So I did my S10+ some years ago but want to do a s21+ ( maybe s22 not sure yet). If I grab the correct ap bl CSC from samfw and use the bte/BTU ( not entirely sure which one to use) as the new CSC will it remove the carrier bloat? And the boot logo?
The phone is on three network so it's unlocked running oxm CSC right now.
Only asking since I've read that it's not really possible anymore and requires you to use the home_csc option?

As you can see, you flash CSC if you want to not wipe, and HOME_CSC if you do:

So I managed to flash it fine. But when it rebooted it said unauthorised attempt connect to WiFi. Had my gaccount off 1st so not sure why it did that.
The three boot logo had gone at 1st but after setup and a reboot it appeared again. Any ideas on that? I'm thinking remove my Google reset it set back up then Odin flash again and ADB remove all the three apps before connecting to WiFi again?
I'm also trying to see about the re-partition option would wipe everything . But also it could brick the phone?

Figured it out. So it will try to install recommended apps. If you disable WiFi then delete the ocmagent app 1st using adb console. It won't install the carrier branding then. That's literally all that app does. Then simply reset the UI home app clear cashe. Restart and all the greyed out apps go too
