Can't blame you. I hope what's on your mind isn't something too concerning. 😊

But hey, if anything, this shows that cross-platform CSC flashing works!

Just some health crap - But it's not as bad as I thought it might be...
Yeah I was pretty sure that you can't Flash Snapdragon CSC on Exynos - I was starting to wonder if the Motherboard had been changed or something - ie: knockoff of a Samsung...

Hi Epawaz, Please note that Samsung doesn't recommend any kind of information regarding rooting your Samsung device. Rooting disables some of the built-in security features of the operating system, and those security features are part of what keeps the operating system safe, and your data secure from exposure or corruption.
