I have a Samsung S22 (SM-901B/DS) which I bought directly from Samsung's UK website. The CP and AP are both S901BXXS2AVDB and the CSC is S901BOXM2AVDB. There seems to be 2 different versions, CSC: BTB and CSC: BTE. I wanted to root my device, so was trying to find out which firmware I should download.

So I did a bit of research and not even people on the Samsung Forum seemed to be able to provide the answer (to someone else with the same question). I wasn't able to find any mention of any difference anywhere else online, but I did notice the BTB and BTE firmwares seem to be exactly the same file. They have the same MD5 hash, same number of downloads and exact upload date and time.:

So my question is - if they're identical files why bother to list two different CSC identifiers? Anyone have any ideas? I've come to the conclusion that it won't matter which one I download, but I just don't get the point of having two different CSCs...

Ahh interesting, thank you very much! I have to admit I thought these were referring to unlocked phones, but I guess not, as I'm not on the BT network. But that's super useful info, thanks again! It's really interesting. Did you download the firmwares and then look at them in a text editor?
[Samsung Galaxy S22] yakapa40:
yes i can extract all CSC informations form firmwares

Hello, I'm facing this problem from many years in my phone, i can't plug in my mate 10 to any pc, it always says usb not recognized,

all drivers installed correcly with hisuite , my cable usb is new,

i changed today the USB charging port of the phone at Huawei care service, and i reset factory the phone , still same problem.

I'm still having the same stock rom on the device,

is the "usb not recognized" problem can be a software problem in the phone? thank you for your experience.
[Windows 11] GalaxyA325G:
I'll try to help you but I'm not an expert, and yet I've had EVERY problem you seem to be speaking about.

a. I have had broken USB ports

b. I have had broken USB cables

c. I have had the USB drivers not install on Windows

etc.

Given I've had some of the same problems, I feel for you, so my first advice is to simply give up on USB for everything that you can.

Specifically, if you can turn on USB debugging and Wireless debugging in the Developer options, you can operate the phone over Wi-Fi using the Windows monitor, keyboard and mouse as shown in my screenshots below.

You don't need anything installed on Android to use these FOSS solutions on Windows to operate the entire phone over Wi-Fi as of Android 12 (which eliminated the need for an initial USB connection to establish the Wi-Fi connection).

In summary, I have had similar problems with USB where I've given up on USB and switched to operating Android over Wi-Fi and even mounting the entire Android file system as a Windows drive letter over Wi-Fi using free software.

a. adb

b. scrcpy

c. vysor

d. webdav

[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] arwarburg:
I just got the Galaxy watch yesterday and trying to set up a data plan for it through Verizon. Does anyone have an idea if that's possible with the OnePlus 9 pro phone? Verizon tech support said it's not possible, but I have a feeling that it can be done. Please let me know if you have any suggestions for me.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Village_Idiot:
If it is LTE and is compatible with Verizon's network, then yes. It would be a separate data only line on your account. You need to talk to Verizon's sales support not tech support.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] theawsomeguy15:
I haven't checked. Still im 99% sure Verizon offers esim. What company DOESNT offer esim in 2022?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] tech_head:
Verizon does not offer a stand alone plan for the GW4. They did for the Active 1 and Active 2.

With the GW4 they only support "number share". To use number share you must have a Verizon phone.

Same situation here. Have a GW4 and a OnePlus 9 Pro and cannot use the LTE in the watch.

There is no technical reason why the GW4 won't do standalone. There is also no reason why a OnePlus 9 Pro can't do number share.

The decision were made by bean counters.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Village_Idiot:
Are you a Verizon customer? I am. You have to add a line, it is a data only line. I know this because I just checked with Verizon.

If the OP's watch is compatible with Verizon's LTE, all he needs to do is add a line to his account for the watch. He has to talk a sales rep, not a tech support rep.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] tech_head:
I have been a Verizon customer since it was called GTEMobilnet (look it up).

You are right all you do is add a line and specify that line for "number share". They will not allow a standalone plan for a Galaxy Watch 4.

Number share does not work for a OnePlus 9 Pro. I have been down this road with Verizon multiple times when the watch was released. I have the exact problem that OP has.

It is not solvable unless Verizon changes it's policy for the Galaxy Watch.

Repeat after me; "It is not possible right now and may never be."

You can also look at reddit and see how frustrating it is to others.

I bought a LTE Watch4 when a local Metro rep told me they could activate it for $10 per month. Went to the same Metro location and was told by a different rep that they can't do anything esim. What plans are available for these in the US?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Village_Idiot:
Obviously, one of them is incorrect. As far as their systems are concerned, eSIM will work. It is the initial setup and provisioning that is a little different. I would talk to the first one you talked to. He or she seems to know the process. The other one is either misinformed, or doesn't know how to do the initial setup. You could also talk to the manager of that store. Finally, you could call Metro's customer support and see what they say.

Here is an article with a little more info that may help.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Sergio PC:
Alright guys:

Myself as plenty of you fellas are probably still seeking for a quick, light and fast solution for locking your Jewels.

Believe me I have tried every locking app that has been uploaded and they all worked great and thanks to all members that made them........

I finally came to the conclusion that the best way to lock the Jewel is with the famous Hold Down End Key. But holding down the damm end key for 3 seconds every time is not really nice.

Even though I believe it has some major positive points compared to other locking apps such as:

-Very lite, comes OEM in Windows.

-It is the real all round lock, NO hard key can remove it.

-You save space and mem by not using a third party app.

Easy Solution:

-Add a shortcut to your start menu or your programs list. No need to hold down the end key.

-Or add it to a soft key on home screen.

I provide the .exe attached, I extracted this from my device so I dont know if it works on all devices. But we all have the same .exe file in the Windows directory.

Hope this helps some one.

Greetings.:)

PS: I was looking for that terrible grey background image that apears when you want to unlock the device to change it for something cooler, any ideas? Thanks.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Driskol:
The skin for the endkey is in windows folder.

Copy entire windows folder to your PC, and looks for the images related to endkey. Sorry but i cant remember the names right now :P

And maybe ull find some more images to skin more programs like the dialer, etc...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Sergio PC:
Yes, im aware, all the image files are in windows.

But I dont have time to search :p (dammm job)

Thanks anyways.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Davey101:
Yes good idea to use the standard WM lock. It would be considered a really good locking solution if it wasn't for the stupid, bloated HTC dialer with its big answer and reject buttons. The standard WM dialer works better with the standard lock because the incoming call notification is much more difficult to accidentally press. :)

Even better, if you use the standard WM (bubble popup) volume control then you can still use the volume up and down buttons with the device locked. :D

You can also assign Endkey.exe to the left softkey, that way you can use the same softkey to lock and unlock the device.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] hamish909:
is there any way to change the holding the key time to something shorter than 3 seconds?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Sergio PC:
Not that i know of.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] k4rb0nd0c:
Hello guys, I have a rooted my phone a year ago but I'd like to unroot it, basically to access bank apps again 😅

The problem is that I don't know how to proceed to do that, I've checked a bunch of videos and threads on XDA, so I've tried many solutions but nothing's working for the moment 😢

I've tried to flash a stock ROM but Odin's stuck at "SetupConnection" and then it shows "<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)"

I don't really know what to do now so any help would be much appreciated

If you need infos of the device :

Model number : SM-G950U

Baseband : G950USQU8ATG1

Thanks in advance for you answers 🙏
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] Baka Tenshi:
Even a bit of searching won't help now but since...

crDroid doesn't have the CORRECT Dolby Atmos module needed, which effectively requires MIUI...

Xiaomi.eu still has few concerning bugs for real life (ringtone cannot be changed, for instance)...

I read something about Pixel Extended being problematic enough to brick someone's previous Poco F3...

I flashed the stock ROM again and tried to debloat it, to a success I'm proud of, but of course, SafetyNet complains about unlocked bootloaders. Except here's the problem: Locking the bootloader with a debloated stock ROM is an effective hardbrick, right?

If not, I may as well lock it, right? Assuming I will never update MIUI that is......or it's Universal Android Debloater to the rescue...

If yes, this leaves me with two paths:

Clean all and lock this time, as in reflash the stock ROM again, but with the bootloader locked, but let a Pi-Hole handle the adblocking

Stay on a custom MIUI ROM for the duration of the device, without the bugs, assuming it's SafetyNet-OK (I'd ask someone to test MIUI Pulse Extended 13 with a secondary device first)

But I'm asking this for those who rather need everything working as intended, including a SafetyNet

CTS TRUE

, which means stock ROM AND locked bootloader:

Will a Pi-Hole work for those CTS TRUE who want to block the ads in Xiaomi's own system apps? Or that's it and custom ROMs all the way?

Explaining what a Pi-Hole is is beyond the scope of the forums I believe, let alone this device's forum, but tl;dr I'm not giving up the fight for a proper Atmos, no ads and my games running properly AND SafetyNet OK, even if it means a discrete Raspberry Pi handling this mess of a "MIUI chaos" instead of a custom ROM.

Trying to debloat the stock is an option if it works with locked bootloaders, but I'm not sure if that will trip SafetyNet, since I didn't dare relock it to check. Though few searches imply locked-bootloader debloat and SafetyNet STILL OK, not sure if BASIC only or CTS TRUE. But this brings me to the Pi-Hole part again...

Or I should grab a Sony Xperia 1 IV at this point? (ahead of time)
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] blasev:
I once use stock miui (locked) then debloat, lastly using blokada for all the adblock that I need. Use persintent vpn mode to make sure always on adblock and choose xiaomi ad block on blokada option
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] cyanGalaxy:
Hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!!!111

I use Xiaomi.eu Custom ROM (Stable, MIUI 13, Android 12).

I use AdAway to block ads system-wide. (Available on F-Droid!)

And I use Magisk + Magisk Module "Universal SafetyNet Fix" for Root, Mods and passing SafetyNet.

I use Xiaomi.eu because Dolby Atmos and MIUI Camera are also important to me.

So... you don't have to lock the bootloader. You CAN pass SafetyNet!

You might have to clear data of Google Play Store & Google Play Services.

If "Netflix" shows up, SafetyNet is passing.

But if you do lock your bootloader, you should be careful and factory reset, and only debloat AFTER the bootloader-lock.

BTW, here's proof that SafetyNet works. This will also work on many other Custom ROMs:

[Moto Edge 30 Pro] Therazorsedge:
Hi, if you can enjoy putting this on your phone you Will be glad to have freely more autonomy on your phone, also, less heat that you will see in the same moment that you apply it, and, what is better, you will be able to have a lot more battery Avoiding being dependent of the charging and you can use your very well "heat efficient" phone with their polymer case which made a "sandwich" having it the cpu backed every time that a girl text you on tinder or stuff or, you put on a game to play.

What it does :

- Tweaks the Cpu to have less heat as well as more performance, enables You to choose what's better for you, in four options.

WHY I need this:

Apple have their iphone with 6 cores instead of 8. Their cores are: "two cortex X2 rebranded" and four low energy cores. And, they use only one program (iOS) and above them they run "complements" of the program, called "apps". Based on this, you can have FOUR different browsers on your iOS device that are essentially the same (WebKit) with a skin and some functionality. Avoiding you to have options. Likely better than that. So, you don't need power. Because you are not using it. Since everything runs fast because it's pre-loaded with this iOS, android developers paid by companies put a lot of cpu and Gpu power on your android phone to OVERPOWER that iOS devices. And that, comes at cost of battery.

So, in order to have the same functionality as before, and the same power level of apple, when you cut down the power of s processor you will have the same app opening/closing speed of apps as well as functions but, with a lot of more battery. Maybe you see one of tho "stutters" but that aren't granted, and you will have less heat also.

So, this module created by @yc9959 works very well letting you choose from four options to fine tweak your cpu. Install should be through magisk.

【Preset Performance Mode】

Caton powersave: Large performance limit, suitable for users who do not require high fluency

Balanced balance: Moderate performance limit, suitable for daily mobile phone

Power consumption performance: approximately equal to no performance limit, suitable for tablet daily life

[Google Pixel 6a] BalooRJ:
Hello all,

I read online that Verizon and AT&T would be carrying the 5G mmwave version of the Pixel 6a only. Anyone know if it is possible to purchase this phone outright from a carrier with bootloader unlocked? I have no interest in getting one of these phones without OEM unlocking enabled, but I don't want to miss out on features either. Thank you.
[Google Pixel 6a] rester555:
From a carrier no, you can't get an unlocked phone. You most likely will have to buy it from the google store. Saying that, if you load the Android 13 load for the pixel 6a, c-band 5G and mmWave 5g should be available for it I believe. Unless they switched the samsung modem chip to a different one from the 6/6 pro to the 6a.
[Google Pixel 6a] bobby janow:
You can't buy any phone with a bootloader unlocked. I presume you mean bootloader unlockable, i.e. OEM switch active and not grayed out. Forget Verizon completely but I'm not sure about ATT. Verizon charges $100 more for a technology that is dubious at best at this point and ATT is about $20 more. If you consider it a feature that you will use you'll have to buy the device from one or the other. Personally I don't care about mmWave and I have Verizon as a carrier. There is no way I'd give up being able to unlock the bootloader even though I don't unlock it any longer. But I want the option and I've been know to flip the switch before I install an update or some other beta just so I can roll back albeit with a full device wipe.

You can buy an unlocked version from Google without 5G mmWave or from BB for about the same price. Check with ATT see if the device is carrier unlocked and bootloader unlockable or wait for someone to buy one from ATT and come here to see if there is a bypass for the OEM switch. As I said take Verizon off your radar there is no way.

edit: Verizon is $499 only $50 more and it seems like the ATT version is the same $449 price. I'm still not sure is the ATT version is unlockable though and if it for certain has the mmWave tech in it. Perhaps someone with more knowledge of ATT could chime in.
[Google Pixel 6a] traman124:
You could probably buy the ATT version outright to get an mmWave variant (not the VZW; it can't be BL unlocked).

[Google Pixel 6 Pro] rester555:
Ever since we have received the pixel 6 pro update to turn on c-band 5G, Verizon has updated their map from a 5G Ultra wide millimeter wave map with a very small footprint with everything else called 5G Nationwide or 4G LTE to a two-layer map of 5G Nationwide and 5G Ultra wide band (this includes 5g mm wave and c-band) for most cities that have 5G.

I have been using cellmapper and network info lite to record the bands for about two and a half months in Phoenix, AZ and the surrounding areas. The c-band rollout was a pretty small footprint at first and is slowly being rolled out around the freeways and surrounding city centers. The further you go away from the freeways or city centers, the more you have a combination of 4G LTE and 5G Nationwide (essentially 4g band B7, B13, and B66) with spotty 5g ultra wideband (band N77). Yet here is a map on Verizon's 5g footprint of Phoenix, AZ. I wish Verizon was honest. Verizon map

Thankfully third party maps show the footprints better based on data analytics from people like us. 3rd part map I found this on a Google search and compared it to my saved mapping profiles. They are pretty spot on.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] LLStarks:
Need to keep the carriers accountable. I'm surprised that Phoenix doesn't have much on Cellmapper for n77 and NSA trails.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Lughnasadh:

[Google Pixel 6 Pro] cpufrost:

Following those maps is like following a political ad. And too, they both have a lot in common that is they lie like a rug and get away with it.
