Changing my Galaxy S10 Firmware CSC while updating - Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers

Hello Everyone,
I'm new here. What brought me to this forum was the issue of not getting OTA updates due to using a model imported from another region. My device's CSC is SPR (sprint) but my local carrier works on it just fine. My problem is better elaborated here in this other post :
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/question-about-flashing-firmware-from-a-different-region.4043665/
After reading the above thread I decided not to change my firmware to the model firmware for my region as its SoC is Exynos and my phone is Snapdragon. However, I still want to use Odin to upgrade the firmware to Android 11 as I'm still stuck on Android 9 (may 2019 update) and I can no longer bear it.
In the post in the above link, a reply recommended using the USA (USC) CSC, so here's my question,
Would updating with SPR (my current CSC) make my phone unable to work with my local carrier on update completion? or should I just update using USC?
PS: The SPR CSC came with no bloatware, I don't know what the USC CSC will come with.
Service provider info is attached below.
Thanks in advance.

Indonesian SM-N960F Note9 Exynos Dual SIM CSC Switch Question

Hi Guys ! I purchased my Note9 SM-N960F/DS Exynos in Indonesia. I believe the country code for my CSC is XID and I am planning to change it to XEU.
My question would be as follow:
1.) Is it possible for me to switch to any OXM based ROM (e.g. XEU)?
2.) What kind of problems will I be facing if I were to switch to an OXM based ROM from a non-OXM based ROM?
3.) Will it trip KNOX? I do not plan to root my device.
I'm very new to Samsung. Thanks in advance guys!

wont trip knox. might loose region specific stuff like samsung pay.
get the correct n960f firmware and flash it with odin.
there are tons of sites hosting the firmwares( Roms as you called them but stock images are referred as firmwares ). there are also other threads to read for doing the procedure without root. some threads also supply direct links to these firmwares. just search and read. you can also use samfir tool 0.3.6 to downlaod when you have the excat model and region codes of the desired files.

[HELP] NOTE 9, region not changed after flashing new ROM

Hi all,
I got Note 9 (N960F) 3 months ago from UAE. First thing I did was installing the UK (BTU) software in it as I'm in the UK.
Even though I'm currently on N960FXXS2ARJ4 build number [UK software] as it's available at SamMobile website
My Samsung Pay is still configured to UAE. And when I click on About Phone on the settings below the IMEI numbers, there is a United Arab Emirates section showing some TRA ID number.
Could you please help?
You need to change csc using combination file before flash the firmware u want. Got many thread about that here. Try search it on how to change csc.

Galaxy Note 9 ???

Hi there,
I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 9 SCV40 Japan version phone. The Firmware of this phone is N960FXXS4CSK2, CSC is N960UOYN3CSK2, Bootloader is SCV40KDU1BSK2. As far as I know it is mixed. PDA from Exynox model N960F and CSC from Snapdragon N960U and Bootloader is from phone SCV40 Snapdragon Japan.
How is this possible and how can I update my firmware? Please help???
Go to Samfw and download correct firmware for you model and flash with odin.
From what is posted ,the bootloader is bit1 so OP can flash firmware that is bootloader S1 or U1. If OP flashes any firmware that increases the bootloader number he will not be able to downgrade. So any bit1 firmware will work.

Thank you all for your response. To clarify further the issue, I bought the phone in Dubai. The shop told me it is used one but only for short time. Originally the phone was from Japan. It is Galaxy Note 9 Model SCV40, KDDI from carrier "au". At first I didn't know it was from Japan, since in Settings, About Phone, Model number says N960F. I only find out later as I tried to update to Android 10. The firmware on the phone is for Exynos variant. But my phone is Snapdragon. I checked with phone info app and cpu-z to make sure. As I mentioned earlier the phone has mixed firmware. PDA N960F, Bootloader SCV40 (Some people say it is N960J) ???, CSC N960U from Snapdragon USA, code GSA, XAA. As you see it is a bit confusing I need help. Can I update only the PDA N960F to Android 10 by using 5 parts firmware and leave the others (bootloader and csc) as it is? Thanks
Sorry for login mix, It is me. Surmam. Thanks
Additional info, if it helps. When I dial *#1234# this is what comes out.
AP: N960FXXS4CSK2, CP: N960FXXS4CSK2, CSC: N960FOXM4CSK2
Dear butchieboy and Arobase40, how are you? You have been trying to help me. I was hoping that you will find solution for my problem. But you stopped replying. I don't know what I said or did. Did I offended you in some way? If so please forgive me it was not intentional. Saying that I have still not found a solution so please help me.
Thanks and God bless you all.
