[Samsung Galaxy A70 Guides, News, & Discussion] jdjta:
Netherlands, CSC is PHN (Netherlands, unbranded) and multi-CSC for my A70 is OXM.
[Samsung Galaxy A70 Guides, News, & Discussion] Zohaibzx:
Any noticable improvements other than call quality?
[Samsung Galaxy A70 Guides, News, & Discussion] fenie:
I flashed it with Odin on my German A70. Everything is running smoothly. But it stayed with DBT even though I flashed a PHN. :confused:
[Samsung Galaxy A70 Guides, News, & Discussion] bodomfan:
How is the update
[Samsung Galaxy A70 Guides, News, & Discussion] wahabmalik03314:
Which region get's the quickest updates? I want to flash a different firmware.
[Samsung Galaxy A70 Guides, News, & Discussion] fenie:
At the moment, the Netherlands are the furthest.

(PHN) unbranded.

Also there are already the improvements in the telephony included.

Last update was July 16.

[Samsung Galaxy A70 Guides, News, & Discussion] mordenk:

Still waiting,even put in an 02 sim who have the update and still no luck

[Samsung Galaxy A70 Guides, News, & Discussion] Maystro:
is it completely safe to change my firmware to faster update region ?
[Samsung Galaxy A70 Guides, News, & Discussion] Nizamani:
Yes, I did that today, I'm from Pakistan and I flashed Netherlands firmware.
[Samsung Galaxy A70 Guides, News, & Discussion] wahabmalik03314:
can anyone here answer these few naive questions?

1) Will flashing a new firmware cause loss of data or settings? or will it start from where I left?

2) what is this deal about "Multi-CSC" can I flash any firmware I want or do I have to pay attention to something else too related to CSC and stuff?

3) will changing my firmware to a quicker region result in quicker updates ?

The A50 received a new update with August security patch. The update made the fingerprint scanner really fast and accurate on par with the competition. Hopefully the A70 receives same treatment soon.

July security patch update has arrived in Pakistan.
[Samsung Galaxy A70 Guides, News, & Discussion] mordenk:
July update finally this morning on the MN
[Samsung Galaxy A70 Guides, News, & Discussion] 106IFA:
I received the update this morning for the A705MN, but it wasn't worth the wait.

The camera is still subpar when compared to the resolution of pics taken with the Gcam app. Postedit: Night mode does make a difference for dark rooms and settings.

The super steady mode, which I got from the update before teh current one, is STILL grainy. I don't understand why implementing software stabilization would kill the picture quality of a video.

---------- Post added at 10:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:33 PM ----------

I hope so too. Here's a before and after video of the A50 in-screen finger print scanner in use.

Honestly I think they are preparing for Android 10 or new security patch, because since 1 August there has been 0 update for country based update
[Samsung Galaxy A70 Guides, News, & Discussion] HKShooter:
I don't think there will be Android 10 update so soon as Samsung usually pushes big updates very late comparing to other brands, esp. for mid rangers.
[Samsung Galaxy A70 Guides, News, & Discussion] camalger:
Hi, is it normal my A70 still on may security patch?!! Everytime I check for updates in the settings it says "your software is up to date", I've tried with smart switch but no update either. Please help
[Samsung Galaxy A70 Guides, News, & Discussion] SIRKRA:
they're preparing A70S firmware, this year A series was rushed out half baked to contrast chinese infinite showout of models. there are already even A71 voices around! A90 is not out yet and already voices of A91 too!
[Samsung Galaxy A70 Guides, News, & Discussion] alaa96:
honestly if the galaxy a90 will cost 750 $ it will not do well it will be a missed opportunity for samsung to compete with mid range flagship killers ... i could buy an s10e with better cameras qhd display better speakers wireless charging more ram and storage and the list goes on for the same money i was expecting a more realistic pricing
[Samsung Galaxy A70 Guides, News, & Discussion] Sreedev the bro:
Yeah man. Samsung really pushing it. Even the A70's fingerprint sensor and camera are not fully baked. Software updates should make things better but again this takes time.
[Samsung Galaxy A70 Guides, News, & Discussion] alaa96:
lets hope software fixes that because these two things are my only problems with this device everything else is spot on

galaxy a70 nfc payment

Hello. My galaxy A70, SM-A705FN after root can't working on nfc payment and I'm sad..Maybe somebody have some solusion here?
[Samsung Galaxy A70 Guides, News, & Discussion] y.erenbektas:
Once you trip KNOX, there's no turning back...
[Samsung Galaxy A70 Guides, News, & Discussion] Antonio426:
really I can't do something? Knox is like physical demage or just is it programer function..? So no working anymore...
[Samsung Galaxy A70 Guides, News, & Discussion] y.erenbektas:
knox's trigger is something that you can see in download mode. if the thing next to knox says 0x0, you're ok. but if it says 0x1, it's tripped. And it's like HIV. You have to live with that.

knox is like a security program which is embedded into your phone and gets triggered if you flash a non-official/patched firmware etc. no way to take it back. but it onlly affects your warranty about operation system's problem. I mean, if your headphone jack is broken, they can't say "oh, you rooted this device". But you will never be able to use samsung's pay/pass/health (and maybe more) apps. You also cant use netflix if your bootloader is unlocked (but you can fix it for netflix if you revert this).

If you ask me, I would suggest you not to worry. That is not the end of the world.
[Samsung Galaxy A70 Guides, News, & Discussion] Antonio426:
YEAH.."is not the end of the world" but I can't use for payment..if I know early about Knox I never buy this ****..Android 9,Knox..What more in future...you spend your money for what? I feel like in prison

My galaxy A70 after root have still module NFC and if I take some credit card hi scanning and reading but I can't add my credit card to google pay. Seems like module NFC works. For example in shop some card reader have connection with my phone but failed because I don't have add my credit card from bank. In Magisk SafetyNet-green (ok)--ctsProfile:true, basicIntegrity:true. So maybe is solution to fix it? I be grateful if somebody have some instruction to do this. Or maybe better use app not from google pay? Some bank have mobile app with hca payment maybe there NFC works..?

[Samsung Galaxy A70 Guides, News, & Discussion] y.erenbektas:
If it says 0x1, that means KNOX is tripped. You can use your NFC, of course. But because of 'security risks' they block paying with NFC. I am not sure if you can use any other service than Samsung pay (because it's not availible in my country) but I think that's not possible when you are running official Samsung Firmware.

Banks' own NFC payment methods may be availible if they have their own payment applications. The bank I use doesn't provide such service but you can try.

The performance of Touch screen has been improved

The performance of Fingerprint recognition has been improved

The security of your device has been improved.
[Samsung Galaxy A70 Guides, News, & Discussion] wahabmalik03314:
were there any improvements with the august update?
[Samsung Galaxy A70 Guides, News, & Discussion] andrewilley:
No one forced you to root your device. Every single root instruction that I've seen for the last few generations of Samsung devices clearly warns you that rooting WILL trip Knox, and there is no going back. Secure software will simply not run on an unsecured device.

You just needed to decide which is more important to you, security or root.

I have a Canadian version that is still on May patch (I'm afraid to update for now because I've had bad experiences in the past with security patches introducing bugs, including from the old Google One program and you can't roll back unless you are bootloader unlocked which this device isn't). What happened that the experience was not seamless for you?

---------- Post added at 05:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:11 PM ----------

Must be, select the app and mark it "hide" if it isn't already, I have a HTC on Marshmallow that is rooted with Magisk and bootloader unlocked, and it works just fine with Google Pay. The app that doesn't work on that device is the stupid bus transit card reloading app, but Google Pay works.. go figure. Transit app probably crawls the list of apps on the device looking for what is installed and then refuses to work.

Now you have CSC: OXM (Ukraine) or your old CSC:eek:JM (TurkeY)?
[Samsung Galaxy A70 Guides, News, & Discussion] y.erenbektas:
I didnt manually wipe. but flashing csc wipes, and home csc doesnt wipe as I know. I think you should back up your everything and flash home csc. and then tell us if it worked without wiping. That's the only way to know I think.

Changing the DPI does not give anything, upgrade Samsung screen - nothing changes.

The icons are disproportionately large for the screen.

How to undo an update? How do you get back to your previous look?
