It's not the U1 build anymore, I used Odin to flash over to U build back in May because I needed WiFi calling

---------- Post added at 07:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:19 PM ----------

All three phone are on AT&T prepaid service and yes they all do have the bloatware now after flashing with Odin. I just disable them, doesn't bother me.

They also always said "already up to date" until today. I just checked the S10e and now it's also receiving the updates and it was still on February security patch
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
1. It may have had the February security patch, but SD9 was released in April.

2. SF6 only started being released in the past couple weeks. OTAs are always staged, so it's possible that it wasn't your turn to get the update until now - especially if AT&T prioritized their own phones first, before U1 models
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] petersk2:
Whatever the case may be I'm glad, I got my first ever OTA on mine, the S10e received about 3 updates and my wife's S10+ received I think like 5 updates back to back today

What's the latest VZW firmware (PDA, CSS, and Phone), so I can manually find them in SamFirm? Why do you need to select "Manual", instead of it finding it automatically?

Edit: I think I found it...?

PDA: G975USQU2ASF6

CDC: G975UOYN2ASF6

Phone: G975USQU2ASF6

Can someone confirm?
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] yeltrah123:
Yes that is correct.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
I have no idea why Manual entry is required, in order to find VZW firmware. But yes, that's the correct info to pull the latest build, as of right now
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] nowerlater:
With Frija, you do not have to do manual entry for VZW

Sprint finally updated the S10 and S10+ today with build 2ASG8 which tells me the build was compiled this month but comes with the June security patch. Night mode and QR scanner is included.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Limeybastard:
wonder if firmware rebranding is included with it.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] WhoIsJohnGalt1979:
Not sure what changes were incorporated in System Update 5 for 975U on VZW. Received and installed the update 15 minutes back. Still shows as having the June security patch. G975USQU2ASG8
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
I've seen a few different sites mentioned/linked that basically pull all the newest versions from SamFirm and link to them. Is that basically what that "Frija" is?

It's unfortunate that 1) they take so long to push out an update that was compiled this month and 2) that it's still a month behind on security
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] SkandaH:

Frija is yet another client for Samsung FOTA servers.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
Ahh okay. It's funny that they say SamFirm is deprecated, when it still works fine lol
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] zdrucker:
So since G975USQU2ASG8 came out for Verizon yesterday, would it be okay to flash that firmware with the CCT CSC, since the VZW CSC isn't available to download anywhere?
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
Isn't available anywhere? You're kidding, right...? Please read the thread.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] zdrucker:
Sorry - I mean't anywhere directly (as in Frija OR SamFirm)... I got them now though. But still, my question still stands.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
I can't tell what your actual question is. You *can* get VZW firmware from both Frija and SamFirm, so there's no reason to mix and match CSCs or anything else
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] zdrucker:
Okay - so...

The latest firmware available specifically for VZW from Frija is ASF6. As we all know - ASG8 is now out. Instead of using VZW for the CSC in Frija, CCT can be used, which pulls the ASG8 update. My question is whether or not I could use that.

Since asking, I actually went ahead and flashed and all is well. I received a few more apps than normal that would typically be for Comcast, but easily deleted. If there IS a way to pull the ASG8 update that was specifically directed at VZW through either SamFirm or Frija, please do tell - I couldn't find it.

I don't think you realized that I was talking about ASG8 in my original post, #571.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
1. I wasn't aware that VZW SG8 isn't available via SamFirm/Frija yet. It is available for Sprint - SPR

2. I think you're confusing CSC with USERDATA. The CSC files are the exact same within each build, no matter which region (carrier) firmware you're downloading. You can md5 hash 2 different ones, and they'll match. USERDATA is where the bloat and carrier customizations reside

3. If you're already on U firmware with VZW bloat, then you don't need to flash USERDATA in order to update. All you need is the base 4 files. And since Sprint got the same build, you can grab SG8 by using region SPR.

4. I do have access to the VZW SG8 USERDATA, so i'll upload that now to my AFH since it's not available via the firmware tools yet.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] zdrucker:
Perfectly clear and concise. Thank you!
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] zdrucker:
Now the VZW specific firmware seems to be named ASGB???
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] whiskeytangofoxtrot7:
HELP

I updated to ASF7 from firmware.science, but cant seem to find anywhere to get off ASF7 and back to my Verizon original ASGB. Any thoughts?
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
Hmmm yep now there appears to be another update lol

Ummm, SamFirm or Frija, as has been stated countless times in this thread?
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] gizzyman:
I used odin 3.13, I dont know if there is a newer one or not but it worked fine, its not patched or anything, just standard odin

I had less bloat using the verizon firmware, I bought the U1 and it had crap I could not remove, after flashing to verizon I was able to delete all the bloat
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
That doesn't make any sense. By definition, U firmware should have everything that U1 does, plus all the carrier bloat. Whether an app can be uninstalled or not shouldn't be any different between U and U1 builds
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] gizzyman:
I thought I would get no bloat when I got the unlocked version, I had several apps, crapbook being the main one I cannot stand and wont have on my phone and I was not able to delete it, I could disable it but not delete...after putting on verizon, ALL the boat i do not want is gone, crapbook was there, but verizon was nice enough to let me delete it along with that linkedin thing they are putting on phones now.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
Hmmm interesting. I wonder if VZW has their own bloat agreement with FB, such as that it gets packaged along with their apps. Regardless, disabling as basically as good as deleting nowadays, as the space you'd gain by deleting is inconsequential

[MENTION=3163377]iBowToAndroid[/MENTION] i know u mentioned imthe features from carrier wont work unless on u firm... by any chance is that the case for wifi calling and video call? Even if i call for provisioning? Sorry for the noob question... (really want u1 but have the video call at least)
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
I don't even own an S10, so I'm not the person to ask. Even so, another person's experience might not be the same as yours. You'll just have to flash it and see what works

Thanks for the firmwares, I picked up my Unlocked S10+ (U1 model) from bestbuy yesterday and flashed the ATT firmware with the userdata etc (U model firmware) and now I have all the AT&T features working perfectly, and also received an OTA update too!

Great! Hit that Thanks button for me if you can :)
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] trebills:
I flashed the -U1 firmware on my Verizon S10plus, When setting up I get an "Android Setup Close" error after entering my Google credentials. To bypass that I have to Factory Reset ans skip the google setup initially.

Also, when checking for Software updates I get a " Registration Failed" error. Will this get OTA updates?
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
You don't have to skip anything. You just need to use the non HOME CSC, which is required any time you're changing firmwares
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] beethoven1854:
Hey guys,

I bought my S10 Plus unlocked version (SM-G975U1) from Samsung directly. After reading this thread, it seems that I will need to flash my phone from G975U1 to G975U if I want to get the VoLTE and Wifi Calling features unlocked. I am using AT&T prepaid and I am 100% sure my AT&T prepaid is able to activate VoLTE and Wifi Calling. I did a test by switching the SIM card to my work phone (an AT&T iPhone 8) and I can use VoLTE and Wifi Calling with the iPhone 8, but as soon as I switch my SIM card back to the S10 Plus, the VoLTE and Wifi Calling is gone.

Can you guys help me to confirm if flashing G975U1 to G975U is what I need to do in order to unlock VoLTE and Wifi Calling?

Also, howcome I see some people that are on G975U and is trying to go to G975U1? What is the benefits of that? What is so great about G975U1 that you are willing to lose VoLTE and Wifi Calling?

Thanks for your help!

Edit: So one of the benefits of G975U1 is it doesn't have carrier bloatware. But still, I am willing to live with it and get VoLTE and Wifi Calling.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] trebills:
I did that. It eventually worked. The google sign in was having problems on their end I think. Also, the software update through samsung was having issues too. Another Samsung phone of mine wasn't phoning home to check updates either. Today they both are. All good here
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
Great!
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] kossiewossie:
This is basically what I do with every samsung phone I have owned.

I buy the unlocked and Flash the U firmware to my unlocked phone, as like you i'm with AT&T and I need Wifi Calling since I live in the hills with no signal, Im prepaid I can confirm wifi calling works, as for VoLTE I haven't paid attention.

Keep the AT&T sim in your phone, and flash the U firmware including the userdata for ATT, and make sure to use (CSC_OMC_OYN)

NOT

(HOME_CSC_OMC_OYN) for the CSC, as this will repartition the phone and make it compatible with OTA updates from AT&T and any future firmware flashing done via Odin.

Once the the flash is done, it will format the phone, setup it up and you should have all the features available on the phone, If you haven any issues enabling them sometimes calling AT&T to add your new phone (The IMEI sometimes needs to be enabled on AT&T end) and you should be good to go, Iv done this since S8/S9/note 9/S10+ I did need to call AT&T once in the past for the S8.

Carry Bloat can be disabled with apps like Package Disabler Pro etc.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] beethoven1854:
Thank you so much! I just finished flashing my phone to the U firmware. I can now use VoLTE and WiFi calling! It does come with some bloatware but I can deal with them no problem. It is interesting how AT&T is showing LTE logo as a "5G E" logo, but there is no way it is 5G. It is a marketing scam..

I confirmed VoLTE and WiFi calling works for me by doing the following tests:

1. Enable Airplane mode and then enable WiFi (This cuts off LTE signal so it only uses WiFi connection). I made a call and it went through. This proves it is calling using WiFi.

2. Disable Airplane mode and then disable WiFi (This cuts off WiFi signal and make sure it only uses LTE). I made a call and it went through. The logo stays on "5G E" during the call. This proves it is calling using LTE.

You mentioned I need to use (CSC_OMC_OYN) and not (HOME_CSC_OMC_OYN). I already finished the firmware flash and I don't remember which one I have selected. Is there a way that I can tell if I flashed the (CSC_OMC_OYN)? Also, what exactly is the difference between (CSC_OMC_OYN) and (HOME_CSC_OMC_OYN)?

Thanks!

Update: I did some research and CSC means Consumer Software Customization: It is specific to geographical region and carriers. It contains the software packages specific to that region, carrier branding and APN setting. I hope I didn't flash the wrong CSC.

Update 2: Ok. So the difference between (CSC_OMC_OYN) and (HOME_CSC_OMC_OYN) is that (CSC_OMC_OYN) will wipe your phone during the flash, and (HOME_CSC_OMC_OYN) will keep your data. I am sure I picked (CSC_OMC_OYN) because my phone got reset after the flash. I think I should probably only pick (HOME_CSC_OMC_OYN) if I am upgrading the same firmware to a higher version.

My new question is this: Do I still get OTA updates afterwards or I will have to flash any new updates using Odin myself going forward?
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] kossiewossie:
Yeh that's correct initially you use (CSC_OMC_OYN) as you want then phone to be wiped and formatted for the U firmware (it also repartitions the phone I believe), and afterwards you can use the (HOME_CSC_OMC_OYN) in future Odin Updates without wiping data, and Yes you should get OTA updates, As I already received one (G975UQU1ASBA) and it installed fine. :good:

Glad you got the features working! :highfive:

you can also grab OTA updates including beta ones from https://firmware.science/

but those will format the phone

.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] beethoven1854:
Thanks again! Right now I am on G975USQU1ASAT. I believe the G975UQU1ASBA that you mentioned is the newest update. I don't see the update on my phone yet though. I am guessing it is just slower for AT&T?
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] MudMan551:
Hey guys,

I've purchased a S10+ SMG975U1ZKAX unlocked and have been trying to flash it for Verizon. The phone boots and runs fine after flashing but it's missing the Verizon features, especially the WiFi calling.

I'm using Odin Odin3 v3.13.1 with the following process.

1) boot in recovery - Wipe

2) reboot bootloader

3) Connect USB cable

4) Open Odin and add the BL,AP,CP, CSC and userdata

5) Start flash

I've tried both the SAT and SBA files.

G975U_SBA_1 firmware

USERDATA_VZW_G975USQU1ASBA_CL15445662_QB22242641_REV00_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.

I've done this several with no success in getting the Verizon features. I'm on a prepaid Verizon account.

Any ideas?

I will tell you that I want to:

1- Turn it on and off without the AT&T logo appearing

2- Disappear all AT&T apps

3- I am not in the United States, I have read comments about missing WiFi calls, Night mode, etc. The latter also if I am outside the US?

I talked to someone at Samsung through chat, and after beating around the bush regarding no updates on the unlocked firmware since the May security update, I was told this:

"I have checked with my Supervisor. We are expecting new security patch update very soon. May be within couple of days."

Hopefully this is true and not just an attempt to blow me off.

At the same time, someone started this thread on the Samsung forums about it. Maybe anyone here upset about the delay can post there and see if Samsung even notices, if they even pay attention to their own forums? https://us.community.samsung.com/t5/Galaxy-S10/US-Unlocked-S10-Security-Update/m-p/767187#M29222
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] WhoIsJohnGalt1979:
[MENTION=3163377]iBowToAndroid[/MENTION] - Quick question for you. Strictly from a content of the firmware perspective irrespective of the naming convention, is there any difference in the firmware of U1 and U if am not flashing the user data in the U firmware considering that the security patch is the same in the U and U1 firmware. I know it's a hypothetical scenario but I believe would it be safe to imagine that Samsung is primarily pushing the same updates across the board just that the source releasing it is different, cellular company in case of U and Samsung in case of U1. Bootloader and everything remaining smiliar.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
Good question actually - I'm not 100% sure what the user-visible differences are between the two. I really don't know what you would wind up with if you were on U1 and flashed U sans USERDATA, for example.

There seems to be two builds that are pretty much the same except for a letter. I just checked an update using Frija and got build "G975USQS2ASGB" for Verizon but articles are also stating there's a build rolling out via OTA that's "G975USQU2ASGB" I'm wondering what's the difference.
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] iBowToAndroid:
I remember seeing someone post about what the difference is between SQU and SQS, but don't remember the details right now. But each build will only be one or the other. SG8 was the update right before SGB, so that's probably what the articles mentioned
[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Guides, News, & Discussion] jwarrior319:
The S before the Bootloader version means its a Security update. U means its a feature update. So the S one is just the latest security patch and the U one includes the features added in latest update from Samsung.

I never double zip anything

WinRAR's settings might not be set to allow for the high decompression that's needed. I compress pretty tightly using 7-zip, for bandwidth and storage space considerations. The default Windows extractor definitely can't handle it, but WinRAR can - in most cases. It might not be able to do it if the settings aren't set correctly. If you're having any extraction issues, just install and use 7-zip instead
