Hey guys,

It's been a Long (LONG) time since I flashed anything via Odin and have long forgotten the "rules" about flashing from carrier branded to non branded. I want to flash my N9 from TNZ (Spark NZ) to the Oceanic XSA non-branded ROM, my carrier is worse than T-Mobile/AT&T for update tardiness due to their wanting to "test" (aka molest it with a wallpaper and boot logo) the firmware first.

So my Real question here(s) is Can I from TNZ to XSA - and will doing so upset Android Pay.

I'm quite prepared to wipe it clean if necessary so not worried about that. Just want some Pie cos i'm Hangry.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] t-shock:
Hi

I own a branded N960FD (comes with COS CSC which is included in the ODX multi-CSC) and I had no issues flashing the OXM firmware and thus de-branding my phone. Just make sure that you use the .pit file in the Odin. This file can be found in the CSC.tar.md5 (NOT home-CSC)

If you are stuck into a bootloop (to be more specific, instead of having a blue led, you may have a green one) after flashing the OXM firmware, just force reboot the device

It may upset Samsung Pay, VoLTE and WiFi calling, but Android Pay will work just fine.

You should be able to flash an XSA ROM.

Sent from my SM-N960F
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] m2geek:
There is no samsung pay here in NZ, nor do we have VoLTE or WiFi calling yet that I know of.

Would you suggest flashing the wipe file instead of the non-wipe csc?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] MeltdownSpectre:
Since you're coming from a carrier branded ROM, you don't have the choice of flashing non-wipe.

You'll have to flash the wipe file.

Once you're on XSA, then you can use the non wipe CSC when upgrading.

Figured as much.

Will I have to flash updates via Odin in future? They'll come OTA surely?

(I used to know all this - but it's been So long and much has changed, sorry for 20 questions)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] MeltdownSpectre:
Actually I just checked, and TNZ is part of the same CSC base as XSA.

So flashing XSA may not change your CSC. It'll still show TNZ, but you'll have Pie and all the new stuff.

If this build (CSA2) is released for TNZ eventually down the line, you'll get OTAs.

If not, you'll have to Odin flash the newer builds as they're released.

OH, do you recommend taking the SIM out while doing it?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] MeltdownSpectre:
That might change your CSC to XSA (if you're flashing an XSA firmware).

Not necessarily a bad thing. Choice is entirely yours.

No that's not required for stock ROM flashing.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] jaylence:
We can't really tell. But if UK's current build is CSA2, there's a chance CSA7 will be released as well.

But to be sure, I suggest you stay on CSA2 and wait for the next update.

Guys I have installed the German DBT CSA2 here in Greece and with the Greek sim card inside it has been formatted to EUR.

Although, I didn't get the new CSA7 with OTA update.

What should I do now?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] henklbr:
It's correct you didn't receive CSA7 via OTA, because CSA2 (your current firmware) was never released in Greece...

You need to flash the complete firmware CSA7 for EUR, or you can use the UPDATE.ZIP CSA2->CSA7 (posted in this thread).

When on CSA7, you'll get OTA's again for EUR.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Murali_ch21:
Hi all, for those who still worry about using Odin I would like to share on how i updated my device...

I'm from Singapore where still official pie version haven't released. So i changed my csc code to INS and device got formatted and installed INS VERSION. Device prompted for FOTA updates with pie(one UI). I download and installed.

Later prompted saying new sim found so I chosen my local sim card. Device got reset and installed XSP csc with service provider SW ver: XSP/XSP,INS/XSP.

so far all going well smoother and faster... except Samsung pay showing status with coming soon.

Now currently running csa7 version using update zip from this post.

IMPORTANT NOTE : PLEASE BACKUP YOUR DATA. ALL YOUR DATA WILL BE GONE AS DEVICE WILL BE RESET TWICE. 1ST WHEN YOU CHANGE THE CSC CODE, 2ND WHEN CHOOSING YOUR LOCAL SIM CARD.

I sincerely thank [MENTION=1586120]henklbr[/MENTION] for this thread and providing lots of information for various questions asked by different people.

Hey guys, hitting a brick wall here trying to upgrade to pie. Singapore purchased from Singapore. CSC = XSP so running OXM firmware.

I changed the CSC via the *#1234# method to BTU. Tried OTA update no joy. AP= ARK3, so couldn't update to ARL3. Do I have to wait until Singapore release update for ARK3? I have seen some people trying to downgrade from ARK3 > ARK2 and end up screwing it up and having to go back to Samsung to reflash again. Any way around this?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] jaylence:
You don't need to undego the pain of downgrading.

You can always Odin flash the BTU Pie directly.

Btw, the reason you're not getting BTU OTA (even with BTU CSC) is because your build is ARK3, which wasn't released for BTU.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] flashflash:
OK thanks! I assumed that I couldn't Odin flash directly from ARK3 and it needed to be ARK2. BTW- Is there Odin for Mac? If so, is safe to use? Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] jaylence:
I think someone has posted pictures of odin working on mac in this thread.

Btw, if you still want to push through on receving the Pie Update via OTA, your CSC must be INS (India) since ARK3 was released for India and has now Pie update.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] flashflash:
Many thanks buddy, really appreciate your help. For some reason *1234# method of changing the CSC doesn't work anymore, is there another way to change to INS without Odin?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] jaylence:
*#1234# does not change your CSC. It just displays your Software infomation (AP, CP, CSC)

Can you confirm in Settings >> About phone >> Software Information >> Service Provider SW ver., if it says BTU?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] flashflash:
Sorry was *#272*IMEI number #

BTU/BTU, BTU/XSP
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] jaylence:
You can have it working again by factory reset (with Singapore sim) as it will restore your CSC to XSP.

Then change your CSC to INS so you'll be able to receive the ARL4 OTA (oreo) then CSA2 OTA (Pie)

But this method will require you to undergo multiple factory reset just to end up with BTU CSC running on Pie.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] flashflash:
OK, thanks. Sadly I don't have a Singapore Sim, so I will have to try the Odin route. Many thanks for all your help.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] jaylence:
Yes. Odin is your best option. It's easier and you have the option to keep all your files by using HOME_CSC_.
