[ Q] Changing CSC on S24 FE, flashing with Odin

[HēiLángXD]

Has anyone managed to flash SLK firmware on any other non South Asian S24 FE device? Unlike flagships, S24 FE multi CSC is divided into Middle East + Africa, South Asia, East Asia, Europe and etc. Mine is SAMEA (South Africa + Middle East). So SLK is not available to select with SamFW tool. Only option is to flash with Odin. 

I've two years warranty from local store in Qatar, but I've changed the CSC to Egypt for call recording, so I don't know if it's voided, but nothing else was erased or flashed.

It's S721B, so I've already downloaded SLK One UI 7 firmware from a 3rd party website which is about 18GB, but still hesitate to do it as if it's gonna void my warranty as it will wipe the old firmware from the phone.

For SAMEA device, still there is no One UI 7 update. Otherwise, I wouldn't mind keeping it and I'm wondering if any other user has / had the same issue with the same device 😅

That's all for now, have a wonderful day! 🌻

For my knowledge, this is a bit tricky one because there is no SLK csc option for the device and trying to flash non-avalible csc.

You can flash, but when flashing, use the Home-CSC on the firmware. It keeps the original csc of the device. In your case, Egypt.

I personally did not experience the above situation. ( your one )

As per the samsung policy, even if you change the csc, it will void the warranty.

Do this with your own risk. I think no one has tried yet this in SL. If you managed to get it done, please notify me also.

If this comment helped you in any way please consider hitting the 3dot menu and accept as a solution 🙏

I got this phone less than a week ago, but if the policy is true, then I've already lost the warranty, so much for getting call recording that I barely use 😂 I dont want to lose the device, too, because I have a bad experience with Odin a long ago 😅

Even if I use Odin, I wouldn't have used Home CSC as it's kind of dirty flash, and I'll not receive any OTA updates since some software mismatch and also could have some bugs

So, I think I'll wait until they release the update.

Thank you for your reply. I wish Samsung flashing was easy and had 1 global firmware for everyone, just like XiaoMi or a single firmware for the same model despite the number as Apple.
