It is possible as I myself have done it with other devices.

If you can try the flash again with ODIN and then post the output log then we can find out which partition fails.

Just reflash your stock firmware after the failure.

By the way I don't own this particular device.

In the meantime I'm going to download the stock A9100 firmware and check the image sizes against the a910f firmware.

I tried to flash the A910F with Odin and It's give Auth fail on pitfile and stops there. I downloaded the firmware via samfirm 0.36 with binary to get the full 4 firmware files. Extract the pit file, point to it in Odin and BL, CSC, CP, AP in their slots and it always fail. Also does not work with flashfire with a single firmware file.

But now there is another way, I did it yesterday and works great. No Chinese! Credits to [MENTION=5466531]dadimon29[/MENTION]. You flash the full A9100 firmware but untick autoreboot. Once finished you boot back in download mode and flash [MENTION=4899305]ashyx[/MENTION] TWRP with Odin with no reboot. Reboot again to TWRP, flash the no-verity-no-encrypt_ashyx.zip, reboot again to twrp, now format data not wipe! Mount system and flash Supersu, your own CSC file and GPS.conf for your region and the GAPPS micro package. Now reboot to samsung and you will find everything is English or whatever language you prefer. And Google works out of the box, no permission errors. Now I can keep this phone!

Could you tell me what firmware files you downloaded exactly? When you reboot your phone, does it show Galaxy A9 Pro in english? I'm still a little confused on the procedure too
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Android Development] steberg:
In order to get rid of the Chinese when you boot up I guess you have to flash the bootloader from A910F but you can't.

Download Samfirm 0.36 and download the latest SM-A9100 firmware.

[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Android Development] ashyx:
You can try this out.

I have repacked the A910F firmware so it will be flashable on the A9100. I have replaced the A910F build.prop with the A9100 build.prop to help prevent boot issues.

It is the system image only. It should flash fine with ODIN in the AP slot. Whether it will boot or not is another matter, but I should think it will. If everything will be working, I don't know.

It may also be necessary to flash the A910F kernel boot.img. NOTE: this boot.img does not support encryption.

A910FXXU1APFC_no_encryptable_boot

Make sure you have a TWRP backup of the system partition or the stock firmware before flashing just in case you need to restore.

Not working for me... I have A9100, I have tried with many version of the stock rom and always the same problem.. At the moment I try to flash something else than an original rom from samsung in Odin, it's failed at the end.. On my phone screen in Download mode I have a message during the flashing that say " Secure Fail : Recovery" in red. Also the model A9100 doesn't have OEM unlock in developper mode so... I don't know if the problem come from there !! For your info in the download mode there's many thing written, one of them is "Reactivation Lock : OFF" I don't know what that mean and if it's important in this case !! My objective is to install the playstore and it's seem impossible without rooting before and I 'm not able to root it . I tried with CF-Auto and your method... nothing to do !! Maybe your way is only for A910..

How to take the CSC from another device to put it on my A9100?

Hi [MENTION=7421982]steberg[/MENTION]!

Your solution on the quoted post sounds perfect for me, but I don't know how to do it...

Instead, I've used the CSC Selection application suggested by [MENTION=7772703]6madam9[/MENTION] on #78, wich worked well to change from chinese to english but is not enough because I would like to have the "S" apps in my country's language.

Would you mind telling me how have you done it? I just couldn't find any CSC folder on my A9100 file system, and even though I've copied the /etc/system/csc folder from the A910F firmware's tar file to my A9100 file system, nothing happened.

Well it is not easy and i am not very good in making tutorial but i will try to help a little bit :

1) download any rom that contains your country csc

2) open your rom with winrar

3) extract cache.img.ext4

4) use imgExtractor on the file cache.img.ext4

5) go into the created folder/recovery/

6) your csc is inside sec_csc.zip

How (and where) to put the CSC in my A9100?

Thanks for your prompt response [MENTION=7613401]footskater[/MENTION], the steps are quite clear!

The only but is: this is the part I'd already could manage to do, I did it using the A910F rom...

My question is about how to put the CSC files in the A9100 properly so they can do their job. How did you created the zip package so it could be installed by TWRP?

The way I tried:

1) Copied the sec_csc.zip files to a folder called CSC in a USB Stick

2) Connected the USB Stick to the OTG port on the A9100 and rebooted the A9100 to TWRP

3) Mounted System partition

4) Went to the Advanced > File Manager and created a folder /system/etc/csc on the A9100 file system

5) Copied the contents of the USB Stick's CSC folder (files contents.db, customer.xml, default_application_order.xml, default_workspace.xml, easylauncher_default_workspace.xml, language.xml, others.xml and sales_code.dat) to that /system/etc/csc folder

6) Rebooted to system

Didn't worked!
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Android Development] footskater:
changing csc always require factory reset

The easiest way is to flash sec_csc.zip from TWRP but to make it works you have to perform a factory reset so you will lose all your data.

I would prefer to wipe everything and start over by flashing a9100 rom -> flash TWRP -> flash sec_csc.zip.

2 things :

First = Don't let your phone boot on system before flashing sec_csc.zip otherwise you will have to start over or factory reset after flashing

Second = If your csc is multi country i suggest you to select the csc inside the zip then you won't have to use csc selector.

sec_csc.zip > system > csc > others.xml > Change "country" and "salescode" according to your needs.
