I get the same error but I have no issues with the phone.
I'm running the INS firmware with the original csc XEU.
I wouldn't be worried about it unless it's giving you problems.
If you want to go back to your original csc firmware later on you can check to see if the error is there or not.

The reason behind that is probably because you install the update over the original OS on your device. Back up your data and perform a Hard Factory reset but wipe the Cache Partition and everything should be fine.

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)

use the CSC file and not the HOME_CSC.
Note this will wipe your phone
I made it..the csc no the home_csc
I live in greece thats why i download tge eur firmware
In phone info says
Product code:sm-n950fzkaeur
Original csc code:nothing
Firmware's csc code:nothing
Active csc code:eur
Available csc codes:nothing
Csc country:segr/gr
Mobile operator:vodafone gr/20205
Before i made flash in the ative csc was writing dtm and other product code and csc country
I think i made it change or no?
And i go to software information/service provider sw ver. It says
eur/eur/dtm
If i put the note 8 in recovery mode it says multiple csc and active code eur
With this i well get eur ota updates?
So confused

eur/eur/dtm the last CSC will never change as this is hardcoded in the phone firmware.
If the first two are EUR/EUR then you have the correct CSC for OPEN Greece firmware.

So Fotis i will get the ota updates from greece??

use your last valid twrp backup from before the issue to restore:
carrier configs (odm)
efs
also when you flash full stock, use csc.md5 and not home_csc.md5 as CSC file.
it migh be good to research what the very latest firmware files are for your device. there should be a july update somewhere. so use that and try again.
if you want and try to fix ure csc issue try to flash zip in:

beware that you flash this at tour own free will and i cant be held responsible for anything.
do a full backup first.
in aroma choose DBT and choose ure correct CSC code.

SM-G977B - Flash to BTU not working but ODIN Passes

Hey all
Strange one here, i have a SM-G977B (S10 5G on EE UK), i have unlocked it and trying to flash BTU firmware on it via ODIN (download fw from sammobile)
It flashes ok and passes but when phone starts up its CSC is TEL! (Australia!!)
I have re done the flash with XEU and still the same. firmware version says TEL/TEL/EVR in settings
any ideas on this? can this model be flashed to a different region? i want it on BTU not EVR (EE UK)
tried few versions of ODIn too, and left all check boxes default
Thanks
ok, i have reflashed the latest EVR firmware back to the phone and it has taken this fine
Wonder why it doesnt like BTU or XEU?
What firmware files were you trying to flash specifically?
Sounds like you downloaded the wrong one. What are the names of the firmware files you flashed?

Hi
Tried these
https://www.sammobile.com/samsung/firmware/SM-G977B/BTU/download/G977BXXS2ASJ7/299842/
https://www.sammobile.com/samsung/firmware/SM-G977B/XEU/download/G977BXXS2ASJ7/299840/
The above all flash on in Odin, but when the phone starts (even with uk sim in the phone) it defaults to Australia language and 2x Telstra apps install automatically, software info says tel/tel/evr
I then tried this one:
https://www.sammobile.com/samsung/firmware/SM-G977B/VOD/download/G977BXXU2ASJ5/299590/
And the above install the 2x Vodafone uk apps automatically which is fine as I am on Vodafone uk but in software Info is still says vod/vod/evr
What my issue is now is I don’t seem to get 5g on this phone even though I’m on a a 5g contract and has worked previously on a note10+ 5g handset.
Is this handset 5g modem locked to ee?

OK, well I have always had to do that to change CSC via FW flash since the S9 range was released in 2018.
I am waiting for postman to deliver my S10 5G today so will try to flash BTU with OEM Unlock enabled, and let you know the outcome.
(If it doesn't work for me, i will do same as you and flash a network specific FW via Odin - H3G is my network provider).

Hello,
I have the same phone (SM-G977B), I exchanged it with someone in Shanghai (without a box, stupid me)
It was rooted with some CHC firmware (which did not let me download any Google play services), I tried to root the phone (my first time) and ended up re-locking the bootloader.
Later on, while trying different things, I ended up deleting the firmware from TWRP (as I formatted the data, cache folders/directories) as it was not booting up (bootloop on Samsung logo).
Long story short (and rather sad and stupid):
I have a brick phone which has no SD card slot, No OS installed, I do not know the original CSC (except that it was bought in some country in Europe), other firmwares does not flash with Odin (gives me Repartition error failed error), I am unable to mount the device (thought I could transfer the firmware using MTP), I can not change TWRP (downgrade or upgrade) as disk won't mount (for some reasons). I have formatted the disk, changes its format to ext4, ext2 etc.
Any ideas?
