General FXCL - APR | GALAXY S21 Ultra 5G | Official Firmware (SM-G998B) | 8th April

yes owo to owo and oxm to oxm as i know

can I change csc to any csc? Or only owo to owo, oxm to oxm, etc ?

I have an Argentinian SM-G998B which came with an OWO firmware. Tired of the slow updates and based on the fact that all G998Bs have the same hardware I took my changes and flashed the DBT OXM firmware and being running it (and doing odin updates) with no issues for months. Now I changed my CSC to DBT using the SamFW tool and everything works just fine and now I can get DBT OTA updates. Hope this helps.

I don't use Samsung pay neither call recording, if I recall correctly dbt don't have the option to record calls. The good part is that using the SamFW you can change easily the csc and see what works for you.

Does more virtual ram (ram plus) affect battery life?

Since the latest update my battery has improved vastly. I used to get about 6 hours SOT. Today (heavy video day), I've got below, 8.5 hours. Nothing has changed, WQHD+, WiFi only, 60hz. Incredible! That's from 85% to 15%. I think if I ran 100% to 0 it'd scratch 10 hours.

%100

Not sure if it's placebo effect and all, but damn the phone feels MUCH snappier after installing 13.1.07.3 (no cache clearing or any other change, only installed this update)

Placebo,except a bug fix that was annoying is literally the same

 

[thanito]

Placebo,expect a bug fix that was annoying is loterally the same

Not sure tho, the difference is too noticeable, mine was lagging lately when navigating in ui and now it's gone

@adamlee2012 @Lukasek112 @Darbar1701 this is exactly what I was afraid of certain apps not working. Is it possible that CSC is tied to the Spay or Spass?

On that note, let's say I change the CSC to DBT for just this update and then revert to XSG immediately after updating...would the phone download the same update when it's released for XSG??

I can confirm that Samsung pay has called it quits. I changed the CSC back to XSG but it's still the same

Your thermal guardian settings are working as expected. Everytime your temp has gone beyond the threshold you've set, it has kicked itn and successfully brought down the device temp.

If you want to reduce throttling, raise the temperature threshold to get a hotter but more functional device.

And "FLAGSHIP" is just an unofficial word without any real meaning. It does not automatically make a device infallible. Every manufacturer has lemons and for last couple of years, the most powerful Android chipsets run very hot, there's not much that can be done about it. It's happended before, and may happen again.

Sadly, we just have to live with it or change the device to something else that runs cooler.
