change csc for galaxy note 5 - Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi guys i want change my csc code without root i tried by using odin but not working with me !

I have a duos N9208, carrier-locked. I also want to do the same. Can someone please answer the ff questions ?
1. How do I change the CSC without root or tripping knox?
2. Will I still get official updates once its successfully changed?
3. If I just flash directly a firmware from another country/region with the same model, will it trip the knox and can I still receive official updates?

Quick question about flashing stock ROM

I've got a Telstra-branded S8+ (code TEL according to Sammobile) and I want to flash regular unbranded firmware onto it but I'm a little confused by all this talk of CSCs and so on. Is it safe to download the Australia (XSA) firmware and simply flash the HOME_CSC file over the top of what's already there, or is there more to it than that? Do I need to worry about this tripping Knox/breaking Safetynet/disabling OTAs/etc?
I have had no issues with flashing XSA on my Singapore model Note 8. As long as it is the official firmware this will not trip Knox.
Though your original CSC will appear in the Software Information as the third CSC. Mine currently shows XSA/XSA/XSP (XSP is Singapore)

Samsung Galaxy Note8 N950N to N950F

I bought a Korean version of Note8 N950N. I am having some problems using it in Bangladesh. For example, I can't turn off camera sound, Bixby search results in Korean language etc. Now I want flash N950F Rom. Is it possible to flash N950N to N950F without tripping Knox ? if yes, then how ?
Thanks in advance.
I think you can change CSC to Bangladesh CSC but you need Root your phone and that will trip knox.

not sure if we can simply flash another region stock rom over another.
As long as its same CPU class

I don't care about Samsung pay or health. But I need secure folder and OTA update. That's why I do not want to root/trip knox. Any other method will be very much appreciated. I tried using odin. Though both of the device have same hardware, but it doesn't allow me to do so.
One of the reasons why N950F firmware won't work on our N950N model is because of the PIT (Partition Information Table).
PIT is unique to a specific model number and storage capacity. So if you try installing N950F firmware, the information contained within that PIT doesn't correspond with what the N950N is expecting and will fail.

Can I flash UK firmware to remove international firmware without tripping Knox?

I am considering purchasing the Note 9 but it is an international variant. I was just wondering if there is a way to flash the UK firmware onto the phone without tripping Knox. The Note 9 is a SM-960F/DS I want to flash a SM-960F firmware onto the phone. Is this possible?
You can but It will always remain as DS which stands for Dual SIM
Check here for more and detailed info

The firmware for SM-N960F is the same for SM-N960F/DS!
Dial *#1234# in dialer and look at the CSC line.
If it reads N960FOXM.... then you're on the multi-CSC OXM, if not then you're on a Carrier csc and to go to the OXM csc you'll need to do a factory reset and flash the oxm CSC firmware of your choice.
Check sammobile.com for SM-N960F and look for csc - N960FOXM....
It shouldn't trip knox since your flashing Samsung approved firmwares but there might be a very small, I mean very small, chance that it might. (If done correctly it should go without an issue with knox. Just given a little warning so take it with a grain of salt.)

One thing to add, when flashing and to ensure you are getting UK settings and so on is you must be having UK SIM cards in both slots when the mobile is restarting after the Odin flashing.
Else you will stay on the international setup

Odin flash UAE firmware

Hello everyone
I have a question and yes i searched the web
My phone has OJM CSC and MID Region i want to flash UAE android 11 firmware (its OJM) and change the region back MID i wanted to know if i can still get OTA and if there will be any problems like knox
Thank you in advance and i have downloaded the firmware using frija
A715F
And which files should i flash in odin? Sorry its my first samsung phone
If i understood your question correctly then you can surely do that! Before anything make sure to backup your files because some times changing the CSC wont work and it will corrupt all your data. First you need the OJM region firmware and MID firmware after installing OJM using odin BL+AP+CP and CSC use HOME_CSC if you want to keep your precious files! After installing OJM put your phone in download mode and flash just the MID CSC and that should do the trick! Note that you will get OTA updates from the MID region and if you update using OTA it will change your AP BL etc there will not be any problems with knox just if you decide to root. If this helped you make sure to like my response!

Question S21 Ultra CSC&Firmware - Region Change

Hi. I'm planning to buy S21 Ultra 5G at my trip. It is cheaper in there then my own country. I'm lucky, there and here using both Exynos SoC.
I was away from Samsung for a long time, as I remember Samsung was locking devices with CSC and Region based firmwares. That time Samsung Knox was not that expanded, as I see now it controls all system and builded top of it. I talked a bit now let me ask my question.
Is changing CSC blocks OTA? Or changing all firmware blocking OTA? I think odin is still around, Is using ODIN tripping Knox or blocking OTA? As I see Knox have 2 different fuse; one of them trips from custom firmwares&root other one trips from Odin with official firmware. Is that true? Actually my main question is, am I able to keep Knox untouched and OTAble after changing region.
Edit: It's not carrier locked.
Thank you.
csc transfer will not be blocked OTA if you transfer using samkey.
the use of odin for flash firmware does not trigger knox it is the custom recovery installation or root that triggers it.
Changing csc does not block OTA if you have not made any software modification (root & twrp).
Thank you for this post. Actually i have and exynos model too non carrier locked. My phone originally come in XSP firmware and service software provider is XSP too.. i have tried flashing XME firmware however that did not change my service software provider it's staying the same. I used odin to flash with.
