[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] quietRiot94:
yeah the android 10 version method works still. Downgraded my note 20 Ultra 5G with android 11(1. Jan Patch) to Android 10(build No: N986BXXU1ATGI ) must be the Juli patch! Changed the csc with ChangeCSC Tool and after that flashed the newest Android 11 Firmware again via Odin (Build No: N986BXXS1CUA2)

My Device was branded on Vodafone.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers] dezborders:
I have found if you configure a couple of things first, CSC change still works during firmware flash.

1. enable OEM Unlock (in developer options)

2. disable FIND MY PHONE, & logout of Samsung AND Google accounts

3. Go into downloader mode and flash XEO or BTU FW (use CSC file not CSC_HOME)

4. Boot up device with your SIM Card installed.

5. During setup, phone will reboot and change to the correct CSC to match the firmware flashed.

Be aware thet your data partition wil be wiped so backup everything before you start.

Also, note the prduct CSC will not be changed but SIM1/SIM2/eSIM will be changed as expected.

Finally, you will get the correct OTA upgrades automatically for the flashed FW CSC (BTU in my case)

Good luck.

[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] qman66:
Would I just download the old zip file from johnwu github and install it on Magisk manager?
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] Lughnasadh:
That depends. If you are on Android 11, 20.4 won't work. You'll need to use 21.2. If you are on Android 10, you can flash the old zip in TWRP.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] qman66:
I'm on 10. Don't have twrp. Couldn't get that set up. It can't be done through the manager?
[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] Lughnasadh:
I don't exactly remember, but I don't think there is an option in Manager to flash a zip, only to download a zip, patch a boot image or direct install.

EDIT: You can also try to find the json for 20.4 on Github and then set a custom channel using that and then do a direct install.

[OnePlus 8 Questions & Answers] Calkulin:
Anyone have a solution for removing or disabling a magisk module that is causing a bootloop on OOS11 without TWRP? I have tried decompiling a stock boot.img and inserting a .disable_magisk file into the overlay.d folder in ramdisk like another thread suggested but that didn't seem to work and using ADB while it's doing the bootloop just reverts the changes on the next boot, so does anyone have a solution for this issue that is not wiping the data partition?
[OnePlus 8 Questions & Answers] dlads:
Here you go mate

Magisk module failure.

This works for any magisk module failure.

1. Power off your phone by holding the power button, then turn it back on.

2. As your phone gets to the bootloader warning screen, press and hold volume up and down and continue to hold until the phone shows the boot animation.

3. You'll boot to safe mode, simply reboot once more.

4. On next boot all your magisk modules will be disabled, remove the problematic module and re-enable the functional ones.

I've got a bunch of threads in the pro section you could utilize for other things, magisk, payload dumper etc

can I flash BTU SM-G781B on XSG SM-G781B with Odin? will I lose any functionality? will I get regular BTU ota updates?
[Samsung Galaxy S20 FE Guides, News, & Discussion] BredzProh:
You may flash it and no functionality will be lost. However, you will still be getting XSG updates in the future.

If you wish to change the CSC too and haven't updated to the January 2021 patch yet, please check my other tutorial:

[Samsung Galaxy S20 FE Guides, News, & Discussion] kk12002:
thanks for the info. so the basic CSC is hard coded and cannot be changed or is there a way to get BTU otas? I'm only doing this to get the latest ota asap.

also would u recommend DBT or BTU.. are both multi CSC? I Thanks again
[Samsung Galaxy S20 FE Guides, News, & Discussion] BredzProh:
Yes you are doing it right. If you want to get the latest OTA manually, you flash it every time, having XSG.

If you want to always be the first to get the latest OTA, I would suggest DBT.

DBT and BTU are the same regarding updates, but there are a lot of cases when DBT is the first to get them.

I have a bricked SD/SIM slot after an OTA update, can I flash the firmware via ODIN and retain all data on the phone?
[Samsung Galaxy S20 FE Guides, News, & Discussion] MrTaffy:
Alright, did this 2 weeks ago when I reverted to stock ROM. this time I used sammobile to download the firmware (firmware version ILO - As it was on original bootloader). Fortunately, it worked and after relocking the bootloader, about 95% of the features came back to work, this includes:

* Play Certificate

* OTA Updates

* Most of Samsung features including some Knox protected features working fine again

* CSC features including call recording work fine

* Banking apps including wallet work fine again

* Galaxy wearable, private share, fine my device worked fine no matter the tripped knox.

The only issues were on some more knox resicted apps such Samsung health, samsung pass, secure folder. but anyways I don't use them mainly so I don't really care about losing them and I can always find alternatives for them, Google apps are excellent choice. I won't throw away my device just because those tiny amount of apps won't work. As long my phone is fine I'm happy.

Would consider to keep the device with stock ROM unless newer custom ROM of android 14 comes (and a one that is actually for daily use lol)

If you're using a tool supplied by intelligence agencies, then you're obviously well aware that "exploit" is not the same thing as "virus". Just because a tool identifies a piece of software as containing an "exploit" does not automatically mean that it's also a "virus"
