Read this thread:

Go to page 1:

What is your CSC?

You can go to system settings/ about phone/software information/ service providers SW ver. (Look for something like this example TPA/TPA/XEU , should be last line in that section. Yours might be different but it should be in this format CSC/CSC/CSC .)

2nd spot TPA is the your carrier CSC (set by your sim card.)
3rd Spot XEU is where your phone is from.

So look at the second spot for your CSC code.




From your firmware you mentioned this n950fOXM5crha is your big clue why I pasted the above thread!

So know you have the:

Model of note 8 : SM-N950F or SM-N950F/DS (doesn't matter firmware is for both phones.)

The multi-CSC firmware OXM

And your CSC code.

Now you have 4 choices:

1) Connect phone to PC and use smart switch to update phone (if there is one for your csc). This will keep data intacted!

2) You can use samfirm.exe on PC to download the firmware for your model phone and CSC and use the latest Odin to update.
Use "Home-CSC" file to keep data intacted!
Warning DO NOT use "csc" file this DELETE DATA! (Or you
want to delete data.)

3) Use samfirm.exe to download the firmware for any CSC that's in that multi-CSC OXM that's listed in that thread I posted and latest Odin.
Use "Home-CSC" file to keep data intacted! This will keep
your CSC the same!
Warning DO NOT use "csc" file this DELETE DATA! (Or you
want to delete data.)

4) You can wait for OTA!

Good luck!
