I'm new to this so please bear with me.

Found this helpful and working, https://www.droidviews.com/how-to-change-csc-in-samsung-galaxy-phones/

It's free and only requires patience and time.

So here it goes:

1. Unlock your bootloader (easy for Exynos, just go to developer mode and enable OEM unlocking followed by download mode and long press of volume plus + button)

2. Flash twrp using odin. Follow this guide here. Works perfectly https://xdaforums.com/t/recovery-unofficial-twrp-for-galaxy-s21-exynos.4241869/

3. Flash the latest magisk.zip using twrp. https://magiskapp.com/zip/ (the phone will take a little longer to boot Be patient! Open the magisk app once booted. You'll be greeted with a popup just click on install and reboot then you'll have properly working magisk with su rights.)

4. Install any root explorer and set permissions from R/O to R/W. And then head to this path "/efi/imei/" and edit the file *mps_code.dat* . (Replace it with the country code that you want. In my case "INU") once done save the file. Here it's done if you're okay with having just one sim for your specified csc.

5. If you want both the sims to have the same csc code then head to "/system/csc/" folder and replace the csc in the file named as *sales_code.dat* once done save the file and reboot the phone.

6. you should now have your specified csc in settings/about/software information.

7. Now you can go ahead and flash your phone with a new firmware using odin. Do not try to reset or relock the bootloader without flashing. It will not work. Software mismatch errors will show.

8. Once done with flashing your phone will boot normally and you can set it up and start using . For my case samsung pay and call recording wasn't working. As the phone was purchased in UAE.

Here are some screenshots 🙂.

Looking for some similar info.

I have an S21 5g, singapore rom. I wanted to unlock all the LTE bands, or find a CSC that matches my countries bands, as the there is no Canadian CSC for the exynos variant that I can find.

Anyone know how if there is a CSC code, or rom version for exynos that unlocks all the bands? or lets me select the ones I want?

Folks

I know a few people (me included) have bought a few protectors which were a bit small for the GW4 classic (basically they were GW3 size). I can confirm the Ringke bezel is the correct size and does not have any gaps at the side.

Regards
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] jtOttawa:
Thanks, spangelaregreat. I actually bought the ones that Ringke says are for the first gen Galaxy Watch (because they are considerably cheaper, and have a style I like) - and they fit just fine too. *Edit*: Just to clarify, I am referring to the Ringke bezel rings.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] steveroysston:
I recently bought a screen protector for my Galaxy Watch4 from Gadgetshieldz which fits perfectly. It is an edge-to-edge protector which protects my watch from scratches. What I like is that till now there are only minute scratches that are not that visible.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3] ross71:
Has anyone here ordered an unlocked Z flip 3 from 5g directly from Samsung and currently using it on AT&T in the US? I am trying to confirm that the phone will be able to access AT&T's 5g network. I've seen conflicting info out there. I don't want to buy it if it won't get 5g.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3] uicnren:
Works fine on my wifes flip 3, and also for the record on my fold 3.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3] ross71:
Thanks for the info because I prefer the unlocked version over the one with the carrier garbage on it :)
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3] d0x360:
Hopefully your 5g is better than Verizon's. I get significantly better speeds on 4g. The most I've seen on a 5g speed test (and ive done many from many locations) is 7Mbps and I'm in an excellent coverage area for Verizon... although when it comes to 5g you can't tell where coverage is because the map combines it with 4g.

Verizon also combines (I'm probably saying this wrong) multiple 4g data streams together and calls it 5g and from my experience it's terrible.

I actually asked Verizon if there was a sim card I could get that would just allow for 4g since there is no disable 5g setting on the Verizon version but there is on every other carrier...uhg.

Anyways they said yes, I got 2 new sims and... I still saw 5g and I still have the wonderful battery drain from the phone constantly trying to get a 5g signal. Terrible.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3] kowalskitg:
I have this exact same setup and I don't have 5g either, logo doesn't show up or anything. I went to the att store and asked about a sim card and they said that shouldn't matter, I had them look up my plan and apparently I don't have a 5g plan (I'm using a line on my dad's plan). It would be nice, but I've accepted it for now. I've gotten pretty decent battery life from the start and I think it might be because I don't use 5g
[Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3] Zirox:
I have the Samsung unlocked model and am with At&t. When am out and about at the top I do see it says 5G but in Miami we have no 5G enable yet but it does seem like it would get 5G once that enable. Once in a while i do loose that 5G signal and it drops down to LTE but for like a few seconds only than it jumps back to the 5G signal.

I flashed this ROM, it is for UK customers. I didn't find this ROM any significant advantage over the HTC ROM. HTC has build in Home and Touchflo and this ROM didn't include those so it has more storage memory.

It certainly has different graphics and interface is before the touch cube invented.
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Questions & Answe] GhostFella:
Hello,

As the title says, I have an issue with A5 2017 that has Android 8? and current software is A520FXXUGCTKA.

Girlfriend used it before the new phone she got, transferred most of the data, SIM and SD card but A5 suddenly went into some kind of lock.

"Your device was reset recently and it needs PIN to be unlocked. You can't use fingerprint until you unlock it with PIN" - something along those lines.

Is it possible to unlock or flash some recovery to bypass that lock? She already tried a ton of different pins and still can't unlock it - only makes the timer go up.

The phone is not stolen or anything like that. My girlfriend genuinely needs leftover data from there to transfer to new phone.

Hope I am not breaking any rules and if you have any more questions or need more info, feel free to ask me.
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Questions & Answe] blackhawk:
Someone may have a better Plan.

The data may be lost if not.

Meh... always redundantly backup critical data to at least 2 hdds that are physically and electronically isolated from each other and the PC.
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Questions & Answe] GhostFella:
Your backup plan is easier said then done when a person is not that knowledgeable in tech realm.

She didn't care about backups but she always kept pictures and small amounts of data on a laptop.

Anyway, would you recommend any of the "unlocker apps" you linked?
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Questions & Answe] blackhawk:
I was completely computer illiterate in 2004.

Completely Android stupid in 2014. You identify what you need to do and go from there. If you play with what you need to learn, you will learn it.

One needs to learn about hardware as well to make good choices.

There are no shortcuts, it takes time.

One of the first priorities should be data backup. That's one of the main reasons to use a computer, to catalog and store data.

There are only two types of computer users, ones that have lost data, and those that will.

Being of the former group I can safely say that you can never have too many backup hdds and drives.

As for unlocker apps, no clue. I have done everything I can to avoid that unpleasant situation.
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Questions & Answe] GhostFella:
You are completely lost in helping people aren't you?

The point and main question of the post was "(if possible) how to recover data or remove pin lock from [model] phone".

If you wish to reply, please keep on the subject and main question as I am not interested in how YOU got literate in computers.
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Questions & Answe] blackhawk:
Really? I think the data is already lost.

The reason you're in this situation is because you choose to be. Actions or lack of, have consequences.

Most things can't be fixed after they're broke.

Was trying to show you how not to become the definition of insane. Past vs future.

Sound familiar?

Flashing a Custom ROM always is a bit risky, IMO.
[OPPO Find X3 Pro] kibulon:
Recent reviews of Android 12 have been enticing me to check back to current changes. Personally, I enjoy Androids (nearly) full customizable & unlockable ecosystem, but the thought of being invasive by customized setups has always haunted me.

I wouldn’t describe myself as paranoid, but with interest in personal privacy protection, especially when it comes to the use of files and location sharing. As a full time Google Suite user, I’m strongly relying on Googles’ Apps and suitable solutions, across private and work.

As we see with the new Android 12 a high priority is placed on Privacy. A brand new Privacy Dashboard app, which is similar to iOS 15, reports which apps are utilizing personal information through sensors on the device. Based on these new (or partly new) implementations, I came across OPPO’s new ColorOS 12 based on Android 12, which seems to be the fastest OEM to catch up on this.

What do we know already? ColorOS 12 comes with a 100% Android Privacy Feature integration, to manage private data and features, including

Privacy Dashboard

Users can now see the type of data that is being accessed by different apps at a glance in one dashboard. OPPO, too, will be hosting this feature, with clear charts showing data and feature permissions, allowing you to see and control which apps have been extracting your data.

Microphone and Camera Indicators

With apps becoming incessantly intrusive, ColorOS 12 will rectify the situation by giving indicators if any app is using the phone’s camera or mic. A flashing icon will be displayed on the status bar to tell you which permission is being accessed by the app.

Microphone and Camera toggles

You can also instantly turn off apps permission to camera and microphone with a single tap, barricading your hardware against any future forced entry attempt via Quick Settings option.

Approximate Location

Next to the previous options of location settings by choosing between “While using the app”, “Only this time” and “Deny” you can provide apps now also an approximate location to hide your exact whereabouts.

Anti-Peeping Notification

A so far ColorOS only feature, previously named Smart Spying Prevention, should help to prevent privacy, or in this case notification content. An AI-enhanced Smart Sensor, recognizes if there’s another person watching your screen and hides content of pop up messages, probably pretty cool in public places.

All in all Android 12 sounds very promising to me. Next to all these features I am hoping that continuous software- and security upgrades will be dropped to ensure ongoing security. I’m keeping my fingers crossed, hoping that Android will do the trick and will keep you updated about my experience with OPPO and ColorOS 12.

What are your thoughts on this?
[OPPO Find X3 Pro] blackhawk:
As far as I'm concerned Android 11 and 12 are dead meat. A bad Apple... 🤮🤮🤢

If you're careful with your configuration, load only trusted apps, run a firewall and don't to stupid things Android 9 is pretty secure and far more usable.

Android 10 is somewhat less usable, but runs well.

Android 11 is a bloody nightmare. Uses excessive resources and cpu cycles. Constant redundant access popups.

A creepy big sister of a hog. Android is in a high G flat spin, as their altitude sink rate approaches a blur all they do is firewall the throttle indents to the full afterburner position🤣

The impending crash is inevitable☠☠☠

The irony being that Google is the biggest data miner and manipulator on the planet.

With Google you're not the customer... you are the product.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blackhawk:
Watch some teardown vids.

It's an LCD display right? Do Not allow alcohol *or any solvents near the display. They can poison and destroy it!!!

Generally heat and careful prying with plastic picks are how it's done. Take your time.

Verify the correct method and have the right tools for the job.

Understand ESD protocols and practices if disassembling the components ie display, mobo.

Out of circuit they are suspectable to ESD damage.

At the very least make sure the room humidity is 50% or higher. A earth grounded ESD mat and wrist strap are best.

*with AMOLED displays you can use anhydrous isopropyl alcohol to make it easier to break the seal adhesive. You don't have this option. LCDs are very sensitive to solvent poisoning. Their edges aren't sealed as they need to be able to equalize to outside air pressure, they use a semipermeable membrane.

There is an app for a big coffee chain that offers a free coffee on first time use.

I'm wondering how to stop it from detecting I have previously used the app.

From their privacy policy they state:

What's the best way to change device identifiers on a rooted phone?
[Android General] Oswald Boelcke:
I'm using XPrivacyLua [XPL] (including all non-free pro features) for this kind of requirement. However, the use of XPL not only requires the device to be rooted but also the use of Xposed or similar.

Thanks I got it installed.

So I understand XPrivacyLua would show the coffee chain app a fake device ID.

Is it possible to change the fake device ID shown to coffee app ?
