Hi everyone,
I've purchased a Korean Galaxy Note 8 (SM-N950N) and rooted it with TWRP and SuperSu. Now I want to change CSC to Vietnam.
I already download 2 stock firmwares (Korean and Vietnamese).
Can you please guide me for next steps with Odin?
just go grab the S8 CSC changer and use that. All we have to do is add 1 line in one of it's scripts so that it will run on a device with 'greatlte' in the name.

Another user posted in one of the most recent pages exactly what needs to be edited for it to run on a Note 8. Super easy, takes 2 seconds to do, then you just zip it up again and flash/run it in TWRP.

It seems that this CSC Selection file did not work for me even I already updated the script file META-INF/com/google/android/updater-script with this code:
getprop("ro.product.device") == "greatlte" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "greatlte" || getprop("ro.product.name") == "greatlte" ||
When I flashed zip file I got error no digest file found
I have this problem could not find any specific answer so far. I'm from UK with an international Note 8 (N950F) unlocked and want to use it with THREE, especially from the wi-fi calling. So, downloaded THREE firmware and after extraction, I got CSC and HOME_CSC among others. First, through ODIN installed HOME_CSC after reboot could not notice any difference at all, the mobile seems the same so decided to install the CSC which obviously wipe the Note. The same, nothing different on the phone. Lastly, I installed everything (AP, BL, CP, CSC) only that way I got Wi-FI calling but also many apps from THREE ( Deezer, Three, Three likes, Ebay, Amazon Underground, Prime video, Amazon MDIP, Operator Settings) and a horrible start-up boot logo and so on. Despite I got Wi-Fi calling I got more stuff and I am not happy at all. Thinking seriously to go back to the international version I had. Does anyone know why after changing the CSC was not any difference in my Note?
Find attached two pictures, first one shows the wi-fi calling option under Contacts-Settings using THREE firmware, and the other one is from the UK international firmware where wi-fi calling option is not there.
Khoanb1, Kett_Traveler modified the S8 CSC Changer zip to work for the Note 8 but only added the USA CSC to it because that's what he needed. I've since took his zip and added the Canadian Multi-CSC (XAC) for myself and the European Multi-CSC (DBT) for you. The European Multi-CSC (DBT) contains the Vietnam CSC (XXV). Download the zip from MEGA here and install it with TWRP. When it asks you which CSC to install, choose DBT, then choose XXV in the next screen to select your Vietnam CSC. Make sure to select XXV and not keep it at the default of DBT at the 2nd menu.
I've successfully used this zip to change my CSC to the Canadian one. Note that after the CSC change, your phone will factory reset itself and wipe all your data (if I remember correctly). So make sure to backup externally first if needed. After a restart, your phone will boot up with the proper boot animation for your CSC and you'll have all your carrier-specific features. For me, changing my CSC allowed me to connect to LTE networks which was not possible before (I was limited to 4G speeds instead). Also, the Korean apps that came with the phone are preloaded onto our system partition, so you have to delete them from /system/apps or through Titanium Backup. You can also freeze them if you prefer.
Note: I haven't tested the install with the XXV CSC so test it and tell me if it works.

Hi peacey8,
Thank you very much for your effort and your thorough guidance. Your zipped file worked very well for my device and now I could have XXV CSC code in my Galaxy Note 8.
I can see some big changes:
1. boot logo is the same with Note 8 devices distributed in Vietnam
2. some apps were installed by default like these devices
3. Samsung Pay can recognise Vietnamese network providers (but I could not still use it because my device was rooted). If you have any idea about it, please let me know.
Great! I'm glad it worked. Unfortunately, Samsung Pay will not work because Knox was tripped. Android Pay still works though if you use Magisk root with Magisk Hide.
Right now there is no solution to Samsung Pay with root. In the future there could be some solution. I'm sure some creative person will come up with something eventually.

Hi peacey8,
Thank you for your explaination. I have another question:
What will happen if I flash all tar files in the Vietnamese stock firmware to my Korean Note 8?
Will I get the CSC code like devices distributed in Vietnam? And will Odin allow me to do this?

Honestly I'm not sure if it's impossible. I'll let someone more knowledgeable than me answer that question. However the Korean Note 8 and the Vietnamese Note 8 are both running on the Exynos SoC, so it might be possible to switch firmwares with a lot of hard work and many problems. For one, the devices have different storage capacities and so will have different PIT files (the file that determines which tar image file goes where and how big it should be). Another issue is the bootloader (the most basic, low-level software of the phone that talks to the hardware to start your phone up) is different for the Korean and European models, so you can't flash the Vietnamese BL file on the Korean model. It would brick the phone if you did.
So in short, no you can't flash a different firmware. But, why do you need to? What's wrong with the current solution of switching CSCs that you just did? Is there still a feature you are missing?

i've used a similar file for the S8+ and my phone rebooted with a new CSC and the message "Android is updgrading"... but it did not wipe my phone.

It's only a question because I'm so confused if I can totally convert my Korean device to Vietnamese one.
You are right, so dangerous to replace bootloader even I already created backup for all partitions.

Hi Khoanb1,
Luckily i found your thread up here, i'm a clueless Vietnamese when it come to rooting phone and other related things. I also bought an KR Galaxy Note 8 lately and have been wondered since then. Is there any other feature that missing on an KR note 8 to a distributed VN note 8?
Would you be so kind to instruct me install them just like you did? im a total noob here.
If you dont mind i can ask for your social media account so we can discuss further.

Hi lluvias91,
I already sent you a private message including my fb account, let's start our converstion about this topic
do you know guys if a packed Note 8 Eng Boot for Exynos variant (SM-N950F) is available ?
tengo el inconveniente con el n950F Exynos sin interruptor de desbloqueo OEM Ayuda
I have the N950F Exynos phone and want to flash the US Mobile CSC to get Wi-Fi calling. I don't have root and am in jail with the no oem unlock issue. I was wondering if I could just flash the CSC from the complete N950U firmware using ODIN. Or can you not mix the F firmware files with the U versions?
I saw the zip file to do the same but it requires root and TWRP to flash.
Not sure I like this phone being locked down. Very frustrating not being able to just root and install a working ROM without having to wait 7 days!
Thanks
In download mode. My carrier id is blank. How do i add the id back?
Hi guys
I buy mine in Morocco N950F Dual Sim (Exact version : SM-N950FZDDMWD).
My phone are not rooted and i dont want to do it for the moment. dont want to increment the knox
I need the french CSC. If i downlaod a french stock firmware N950F and install it with Odin.
It will work without loosing my garante and continue to use samsung Pay ?
Sorry for my bad english
thanks in advance
Hi All, I really need some help. First post. I bought a Samsung Galaxy Note 8 SM-N950F/DualSim from eBay in mint condition for £285 a few months back. Works perfectly. Waited until end of March but no Android 9 One UI update. Realised I hadn't got ANY updates what so ever since I got it. Contacted Samsung and they say because it is from a different region it can't be updated in the UK. I find this extremely unfair. I use a Blackberry Key2 as my main phone and Note 8 as a second phone which I don't always carry. Use it more to surf and watch videos with once I get home.
I have never rooted or Odined or anything else before so am not too excited about any of that stuff. I just need the simplest tutorial there is to get my phone to update and to continue to update if that is possible. I am currently on Android Oreo 8.0 and security patch August 2018!
Thanks in advance for your help.
P.S I have no idea which region it's from but the serial number is R58J944Z7HT

Dial *#1234# in phone dialer. Look at the CSC line and look for "OXM" in the line eg. N950F"OXM"5CSA2. If you see that then:
Read page 1:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-8/how-to/official-stock-firmware-update-odin-t3677072
To find your CSC:
You can go to system settings/ about phone/software information/ service providers SW ver. (Look for something like this example TPA/TPA/XEU , should be last line in that section. Yours might be different but it should be in this format CSC/CSC/CSC .)
2nd spot TPA is the your carrier CSC (set by your sim card.)
3rd Spot XEU is where your phone is from.
So look at the second spot for your CSC code.
So know you have the:
Model of note 8 : SM-N950F or SM-N950F/DS (doesn't matter firmware is for both phones.)
The multi-CSC firmware OXM
And your CSC code.
Now you have 3 choices:
1) Connect phone to PC and use smart switch to update phone (if there is one for your csc). This will keep data intacted!
2) You can use samfirm.exe on PC to download the firmware for your model phone and CSC and use the latest Odin to update.
Use "Home-CSC" file to keep data intacted!
Warning DO NOT use "csc" file this DELETE DATA! (Or you
want to delete data.)
3) Use samfirm.exe to download the firmware for any CSC that's in that multi-CSC OXM that's listed in that thread I posted and latest Odin.
Use "Home-CSC" file to keep data intacted! This will keep
your CSC the same!
Warning DO NOT use "csc" file this DELETE DATA! (Or you
want to delete data.)
Now you might need to Odin everytime the new update or you might be lucky and you'll get the OTA.
I have the N950F in Canada and I get OTA update here, maybe because my 3 csc code is XEU/XEU/XEU(your will be different! )(because the multi-CSC oxm doesn't support my carrier csc so it stays default XEU/XEU/XEU. )
Your case maybe different so I would get used to using Samfirm.exe and Odin to update your phone.
Or you can always wait and see if you get the OTA, your choice!
If you don't have the OXM or do you can go to
https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-note8/SM-N950F/
To look what country the CSC belongs to (CSC in this case is the 3rd spot in this eg. XEU/XEU/XEU)
Eg XEU is UK/Ireland
XSG is United Arab Emirates
Hi,
I had exactly the same issue; bought a Note 8 on ebay last year (also in mint condition) - it's a Dual SIM model also. But mine had not had a security update since March 2018. Like you I contacted Samsung support and was told that there isn't anything they can do. One suggestion was to send the phone to its country of origin so that it can pick up security updates OTA - not really an option for me...
I bit the bullet today and followed the procedure set out by BluePhnx. The whole process took about 1 hour. I was taking my time because I have never attempted anything similar before. Everything worked great and I now have Android Pie with Samsung One UI More importantly the security version is March 2019. All my apps and data are intact and S-Pen continues to work great.
Thanks BluePhnx for the guide.
Best,
TB

+1 using cho firmware
guys just use samfirm tool 0.3.6 on your PC to check for the update. no need to ask or post if its out or not:
enter as device model:
SM-960N
And Region: dosent really matter but u can choose the carrier that the device is from:
LUC
KOO input this one if unsure
SKC
KTC
or choose the one with the latest fimrware/date code
(but rightnow only May is available)
check regularly as the app seems to connect to samsung servers so it will be the first place for the firmware to pop up.( and download speeds are fast. way faster than sammobile free or other crapy sites.)
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...g-firmware-t2988647/post57842725#post57842725
to dl the tool on the post link above , skip the part where it says depreciated and dl it from attached OP post. read up though on the windows ( MS redist) dependencies to run it.
downloaded firmware is flashable once extracted using odin 3.13.3 from here:
https://dl2018.sammobile.com/Odin3-v3.13.3.zip
this required to see phone com port with odin
samsung usb drivers:
https://drivers.softpedia.com/get/M...ver-for-Mobile-Phones-1-5-65-0.shtml#download
put phone into download mode:
(make sure your device is off before doing anything.) hold the following button combo: VOLUME DOWN + BIXBY and plug usb cable from PC to phone then release button when you see DL mode and press vol up to accept to enter it.
in odin:
to not reset/wipe data fill in all slots with unziped md5's from file downloaded with samfirm: BL, AP, CP AND CSC (use ONLY these 4 corresponding files*)
(* For csc: home_csc.md5 is to not loose data and regular *csc.md5 will wipe clean.) (userdat.md5 is korean bloat, skip it not needed if you are not on korean sim carrier)
if you are on a custom rom(rooted device) and just want to update bootlaoder and modem to latest, then flash only ;
BL.md5 and CP.md5 in the according slots.
flashing official firmware and components like this dosent trip knox or voids warranty so its all safe.
edited for links to the tools needed and some clarifications.

try to install the KOO firmware. i believe it is the "unbranded" firmware for korean n960n devices.
be careful of personal data if you try. using the method described above to flash with odin.( the part when using csc.md5 file because i might wipe data from phone. but it might also remove bootlogo and more bloatware apps from korea)

This is my buildnumber N960NKSU2CSE3 this for baseband N960NKOU2CSD2 if i download KOO firmware
which one should I choose? Buildnumber or base band?
Btw i got firmware KOO but unziped file i get 6 fil, AP, BL, CP, CSC, HOME CSC, and USER Data how i must input User Data File to?
I'm in Korea too, using an unbranded KOO N960N (exynos). It seems like the update is unavailable in this region. I left a question on the Samsung Members forum, and it seems like they're saying the night sight camera mode had some pretty large bugs, so they have to fix that. Also, the night sight camera update was just released for the S9 series, so hopefully it shouldn't be long before we can get it for the Note 9.
[edit]
Also, checking the latest firmware for N960N in SAMFIRM results in the same firmware, an outdated May 2019 version withOUT night sight camera. Looks like we will have to await the official release ...
This sucks because my Mate 20 Pro takes absolutely stunning pics at night.

all required information was posted in my big post. please read it and follow it correctly to get your answers.
moreover you might need to install samsung android drivers. you can search for them on xda or you can install samsung smart switch. it has the drivers built in. the software is useless it is only being installed for the driver package.

No carrier logo on KOO, but the phones are more expensive. No bloatware whatsoever.
BTW, we just got night mode a day or two ago.
The night mode is still 2 or 3 generations technologywise behind the Mate 20 Pro, Im gonna have to sell my device so if anyone in KR wants to buy it, leave me a PM.
Its in pristine condition with 6 cases

Hello any solution to change csc on s21 ultra? Samkey not work
it seems there is no way curently
I did this method and it worked https://androidmore.com/change-csc-samsung/
I have a s21 ultra exynos , and a unlock phone , global version
I installed the AUT update via odin and the csc was TPA , so i did the method on the link to change to AUT and it worked but it deleted everything
but what about Carrier blotware?

Which step on the link did you exactly do? There are many options.
Any update on this? I have S21 Ultra with TPA and I want to change the CSC to BTU. I am in Canada and I hope this will help with faster updates. Also I am having problems with slow 4G uploads, and faster updates might be the solution.
Thank you..

If your device is SD then you won't be able to get BTU.
If it is exynos then you can flash the BTU firmware.
Your 4g speeds may be slow if you do not have the correct csc files for your provider. Eg: having BTU for Rogers may not get your the speeds you are looking for.

Thank you.

i dont have volte in my country , no 5g in my country , no google pay in my country , no samsung pay in my country , no PayPal in my country , no paid app or watchface appears in galaxy store in my country , bad bad bad .
I used the link in this tread and I selected BTU, but I did not pay attention that it was mentioned that is Single. Now I have BTU, but I have some problems receiving SMS and I cannot go back to TPA. When I try *#272* IMEI# it does not do anything. Any idea what I have to do to go back to Dual SIM?

You will not be able flash Canadian CSC on an exynos device.
First you have to root the device and Either you or some else will have to edit the canadian csc file to make it compatible wtih exynos.
Some one has done for me in the past with note 8 but that dev is no longer in XDA.
The other option is to root and then copy the required csc files.
With this there is a high chance that the imeir related files can get corrupted.

You can flash any other file with multicsc.
There is no reason for you not recieve sms with BTU csc. However, if it does happen fhe csc firmware that is the original one. i.e look at the third tri letter in the csc info.(this third letter never changes , more like hard coded)
I do get SMSs but, I was not able to get one from my bank. The 3rd 3 letters are still TPA. I do not know if it is normal, but the dual sim menu has much fewer options. I can choose from what sim to call only after I dial at least one digit. And When I try to activate Dual sim always on, the toggle still stays off.
For the Canadian CSC, I suspected that it will be impossible to flash. I used to be on TPA and now I am on BTU, I had problems slow upload speed on 4G. Now is a bit better, but the download is staying around 50-75. before I had 160-300 Mbps.
Where I can get Multicsc and do I have to root the phone?
Thank you.

Rooting won't help you much with signal or speed of data, unless you have to flash some modified csc files.
Your problem could also be the absence of the required bands,whuch may be lacking in exynos.
I have a SD version ( decided to go wtih non root this time as most of the things that need root can be done with adb anyways. Also there is root for SD too these days) so cannot help you much.

I am missing only one band, and this is not a problem. B29 in LTE. Al the rest are there. My question was more like is it normally to loose t some fucntciuts of Dual sim manager and and is there an easy way to change back and forth CSC without rooting. I do not want to root. Thank. you

Chainging csc is easy by flashing the CSC file. Rooting won't affect it. Rooting has its downsides.
Your loss of dual sim fn could be related to csc but BTU should support full dual sim fn.
I have recently moved From India to France. Unfortunately I can't seem to add my cards here since Samsung Pay only accepts cards from India. I created a new Samsung account in France but that didn't seem to make any difference.
Is there any way I can change the location for my Samsung Pay for it to work here? I read somewhere that I need to change my CSC region or something? Do I have to download the France firmware to do that or is there another way? Worried I might mess up my phone if I mess with it haha. I tried factory resetting it with my French sim but it didn't make any difference? Is it possible to do it like that/ did I miss a step or something or is flashing firmware the only way to go about this? Would appreciate any and all suggestions and tips so i don't break my phone haha as I'd like to keep it functioning and under warranty.
Also if i need to flash a new firmware,
1. Do i download the France(XEF) firmware or France(SFR) firmware(since the sim card i bought here is Red by SFR).
2. Is the PDA id basically the build number of my phone? since I'd need to download that specific firmware i think.
Sorry for the stupid questions. Would appreciate all the help I can get as I've never done this before.

Flash the SFR Firmware if that's your current service provider.

My AP ends with AUJ7
im guessing i need to match that to the PDA of the firmware im downloading?
for SFR there is no such PDA that ends with AUJ7 but in the XEF version there is. Does that mean i can only download the XEF version?

Hi
Flash a firmware from Europe , so you have available a french CSC
Then You need to change your active CSC to one from France , at the moment (without root) you have to use a pay service (samkey) , after that you can use you french account for samsung pay and add credit cards from that country
