Hello,

Thanks to this XDA thread and some other sources I was able to compile a list of CSC codes that enable native call recording on Samsung ROMs. This is the list:

Indonesia (XID)

Vietnam (XXV)

Ukraine (SEK)

Israel (ILO)

India (INS)

Thailand (THL/CAM/MYM)

Egypt (EGY)

Bangladesh (BNG)

Laos (LAO)

Libya (LYS)

Nepal (NPL)

Sri Lanka (SLK)

Allergy (TMC/WTL)

Tunisia (TUN)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Youdoofus:
nice work! it wouldnt surprise me if the sim placed into the phone would make the phone lock to that sims CSC and disable it. Are you able to give it a try and see?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] bober10113:
u cant flash firmware of a single particular CSC when its part of multi csc firmware. ure sim will default to xyz specific csc.

there are ways to force or change csc. use search on xda.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] shahoom59:
You can add India (INS) to that list.

And you need the sim card of the particular country to get the CSC features. When the phone reboots after flashing the OXM firmware, the phone detects the sim card and it will ask for a reboot. Then you will have the CSC features of the country that sim card belong to. Later then the sim card can be switched back and the settings will remain even after reboot.

So does call recording work in Android 9 & 10 since it is disabled by default in Android 9 & 10 ????
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] h8Aramex:
On Samsung Note 9 (dual sim) N960F I tried the following roms:

Israel: Too old rom, haven't tried.

EGYPT: NOPE.

TUNIS: NOPE.

INDIA: NOPE.

SRI LANKA: NOPE.

If anyone has any tips on which region shall I try, hit me up...
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] ChoSmile:
Somebody knows any of Snapdragon CSCs (ACG, AIO, ATC, ATT,BST, CCT, CHA, GCF, LRA, SPR, TFN, TMB, TMK, USC, VMU, VZW, XAA, XAG, XAS) with call recording support?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] h8Aramex:
So I got call recording on my Note 9, Android 10! YAYYYY!

Well today I paid for SamKey so I could share my experience.

- Original region: XEH (EU/Hungary)

- Base firmware was the latest (March)

- Phone: Note 9 SM-N960F Dual-Sim, 128GB version, factory unlocked.

The process...

PART I: Flashing the base ROM.

- Use "SamFirm" tool to download the latest firmware for a region you want.

- Use Sammobile.com to see which region you need, what is your phone model, etc.

- I recommend using an SSD for this cause it's way faster to work with that in ODIN.

- Use the regular "CSC" file, not the HOME_CSC one.. this will wipe the phone, but it only worked for me this way.

- Once you installed the rom, just enable dev settings, enable ADB, allow your PC.

Part 2: SamKey.

- Bought credits on Samkey (hella expensive.)

- Removed SIM card.

- Flashed latest INDIA [INS] rom (supposedly has call recording).

- set up phone as per instructions, enabled ADB, opened SamKey.

- Changed region to INDIA [INS].

- Reboot, insert SIM.

- Call recording shows up.

My life is complete.

Ps.: First I posted a message saying it did NOT work, but turns out I wrote "IND" instead of INS in CSC field. lol.

Pps.: Changing CSC only costs 1 credit. You can find 3 credits on eBay if you can't afford the bulk option from the main site.

There is also "chimera tool" that supports new(er) phones.. you MIGHT need that one.. uh for me this worked.

I AM NOT ASSOCIATED WITH EITHER, I FOUND THEM TODAY, I DON'T CARE WHAT THEY ARE AS LONG AS THEY WORK.

My KNOX did NOT trip during the process. It's still 0x0.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] eetu1923:
Ok this is what i was looking for... im getting all the things needed to try this.. on the meantime, is there any downside on doing this? im going to try it on a SM.-N9600 from MExico ( where im currently at)..
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] h8Aramex:
I dunno, I am still installing my phone but I can't tell any difference so far...

maybe you don't even have to wipe, you could try that too in the name of science. :p

Also make sure to use a CSC that has call recording. India has it, that's for sure. Israel for example SUPPOSEDLY has it. But if you check Israel for Note 9 on Sammobile, you can see their updates lag behind a lot. I feel bad for the people of Israel... weird thing they get lagged so much. So anyway, check if you are flashing a newer or same version at least. No biggie if you mess up, ODIN will get stuck, you gotta reboot phone into ODIN, start over with a proper firmware pack.

Good luck everyone.

Ps.: Keep this low(ish)...? I realize we are on XDA, and sharing is caring, but honestly I don't know if Samsung will take this method out if it gets "out". Maybe I am just paranoid. Please Sammy if you read this, DO NOT REMOVE this feature. Thank you.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] eetu1923:
Well im getting this

Samsung Galaxy Note9 SM-N960F INS India N960FXXS5DTB6 firmware

from sammobile ( excrutiatingly slow) i hope i wont get any problems, is this the same Firm you flashed?

And yes i can try to do a flash without wiping just for the science. :)

Also clarify something to me, you had to use the samkey and pay the credits in order to unlock your phone? or is it needed just to change the region to INS after flashing? i ask this becuse my phone is already unlocked.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] h8Aramex:
- You really use Sammobile only to find out the CSC/Region code you want, and the phone model. Maybe you know both already. I didn't. So I went to Sammobile -> Firmware and checked. You don't need the site further.

- To get the firmware, use "SamFirm". It is a tool.

https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-tab-s/general/tool-samfirm-samsung-firmware-t2988647

Make sure "Decrypt automatically" is ticked, and "Check CRC32" is NOT ticked. (this is the default).

For my SM-N960F (Exynos, Dual SIM), I just wrote:

Model: SM-N960F

Region: INS

[CHECK UPDATE]

then

[DOWNLOAD]

- Flashing is really harmless. Can't really trip KNOX, can't do any harm.

- Yes, you must pay for SamKey. The main site has an expensive pack (15 credits), I got that, but ebay has like "pack of 3" keys and whatnot. Try to buy such a pack from a seller with good reputation. I'd just give you credits if I could but I don't think that's possible. I can send you credits apparently on the site. It says I can send you one a day. So make an account on SamKey, and send me your name in private. I'll send you 2-3 credits if you want.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] eetu1923:
Ok i got Samfirm tool installed, but if i put my model SM-N9600 and the INS region y get..

Checking firmware for SM-G9600/INS

Please Wait>>>>>

Checking firmware for SM-G9600/INS

Please Wait>>>>>

Error : Could not fetch info for SM-G9600/INS

Please check the input data.

I am still getting the frimware from sammobile though... do you think i can do it by manually flashing that firmware through ODIN?.

Ill create a Samkey handle and give you my name.. ill send you a PM..

Thanks you are so generous.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] h8Aramex:
1) You messed up the model number. :p

SM-G9600 is the "global name".

Your phone is.... "SM-G960F" for example.

You can check here: https://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_s9-8966.php

2) You can use Sammobile and SamFirm, they are the same thing. Just SamFirm is SO MUCH FASTER...

3) Okay, just send me whenever, not in a hurry lol. I want to do the CSC change for my friend's Note 10+, but that still leaves me with a lot of spare credits, don't worry.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] eetu1923:
well that is the model i get either on the About phone and everywhere else SM-N9600 on gsm arena it says SM-N9600/DS and on the back of the phone itself i can barely see but im sure it says SM-N9600/SS. so what to do next? should i get the SM-N960F file instead?

EDIT: by the way i sent you that PM or at least i think i did, i cant confirm ( not showing on my sent items).
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] h8Aramex:
- I am no expert, I'd say install a tool like this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.vndnguyen.phoneinfo&hl=en

- You can also install the "SamKey" tool (without paying) and it has this function called "Read phone info". That might also tell you. Again, you just install it, run it, and it uses ADB to tell you every little detail.

- Maybe even the ODIN Download mode also tells you...

I THINK you have the SM-N960F - if your phone is a global, dual SIM Exynos variant. But only if you have that. SM-N960U is the Snapdragon variant (USA). "SM-N9600/DS (LATAM, Brazil, China)".
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] eetu1923:
I donwloaded that app you told me.. this is the info...

Samsung

SM-N9600 /Galaxy NOte9

Device type: crownqltechn

country of origin Made in china

Date of fabrication: 2018-12-05

Knox warranty counter: 0x0

thenon the CSC code tab it says..

prodict ID: SM-N9600ZBMMXO

csc code of firmware: TPA

CSC Active code: MXO

CSC avaliable codes: CHO, COO, EON,MXO,PEO, TPA, ZTO; BVO, DOO, GTO, UPO, UYO

CSC country: MExico/MX

Mobile operator: 334020

not sure if the rest is relevant..

So it is a8gb/ 512gb ,Snapdragon variant for Mexico Made in china.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] eetu1923:
I managed to do it in a different way.

This was made with a binary 4 and a IUS Mexico firmware installed at the beggining of the process.

This is for a SM-9600 (SS) Note 9 SnapDragon 845 model.

Flash the china Open firmware N9600ZCU4DTB6_N9600CHC4DTB6_CHC

( you can flash TWRP and Root with magisk if you want right after flashing).

Then after the phone boots fully it will ask for a sim card, i used a Japanese Data only (non active) sim card) and it allowed me to get into the system.

After everything restored from my backups i found that Google, Playstore, Maps, youtube ( and some other Google apps) were not installed, im not sure if this is normal in this firmware or not but i had to download and install them manully from APKs.

So far almost everything is working and the Native Call recorder is functioning wonderfully.

As of right now the only thing its not working is the Dual Messenger feature, no matter what i do ( uninstall and re instal facebook, whatsapp, messenger) no app will show on the list to enable it.

I will probably create a different thread regarding all thi, but i wanted to let you know how i managed to enable de call recorder, and let everyone know that the china Open rom has it enabled, i was just lucky i had that sim card.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] rayhanahmedridoy:

H8ARAMEX, CAN YOU CONFIRM IF I CAN SWITCH N975U CSC WITH EXYNOS VARIENT THAT WOULD BE N975F i.e. ins csc with samkey??
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] яι¢αя∂σ:
Expanding on this, i've tested THL and ILO csc.

Both have call recording native in call app (as all above have) but some other options get disabled.

Some of the above CSC allow:

Call recording (all above)

Samsung pay (THL, INS, XXV)

Blood oxygenation (stress level) (ILO)

THL does not alow to measure stress / blood oxygenation in the samsung health app (at least not on the n960f (note 9) and on G965F (S9+).

ILO does have stress / blood oxygenation active.

If anyone have some more info that may be useful here, please post!

Warning, changing CSC will Factory Reset The Phone, so be carefull!

What i did was:

Download corresponding FW/CSC to the country i wanted to use (did not test flashing fw from one version and csc from another version as it may intorduce bugs and/or missing features)

Flash it with normal CSC with pit so it repartition phone (home_csc does not repartition phone memory)

This is what i did different:

As i don't have and wasn't willing to get a sim card from the country i needed, used a sim card called UASIM * but if you have a simcard from the country you want to activate the CSC, use it.

Leave the UASIM card in phone wile booting to initial setting. (or the country sim card you need to activate the needed CSC)

If UASIM card, just put the MCC & MNC and pin code (ex: ILO=42514; THL=52020; TUN=60501) phone will detect and activate csc.

If original country card just leave it. Phone will detect country of card and activate corresponding csc.
​

My guess is that if FW have MultiCSC and have included this countries features, simply factory format phone and boot with corresponding country card will activate the CSC of said card.

Rebooting phone with different card may ask if want to keep country related phone settings or want to change to new card CSC settings, and this will almost certainly factory reset phone, so pay attention and thread carefully!

Changing CSC and you will have to wait untill FW from that CSC is released.

As noted on this thread, ILO (Israel) FW is one of the least updated FW. BNG (Bangladesh), INS (India), SLK (Sri Lanka) are other less updated FW. Can't get any info on Algeria or Laos FW at least for note 9.

You can always force the update to new fw including diferent CSC but phone will be formatted even if using home_csc. Wile on settings if new diferent card is detected it will ask for change of csc or to leave it.

* (http://www.uasim.com/uasim/) this card will always ask for pin and the pin code used as pin is the MCC MNC (https://www.mcc-mnc.com/) of the country of choice.

** i have no affiliation with this card manufacture company but its a very useful tool for this type of operation.

Any updated info please, just post so we can gather the most info related to CSC available functions!

Take good care guys!

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] datfinedude:
Why don't you guys just download "Another Call Recorder- ACR" by NLL and call it a day. It has been working for me on my non-rooted device on Android 9 and 10. I have the Note 10+ (SM-N975U1) variant and my carrier is MetroPCS. I did flash the csc file from T-Mobile to get native video calling [You just have to make sure you use a firmware with the same baseband].

P.S. Get the "Call Recorder - ACR" by NLL from the Galaxy store and not the Play store. I believe that the difference is the "Unchained version" is on the galaxy store.

You must've found a magic combination. That app doesn't work on a T-Mo N960U. Same volume issues as all the other apps.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] snebojsa:
Same here, not working, 960F.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] O's:
I'm inclined to think there's no way on non-root. I've tried a dozen apps. Also, the Boldbeast recorder forums mention there's three possible ways: Your region/carrier supporting it already; using the right recorder settings on only some phone variants; and root.

If there were a real one-size-fits-all solution for non-root devices, it would be here already.

I'm thinking we're SOL without root.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] snebojsa:
I have multi CSC rom, maybe I will try to change CSC with Samkey, it cost about 4-5usd, but it's just couple of clicks and nothing is wiped.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] O's:
What model N9 do you have?

Since I have T-Mo firmware, a CSC change probably wouldn't fix me. Plus, I don't know if I can root a T-Mo N960U in the first place. Still trying to figure that out.

This is for the Note 10+ (n975u and n975u1). Not sure if this works for any other Samsung phones. I'm running the latest firmware N975U1UEU3CTE7.

P.s. Also works on the galaxy Note 8.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] snebojsa:
It surely not working.

You may think it's working if you try to record in quietly environment, room or apartment.

If you go outside or try to record in the car while you're driving, the other side is barely heard.

Tried with lot of different settings, it's always the same.

It costs 1 credit and nothing has wiped, i'm satisfied.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] MajinkenSword:
Can you provide detailed step-by-step process?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] snebojsa:
Go to ebay.com, search for samkey and buy some credits

After purchase you will receive mail with username and password for samkey

Go to samkey.org and download latest version of samkey software

Install samkey and log in with given credentials

Plug the phone, in the CSC field type THL and press CHANGE

Wait to finish, phone will restart automatically, and that's it, you will have native call recorder enabled in call settings, nothing wiped.

The quality of recordings is excellent now.

You may have some errors for the first time, just try again, I succeeded from the third time.

Good luck!
