Would need to compare pits to see if there is a additional block between N and U/U1: If the firmware is compatible.

Be sure to check the XDA threads specifically for your device. Other's may report success or failure of a N crossflash.

OEM Unlock missing is totally ruining any effort to use ODIN/TWRP/Lineage.

I've tried every hack fix on this NOTE 8 Snapdragon. Factory reset, date change, update check, vol/up/down/bixby/pwr variations, nothing will unlock this darn phone for initial setup.

Are Legacy Samsung users screwed? Would love to root and remove samsun/tmobile bloatware. Also really want to test out some tether hotspot with a fresh stock OS.

Any advice greatly appreciated. I dont mind running Linux commands on via USB if thats an option.

Cheers!

Try U1 firmware to remove tmobile bloat and enable stock tethering. Look to device specific XDA threads for root and such.

Hi everyone, i am very new at this and i am sorry of this is a little stupid to ask, i am having trouble with my s21 5g sd888 USA set (g991u).. How do i know which version do i have to download to flash it to get g991u1? I am only doing this because my mobile data is always not working, most probably because the fw is locked and doesnt support my carrier. Im using Digi from Malaysia, the fw i believe is a T-Mobile fw.. Help please anyone. Please kindly let me know what do i have to check to make sure it matches with the version i need to flash to. And another thing is, will there be any downside to flashing from 1u to 1u1?Thank you so much in advance.

Model number : G991U/DS

Baseband : G991USQU4BUKF

Hello,

Going through all 29 pages of this thread tells me that it works for most modern samsung devices. I have an ancient Galaxy Tab (verizon)(SM-T537v).

Could I Flash SM-T535 fw on it. Both are binary version "2" and both are on android 5.1.1 Lollipop.

The hardware is exactly same, infact upon opening up my tab, i see some parts(wifi, etc) coded with SM-T535 already.

Thanks.
[Android Software Development] realbbb:
Odin will flash the tab series. However, before you do, I suggest you check the specific hardware xda threads for your device. Some models are not recommended for cross flashing. Make sure the t537v is not one of them.

Thanks for the quick reply, I've given my tab for repairing the home button strip(so i get into download mode).

I will try my luck on it :)

My tab came back from repairs. I tried it yesterday, it fails with "Auth" error. I tried removing aboot.mbn and it still fails(this time at system.img.ext4) it also failed at cache(which i skipped). It surely has some signature-verification. Any idea on how to deal with it? I can get the tab to temp-root(root goes after reboot) as of now

Post the pits from the original firmware and the firmware you want to cross flash.

Have you been successful with flashing the original firmware?

Definitely review the XDA threads that cover flashing that device.

[Android Software Development] Evan_Ferrao:
All the firmwares, pit are uploaded on here

My device is SM-T537v, and the original fw flashes fine.

I tried flashing SM-T535 which is the closest device, I found. I've attached the pit for the europe variant and mine respectively. Additional PIT files for similar Tab 4's sister devices can be found here

If you're interested in the dump of my tabs firmware, it is here

[Android Software Development] Evan_Ferrao:
I haven't seen any cross flash of my particular device on Tab 4 forums of xda yet.
[Android Software Development] realbbb:
If you can flash stock; it does not sound like an odin issue. There must be something else that is different enough to stop a successful cross flash from the carrier branded firmware. I wish you luck on the search and encourage you to post on the device specific XDA threads. Once you find something that is compatible or a procedure; the patched odin will flash it.

Your problem is you are trying to flash a firmware version which is lower than what is on your phone (bootloader). You will need firmware with version 2 bootloader or higher.
[Android Software Development] Lexzy007:
Please will this work for sm-G935A I want to switch to G935U
[Android Software Development] billa:
Yes, use the patched version, extract the PIT file from the CSC file, add it into the PIT tab, add the rest of the 4-files, and under Options check the first 4 options (including Nand Erase). Make sure that the "U" firmware's 4th digit in its version number from right to left is equal or higher than what's already on your phone, if not then the flash will fail. This worked for me, in fact just did one an hour ago.

[Android Software Development] Peterepeat87:
I reckon it's a signature with a script to pull random cool strings from a db.

Everything I've read so far says downgrade isn't possible because of Samsung fuse or whatever it's called. Each new version sets a bit in a rom that can't be unset.

I wonder if it's possible to modify the bit in the binary to be flashed? Idk tho. Waaaay out of my realm of capability.

While I do not see the SRPT called out (like in other firmware that will not cross flash when SRPT1 != SRPT2), I do see that sam could still base blocking on what is there (NA != KOR (region), KX != VZW (carrier), KOR0 != USA0 (market)).

Hey, I am trying to use Australia unlocked firmware on my Samsung Galaxy S20 FE 5G (SM-G781B) which is Korea Unlocked in my New Zealand country and we don't have a New Zealand carrier firmware so the closest country is Australia to use. But I am getting a FAIL. Any help will be appreciated thanks!

Note: I am using the latest patched Odin from here.
[Android Software Development] ljgjm:
I got it working on my old laptop
[Android Software Development] iBowToAndroid:
Korean models end in N, not B. So if you look in the Settings, the actual model number probably shows as G781N. And you can't flash B firmware to an N model

I'm guessing Odin got hung up on "SetupConnection" previously - that's always a USB issue
[Android Software Development] DJDamaux:
Yes I know it ends in N I am using it right now and says SM-G781N. I was just wondering if I can change it to B because it's the only closest region for me that English (Australia). N is just all Korea but has a unlocked firmware which I guess is made for my "English country New Zealand" which I fine so dumb. This is the first time I have encounter this for this phone. Every other android phone I have was just easy to flash and made for my country.

That's what I am saying...
[Android Software Development] iBowToAndroid:
Well that's not how things work with Samsungs
[Android Software Development] DJDamaux:
Ok since I can't change the firmware to my country. Is there a way to change the firmware to mainly English?

The download mode and recovery is all in Korean language. But my device is set to English for reading and so.

I know it's from Korea and it's gonna be their language but is there a way to change it?
[Android Software Development] iBowToAndroid:
Why do you want to change the language of Recovery and Download? Those modes are not used during normal use of the device. What matters is the language that is shown during normal use of the phone

I've read mixed things here in the thread so I'm curious, I have a Samsung Galaxy A52s from the EUB region and I want to flash DBT stock onto it, because an update bricked my phone. I've never done anything in recovery mode/download mode to mod the phone or anything else.

Do I need the patched version of Odin or the vanilla one?

EDIT: Looks like I need patched but does this also apply if I want to flash stock so I retain my data?
[Android Software Development] realbbb:
Vanilla will only flash stock. Patched will flash either. Keep your data by a flash of the home firmware package.

I do not recall if anyone has successfully cross flashed the a52s. Do let us know.

Gas Lit
[Android Software Development] GabHM:
Issue is, that I don't know my CSC code - Samsung support can only tell me the region EUB, which has a lot of codes. Download mode and stock recovery mode don't tell me my CSC code. Just noticed, is that because I don't have my SIM inserted anymore?

I read that cross flashing a different CSC shouldn't be an issue, that's why I'm just going for DBT. I'm from Germany and that's why a non-carrier Germany version should work out for me I guess.

EDIT: Phone is bricked and won't boot after a regular software update on a non-rooted stock phone. So I can't boot to check my exact CSC

EDIT 2: Tried flashing with Odin and I still can't boot. Phone showed the android figure and "Erasing..." right after flashing even though I flashed with HOME_CSC. Is my data gone now or is this normal?
[Android Software Development] realbbb:
Flashing stock with home is a normal thing. Cross flashing with home is not. Often cross flashing with home will not startup correctly and requires the non home firmware package.

I would work on getting stock running again before attempting a cross flash. Sometimes even stock needs the non home to get things working again.

EDIT: Doesn't work without SIM aswell

Just want to make sure I'm doing this right.

My device is a s21 ultra G998U with CSC TMB. All I need to do is take the G998U1 full firmware with CSC XAA(of course same bit version), flash everything through your patched odin, then it should work. Right? No bootloader unlock or anything else necessary.
[Android Software Development] realbbb:
Correct. Do not use home version when cross flashing. Enjoy your phone without the carrier bloat!

TMB.. I recommend that you unlock the sim port with the proprietary t mobile app prior to flashing to u1.
