    • CSC: Use CSC for a clean install, to change the region (CSC code), to downgrade or to repair a device that does not boot.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    G355HXXS0API2 is Android 4.4.2 (KitKat) firmware for Samsung Galaxy Core 2, released for 6 countries, 8 CSC codes. Samsung built it on 2016-09-26.

    No. A newer build for SM-G355H is available: G355HXXU0AQE1. Install it instead of G355HXXS0API2 unless you need this exact version. The previous build was G355HXXU0API1.

    Download the package for your region (CSC) and unzip it. In Odin, load each file into the slot with the same name: BL, AP, CP (if the package has one) and CSC, or HOME_CSC to keep your data. Odin checks the built-in checksum of every .tar.md5 file before flashing. The Samsung Galaxy Core 2 must be on bootloader binary 0 or lower.

    This build uses bootloader binary 0. It can be flashed on a Samsung Galaxy Core 2 running binary 0 or lower; if the device already has a higher binary, Odin stops with "SW REV CHECK FAIL". 69 other builds of this model use the same binary, so you can switch between them in both directions.
