Samsung SM-G975F/DS CSC update not happening - Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers

I got my new SM-G975F/DS and it is showing CSC as TPA/TPA, TPA/TPA, though I am using a US sim and an Indian sim. I flashed the latest INS firmware by ODIN and firmware download through Samfirm, but there is no change in the CSC. I used CSC file started with only CSC, not with the 'HOME_CSC'.
When tried to flash only CSC file though ODIN, I am getting an error (attached).
Is there any relation with the OEM_unlocking during flashing? I have NOT changed it from the default setting; if changed and flashed will it cause KNOX to be void?
I do not want to void my KNOX. Any help to change the CSC will be very helpful.

Update: I finally got the CSC updated. I took the risk of flashing the latest Firmware of desired CSC through ODIN by unlocking OEM_unlocking and it is done. Also, the KNOX is remaining valid.
Thank you.

Firmware change from Branded to Unbranded

Hey guys,
i've got the G800F branded by T-Mobile.
PDA G800FXXU1ANL2
CSC G800FDTM1ANL1
I would like to flash the unbranded DBT version.
PDA G800FXXU1ANL1
CSC G800FDBT1ANJ1
since i dont want to trip the knox counter i've read that flashing the same firmware wont trigger it. the last letter in the PDA / CSC code is for the version right? since the last letter in the CSC from the DBT version is "J" which is before the "L" would flashing the DBT version trigger my knox?
greetings and thx

You won't trip the knox since it is stock Don't worry about anything. Just flash it via odin in PDA/AP section and don't forget to wipe data and cache after installing

Stuck with old firmware (no updates available)

I'm stuck with the an old firmware, even the security update was on March 1, 2018. It is from Singapore (STH) but I am currently in the Philippines. When manual update is used, it says latest software installed.

You have to get familiar with using ODIN if you want to have the latest firmware.
https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-note8/SM-N950F/SER/download/N950FXXU5CSA3/251208/
This will wipe your device due to mismatched CSC, so backup first.
Don't worry. You can switch to English for these ROMS.

Thank you kind sir. Flashing official firmware via ODIN does not trigger knox? Also is it normal that I do not receive ota updates because I changed countries or networks?

Well I can answer one of your questions and that NO it won't trip Knox because you'll be flashing the OEM firmware straight from Samsung.
If you have Samsung switch on PC you can see by plugging your phone to the PC and see if it comes up with an update. If not use the Odin to update your phone.
Use the home-csc file and you won't lose your data! (Flash the bl,ap,cp, "home-csc" in odin)
Warning ! The csc file (CSC be itself) WILL delete your data!
But choose just one csc file, so choose the one you want.

If I choose the CSC file and not the Home CSC file, will I be able to change from STH (Singapore Starhub) to XTC (Philippines Openline)?

If you take your sim card out and do the csc file flash it will default to xsg/xsg/xsg. (I think)
As soon as you put your sim card in it will go to the csc that your sim card sets it to as long as it's in The multi-csc firmware. ( the OXM in the firmware name is the multi-csc.)
So check the official note 8 SM-N950F firmware thread in the guide sub forum to see if your csc is in the oxm firmware.
You can change the csc but you'll need the combination firmware to do that. Search for changing csc in xda there are guides on how to do it.
edit for some corrections.......
Edit 2: just check the oxm XTC is included in it. So take sim card out (!!!!but first backup up all important data to pc!!!) Use Odin with the csc file (to erase phone, basically start from scratch like you just turned on the phone for the first time.) Let it boot up without sim card, then place sim card in and see.

Not able to change CSC after June firmware

Hi Guys,
I have tried several methods and combination to change my CSC but no success yet. I have below issue :
1. I had initially DBT CSC
2. After June firmware, I changed my CSC to BTU
3. NOw i want it change to DBT but not able to do so
I installed XID (indonesian) firmware that changed my CSC but then I flashed again DBT firmware and CSC was automatic set to BTU. I didnt event got the option to select the sim service right after boot.
I tried it with different firmwares and all results in BTU.
I also tried removing sim while flashing but nothing helped. Was there any change in June firmware that permanently set by CSC to BTU no matter which firmware i flash, if it is multi csc, it is always by default set to BTU.
Hope to have some genious ideas on changing my CSC.
thanks,

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!
