[Q] Is my SGS rooted?

I bought SGS that was unlocked from orange (UK) then sold in another country (mine)...
1. Does unlocking procedure include rooting?
2. Is this prohibits me from getting official update through Kies?
A simple yes/no will do, although if u answer no plz help me out and explain
(had a hd2 before this one, did some rom flashing.., never did unlocking though)

Unlocked and rooted are two different things and neither should affect kies offering an update.
Sent from my GT-I9003 using XDA App

hopr this helps!!

1.No..(flash via odin to some unlocked firmware)
2.It depends..(ie) if for the previous problem, you flash a firmware not from your region then no your kies wont be able to give you an official update.. so download a region specific firmware( for ex dd means india, dx means singapore. find ur region code). Instead of this i'd suggest you to go to samfirmware.com and get the best rom.

thank you for replies
i found out my firmware is I9000XWJV1 which could also be found in official sources, so i supose it should be available for me to use official updates...
still is there a way for me to know if the phone is with stock/retail firmware or its rooted with a rom thats just almost as stock?
sry if i may sound silly at any point, im new to samsung rooting and stuff

kies says:
"This version of your device cannot be updated.
Current firmware version DA:JV1 / PHONE:JVE?CSC:J
Can you tell me if it means i wont get updates ever, or just couse now its not available?

Nevermind, i found uot myself.. google almighty =)

[Q] Question about Sammobile's firmwares?

So, my baseband version is I9305XXBLL5, and I'm on Portugal's Vodafone. I'm planning on rooting my phone so I can unlock it, but I gotta make sure I can return it to factory status (unrooted/locked) just in case I need to, for warranty purposes.
In SamMobile, there are 3 different firmwares with the same baseband version: one for Germany (Vodafone), one for Croatia (T-Mobile), and one for Switzerland (Swisscom).
Once I need to flash one of these to restore it to factory settings, can I just flash any, as long as they have the same baseband version? Or does it need to be the same carrier/country? If so, where can I find one for my carrier/country?

Baseband is nothing. What you need is a firmware with the correct CSC.

Where can I find my CSC? And also, after rooting and unlocking, wont I lose all the Vodafone apps? If so, if I flash a firmware with the same CSC (whatever that is) but different carrier, wont it come with that other carrier's apps?

CSC is the sales code three letters found on the box as the last three letters in the ART code and if I'm correct it should be TCL.
And the CSC contains the operator apps (normally in the hidden partition). So only if you change that ROM to another CSC you will lose operator apps.

Ohhh I see. Finally, someone that can explain things right to me.
Would it be too much to ask for you to help me backup the phone, root and unlock it? There are so many different ways, and some count for the flash counter or something like that, some don't, I don't know which one to use.
I just needed to SIM-unlock my phone, and know how to return it back to its original state if I need to, I don't want to install any custom ROMS or anything besides unlocking it. And I really needed it today

If you do a simple search you find all the answers right here. To unlock you need a 4.1.1 firmware but read here this does not need root afaik.

Android 4.4.4 german can be used in different countries

The german edition of the 4.4.4 rom for i9305 lte can also be used for different european edition. Flashed it on my dutch unbranded i9305 and it worked perfectly. It even boote up in my original language.
Just a notice to other people.

also working in slovenia. Not sure if ****ty signal or it keeps disconnecting from network. Probably poor signal

also working in Romania...4G also works....flashed it and no personal data or setting we're modified.

The German rom has custom apps inside or is it free of non Samsung bloatwere? How's the rom? Better than 4.3 any issue?

Also works in Portugal [emoji106]

it also works way down here in Malaysia.

Yes

No. It's official rom. Only customs trigger.

i dont get it. if is an official samsung release why would that raise the flag. I've seen different opinions. some said that if is official the knox will stay 0x0.

OT Records Knox 0x0 or 0x1 indicates new bootloader, when you have old, you haven't any records about Knox. When you have 0x1 you are warranty off
Click to expand...

ok. now i'm confused. if knox indicates new bootloader means that even if i update OTA the knox will be triggered. i mean kitkat 4.4.4 has a new bootloader. i think i'm getting it wrong.

I'm only interesting of your 1st question "If i flash the 4.4.4 german rom via Odin will knox be triggered to 0x1?" Because my brotheratlow flashed via Odin 4.3 on 4.1.2, an got new bootloader and told me got Flag 0x1 - warranty off. So I asked above "are you sure? @Rivalen1"
Additional information about knox and bootloaders:
- if you ever flash 4.3 or 4.4 via Odin or updated from OTA you have new Bootloader.
- if you bought your device and you dont know what bootloader you have, turn off your phone,reboot to download mode (hold power + volume down +home buttons) and when is there Knox flag 0x1 you have new and you are warranty off. When Knox flag is there 0x0 you have also new bootloader, but you are still in warranty and when you'll flash any custom recovery, you'll have then Knox 0x1 and you will be warranty off - so it's on your deciding. When isn't in download mode any records about about Knox, you still have old bootloader (btw congratulation ) and don't ever flash via Odin 4.3 and higher firmware - it's a pity.
Edit: now I'm reading here, that is true when it's official firmware via Odin, then knox warranty will stay on 0x0
Can somebody also confirm this?

"This is an official operation as Odin will be used for flashing the stock Android OS. Odin is a program developed by Samsung and used especially on update types of procedures. Also, Odin works only with Samsung branded devices. Thus, the warranty of your Galaxy S3 4G will not get void by applying the XXUFNI3 Android firmware. " This is what android geeks is saying.

Will you try it? If yes, leave here pls feedback . Thank you

original firmware downloaded from samsung(http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/) will NOT trigger knox. so happy flashing

@spiderman07 have you noticed bugs ? a general opinion compared to 4.3 pls.

So are you having any problems? You can use different PDA(rom) and CSC(sales code) as long as they are from the same android version. It shouldn't matter otherwise. The baseband version will affect your reception and is region specific(ie. What may work well in one region may not work so well in another) If you want stock samsung firmware, the version you install will replace the PDA, CSC and baseband that you have now.

hey thnx for the reply ..
ahan i see ok hmm i sought of got u but still the doubt remains the same which regions firmware should i download now?
My baseband and IMEI denote germany (unlike my CSC which denotes ireland) so should i download the kikkat version for germany or ireland? i reside in UAE so getting firmware of Germany/ireland that wouldnt be an issue ryt?( as i already mentioned the firmware presently in the phone isnt of UAE either n is either of germany or ireland ... so i know geting of a new firmware of these countries shouldnt ceate an issue bt just want to be on the safe side so i am asking u)

So I'm assuming you really want official firmware. I would suggest a custom rom but it's your choice. I don't think installing 4.4.4 official firmware will be a problem, only with the baseband as I mentioned earlier might be a bit hit or miss as it will be chosen for the region where it was released. Also once you install 4.4.4 I'm pretty sure you won't be able to go back to 4.3. The only thing I can suggest if you are certain you want official is try one, then if you face any reception problems or excessive battery drain or something try another one. You are not limited to Germany/Ireland either: By flashing the firmware you download, you replace the PDA, CSC and baseband.

Firstly ya i want the official one coz want to get back my warranty.i know i can unroot to get the warranty back but still i rooted it for being able to get the official fimware on my wish .. but i will surely check with the baseband thing n confirm whether the one i choose will work well i m my region(ie UAE) or not as u said its region specific( that is what u want me to do ryt before proceeding with a baseband Just being sure ..its my first time so want to be clear mate
The question of not being able to go back to 4.3 has confused me like i was willing to back up my current rom so anything as u mentioned arises, i would easily downgrade ! ?
Lastly i am downloading the offical kikkat (from samsung updates.com) so should i back my efs folder and imei as well?any help with that would be gr8

As I've mentioned before when you flash the firmware, everything is included such as baseband
Regarding downgrade from 4.4.4 to 4.3, I have read reports saying the bootloader won't allow you to install 4.3 as it is not compatible, but I'm not sure, I've never tried it. Just google and read as much as you can if this is important(being able to downgrade)
Always have a backup of efs folder on your pc. This contains important stuff such as imei.

Hi, I have a question. Recently my phone was updated to latest software 7.1 however i wish to return to marshmallow. This firmware that u have available, will it work for my country Trinidad and Tobago? What are the implications for installing a firmware not meant for your country? Also just for confirmation. The firmware software that I am finding does not match my PDA and CSC number.. Will this be a problem?

Question If i remove my sim card and do a factory reset and insert another country's sim card will my phone csc changed to that country's csc?

If i remove my sim card and do a factory reset and insert another country's sim card will my phone csc changed to that country's csc? Because by flashing with odin it doesn't change the CSC

if u are living in india and u use german sim card than ur csc changed to DBT and receive OTA from germany .
WE CANT CHANGE CSC IF WE USE SAME SIM CARD FROM THE REGION WE LIVING.
ONLY VIA SAMKEY THAT NOT ALLOWED AFTER AUGUST PATCH FOR S21 ULTRA.

As i said, that didn't even work for me on my Note 9 with Android 10, apparently it worked up to Android 9, but i am not sure about that either.
If i recall correctly, the only time when someone can change the CSC is within a country from Branded (Vodafone i.e.,) to Unbranded, and yet again i am not sure.
I know for a fact that you cannot just CHANGE THE CSC anymore. Not with SIM, not with Odin and not with the dialer codes. If you are on January/February firmware, i think you can still use the dialer code, but you cannot downgrade anymore due to the bootloader incrementation.
Currently your only bet is SamKey, i used it like the other user did too. It's a highly unfair method from a dev that sought the opportunity to make some money. And you need to be on May firmware for that, but luckily you can downgrade as May uses the same bootloader as the latest October build, and that may change very soon.

@emirefek offered you something above. For changing CSC with SamKey, you actually need just 1 credit. The dev does not sell anything under 45 if i recall correctly. On ebay however, people resell 15 of them in one package. It's infuriating but hey, it's the only solution out there.
I did mine from a friend, where he made me share my USB port over the internet. Forgot the damn name of the app but it was mindblowing that something like that exists.

Simple answer. No. But XSP and XME are in the same multi-csc group OXM so you can change by doing the dialer thing. If you look at your software information you will see this line.
XSP/XSP,XSP/XSP/xxx
There 4 csc for phones from XSP. If your phone is directly from samsung ... its xsp but the opetators' phones have different csc.
Xxx will change according to the SIM. But I am not sure if it will allow your phone to OTA according to xxx. I suspect even if you xhange csc this line will be
XSP/XSP,XSP/XME/xxx
The easiest way is to download releases for CSC DBT and odin.

No. But DBT will have monthly updates so DBT will always be ahead of XSP so XSP OTA will be older than DBT.
So if your phone is following dbt releases, you will never ota... with xsp.

You will still get ota. If xsp ota is newer than what is in the phone. But if you keep flashing dbt, the xsp ota is never newer so ota not necessary
