[Q] Region Change

Hi,
I bought the phone MPai 809T shipped from China to UAE. I had set the region to United Arab Emirates during initial configuration. The phone was working till I was in Abu Dhabi, UAE. Used it for 2 months in UAE. Now I am in India and no India SIM working here. It is detecting the SIM, but not showing signal or tower. When I try to make a call, it says "Mobile Network Unavailable". Please let me know how to change the country to India??? I suspect the Region Setting is the one causing the issue. India SIM is working in different mobile.
Please let me know. My phone is useless now. Shall I install a new ROM which will support Indian mobile networks??? Or Should I change the CSC Number??? And how to do that???
Please help.
Thanks,
Joe

[Q] Travelling to Indonesia. About CSC Codes

Hi,
I'm travelling to Indonesia this summer and want to use an Indonesian SIM whilst I am out there. Using GalaxSim, I can tell that my phone is network unlocked, however it says that CSC Lock is 'locked'. I live in the UK and know the CSC on my phone is BTU, as I has previously flashed with a BTU firmware.
So two questions,
a) What does CSC Lock 'locked' actually mean?
b) Will I be able to put an Indonesian SIM in with no issues?
Thanks.

Changing CSC of an unlocked S9+ G965U

Hello everyone. I'm struggling to find a starting point on how to change the csc of my phone. I haven't changed a csc before and there are lots of conflicting info on the forum. I'm familiar with Odin and flashing ROMs in general.
I bought my phone from the US, and it has the AT&T G65USQU1ARBI (unlocked) software, however, I live outside the US and I want to change the CSC. I want Samsung Pay to show me offers from my region.
Where to start?
Should I flash a different ROM straight away? and would that change my CSC? Obviously, I don't want any of the AT&T features, so I don't mind changing the ROM.
Is there a ROM that I can flash that supports multi-CSC options? The Samsung variant in my region is Exynos, so can I still change the CSC to my region with my Snapdragon S9+ ?
Thanks guys.
EDIT: Just learned about the snapdragon root dilemma. So I guess the root option will be dismissed.
I bought a s9 + G965F with csc Singapore but I use in Brazil 4G network is ok but I can not use voLTE and Wi-Fi calling can someone help me? version of the OXM operator.

Carrier Specific Firmware

Hi all,
Is it possible to change the network provider configuration on the Mate 20 Pro?
My phone originally came from Vodafone and as such is branded by then however I have had the handset unlocked and would like to use Three (H3G) in the phone. As the phone is branded Vida I don’t get access to VoLTE or VoWi-Fi.
Is there a way to force it to change carrier settings?
Thanks for your help.

Updating Using Odin

hi.. just wanna ask a simple question. my sister from u.s gave me her note 8 here in the philippines. the phone is open line already, and any sim here in the philippines can be use. i'm planning to update it with android pie using odin. now my question is, does flashing CSC will make my phone lock again to its original network provider? or it will stay open to any sim here in the philippines?
