toker_X1 to work after flashing DBT together with Pit file you need to reset the phone from recovery booting (wipe data/factory reset,wipe cache partition) this will change alsou the CSC from XEO to DBT.

Changing CSC Non-root

Sorry noob question, will this trip knox? and how do I change the CSC? I'm not rooted by the way. Thanks!
[Galaxy Note 3 General] ValenteL:
Sorry but my flag is 0x1 from begin my Note3, I'm not worry about that. Can someone answer this please?

If You are from Philippines You have by default the XTC to Your Country, it have Your carrier Globe. I think You not need to change te CSC.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] PlutoDelic:
Quick question. Shouldnt the flashing work without the hidden.img? i've read hidden.img holds only carrier stuff, is the DBT branded??

How to change the CSC

Thanks [MENTION=5327196]Dolgogi[/MENTION]

PS: See this screenshot: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=50657369&postcount=461

If You want, can change the CSC like the example quoted.

PS: Must wipe the internal Sdcard, I'm in doubt.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Dolgogi:
Anyone trying this should back up internal memory naturally, but should also backup SD card

or just remove it like I did.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] orly_mihai:
The CSC will change automatic after flash new firmware and make a reset from recovery.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] ValenteL:
I agree, it arrive to me also. But only if the Rom have my CSC like the Poland Rom have my TPH.

But not work in cases like the Asia Rom's that have CSC's from Singapore, Malaysia, Philippines and Thailand, and there are one Australian Member that havn't your own CSC on that Rom. In this case if he can change from Philippines to Sinagapore he must use the code *#272*imei...

A BN4 from France has come today (XEF, and should be multi CSC)

My history CSC is like this.I bough the phone with 4.3 Baltic SEB than flash UK BTU afther Netherland PHN after Poland XEO and the last one Germany DBT.All the time the CSC change after flash with a reset from recovery.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] ValenteL:
I will see and put in OP. Is uploading to MEGA Host.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Dolgogi:
You are correct about the CSC codes on European ROMs, I found the same results.

However, the Singapore ROM seems to default to XTC on many peoples phones.

At least for those of us outside Singapore.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] ValenteL:
New Rom in OP:

France XEF => XXUENB4_OXXENB1_XXUENB1

OXX = Multi-CSC 21 csc's on Post #5.

Not need the Pit File from DBT. Hidden file = 8.441 KB like Asia Rom NB4.

[Galaxy Note 3 General] ValenteL:
This is solved from 16.02.2014.

If You want, Modem is on Phone (3.07) or CP (3.09).
[Galaxy Note 3 General] newapostlenew:
I See, So you are saying that

1- i

can

flash this LTE modem in this thread? (i have DBT NB4 ROM and the modem on P#5 of this thread is NB3? will that be ok? )

2 - do i reflash the DBT NB4 ROM & MOdem again or i can flash the modem independently?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] quinhas_35:
with firmware polska, i see LTE and DBT i see 4G...

My question is...what best firmware? Polska or new France?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] ValenteL:
The modem on Post #5 is NB3 and NB4, is the same. But what modem have You on Settings / About phone / Base band ???

Try testing it in 3G/4G whit speedtest.net from Play Store.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] newapostlenew:
The baseband which i have is N9005XXUENB1.

Is that the correct one? i flashed the DBT NB4 ROM (non rooted) on a non rooted device.

Appreciate your help.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Dahdoul:
Yes.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] ValenteL:
Is the usual Modem from NB3 and NB4 and NB4 from Asia Rom's. Is good in 3G and 4G.

Here, near my home the 4G is good. whit the Speedtest.net I made 48 Mb/s on my packet from 50 Mb/s.

Test it and not flash anything if it work.

(Rooted or non rooted is same to Modem).
[Galaxy Note 3 General] newapostlenew:
I see. Because on JB my LTE speeds were in the range of 20-40 Mbps however after installing XEO ROM and also on DBT ROM, my LTE becomes almost 0. Any remedy? guidance?

(seetings are ok - i have triple flashed, cache wiped etc but no help)

---------- Post added at 07:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:17 PM ----------

I am testing it since 2 days now. LTE speeds are almost 0 0.4 0.3 etc.

Is there any solution you can think of to remedy this? coz there is no use of KK if the ROM screws up LTE.

Appreciate your help.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] ValenteL:
See on Settings / More networks / Mobile Networks if You have on /Network Mode -> LTE/WCDMA/GSM. If not validate it.

Touch on Access Point Names if You have the APN's from Your carrier/operator. If not (or yes) touch on Menu and Reset to default.

I had one same case when I purchased a new Sim from another operator and not worked the 3G/4G. The touch on Menu and Reset to default solved my case.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] newapostlenew:
I see.

I do get the LTE/WCDMA/GSM (Autoconnect) option which i am using.

I have deleted the APN and reset to default.

However no effect. :(
[Galaxy Note 3 General] ValenteL:
Sorry but from what Country and Carrier are You? May be I can help if I have more data to see something on my Note3 N9005.

I want see the number from Your carrier. Install from Play Store the Network Info II. Open it and in device You see the operator and MCC+MNC. This is the number of carrier. I need this number.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] newapostlenew:
Sure. I am in Saudi Arabia and i am on Zain Saudi Arabia.

Before i upgraded to KK my JB Stock ROM was working fine with LTE Speeds from 20-40Mbps now howevere on both XEO KK ROM and DBT KK ROM 3G/4G speeds are almost 0.

Appreciate any guidance - ValenteL.

---------- Post added at 09:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:48 PM ----------

Were you able t dig u anything? i am thinking f flashing the France ROM What d you suggest?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] ValenteL:
Well, my conclusions. You not have a APN to 3G/4G:

I searched APN's from Zain 42004 on /etc/apns_conf.xml. This file have all APN from all carriers of world in GPS. But:

1- Usually the APN is created from CSC if we wave one from our Country and Carrier. Then the Roms from Poland, Germany and France not have one CSC to Your Country. The APN can't be created from here.

2- In this case the APN is created from file /etc/apns_conf.xml. It's a big file, I have copy it to Pc to analyze. I made it from Note3 4.4.2, from a device whit 4.3 and from another whit 4.2.2. and all have the same to Your carrier Zain:

<apn carrier="zain-gprs"

mcc="420"

mnc="04"

apn="zain"

mmsc="http://10.122.200.12:8002/"

mmsproxy="10.122.200.10"

mmsport="8080"

type="default,supl,mms"

You must have on Note3 one APN called zain-gprs whit apn=zain. But this is not for 3G/4G, is gprs to mms's, a very small speed.

3- Like I made to new SIM from another operator, I phoned to it and the assistant give me the data to create a new APN.

You must make the same, contact the operator to have all to create a new one. On Access Point Names / APNs, touch on + on top right and create it. Save at end in Menu Save.

4- You wrote that on JB stock Rom You had LTE whit a good speed. Must be Your Rom JB that had a CSC from Your Country whit Your carrier Zain.

It's this my conclusion.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] dajumper:
I can confirm that flash with pit file works with dbt firmware! Thanks guys!!
[Galaxy Note 3 General] newapostlenew:
Sure. i flashed the French ROM but LTE speeds remain the same i.e. 0.4 -0.5. i am flabbergasted. :(

i appreciate anything you can offer as guidance or remedy.

Thanks
[Galaxy Note 3 General] ValenteL:
Read my conclusions 2 posts before.

PS: Your CSC is KSA or XFU?

Your JB Rom must be XXUDMJ7 KSA. I will try to see if this Rom have on CSC Your Carrier Zain and see on it the parameters from APN.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] newapostlenew:
Thank you for your detailed analysis and reply.

the APN is exactly as you described it however if i get the settings via sms (autmated from carrier) still it doesnt work.

Ill call th ecarrier now and get the APN settings and update you of progress.

---------- Post added at 07:01 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:54 AM ----------

Hi ValenteL,

Bad news - no matter what settings i put the speeds remain almost 0. is there any possibility this upgrade to KK could have screwed up he modem? or do i need to update a different modem file?

As usual, appreciate your help.

[Galaxy Note 3 General] quinhas_35:
Is not bug, I think depends your CSC because it takes your previous CSC.

DBT is not multi-csc then is more simple.

Enviado do meu SM-N9005 através de Tapatalk
[Galaxy Note 3 General] mikkelrev69:
Yes DTM is faulty and will not flash, but can be modified to work.

XEF (France) NB4 works fine. It has the same csc as XEO (Poland) NB3 which is OXXENB1, the same bootloader, same modem and the same changelist but has newer build date.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] orly_mihai:
The difference between Germany and France is that in lockscreen Germany don't have the camera button but the France have it.Only problem i discover with France is that didn't change CSC it has Poland CSC.And Germany DTM can be flash but you need to flash together with the PIT file and work.And another thing Germany DBT is branded you have a lot of applications.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] tyvar1:
Hamm maybe I should go with NB3 instead for running stock rom! :) not so many changes from NB3 and 4 right?

Hi [MENTION=5744153]newapostlenew[/MENTION]

In my opinion You not need a new modem, this is good. You need an APN to 3G/4G:

Try this like on Zain BH:

Validate the Mobile Data on Notif bar.

Go to APNs. Touch on + to cretate a new. Make this:

Name -> Zain Internet

APN -> internet

On Menu save this. If is good You have 3G or 4G on Top bar. If note...put more...

User Name -> internet

Password -> internet

On Menu save new. If is good 3G or 4G on Top bar... good. If not... I unknown help more.

You must make Your APH whit help from assistant from Your carrier/operator Zain.

Or wait for a Rom to Your Country. Today there are many NB4's. May be next days You have Your.

Poland, Germany, France or Asia Rom's are same to You, not solve Your case. Not have Your CSC.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] tyvar1:
i had that pit in and re partation, i got FAIL! ... what todo?

edit: also tried without pit and re partation, didnt work...

edit2: trying NB3 poland now!

edit3: NB3 worked! will stick on that for now!
[Galaxy Note 3 General] ValenteL:
Try Pit file alone first, whit re-partition ticked. Then, if is good, new Download Mode and flash the Rom alone also.

Use Odin3 v3.09.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] tyvar1:
thanks! but i think i will stay on NB3 until omega updates to NB4 ;) alot less hassle then!
[Galaxy Note 3 General] ValenteL:
But the Pit file is only to DBT Rom. Why not the French NB4, not need the pit file and have the csc SEE South East Europe. Not good for You?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] orly_mihai:
I try flash now SEE version but the same like France CSC remain Poland XEO.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] ValenteL:
See whit Root Explorer what csc You have on /efs/imei/mps_code.dat . Edit this file in view txt whit RE.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] orly_mihai:
This will be a problem.I'm not rooted.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] ValenteL:
Why CSC XEO always?

The Rom's NB4 Poland, France and SEE have all the XEO by default. This arrive on many Rom's, the csc in the name is not the same that is by default.

From Asia NB4 is the same. The Rom Singapore XSP not have this csc by default but the XTC from Philippines.

It is't only on this device, this arrive in many. Sometimes I download and install a Rom TPH to Portugal but it have by default the EUR from Greece.

I don't understand this work from Samsung or SamMobile.

Is this the reason that all Members here have always XEO.

To see this I extract from Rom the cache.img.ext4 whit winrar (after make it only .tar) and ripe the cache.img.ext4 whit a CacheRiper by [MENTION=220882]AdamLange[/MENTION] Thank You. Inside this we have all about CSC from Rom's, in /csc we have all CSC folders and the 4 files from the one by default.

Note: This Mod created by CacheRiper is flashable by recovery but not here. It is from SIII Mini I8190. Never try it here.

Someone change the CSC by this on phone keyboard -> *#272*imeicode# . For me not work I don't know why but You can try. This must wipe the internal sdcard. And to be more safe pull out the extSdCard also.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] quinhas_35:
*#272*imei# not work for me with NB4 from Poland or France. I tried so many times and finally I choose NB4 from Germany...

Dear ValentL,

Probably when 4.4.2 out to Portugal, it will be OXX (same from France). My question is, can i apply OTA updates on my Note3? I change CSC with root...

Best Regards,

Pedro Ferreira
[Galaxy Note 3 General] ValenteL:
Bom dia

1- When we have a 4.4.2 out to Portugal whit OXX the TPH is installed by default if it is by default in the Rom (like today is XEO). In this case the TPH is writed on /mps_code.dat

Or if we have alredy TPH on /efs/imei/mps_code.dat (to see this only whit access root). The CSC is installed here on a Clean install Rom.

Some Members installed the DBT Rom. Is a single CSC then the DBT was writed on /mps_code.dat. After, when he installed a French or SEE Rom, the OXX of it not have DBT, then is installed the XEO that is by default. Now he have XEO on /mps_code.dat. May be confused but I try to give You my Known. (may be whit some errors, I accept another opinions).

2- I never accept OTA's, I don't like it. I never know what OTA install on my phone, only see the size. And I like see what I will install. I hate OTA's. Then, I don't know anything about.

3- The Knox flag is only 0x0 (Knox secure) or 0x1 (Knox non secure). Never 0x2. There is only one bit.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] quinhas_35:
Thanks. I agree with you about CSC... Same happened with me. Now I have French ROM but with CSC TPH (changed by root). I think when Samsung out firmware to Portugal, if I flash I will stay with official firmware.

Anyone found a decent car mount for the wizard

I need one for satnav. I've seen one for about £45 that has a built in speaker etc - don't really need that

Would be interesting to hear (and see pics) of what people are using
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Accessories] bryson:
Hi Hays,

Have you considered the Brodit holder solution?

Have a look (link below) or drop me a message and I will be happy to advise (Wizard listed either as Xda Minis or MDA vario)

you have the choice of passive holders, active holders charged by cig lighter or permanent fixed power version also for hidden cables etc. All attach onto a proclip mount that is specific to your vehicle, in a variety of positions on your dashboard.

Hope that helps,

Cheers, Bryson
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Accessories] hays:
That kit looks very good quality - seems quite expensive though !!

I use different cars at work, so I need something that can be moved easily. Could I use the holder with a different mount, ie perhaps a vent mount (that's not too hard to move from car to car) or failing that a suction mount (not too keen on a suction mount due to the smaller display of the mini s )

Was thinking of this

Bryson, I'm after a active holder with no cable attached, so that I can add a "Y"-type lighter plug cable that will charge both my Qtek 9100 and my Bluetooth GPS mouse. (I had a similar one for my h6340, and want to stay with Brodit.)

Is Brodit developing such a holder design soon?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Accessories] bryson:
Hi,

Yeah there are 2 available from Brodit, codes 848650 & 848655 (Called passives so you can insert your cable as mentioned)

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Accessories] sco0by:
I got the brodit clip and horizontal holder for my XDA Mini S from dsldevelopments, and am very happy with both the clip and the service!

I tried one of those cheap ebay mounts that clips onto the airvent but thay was useless and moved all over the place. The brodit clip goes over my S60's vent perfectly and is very solid.

The only thing I would suggest is instead of using the supplied screws to attach the holder to the mount - use velcro. I did this on mine so that I can quickly remove the holder and put it in the glove box. Good for security as passers by cant see I have a satnav mount and wont try breaking in to see if its in the glovebox!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Accessories] bryson:
Hi,

Instead of velcro, Brodit make a 'Moveclip', one part fits on the back of the holder, the female (2 supplied for x2 proclips) part fits onto the proclip, and both parts slide together, giving an very strong fix, and also the flexibilty of being able to move a holder between 2 vehicles with proclips/gooseneck installed. (also serves the same purpose of being able to remove the holder from sight to stop the thieves!)

Hope that helps, heres a link:

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Accessories] redballoon:
instead of a car mount I did something different. I just bought myself a nice case for the mda vario (e.g. noreve, piel frama). These cases are made of leather, and therefore they have good grip.

I just lay the case on the kilometer radial in front of me, and it stays there. Even in sharp corners.

The advantages are: cheap as you don't need a car mount and thief protection as there is no car mount visible.
