CSC Changed - Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all,
hoping somebody can help me?
My stock csc was XEU and i went ahead and flashed a custom rom where XEU wasn't available in the csc selector so i chose BTU.
I am now trying to return to full stock by flashing XEU stock rom but unfortunately my phone has kept the BTU csc and i haven't found a way to change this. Is there a way for me to force the phone to pick up XEU again?
Thanks in advance

Is XEU in the CSC subfolder?
If it is, try *#272*IMEI# in the dialer. Use your IMEI number!

not sure how to check the csc subfolder?
i have tried your suggestion of dialing *#272*MYIMEI# in the dialer but nothing happens

just to confirm i have found xeu inside System\CSC
so definitely is there, just dont know what to do with it

In that case, you can try the sales_code.dat file. Edit it to your carrier name.

Yeah stock recovery doesn't like when you just manipulate the files to change carriers! Too bad the dialer method didn't work for you. That was how I changed mine when it defaulted to BMC instead of RWC when I went back to stock.

[Q] Original CSC Code

Does anybody know how to find the original CSC code? I have updated my firmware several times and I don't have the original CSC Code.
Now when I connect to KIES It says "This version of the device can not be updated".
Help
Type *#272*(IMEI)# and you will see the CSC list.Select and done.By doing this it will reboot via (if i remember correctly)factory reset so may be a good idea to back-up but it should warn you first that it will fact/reset so if you want you can cancel and back-up if you havnt already.
EDIT:also depending on what firmware you put on your phone and depending on what your product code also is Kies might not recognize your firmware either.

Thanks for your opinion. There are several CSC Codes and I don't know what code to select. Because I don't know what my original CSC Code was.

Depending on the firmware it may or may not be in there but for singapore see if there is an OLB in there.Some multi CSC packages dont always have what you want.For example most here in XDA dont have FOP for Spain so Im left using KOR instead which is Korea.It works atleast.If its not there you could try OZS for HongKong

it appears that XDA and samfirmware have conflicting CSCs for india.Samfirmware may 11 for India have ODD and XDA have INU.
Currently I have installed XEU (I think UK). So will this be problem? Actually I don't have sound idea about CSC?

The CSC is just location specific apn settings and maybe bundles apps. Nothing hugely important.
If you are missing your apn settings did net or mms you can just enter them manually or change CSC.

In most cases i wont make any difference.As I said earlier sometimes here in Spain Im forced to use KOR which is Korea and it works fine.If you have an original firmware flashed for your region it should be in there but I find that in my case when I flash the XDA firmwares they usually are missing my CSC although they can be flashed seperatly.If you have a KOR then give it a try to as its probably a better region choice.if it works here in Spain it should be good for Singapore.

New Vodafone 32GB S3 after Odin stock flash won't let me change CSC

My last one got stolen (long story), and annoyingly this new one won't let me change CSC even after flashing with Odin. When I go to the change CSC option, only one I'm given in the list is VOD. BTU and the others aren't even there to choose from.
Can anyone help me out?
On a side note, it also won't connect to Kies any more either...

SG2-NO other languages than English on keyboard

I've just flashed the stock Nordic ICS ROM, I had the one for UK&Ireland before and since then I've not been able to use any other language on keyboard than the English one. I've choosed more than 2 different languages and noone of them has been able to work. Swiping the gap button changes the name of the language but the font remains the same.
I flashed again Nordic via Odin, I also flashed UK ROM (XEU) again, I reseted the phone through settings, recovery and password, nothing changed at all. More, I reseted the data of the keybord apk, the problem still here.
It's insane, I need your immediate help, this problem came out of nothing, I've followed the right procedure of flshing with the ROMs of sammobile, before flashind everything was alright, now it's not.
Please let me know if you have any solution to this or any knowledge of the fact.
Thanks

In these two minutes I've found out what the CSC is and with a password I accesed directly this menu. It's empty. Up above, it's written XEU and below that there is a blank option. So when I choose that, a message pops up "needs THREE characters".
Which are the options now ?

Sorry for the blurry photo, a quick one.
As you can see, none. As I described before.
I can't even get what happened and lost that CSC, the first flash one month ago was absolutely OK, now the same ROM, as well as the Nordic one, has this issue.
Now ?

Agree, that's strange. I can select it, tap INSTALL and the message "Needs THREE chars" pops up.
I'm gonna flash the Nordic ROM again and check these CSC options, if there's any difference.
I realised that some ROM rars contain only the .tar file, others also contain two more .md5 files, one of them is used into the Odin at the section CSC for flashing. But I can't do anything more with that I guess.

One .tar file combines the 3 .tar files together, so that shouldn't be the problem.

I know, I've already done it. I'm from Greece but I don't want to use the Greek ROm since it's stuck on 4.0.3, that's why I downloaded the Nordic one.
Last effort now, fingers crossed.

Downloaded, flashed again. All that after I had wiped cache and dalvik cache and reseted the phone. Nothing. Still no CSC option, no other language in use. One thing I've noticed in Odin, once it concluded the installation, the message into the green area showed 3:5. Does this mean that the installation ws not full eventully ? Also, I open the .tar file and I can't see any CSC .bin file.

If you want to change your keyboard language, you can download better keyboard alternatives in market.
But if you want back csc code, i think you will need to flash an extracted csc.tar package or another firmware via Odin

That's normal and the same as mine. Strange that I got the Oreo OTA today and you didn't...not sure why.
OXM refers to the multi-CSC package our phone has. Since our home country CSC is not part of it, nothing changes for us when we insert our SIM. I believe you can still change CSC but I haven't tried that yet. I would check the CSC-change threads and read up from there.

Thanks you so much mate. Really appreciate it. I guess your csc is xsg but you don't live in Arab Emirates

Now you can not change CSC code with firmware + SIM-card

I could easily change the CSC code on my Note9: just installed OXM firmware + factory reset with needed code SIM-card (Thailand for example). But this method does not work anymore. How to change a CSC code on S10?
At least on S8(without the sim card), I would flash a firmware of my choice and and then entered bootloader one time and restarted the phone. I don't know if the procedure has changed with S9 or higher model
This method works for S9/S9+/Note9 but with S10 not ;(
Any news on this issue? Trying to change the region from CAC to SER, with Russian SIM in roaming, and get CAU CSC.
I Will keep an eye on this as I just received a Duos 973F and i cannt switch CSC.
That's not true. I've changed mine from H3G to BTU.

I suppose you flashed a whole new firmware? I did the same. It was branded as DBT but now I have BTU, same as you. I.e., I seem to have the same multi-CSC. I cannot set it to DBT, though. I think this is what the OP asked.
The CSC will change depending on what SIM card you have in the device when you flash. ?
I think you need root if you want to manually change CSC.
For me I also flashed with ZTO fw which seems multi and i can´t start the phone with brazil CSC. I´ve tried everything. If someone can help would be much appreciated.

Flash the phone with the firmware for your region with the SIM card in the device using the wipe CSC package, i.e. the one that doesn't start with "HOME" in it's name, and then when the phone restarts it should detect the SIM card region and load a CSC for that country.

Thanks. I did that already downloaded the fw from Sammobile (ZTO) Brazil and did this process but it starts in spanish with the same codes from carrier. It's not working...
I also get BTU CSC after flashing. I wouldn't mind it if only I could enable caller id and spam protection, but the option is greyed out.
I still have volte working on my french carrier with BTU CSC.
Is the caller id and spam protection feature available for you ?
