Hey guys quick question can I run any Canadian firmware for my note 5. I've got a sprint n920p note 5 that i purchased as a refurb and I'm looking to run fido Canadian firmware so I can get access to all my fido options. Is it possible to run Canadian firmware for the note 5 on the American sprint n920p note 5.
Thank you
Jeff

Hello Everyone.
I Have a Galaxy Note 8 SM-N9500 (Hongkong) 256gb model running on snapdragon 835. The CSC for other countries are not available in samfirware for this very model.
Can i install csc from SM-N950F running exynos having multiple CSC. Or and other us based rom like SM-N950U1 running on snapdragon?
Thank You in advance.
You should be able to install other Snapdragon-based Note 8 ROMs, but I'm not 100% sure if the hardware is all identical between the 9500 and the 950U. CSCs are not device-specific or hardware-specific so you can technically use one from really any recent model of Touchwiz-based Samsung phone.
Hey guys,
I bought the 256GB factory unlocked emperor edition Note 8 from South Korea, but it is still tied to all of SK Telecom's (SKC region code) services, I want to switch it to my local Canadian carrier's CSC, Fido (FMC), without rooting. How do I go about accomplishing this?
Thanks in advance.
Can't. It only has the 3 main South Korean carriers CSC loaded, SK Telecom, kt Olleh, and LG U+. You can use the stock CSC app to switch between those 3 but it will wipe the phone when you switch that way.
Because the CSCs are on the /system partition there is no way to change them to have different/extra providers than what are possible on a given device without root. Since the N950N is only in South Korea, there are no stock Odin-flashable firmwares for it other than South Korean firmware from each of those providers. N950F is released in many countries around the world, so they have more options since Odin will let them flash any N950F firmware from any provider/country since the model is exactly the same, but there are no other options for N variants.

Thanks for the clarification. I just checked Updato for the list of providers the SM-N950F supports, and it appears there's still no Canadian CSC variant out of the 500+ available:

So, rooting seems to be the only option for getting a 256GB Eyxnos Note 8 to work with Carriers here in Canada, oh well....
Is there a 256GB variant of the SM-N950F? Or is this SM-N950FD variant also compatible with all them SM-N950F CSCs?

Yeah there won't be a Canadian CSC for an F variant because the Canadian variant is W I believe.
I have not seen a 256gb F/FD variant, but as far as i understand they are the same model as far as Odin is concerned. I have seen posts of a Hong Kong model that is 256gb but I think it is a 9500 which is Snapdragon, and the only other 256gb model is my N950N Korean variant (which is Exynos, and happens to be identical hardware to the F variant which is handy for ROM use).
How can I root and change my N950N CSC to the Chinese version which is CHC.

You can't use VoLTE on N960W in India.
VoLTE requires Indian CSC which is only available on N960F (Exynos).
N960W (Snapdragon 845) is intended for Canada only.

No, you can't use VoLTE on any Indian carrier.
You can however make voice calls using 3G and use LTE for data only.
Hello, I've bought G781B/DS. I think it's the UAE version (Snapdragon, dual sim). Should I only flash G781B fws? Is there any international version?

im unaware of the existence of an international version, but on all previous galaxy models with different carrier versions, all snapdragon firmwares were cross compatible with all snapdragon equipped phones. I had a UAE market A8 and i flashed the Spain, France, Germany and Canadian versions on it.
