Important: After reboot remember to Change Language to English on the first screen. By default it's Chinese.

For your knowledge:

• PDA is the operating system with its programs and settings included.
• PHONE is the modem firmware file, parts of which are required to access the hardware.
• CSC (for consumer software customisation) are the regional settings applied which may install additional programs as well as provider-specific settings (APN).

Note:
-Moving from one region to another region ROM required ODIN in order to have proper or clean firmware installed. Patching technique sometime might introduce unexpected problem.
