anyone happen to have a working solution in stock now?
Simple if it is a multi rom and has the desired country code on the package. Install a sim card of the country you are/want and factory reset the phone at startup the phone will ask you to change csc to the sims country code that has found if you press yes to change it will reboot and boot on recovery and will apply the region/country csc of the sim card you have. After the boot up your phone will be XXX/XXX/YYY where XXX is the original csc and YYY is the csc of the sim you had installed.
Carefully you will need to reset your phone to achieve that so backup before doing it .
Hope it helped
P.S your desired CSC must be on the original package of the rom installed on the phone, aka a multi rom. Let's say on a N950F international unlocked phone.
Done!
I've finally made it.
My approach:
1. all data backed up
2. the DBT firmware flashed with Odin
3. the device switched off
4. factory reset and wipe of the cache and Dalvic
5. smartphone with SIM inserted newly configured
... it didn't work until here and CSC stayed on Singapore.
6. Dialed the following number over the phone:
*#272*My IMEI number#
7. DBT selected
8. At "Select type of Install" I have chosen "Sales Code Change"
9. smartphoea was restarted and deleted
10. after the new setup I now have DBT/DBT/XSP
Now I'm waiting for the Android 9 update.
Interestingly now the phone number *#272*My IMEI number# does not work anymore.
Note to self: the morale of the story is to start at Step #6 (after manually creating a backup).

I'm not sure if steps 1-5 are necessary for step 6 to be done.
Insert a German sim card then reset the phone. When it boots up for the "first" time with the sim it will recognize it and it will prompt to change the csc to the sims country code (dbt) if you press yes then it will go to recovery and change to DBT CSC and you will have DBT/DBT/DBT .

It's not working.
I tried it several times.
I also reinstalled the firmware 3x.
I also read several times on the net that you can't change the last digit without rooting the device.
I can no longer dial the CSC number.
There is always "Unknown MMI code".
Dunno mate what is happening. I had my note send to Poland for burn in on display when it came back it had DBT/DBT/XEU the only solution to change that was with the factory reset and a German sim card. On Munich service center from Samsung they flashed 3 times the german ROM and nothing was happening, after resetting the phone it asked on boot up to change the csc to DBT and that's it.
I'm somehow stuck on N960USQU1CSAA, and each time I check for an update, I'm told that my "software is up to date"...
I have an ATT Sim card, and active ATT Service, but somehow my software updates broke...
How can I get N960USQU1CSC1 or N960USQS1CSD1?
Although, I'd prefer to do update.zip, and not ODIN... Any hope for this?
Thanks in Advance...
Why not ODIN man? It may solve your problem.

Okay, I could odin... Just desperate to get this thing solved... (although confused how I got hung up on an old version)
Where can I get the ATT version of this firmware?
I see a Verizon CSD1 -- is that identical to the ATT CSD1? Should I get OTAs if I install the Verizon version?
Here ya go.

Can I straight ODIN this, or do I have to do anything special?
I always factory reset 1st for best results. Many dont like to lose data but me..clean install is best.
Sent from my Still Rooted NOTE 8
I'm downloading this file now (thanks for the link) - am I correct in assuming that this particular file is specific for AT&T-carrier-branded Note9's? I've been pulling my hair out (what little I have left), since I got this phone, it's NEVER received an OTA update - EVER. After much trial from AT&T tech's, their last-ditch solution was factory reset & wait for system to update. So, I'm gonna do something I haven't done since my Note 2, & ODIN this FW.

I have the same exact problem, I downloaded this last night. Does it need to be odin or can I flash through recovery?
Hi All! I believe this was the Verizon version, but I did it anyway.
Had to use ODIN...
GREAT NEWS:
1.I DID NOT LOSE DATA using ODIN (NON ATT VERSIONS DO NOT WIPE DEVICE~!)
2. It booted up with the ATT Logo.
3. I Immediately got a notification of the April update upon reboot, and it downloaded the ATT update, and installed it NO PROBLEM!.

do bl,ap,cp,home_csc.md5
userdata is just more carrier bloat. but might have things u want. but the one that might cause data loss is csc.md5. but home_csc.md5 should keep it.
but its always good to stars fresh sometimes.... so id actually say fill in all slots and USE csc.md5 to wipe clean.
I have a Galaxy Note 9 that was originally an AT&T Phone in USA. I purchased it unlocked in Canada and I use it on Fido Network. The Baseband version is N960USQU1CSAA. It is running One UI 1.0 and Android 9. Is there any way to root this phone? Do I have to use same baseband version?

I was trying to dowgrade my 973U1 from official Android 10 to a previous 9 version. I chose XAA CSC which I wasn't sure if it is correct and the latest 9 firmware (G973U1UES2BSKA_G973U1OYM2BSKA_XAA).
I used HOME_CSC to keep my data. Odin reported success when it was done, but the phone failed to start saying:" can't load android system. you data might be corrupted". I had to do a factory swipe and it worked.
This is where things went wrong. First the adaptive brightness was completely gone. Instead there was an "outdoor mode" toggle, which I learned was a deprecated feature in S6?? There's no mentioning it anywhere after S7. How was this even possible?? The adaptive brightness toggle in the settings is actually for outdoor mode since it just simply put the screen brightness to its maximum.

Later I found that most sensors failed to work, gyrometer,accelerometer and heart rate sensor.
Is any of this due to I flashed the (possibly different ) CSC firmware ? I am about to do another flash again, but could a bad flash bring damage to the hardware?

no. its probably just a bad flash. re-download the firmware from sammobile.com/firmwares and try it again. Use the regular CSC since youve recently used it and shouldnt disrupt too much.
factory reset from within the phones OS first, then factory reset it via stock recovery, then flash the firmware with the CSC and see whats what
Wait if U1 firmware will allow a downgrade, will U firmware allow it too?

It turned out the home-CSC ruined it. Simply use csc, always worked and no additional reset required.
Though it doesn't matter anymore, why would HomeCSC fail every time. Doe something changed in the firmware recently so no data retention anymore?

im not making absolute sense out of your question, but the reason a HOME_CSC flash wouldnt work is because of the base OS change. Parts of 9 arent compatible with 10 and reverting is way different than upgrading.
Hi,
i bought the M31 from amazon.de in March 2020 and since then i haven't even received a single update.
The current security revision is at February 2020 which is just sad.
Anyone else witnessing the same issue?
EDIT: This issue occurs when the SIM inserted is from a country where the specific phone model is not supported by samsung (therefore they don't publish updates for that country.).

I had the same issue on 2 phones. Softwareinformation was AUT/DBT, AUT/DBT. Had to insert German SIM in first slot, do a full wipe data/cache and start setup from scratch. At begin there comes a message that SIM was changed and if to adopt the phone to this, confirm and check after first boot. My software information now is DBT/DBT, AUT/DBT and I get all updates.
PS: Someone suggested before doing this to remove the Google accounts and to clear cache/data of "Google-Dienste-Framework" (you find them in Apps when you select to show system apps). I have done it but do not know if it is really needed.
Good luck.
Hi thanks a lot for you reply: It led me to do some research and i think the issue is that the phone is being used on another European country (CSC -> EUR) but the firware is German. On top of that, it seems that there is no available firmware for my CSC (EUR) (picture attached).
So it seems that the OTA updater is looking for a firmware with the "EUR" CSC code and can't find anything, right?
Is there a way to force the "active CSC" to be "DBT" so i can get the updates? Unfortunately i can't easily get my hands on a German SIM card (i've ordered one off of ebay.de, i'll update this post once i get it).
You are correct. In my case AUT stands for a Swiss SIM (open provider).
What you still could do is manually update using ODIN and the latest DBT firmware. But it would not change the CSC settings in your phone.
Once you have your SIM (or can even just borrow a SIM for that process) this is my proposal to change the CSC settings:
- insert German SIM in slot 1 and start phone
- sign out of Google accounts
- wipe memory in system app Google-Dienste-Framework
- factory reset and restart
- first thing, skipping all sign in to Google or anything, again wipe memory in system app Google-Dienste-Framework
- delete data and cache in recovery
- factory reset and restart and check CSC information
- if it changed to DBT/DBT for slot 1 you should get OTA updates from now on
Important: whenever asked to accept changes because new SIM was detected then yes
Later, when you put your non German SIM in slot 1 and similar message appears - do not accept a modification
Update for anyone having the same issue or my future self:
Finally my German SIM arrived and it all worked out. I am now receiving OTA updates.
Steps done:
- Inserted German SIM to slot 1
- Factory reset phone
- Phone booted up, skipped the setup procedure, only connected to wi-fi
- Checked for updates: They were finally found, installed and the phone rebooted
- Inserted my "regular" SIM into slot 2 and turned-off SIM 1 (from "SIM manager" in settings) since i don't want to use it.
So now, the phone's service provider SW version is DBT/DBT,EUR/DBT, and therefore should keep receiving updates from the German (DBT) region.
