Just got it to work now!!! I had to replace it with the NEW Csc!!!:)

Well i can also confirm that OTA Updates are working perfectly for me and its also downloading the NEW Firmware update which correspond to the NEW Csc i have flashed
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] mmmalas:
correct me if I am wrong, but I think changing CSC will affect which frequency bands are active, which degrade data and phone service.

can anyone confirm this?

Download the appropriate COMBINATION version

Given the fact that installing COMBINATION files is fictional, consider the following to select the appropriate COMBINATION file.

Take the phone to the download mode. (Volume Down + Home + Power)

Remember the highest number in RP SWREW.

Now, in order to be able to install the COMBINATION file on your device, select the COMBINATION file in the RP download mode.

For example, if RP is in Mode 2 download, select COMBINATION file whose RP is like the example below

A520FXXU 2 ARA4

Otherwise you will get an error on the phone screen like SV REV.CHECK FAIL DEVICE:2.BINARY: 1

I changed the CSC using this guide which worked. However, I don't pass the safety net anymore. The error i get is CTS profile mismatch.

I also have the Oem unlock turned on.

Can somebody test if safety net breaks due to CSC change?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] laneyyy:
Just tested mine then and it passed. Shouldn't be related to the CSC change
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] rajil.s:
I can confirm it is the OEM unlock which caused the safety net to fail. After I locked the bootloader my safety net passed.

its impossible. your device is unrootable. so you can't manually edit it.

plus your device cannot be flashed with a firmware from the region you want since its from annother device model.( n960F)

Can this method be used to update my already modified N960u with Chinese CSC?

I have a US Unlocked note 9 N960u which I bought in China. The sellers apparently changed it to a Chinese Csc, which I don't mind as I am still in China. But because of this the firmware is stuck on the firmware it was set up on (February patch). i want to update it. I want to know if this method might allow me to update the US L firmware and also use an updated Chinese CSC.

Hi. my device model number is SM-N960FZBDXSG. In boxwares shell there is no combination file for this model number. And it is same updato.com, too. which files i can download.?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] bober10113:
your model is N960F.

its the most common model.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] perabh:
A little late reply but worth it for me.

Main reason why I want to change CSC lies in fact that for some CSC, native call recording is enabled. By my knowledge, that applies to following:

Bangladesh (BNG)

Thailand (CAM/MYM/THL)

Egypt (EGY)

Israel (ILO)

Laos (LAO)

Libya (LYS)

Nepal (NPL)

Sri Lanka (SLK)

Allergy (TMC/WTL)

Tunisia (TUN)

Vietnam (XXV)

In short, if you change your CSC to any of those, you will have built-in call recording, even on Android 9. And best of all,

without rooting or unlocking OEM, so warranty is intact.

After you've change CSC to your desire, you can insert any SIM you like, and it will not disable this functionality.

Also, you don't have to install stock ROM for changed CSC. You can install any stock ROM without restriction. For example, I've changed CSC to EGY, and then install regular SEE (South East European) stock ROM, and it is working like a charm.

Check: Settings > About Phone > Software information > Service provider SW ver. and there you can see OXM_??? (where ??? is changed version of CSC)

After all that, I've inserted SIM from my provider, and call recording is still active, and working flawlessly.

Thanks to the author for this topic!

EDIT: just to mentioned, I've done this on N960F.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] adrian5800:
Does anyone know if there is a combination file for the N960F for RP SWREV 4 and a download link?

My device has

AP:N960FXXS4CSJ1

CP:N960FXXS4CSJ1

CSC:N960FOXM4CSJ1

I have tried to downgrade the firmware to N960FXXS3CSI5 with Odin to use the N960FXXU3ASF1 combination file but it errored out due to it (presumably) being a different bootloader version. Is it a case of wait until someone uploads U4 to the internets?

Go to your phone and open keypad

Dial *#272*Your IMEI NUMBER#

Check if this works. If work you can select INS and install. Remember you will loose your data so backup before doing

If above option doesn't work then follow the op post.

Download combination file from shared above N960FXXU4ASJ2

Download latest firmware of INS CSC.

rest are same as the instructions of op.

1st of all read carefully the op post. Use official USB cable. Change option should be selected green tik sign. Then read procedure and accordingly write AT and send ASCII.

THEN if error comes don't worry follow procedure .

Will be ok

All will need max 10 min

Im slightly confused about the combination files... I have N960F with VAU CSC (Vodafone Australia) with latest firmware CSJ1 November Security patch... How do i determine which combination file is the right one? of the ones available in the OP link, none of them seem to match up with any firmware versions for my device??

The only combination files i can find are ARG5, ARI1, ASF1. If someone could explain this for me please, that would be much appreciated.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] androidloveRs3104:
To determine you need to check the binary number.

Check after N960FXXS4.... here 4 is binary. So you need combination file which have same N960FXXU4... Binary 4.

Otherwise you will get error. You can't downgrade binary number.

For N960FXXS4CSJ1 download the file posted few posts back with binary 4.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] LTKred:
Oh I see! that makes more sense now then, I was looking at the wrong place in the file names. So just to clarify, its this one right?: N960FXXU4ASJ2

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] androidloveRs3104:
So your binary is 3.

You need a combination file with binary 3.

You can find here for SM-N960F.

https://www.hardreset.info/articles/samsung-combination-firmware/

Download combination with U3 and follow op instructions.

You also need to download full firmware of the same csc you wanna change to.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] elliwigy:
if u need to ask probably wont help you much.. but typically people change it to match the carrier they are on to ensure they get all the bells and whistles offered by that carrier such as wifi calling or other features.. or in some cases on usa models they might switch to XAA to have a debloated rom free of carrier bloatware since xaa is the samsung unlocked csc for usa so it doesnt install carrier specific apps

csc changes back to carrier after inserting sim hence no call recording

INS/XEH, XEH/TMH is my actual csc detail.

I did everything as per post 1 and it worked but as soon as i inserted my sim the csc changed as per above.

it.means i have call record in the options but does nothing and when i am in a call the small cassette icon ia not there so basically i cannot record calls.

I asume i should keep the INS/INS csc to record calls but how can i do that? is there a way to preserve or force INS csc despite inserted non indoan sim?

not multi csc firmware maybe?

thanks for ur help in advance

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] androidloveRs3104:
The first INS is the csc you are changing. After first / the two is because of your dual SIM model. That will be changing according to the Sim card you inserted. That you cannot keep unchanged. INS is a multi csc. So Evey time you change sim card from different csc your phone will boot up to the csc of the inserted sim.

Now for call recording I guess your mobile operator is blocking this option. I am not sure. You can try using one sim. In that case your 2nd Sim csc should be ins by default.

Anyway I think for INS CSC you cannot keep Sim csc unchanged.

---------- Post added at 10:51 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:45 AM ----------

Try again. And read carefully the op post again. Do accordingly. Cause this should work. And don't forget to remove your sim card untill first boot up.

[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] mcsilvio:
Hello,

I've had this phone connected to HiSuite before, but I've since formatted my harddrive and have had to reinstall it. Now, they do not connect.

After trouble shooting the basic stuff, I ended up looking at the Vendor ID and Product ID of the device. The PID is 170E. When I scanned the driverinfo in the HiSuite installation, it shows that it supports 1701 through 170C but not higher (for the 1700s). So this looks like a good reason why the driver won't connect properly (it shows up as a USB Shared Device in device manager).

I let HiSuite update itself so I am current. Has anyone seen this?
