Mydevice is S6 Edge SM-G25F i was rooted it a while ago what if i install latest firmware back with odin can i use samsung pay or not? and device is from germany i have lost the firmware and csc how can i find the original build and csc? final question is im in turkey but device firmware will be german ,samsung pay is coming to our country in 4. quarter of this year so is samsung pay region based or firmware based?
Hi I do believe as soon as you rooted your device it would of tripped knox to 0x1 and as a result Samsung pay won't work as it would be a security issue if Knox is showing 0x0 it shouldn't be a problem you can download the app About phone and see your knox status a good place to look about custom roms is the XDA developers site
Hiw can i learn my original firmware.And which firmwares are compatible with samsung pay (g925f) at least i can install compatible firmware and test if app works or not if works i can wait for to release of samsung pay for my country
NOTE if you plan on installing a custom Rom watch some of the videos on you tube.If you trip the knox security from 0x0 to 0x1 Samsung pay will not work as it will breach security.If you go to the playstore and do load the app called ABOUT PHONE you will be able to see your Knox status amongst other things
Much like issues that can occur when shifting a workforce to a new version of Windows in the PC world, mobile firmware updates have the potential to trigger application compatibility problems across an enterprise device fleet. However, unlike Windows OS updates where IT has had tools to manage or postpone these updates, mobile admins have for the most part been at the mercy of carriers and manufacturers who push out updates over-the-air to their users.
On the other hand, IT does not want to block OS updates outright, as doing so opens up corporate devices to security risks. And, as newer devices enter use, a mixed firmware environment adds complexity to the overall management of a mobile fleet.
To avoid interrupting business, IT can control when a firmware update will occur on Samsung devices with the Android Nougat OS or higher. The time control function allows IT admins to select a specific window of time that will be least disruptive to business operations, such as between midnight and 4 a.m.
During that window of time, the device will first download the update in the background via either cellular or Wi-Fi and then notify the user that the update is available and that the device will shut down after a brief period of time. If the user wishes, they can force the shutdown immediately or simply let the device count down and automatically shut off.

I expect anybody can just type a build number in. I would like to compare the checksum of the firmware with the real build. I also would like to check if it has been signed with a Samsung certificate.
For Samsung phones, there is a handy app that provides a lot of information about the phone, including Refurbishment Check. It also shows if the device is original. It is Phone INFO Samsung. App developer thread on XDA here
Starting from Android 5.0 Block based OTA, in which the device can get an OTA when the entire /system partition matches with that does on their servers. Concerns of OP in comments are addressed here- if the system is modified OTA would fail
....File OTA tolerates some changes to the partition, such as the addition of files that are not part of the source or target build. However, block OTA does not tolerate additions to the partition, so users will need to install a full OTA overwriting any system partition modifications) or flash a new system image to enable future OTAs
After updating the firmware to above version yesterday, I found that my Samsung smart TV would show a connection to the internet but the apps such as Amazon, Netflix, Broser and Youtube would not connect. I got an "ISP blocking error 202". I also found that 2 different Samsung Galaxy S7 phones and a Samsung Galaxy Tab s2 stopped connecting to the internet over wifi although they were connected to the wifi ok. Other devices sucha s laptops and desktop PC's connect fine to all internet sites and services.
All problems resolved immediately. This at lease confirms that the firmware upgrade to V1.0.4.4_1.1.42 introduced the problems so I would be very interested to hear some feedback and whether this can be resolved and another version released that included the security patches, but doesn't stop everything made by Samsung from connecting to the internet.
Wahoo noted: Due to changes made in the Android Bluetooth architecture in a recent update to Android 13, Samsung phones on Android 13 currently prevent effective use of our standard firmware update processes for Android users.
The issue is that for our R3 WiFi chip, the WiFi firmware assumed one part of the WiFi standard meant that within the connection string, one of the parameters would never have additional information. They put in a filter and refused connections that had any additional parameters.
We are pushing this firmware upgrade from our end proactively and you should see no interruption in service. If you do, please let me know and we will address it. The upgrade should be completed by tomorrow afternoon.
I met with our WiFi chip partner to make sure they are implementing better processes that allow for changes on the phone and computer side. We are also working to be more proactive with our new device testing so that we are proactively finding this issues.
Hey Siri, how do I make you suck less? Turns out the answer is to link it to Google Assistant. A new update to Google Assistant for iOS adds support for Siri Shortcuts, so you can actually get some decent voice assistant action on your iPhone.
Your 632 FW broke HomeKit on my system. It has been working fine with HomeKit until this past weekend. Now I know why it suddenly started giving NO RESPONSE messages this weekend in the Home app. I tried deleting and re-adding the controller, but it no longer shows up as a device in the Home app. System still works through the Rachio app, but HomeKit is now broken with the 632 FW you pushed out. Any chance I could roll-back? And BTW, I use iphone 11 running current version of iOS, and Gen4 Apple Watch to control the system via HomeKit.
We have a new firmware release after the controller is provisioned. If you only have access to an iPhone 11 we will have an option soon to connect the controller to the internet using a laptop as an initial workaround. PM me if you would like me to let you know when it is out.
Unlike most Android devices, Samsung Galaxy smartphones and tablets don't have a true Fastboot interface for firmware flashing. The OEM developed its own firmware flashing tool known as "Odin," named after the king of Gods in Norse mythology. Odin communicates with a special software component called "Loke" which seems to be named after another important character in Norse mythology (often translated as "Loki"). Loke runs on Samsung devices while in download mode and provides the functionality necessary to perform a flashing operation.
Odin firmware files are like the factory images for the Google Pixel lineup, just compressed into one single archive and made easy to use via a GUI tool instead of a command line tool such as Fastboot. Samsung's FUS (Firmware Update Server) also offers incremental as well as full OTA ZIP files, which are meant to be installed using the stock recovery environment.
Notably, the modding community has managed to reverse-engineer Samsung's Odin-Loke flashing protocol. Heimdall, for example, is a cross-platform open-source tool that can be used to flash Galaxy devices. With that said, we will be sticking with Odin in this tutorial for the sake of user-friendliness and better compatibility factor.
Samsung maintains many region-specific and carrier-specific update channels. As a result, you have to determine the exact consumer software customization code, AKA the CSC value of your device, before downloading the Odin firmware. Keep in mind changing the CSC of an existing device or cross-flashing a different firmware is possible, but explaining such modifications is out of the scope of this tutorial.
Since we're dealing with official Samsung firmware packages, there is no need to unlock the bootloader of the target Galaxy device prior to flashing. This is specifically important for carrier models (which are notoriously difficult to bootloader unlock), as you can easily flash a compatible unlocked firmware on those variants and get rid of the carrier bloats on a locked bootloader.
Depending on the firmware type, the installation process may require a PC. Odin, for example, requires Windows, so keep that in mind while trying to update the firmware on any Samsung phone. Moreover, make sure you have the latest Samsung Android driver package installed.
Odin isn't actually intended for regular users, but since it's an official tool from Samsung, your phone will allow it to load the necessary files for flashing the firmware without unlocking the bootloader. However, using it incorrectly can still damage your device. Proceed with caution.
