If you have ever tried to flash stock firmware on your Samsung Galaxy Android device, then you would have come across the term CSC. In every Samsung firmware, there are usually 4 or 5 different parts such as Bootloader (BL), AP or PDA, CP or Phone, and Country Specific Code (CSC). Sometimes, it might also contain a PIT file or Partition Information Table file. In this article, we are going to see the various CSC codes of the Samsung devices.
Samsung CSC Codes
Samsung is one of the largest manufacturers of Android devices. Samsung releases hundreds of Android devices, be it smartphones or tablets, every single year. Unlike some other manufacturers like OnePlus, who release a single version of Stock Firmware for their devices in all the regions, Samsung releases a different version of stock firmware for different regions – all for the same device.
The reason why they do this? Well, that is not exactly clear at this point. But they differentiate these devices by the Country Specific Code on the Samsung devices. Each of the Samsung devices comes with a CSC Code on them so that Samsung can later identify them based on the CSC and send across the appropriate update to the device.
How to find the CSC of a Samsung Devices?
Go to Settings > About phone > Software information. Here, you will find a section named ‘Service provider SW ver.’. Here, you can easily identify the CSC of your device as shown in the below image:

Samsung PIT Files | Explained
cant find SMP country code
Country-Tajikistan.
for note 10 plus android 12
Cannot locate OYN country code…in the SERVICE PROVIDER SW VER. the Country Code is listed OYN_AIO, but repeats AIO/AIO/AIO rather than OYN/OYN/OYN
“AIO” means you currently have Cricket csc in place and “OYN” is not in and of itself a csc profile, but it indicates that firmware is US multi-csc, meaning every csc version is technically within the firmware just simply needs to be directed to change any of the others available by programming on Samsung’s behalf or owner via utility software or some devices, mostly older or “F” variants can be manipulated via dialer USSID codes.
WHAT IS TMK/TMK/XAA PLEASE LET ME KNOW DOES NOT SHOW ON CODE LIST
looks like tmobile with unbranded usa being the one you got with the phone
“TMK” indicates Metro PCS and “XAA” is default US unbranded. The ?/?/? is something like, current csc version/intended manufactured/and device origin.
UCS is not in list
What us CAL?
CAL is Netherlands. I originally flashed the firmware from asian model to dutch model On My S21 Ultra.
What is XAC please?
XAC is a carrier or something else in Canada
