[Q] Stock XEU firmware - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi folks,
I'm looking for the stock XEU firmware for the Note. I'm currently on CPW CSC but I'd like to switch to the stock CSC to make sure I'm not late for any updates.
Does anyone know if any of the updates here: http://www.sammobile.com/forum/showthread.php?t=27 contain the XEU firmware?
Much appreciated.

go to your phones dialpad.
type in *#272*Device IMEI# (replace device IMEI with your device's IMEI)
it should show you a screen where you can change your CSC code. see if XEU is listed. this will hard reset your phone, but has less hassles compared to flashing.

Thanks, I should have mentioned that I'd tried that. Unfortunately I don't have any other options when I do that - looks like only the CPW CSC is actually installed on the device.

[Q] Flashing stock ROM doesn't change operator CSC...

I just bought a I9305 from my french operator called SFR and I flashed it with the stock ROM. After Wiping Data from recovery mode, I managed to get rid of all the operator bloatware but, when I connect my phone to Kies, it still telles me my CSC is CSC:MA1(SFR). Is that normal? Or is there something extra I need to do to get rid of my operator's CSC? Is that even necessary?
Thanks.
Hi,
As I tell you on Phonandroid Forum , everything is right.
You just have to check your CSC code by enter
Code:
*#1234#
if you want to manage your CSC code* just enter
Code:
*#272*IMEI number#
check your CSC. You should be in NEE area.
Now you can change it in
XEF (for France - not sure existing yet for I9305)
*Take care: full reset ( factory reset ) your device if you change CSC

Change CSC

Hello, is there a way to change csc to XEO in G920T version? Phone info says that i have BTU csc right now, and i'm not able to use LTE in poland. Also i can't change csc with various programs because it's single-csc.. So, any ideas? Please help

Can't change Australian Note 8 CSC - Stuck on Telstra

Hi Guys,
I purchased a Note 8 (950F) through Gumtree and although I knew it had the Telstra firmware,
I figured I'll just flash the regular Australian XSA unbranded firmware via Odin
and get rid of the Telstra branding as I have done in the past with other Samsungs.
Currently I use an Optus sim (which works) but have lost VoLTE and WiFi calling.
I have tried searching through these forums for a solution but can't get a clear answer.
When I flash the unbranded XSA firmware (BL, AP, CP and CSC, NOT Home_CSC)
I still get the Telstra branding and the software info remains on TEL/TEL/TEL.
Is this normal now? Are we forced to buy a phone from a network carrier if we want to use their services?
Or is there a way to make the switch but I am just overlooking something.
I don't want to root the phone or install anything custom as this will break some banking apps that I'm using.
Please help...
Currently I'm on XEF/XEF/VAU because just upgraded to Oreo, the original CSC is VAU/VAU/VAU
0. Backup your data
1. Download New Zealand or other country firmware.
2. Take both SIM and SD card out.
3. Flash the firmware of other country using CSC, not home_csc
4. Then check your CSC, should be changed.
I did't test the following steps, but I will try this weekend.
5. Flash back to Australia firmware.
6. Check the CSC number, should be changed to XSA
7. Insert SIM card.

Thanks for your input, I was considering this as I want Oreo as well but not game enough to try and mix other countries CSC's yet.
I read somewhere that Oreo will be widely available for most countries as of 1st of April, so I might wait till then and try again.
This does NOT necessarily mean Oz...
Remember, we are at the end of the list to get it as our stupid legal system upheld some patents on icons that Apple took out...
Also, if you're with any of the Telco's, add at least 6 months to that date...
Did you ever manage to get this sorted out? I'm in a similar boat to you, I have an Optus device but a Telstra Sim, when using the Telstra sim, I have no option for VoLTE, but when I use my Optus sim I do. Would like to get VoLTE and other features working on my Telstra sim.

Downgrading to oreo help

I'm trying to downgrade from one ui to oreo to get photo editor Pro back on my device but I'm struggling to find the correct firmware on sammobile, my model number is SM-N950F and I'm in the UK on virgin mobile network (who use EE) so not sure if I use the EE firmware as the only match I can see in the phones settings is under Service provider SW ver. Where BTU is written multiple times and UK BTU is an option in the firmware list. Just don't want to flash the wrong one. Any help appreciated.

You should be okay using the LAST oreo firmware for BTU.
Since you said you have multiple BTU like this:
BTU/BTU/BTU
Dial *#1234# in dailer and look at the CSC: line if you see "OXM" in the n950FOXM.... then you have a multi-CSC firmware. So you'll can use the BTU with the multi-CSC OXM.
Just be on a cautious side going back to oreo needs a factory reset! So BACKUP first!
What does the photo editor pro do that the regular photo editor in PIE doesn't do?

Change CSC within multi-CSC

HI everyone,
I have a G970F/DS that has come with XSG firmware and I am trying to change the firmware to XSA
According to the image here https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s10/how-to/g973f-g973n-multi-csc-firmware-t3903050
For OXM multi CSC
SM-G970FXXU1ASAT-G970FOXM1ASAT
SM-G970FXXU1ASBA-G970FOXM1ASBA
The XSG is in the OXM multi CSC and XSA is in the single - I do not know what this means exactly.
I have tried
Using the *#272*IMEI# code with both IMEI codes, but i do not get a menu after typing it in
Flashing with new firmware from http://updato.com/ with Odin with the sim card in and out
Formatting the device using recovery mode with the sim in and also out+putting it in after
Using Odin to flash VD2 firmware and then back to the OXM firmware
When I flashed VD2 I got VD2/VD2,VD2/XSG in the software information but this went back to XSG/XSG ,XSG /XSG after flashing the OXM firmware
The sim card I am using is an Australian one from Optus and Odin is 3.13.1
Nothing seems to change to XSA.
Am I doing something wrong or is there something else I need to do?
Thanks

You can try inserting a Singapore SIM to see if it triggers Late Customization prompt to reset phone to XSP. 272 menu works in XSP

I don't have a Singapore Sim but I will see if I can get one to try with.
Do I need to reset the phone with the sim in or will the phone ask me when I put the sim in if I want to reset it?
Which IMEI is best to use with 272, does it make a difference?
Thanks for the suggestion

It should prompt you, but you can also try resetting in the recovery menu. I have always used IMEI 1 with 272
Worked for me!!!

WORKED PERFECTLY on my S10!!!
Changed CSC code from ZTO (Brazil retail) to ZVV (Vivo) after flash CHT firmware (from Chile).
I don't know why, but 4g+ from my operator (Oi - Brazil) doesn't work on ZTO -- br retail (it gets only 4g), but in CHT/ZVV it works 4g+ flawlessly!!! Despite Vivo's logo, I'm so happy!

Once you flash a Multi-CSC and your active SIM is within the said list then it would restart and make the changes.
So if you want to move to a different CSC then just use a different SIM that has the specific you need.
