Grab your region's version, then flash via Odin.
I find it easier to not flash the latest version, but to an older version (4.1.1) just to make it feel "Stock-ier".

That looks like your baseband... Find the ART code on your box, the last three letters is your original CSC.

Perhaps in the east that is more than alight. But here if it's not the original CSC and there is no record of a service centre changing it you are screwed.

TMU is your CSC. But can't find any firmware, try FUS.
H3G is uk
I used this method to update to Oreo early - http://drippler.com/drip/official-sa...pass-safetynet
do I have to downgrade back to stock firmware/os to be able to get updates normally or will it just update over this one?

Firmware.
As for the CSC youll need to find OUT what yours is
but it should work the same as the guide you followed...
GLW is the Canadian CSC from what I see here.
di you remember where you got the phone or who the providor was?
You see, on BB110 people made us exe files where you plug the phone in click and it's automated. Android seems to be a lot different. What is a CSC and GLW? I really have no clue. I know I shouldn't have done this if I wasn't ready for it, but, I wanted to have the latest stuff.
keeps logging me out everytime I try and download the firmware. YAY. Delays and setback piss me right off.
Figured out my issue, How do I flash this patch/file/whatever it is. Over the current one?
EDIT: # hours to download unless I fork over 20 dollars. YAY, MORE BLOODY WAITING.

I think that's where you enter CSC code but it's been a while since I used it. A quick search online should help. CSC is Consumer Software Customization, basically a folder in the software that controls/sets specific features and settings for your region/carrier.
No worries if you flashed different firmware that changed your model number. When you flash stock it will change it back. U.S. and Canada Note 8s are essentially the same at a hardware level.
I bought this N9 from eBay, but what I didn't realize is it is based off from Malaysia Region and has a Malaysia Region Lock.
I don't live in Malaysia or its region but what's bothering is till now this device did not receive any pie beta OS update (OneUI). Am not sure if this possible but I want to get this device to US region (idk if that is the right word) so that I will get OS update whenever they release it for the US region. So there any way I can change the region restrictions without rooting and flashing a new ROM?
Device Info:
Model : SM-N960F/DS

While downloading the file refering to post#2, what should be the value for the region. I want it to be same as US Region. By the way I should tell you this, my phone is based on xynos processor. Will that is the same stock files for Odin..
if you just want change region for faster update, but you also know how to flash in odin, you can change csc to desired region then flash that region firmware. many thread about that in this forum.
any n960f firmware will work on any n960f, regardless of the region. idk the csc for US, but you can check this thread,

Update: 1
I was able to change csc in Q for our n960n and this is how i did:
I flashed Superstable Q rom and the Dev included the option during installation in aroma to chose a different csc, i keept using the rom for 2-3 days and didn't have any issues, but before returning to Pie i did tested Dr.ketan's Q rom rom and Alexndr's-devbase Q rom and in both cases i still had my csc.

Im opening this thread to find a solution on how to change the csc on note9 n960n in android 10.
Doing so in Android Pie was easy ( of course with help from this great community ).
there is a tool provided here called - Csc selector - which i used and it worked great ( for note8/note9/note10), some roms offer the option to chose during installation.
when i updated to android 10 it changes the csc i had, probably because Samsung made some changes so i guess we will have to wait until more csc are released with updating process still in the way.
i will post any news/tutorial i find here and hopefully you too.
Almighty bump for this frustrating problem. I too am on the incorrect CSC on Q...everything works so I just ignore it but I can't help but think I am not getting the reception I would otherwise be getting if all available bands were utilised. I am on n960 FDS and should be on XSA CSC but I'm on XSG.
I'm not sure there are even Android 10 roms available for XSA region code yet.

We might be near because Samsung keeps releasing android Q to more regions for n9 and s9 now started to get its update.
I'm not sure how they've done it but there is a fix if you are prepared to flash a non-stock rom or already have.
You can flash either Alexandr's Devbase or Zeus Rom beta from the zeus telegram group, and before flashing rename the rom zip to include your appropriate csc followed by _. Read first post of devbase for details, it worked a treat for me and I didn't even think XSA was available for Q roms yet.

that doesnt work for my device i have an n960n and the only supported csc are KOO, KTC, LG, SKC, i can change to one of those in alexandr's rom ( by the way i love that rom and i came back from it to pie because of this problem) but no to n960f csc's so i guess i will have to wait until there is a mod to change csc in android q.
thanks for your reply.
Maybe you can try with Samkey software, but it's not free.
Even I am in this boat, I downloaded an n960f rom and tried to flash the csc on my n960n.
And yeah it failed.
Wish it were an easier process.
I just want the random reboots to go away on q.

they offer only sim unlock, i didnt see in their web page that they can change phone model, your reply made me think if we could change the bootloader/model completely with a tool ( my friend has some of those he uses them to unlock/repair/flash phones).

No need to reset device to change csc if you already have a multi csc firmware for example OXM. Use phone info or something similar from play store to check.
I used samkey (purchased 2 credits from ebay for $5) and in a minute changed csc to THL
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Buy samkey credits from ebay (you need 2 to change csc) you get them in a form of a username and password
Download samkey from theit website
Connect N10+ to your pc with the cable you got with your phone
Open samkey, input username and password, input THL in the csc field and execute. (my first attempt failed with a server error the second one suceeded)

thanks for your input but this model of note 9 - n960n is made for Korea and i has only 4 csc - KOO/LG/KTC/SKC , these csc have limitations when used outside South Korea which is the case for me, because of this i have network issues so i want to change it to a n960f model or multi csc so i dont have those network limitations.
i changed my phones csc to multi csc with a flashable tool "csc selector" and i works great but this works only in PIE, samsung made some changes in Q and it doesnt work.
Oh, ok, didn't know the story about n960n.
I need to change too!

Can i change n9600n firmware to n960f ?
Please advice me, I am new to this kind of works, thanks in advance

If you mean N960N, Yes you can as i mentioned couple post ago.
You need to root your phone by following the instructions in note 9 guides forum, then go to note 9 rom development forum and choose the one you prefer.
Is there a way to download the firmware for these? I am looking at using odin to flash this demo model I got my hands on. Any help is appreciated
It's highly unlikely you will be able to do this. There is probably hardware differences and maybe even some hardware components omitted completely. I've previously heard about some demo smart watches not have GPS hardware in them for example.
I'd be surprised if you didn't get an error when attempting to flash commercial firmware.
I've provided firmware to someone before, who flashes it on demo models. I'd have to try and find the conversation though, as I don't recall the details offhand
