If you are not sure what your CSC is, go to APKmirror and install
Phone INFO ★ SAM ★ apk that will tell you exactly under "Firmware Browser" which is your exact CSC...

Many thanks for the help!!!!!

Those three dashes above left, click and then go to "Firmware Browser", click on it and there is the correct CSC for your firmware

He shows that

He shows that

This means that you can download the USA (USC) without branding ... because it is suitable for all others offered under "Erhältliche CSC ..."

Great, thank you very much, I'm already loading the zip.
About 3.5 hours for the rest of the 5.5 GB, loading at 300 kb / s
I don't know yet how to install it on my mobile phone, let's see what's in the zip for the program.
Or do you know a trick to install the new version?

If you are not sure how to flash then it is better to find out about it first... HERE ... or on other sites..there are a lot of them

Use latest Frija tool to download the firmware and extract with something like 7zip .
Since you have the US carrier version your csc/region code will be VZW or TMB in Frija.

If you go with unlocked version you'll need model number G973U1 with XAA in frija with latest Odin patch B(Prince Comsey)

The other country firmware you can't flash and Odin won't let you , these are all Samsung official firmwares .

Hi...there is some logic,but just checked Frija and he can easily download this firmware CSC (USA USC) .... and if you go under "Product Code USC" on Sammobile page, you will find the same firmware offered by OP in the first post..

[mustang7757]

Yes , that product code usual from US sub carrier like Comcast, Virgin mobile I believe, and some others , best to stick with carrier known out their but it doesn't matter much because they using it in another country , probably US unlocked firmware would be best for outside the US
