Changing the CSC - Samsung Galaxy A71 Questions & Answers

Hi all
I have an A71 which is running one ui 2.1. The phone is on the South African Vodafone CSC which is XFV. My problem is that Vodafone takes forever to release the updates. I want to change my CSC to the normal South African one which is XFE. Can anyone please direct me on how to do this and if possible to do it in a way without losing my data. The model number is A715F if it helps. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance

There is already a thread on this: https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-a71/how-to/guide-how-to-change-csc-a71-t4156773
The updated firmware for XFV was released today so you will likely get it soon: https://www.sammobile.com/samsung/galaxy-a71/firmware/SM-A715F/XFV/download/A715FXXU3ATI8/464667/

Yes. Thank you very much. I got the update. Also I did visit the thread but I saw comments stating it does not work since the August 2020 patch was released. Thank you for the reply. Much appreciated .

[Q] Samsung Galaxy S I9000 Denmark

Hello,
I have my Samsung Galaxy S for 3 days and I bought it from Elgiganten (Denmark), and I think it has something to do with TDC, because I found one icon with TDC on my menu. (the phone is bought without contract for any carrier...I use prepay BiBoB SIM). The problem is that when I connect the phone to computer I can't do any update. Is there a problem with the software or there is really no update for it?
Thank you in advance for understanding and for any suggestion.
You need to make sure you have the latest Kies update for firmware updates to become visible.
I already have the latest Kies version ( 1.5.3.10103_100), and still no available firmware update....
Is there anyone from Denmark that made an update to the firmware using Kies?
Thx for the reply!

Chances are, if Kies is recognizing the phone okay, and your phone is going into Samsung Kies "mode" when you plug it into the computer.. and the fact you just got it 3 days ago i would suspect there is no updates at this time.... even if others from Denmark have got updates in the past... your unit probably already has the latest and greatest considering how new it is!!!.
There is a thread floating around here somewhere listing all the most up to date firmwares per Country.. do a search... you'll find it i'm sure..
Currently there is no updates for TDC product code.
Thats because the official 2.2 update will be out soon.
TDC is the product code of a branded phone, the unbranded Danish variant would be with XEE product code.
This means more waiting from my side
Thank you all for the replies!

Thanks for the info, glad to hear it's finally rolling out. Just hope it won't hit any region limitation cause i've read somewhere you need to have right SIM card for branded phone just to see OTA or something similar.

For unbranded also, just have your regional SIM card inserted and you should get the update.
EDIT: If you use TIM branded one in Belgrade you will need SIM from that region to receive OTA.

314 MB large in my case, no difference AFAIK. Also, change log is quite generic:" This update improves system security with Google security patches".

Just follow the steps in this thread below. XME is the Malaysian CSC which is included in the multi csc oxm.
https://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/foru...cial-stock-firmware-update-odin-t3677072/amp/
I finally flashed a new firmware(security patch from Oct) and everything went well!Status is still official and Knox wasn't tripped. One thing is weird though. Smart switch doesn't see my firmware version anymore.
Thanks everybody for all help,much appreciated!!

Question Is it possible to change CSC on S21?

Hey,
I know there are lots of thread about this topic but I read pretty much all of the posts but I always gets mixed result. Some people says it's possible and some says its not.
I have G998B/DS (Exynos model) and it's running LYS (united arab emirates) and last update I got was June update! (G998BXXU3AUE1) Today I read some US models got July update!
Is it possible I change my CSC to somewhere else like BTU so I can get updates faster? Does SamKey method works? If yes how many credits do I need for changing my csc?
I know I can download framework and install it manually with odin but I like OTA updates which is pretty safe and easy.
Any help would be appreciated

And you are going to change CSC each time another country get update quicker? It is first time when US received update faster... Also 99% of us are still on June update lol

What? NO!
Have you read my post?
I said LYS is late in updates and I want to change it to other county's CSC like BTU
Leave the CSC and just perform any new updates from the regions that get them through Odin.
Simply choose the home CSC file from the update download and you get the updated firmware but keep your CSC and any network related features that depend on it intact and without touching Knox.
I really don't get the fascination some people seem to have with changing CSC.

Got it today in Germany, too, and all went well ... so this issue is not region/OTA related.
Updated, runs smooth so far

Great
BTW:
Maybe it is just my imagination, but I think the phone runs cooler than before.
Even while gaming it stayed cooler.
Can someone confirm, that they have the same experience as me?
