Stock Firmware? - Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I'm unsure of which firmware to flash. None of the current kernels for the note 5 work as they should so I want to go back to 100% stock. I've attached the software info to the post.

Use Samsung Smart Switch or browse to your CSC folder and look for your CSC code then use one of the websites that offer the ability to download firmware.

Where's the csc folder? I'm new to touchwiz

[Q] Restoring product Code

Does anyone know a proven method to restore my product code through the nv_data file in the efs folder? Like many who flashed to Froyo on here, My code is showing as HKKOR and should be back to stock HKOPS (Australia). Or any other way if possible.
If not, will I be able to update to the official Froyo through Kies when it's released?
If you are with Froyo, Flash multi CSC JP3 through ODIN and select your area will set your Product Code. It worked for me.
use root explorer and delete both your nv_data.bin and nv_data.bin.md5 files and reboot.
correct product codes will be recreated from your .bak files.
kies checks your product code before upgrading, but there are patcher programs to take care of that, if you want.
both topics have been discussed to death previously, I kindly suggest you do some search before posting next time.
That sounds like it might work. Do you have a link for that JP3 Rom? and does it have to be JP3.
I had just flashed back to a clean JG4 just need to restore that product code.
Sorry, I just see that you're from Australia requiring OPS csc file.
JP3 csc file will not include Australia.
You have to find a multi csc file that include your area code.
Multi csc file ask to choose area amongst several, then when choosing correct area it set this area into the product code.
Hey guys, please, i have one btw question:
I have unbranded and unlocked product code I9000HKDDBT (Debitel,Germany), but i want put firmware XFJP7 with Multi CSC XXJP7 wich have Croatian APN settings...Can I make this without any dangerous ? At this moment im on firmware in my signature wich is not for my prod.code too, but fw work like a charm, and with staying my original product code in nv_data.bin without restoring (original from stock firmware).
Or: Can I put only Multi CSC XXJP7 with Odin (without PDA and MODEM files) on my presents (XWJP6) firmware?
P.S. What i must care, i will not to stay without Download and Recovery Mods (3-comb buttons) ?
Forwarding thanks on answer
Regards

[Guide] Changing CSC Galaxy Tab 10.1

Hi guy,
till Apple fights against Samsung the Galaxy Tab 10.1 is not longer availe in Germany. We can oder EU-models but the CSC and region code isn't "DBT" to get right special apps.
So I started to solve the problem by myself. Lot's of result bei google doesn't work for me, so here are the steps I do to get right product code (also shown in KIES )
Before anything, I hope you have an /efs folder backup.
1) Root your device (how-to you can find here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1239185 thanks djR3Z)
2) Download your CSC you would like to have from this post (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=787163 thanks bloodrider)
3) Install RootExplorer from market to copy the CSC to /system/csc
4) Download TerminalEmulator from the market and install
5) Start TerminalEmulator and use the code from bloodrider (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=787163)
6) At this point you will get a list of all CSC also the one you added before. After that system will reboot an install.
7) After reboot connect you tablet to KIES an show which product code Kies get
Next step for me I flash an older firmware connected to KIES again an update to new version without get lost the new region code.
Do everything on your own risk, for me it works great.
You could also just download CSC Changer for Galaxy S from the Market.
Two clicks and you're done.
If the CSC is already there that could also be a solution, otherwise not
Use US bought Galaxy Tab in Germany
I have another question (sorry if this has been addressed somewhere already):
- A friend wants me to bring him the US WIFI version to Germany. In case of a warranty issue is it covered or is the are Samsung Europe group that would support it (cause its not sold in Germany?)
thanks a lot
Anyone with a nordic galaxy tab 10.1 3g from Telia that can tell me their original CSC? I can't seem to find the right on for that.

That is true but do you know what the CSC actually includes?
I don't think using the CSC from a different device is a good idea.
1. You would change the CSC Version to "I9000OXAJM1".
2. You would flash a different SW_configuration.xml
3. You would flash a different others.xml
Doesnt seem to work either. I still get "this blah blah blah" in kies.
XEE for nordic countries and KG7 version (I know the local on in the stores had this)
Figured it out. To get stock on your nordic GT7500 from Telia do:
1. Get the KG9 firmware from samfirmware.com
2. Flash it
3. Down load the scs switcher from the market, just do a search for samsung scs. Or click
4. Change CSC to NSE
5. Done - you can update to KI1 over kies.

Sent you a PM.
Maybe someone else would like to know the answer my question, Did you still have root and CWM after flashing stock rom, and isent the local SCS nee for denmark ?
Thought I answered it?
Anyway, yes you'll lose root, but it takes 1 min to get it back. After kies is done. Go into download mode and flash clockwork recovery from Odin. Then just push root from there, works like a charm. You can find the root flash thread somewhere in this forum. Pm if you need morehelp then that.
About csc, I thought NEE was Danish as well, but Kies refuses to accept that csc. You'll get some Swedish bloat ware after flashing. Easily removed by root explorer or titanium backup.

The changing of CSC is only temporary because after flashing a new firmware, maybe from europe, you will get the original CSC from the image

Nobody said its not temporary, so whats your point?
Is it possible to change my CSC code on my Galaxy Tab 10.1 3G from NSE to NEE?
I would like to get the nordic firmware for my tab rather than the Telia one, because Telia has a lot of stupid programs with the firmware I can't use, or would like to use.
Thanks for the guide. I can't find the CSC for Hong Kong, anyone know?

Yes, you can. But you'll need Root and the CSC application from the market. If that fails, just follow what I did on the main page and pick NEE afterwards, then it should update to 3.2 OTA.

[Q] Flashing stock firmware with open CSC

Hello,
I just wanted to ask one thing about flashing the Samsung Galaxy Note stock firmware. I'm currently completely stock, never rooted, never flashed, the firmware is the Android 2.3.6 LA6, on the TOP CSC (Serbia, Telenor). Since I really want to finally switch to ICS, I've been planning to switch my CSC to CPW and get the OTA update for 4.0.3 XXLQ2.
Could someone tell me how to get the same LA6 firmware on my phone, but with all CSC's available, so I could switch back to TOP after updating? I wouldn't want any problems like the yellow triangle, not being able to have my phone recognized by Kies and such etc.
Any way to do it, or am I asking too much?
Don't be desperate, Wait for official ICS...
Or follow dr. Ketan's guide....
The thing is, ICS won't appear for my CSC in forever, so I just wanted to switch my CSC to something else and flash 4.0.3, then change the CSC back to my old one. I don't see any guide to do that in Dr. Ketan's, but there's only a list of all European firmwares. I don't know which CSC options they have

Press *#1234# on dialer and post your screen shot along with about phone in settings. More information will be good.
Here are the screenshots. Also, in Ketan's guide there is a bunch of STOCK firmwares. Is there a way to see which CSC options they have before downloading, or something?
I saw Open Europe firmware with the N7000OXALC1 CSC, any way to check which CSC's are in there?

So It is compatible with the G935T, my next question is if Flashing different carrier firmware effects the LTE bands you can access. does the SoC support all bands based on the ROM or is it a hardware change that effects them?
Thank you... these files just saved me from a brick...No idea what happened but I was stuck at the Samsung AT&T Galaxy S7 Edge screen and factory reset would not work
Any success with just flashing the CSC with the U firmware? I was able to get volte with a corrected xml file but curious if I can mix and match and get more of the atnt features.
worked flawlessly heading back to stock.
i was rooted with the 935U PG9 code - dont have to do anything special. follow steps in ODIN (i also hit the repartition checkbox) and you're back to stock.
if you want to remove the unlock icon on the start up screen, complete odin, let it boot up to welcome screen, then factory reset and it's back to like you bought it.
PLEASE HELP!!!!
I have been stuck at one of the early firmwares beause of a broken ota to my phone. I had just flashed this and i love it. The only problem is that the moment my phone booted up, i was greeted with a message saying, [ATTENTION The Fingerprint sensor is not responding. Try Again Later] Ive googled so much and none of the "fixes" workes. Before you ask, yes i have flashed stock, yes i factory reset, multiple times for both. Please help i want to use my fingerprint sensor again!!!!:crying:
Okay question?
I tried flashing the "U" variant back to a Tmobile G935T Rev 4 PI3 S7 Edge and it errors out halfway through the AP part. All other 3 files will flash though. Why can't I flash it back to the "U" firmware after the Att and Tmobile variants are on Rev 4? The G935U and G930U are both on Rev 4 now too. I'm curious why it won't let me flash that variant anymore. It's not a big deal but personally I think the "U" firmware runs the best out of all of them. If I get a Sprint S7 or S7 Edge I always unlock first then flash to the "U" firmware never to think about taking it back to Sprint firmware. Lol
Plus Sprint is the only one still on Rev 2 Bootloader. So can anyone tell me why the G935A or G935T won't flash back to G935U even though they are both on the same Rev 4?

They will. I've gone back from v4 At&t to v4 U. Something in your setup (phone, cable, pc, files, Odin version) is stopping you.
It's something in the AP checking while flashing it. Try going from G935U Rev 4 back to G935A and watch it error out. Lol
Can someone please help me? I have a g930a and need the PI2 files asap!

Looking for a guide to unroot/back to stock

So I had a botched situation caused by me when flashing a custom Rom (Rom/instructions is great, I went off the reservation myself) and had a soft brick.
I had decided at that point to just revert back to stock and not play around until things stabilize with Eng more. However, I couldn't.
The last stock referenced topic is with an outdated firmware and being 950U1 rather than just U. Downloading updated firmwares (or even attempting that one blindly) resulted in "Device dismatch".
I was then basically forced to (and successfully) go to SamPWN but that wasn't my initial intention.
Does anyone have an updated guide on how we can go back to stock without EngBoot, and specifically also states which CSC file is needed?

I'll give it a go, going to try to do it in an hour or so and see if it'll work with the PrinceC version.
Is there any chance (in your or anyone elses opinion) that the mismatch could be the result of the custom rom being based on U1 rather than just U?

You should be able to just completely reflash the stock TMB firmware with the modded Odin without an issue...am I understanding correctly that this did not work? Download the Prince Comsey modded Odin. It has a .ini file that you need to open w/ a text editor like notepad++, and edit UMS=0 to UMS=1 -this allows you to also flash the userdata file included in the TMB firmware, along w/ the normal BL, AP, CP & CSC.
Make sure you downloaded the correct firmware for the S8 (G950U), not S8+ (G955U).

Did this work? Can anyone confirm? If not, I'm going to try it this weekend and hopefully I'll remember to reply here with results.
