I bought a Samsung Galaxy on an auction website, with no clear indication of where it comes from.
Now, to root the device or restore it, I need its **Country Specific Code**.
**Question:** How do I find the CSC of my device?
# What I tried
1. Installed the Phone Info SAM app by vndnguyen.
2. Ran it (works even without root).
3. Opened the
CSC CODE
tab.
- Product Code
ends with TPA
(Panama)
- Firmware's CSC Code
is DBT
(Germany)
- Active CSC Code
is TPA
- Available CSC Codes
lists about a hundred codes.
Some website claims to find your CSC from your IMEI number by taking the 7th and 8th digits, which for me are 10
, which supposedly means Finland.
That's many different codes, so I am not sure which one I should use. Or maybe both of these methods are actually completely wrong?
