[Q] Flashing stock ROM doesn't change operator CSC... - Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help &

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

[Q] Stock XEU firmware

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.

S3 LTE I9305 kies not support udate problem help

Hi threre,my s3 lte i9305 was rooted but i installed the originla stock ee uk rom and reset the counter but kies still saying your device current firmware virsion not support update via kies..
i tried the change csc app but its not working and i cant find any option to change csc,it must got the original uk csc as i flashed the uk ee rom..
can you please help me to sort the problem.?
or any one got the diffrent csc files so i can try others..?
please help.
thanks
Did you try Factory reset? Reseting counter doesn't change your status. What is your Device Status? Normal or Modified? Also, you can dial *#1234# to check your CSC.
My CSC was changed to OPS or something after flashing Pandoriam Rom (made in Australia ). Few days ago I've came back to stock by using EE pre-rooted ROM from here. Now my CSC is EVR (BLL1 - EE UK)

Revert to carrier ROM

I flashed N950FXXU3BRA8_N950FOXM2BRA1_XEF ROM on my Galaxy Note 8 (Not Rooted) and i want to recover Wifi and VoLte calling offered by my carrier.
I do a clean flash of N950FXXU3BRA8_N950FOXJ2BQL1_SFR ROM and im not able to activate SFR CSC !
The active CSC is AME and even i have an SFR sim card impossible to activate SFR CSC .
The SFR rom contains theses CSC (AME, MEO, SFR) and AME is default CSC.
How to select the SFR CSC ? I tried the code *#272*IMEI Number* and this dont work.
PS: I was able to do this in the past with the same phone (i dont remember the procedure i've used 2 months ago) and i stuck now with this problem.

is oem unlock needed for changing csc v3 bootloader and oreo

I have done several searches re the above.
As stated in a previous post I want to change my phone back to tel/tel/tel from xsa/xsa /tel ( xsa is generic unbranded phone in australia and telstra is a branded in Australia phone )
I have no oem unlock available as it has not been 7 days since I have flashed my phone.
should it be possible to change the csc without oemunlock with olin_csc not home_csc ( and using the other associated firmware files bl,ap etc)
and picking f reset time, auto reboot and repartition in odin .
You're good, oem unlock is only needed for flashing custom binaries.
I'm curious, how did you get xsa/xsa/tel? I have been trying to achieve this but haven't had success.. I have flashed stock xsa rom with Odin with CSC and wiped everything and it's still tel/tel/tel. I even tried Optus software and it never changes..

I did the below with oreo firmware
flash xef french firmware and setup without simcard or sd card ( you will get xef/xef/tel) then flash xsa firmware
both times use csc not homecsc. you will get xsa/xsa/tel
I
but even though I tried to reverse the above with the telstra firmware instead of xsa after reflashing french to try to get back to telstra but it did not I still have xsa/xsa /tel. no biggy samsung pay volte and richtext messages work still . Just thought I might get back to branded for something to 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.
