Hi all, hope someone can help me out here.
I am using N7100

Base Band Version N7100XXALJ2
Build Number JRO03C.N7100ASALK3
I tried to get the new version 4.1.2 through OTA but it seems keep checking for software updates and than nothing happen.

I rooted back before and now I rolled back to the Offical Firm ware which I mentioned above.
I even did the triangle away so it reset to "0"
Did you root your phone ?

Yes.
I have heard others having similar problems if they have modified their phone in any way.
On your phone go to Settings > About device > Status > Device status. What does this show? Is it Modified ?

Download and flash via odin

I am sure you can but you will need to download the official stock ROM for your handset and flash again using ODIN. Best check with people who are more 'in the know' on here though first.
Samsung are making it harder for us people messing around with their phones.

I have the same problem. The OTA update didn't roll out on my phone yet and Samsung Kies tells me I have the latest version. However, my device status says normal and I've checked my flash counter on Download Mode and it said no. (Bought this Note 2 second handedly so I didn't know if the previous owner had rooted this device.)

Thanks for the info, may be I should try to roll back the stock ROM by ODIN and see if I can get the update.
Thank you all.
Regards,

you don't have update because there is no update for your CSC (for now).
Check your CSC to be 100% sure (not csc from *#1234# ,but csc that is showing this app:https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.manniakk.cscselector&hl=pl )

There is no update for my CSC either but the original poster has the same problem as mine where it keeps checking and does not respond. It should let you know if there is an update or not. In the OP's case that does not happen.

My way to solve this problem:
After rooted and reseting counter with triangle away,
After that, make a full wipe data in recovery mode. (so, make a backup up)
Now in status, check device status. It shoud be 'normal' and you can now check update

I have same issue. Not really looking forward to .2 but have tried. Totally stock and did .1 update last night a couple hours after I got it. I am putting my phone through benchmarks first before I start doing any mods.

the first that you should know if it is a 4.1.2 rom in you country/mobile company. Some companies have a slooooow development.
If there is check kies. there is an option (I cant remember what it says esactly) which makes you write your model name and your serial. This update the device to the latest update in theory skipping this check for modifications. It will make a factori reset in your phone so backup important files.
The most important thing is to check the antivirus and the firewall it is known that sometimes it deny the acces to check OTAs
hope it have been useful for U!

Thank you very much!
I talked to Samsung Norway and they said the update was avaible. I then told them it wasnt working, and their solution was... wait for it... return the phone...
After your post I trailed the forum, found this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2088809
It worked like a charm. It downloaded the update, put in on the phone, and it even didnt erase ANY of my settings while updating. It booted up, and there it was, an updated verion with all my apps and setting.
Thank you very much, once again!

Firmware Upgrade
I am unfortunately having problems updating my N7100 also. I am a bit perplexed and dont know what I have done wrong if anything.
First off my phone is not rooted at the moment and as far as I can tell was never rooted (bought brand new / device status shows normal). Here are the steps that I used:
1. Downloaded KIES onto macbook.
2. Attached phone via usb cable.
3. Followed on screen instructions for firmware update. Took about 10 min to do its thing.
4. Phone rebooted automatically and applied upgrade.
After all was complete my android version still shows 4.1.1
What the heck is wrong? I saw the upgrade taking place (I guess it was upgrading).
Now when I am attached via KIES it shows:
Current Firmware version: PDA: LJ3 / PHONE: LJ2 / CSC: LJ2 (AFR)
Latest Firmware version : PDA: LJ3 / PHONE: LJ2 / CSC: LJ2 (AFR)
Can anyone please advise what is going on here please?
Thanks in advance,
DragonGunner

Cant update my phone officially?

Hi
When i bought my galaxy note 2, i received an ota update from lj1 to lj3. My CSC is switzerland unbranded (AUT).
The first time that I connect to kies I saw that didn't show the firmware version and when I force to check it says that my phone don't support initialization. I tried on my 3 computers, two running windows 7 and one windows 8 with av disabled.
So I can't update via kies.
Via ota I received only the first time, with dll7 for my CSC on sammobile, never received a notification to update. I tried to clear data for software update app to force but says your software is up to date.
I used odin to update my phone with the firmware from sam mobile. This is the only solution that works.
But it is not a official solution... And if I didn't knew odin? And the other people that don't have knowledge to do that stay in 4.1.1?
This is a big bug from Samsung and incomprehensible.
My CSC is the only with this problem?
I never root this phone and the device status is normal.
Thanks for the help

For your CSC (AUT) i think LJ3 is latest and still not update roll out yet.
I recommend to update manually with Odin, as 4.1.1 have SDS a brick bug.
You can update to any country ROM, Feb released 4.1.2 are nice ROM, and when update release for your country, you may odin again to revert to your country ROM.

I updated to DLL7 for my country a month ago via Odin, it is available on sammobile
you can check here
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/1/?model=GT-N7100&pcode=AUT#firmware

yeah but LL7 was rolled back in most of countries
So if you already have LL7 then nothing to worry about SDS and can wait for next update.

Ok, i hope that next update will be available via OTA

More one update.
I installed french rom with odin, because is the first that receive updates.
But yesterday french CSC received xmdb6 and my phone stays with xmdb2.
Via ota says that is up to date and can't update via kies because says don't support initialization.
What is the problem with my phone?

ATT I317 Note 2 Wont Update

I'm new to android. I can't figure out why my phone will not OTA update. I'm on 4.1.2 I thought that I had the Sep. 4.1.2 update, but I don't and found that out when I was trying to update to the 4.3 that I've been waiting for. I'm still on version (I317UCAMC3) not (H3) which it says you need for the 4.3 update.
Every time I try to OTA update I get Software Update Interrupted, I think I've also gotten "your software is up to date"? I've also tried the Kies firmware and it says that my version is not supported to update via kies? I got the phone off eBay supposedly new and unlocked, but it's Att branded. Would being unlocked stop an update?

DO NOT OTA
you want to be on 4.3, just use the one click method, this way you dont have the locked bootloader

OTA = BAD. Wait and get one that is knox free as well.
It's not the unlocked part blocking the update. If the updated senses that the current version is not 100% stock, then it won't update. If the recovery is not 100% stock (I'm not 100% about this though), it won't update.
But you will end up in the long run being better off flashing either 4.4 (which ever cooked ROM you choose,) or waiting for the fabulous dev's here in XDA land to cook up the 4.3 version knox free, and rooted out of the box.

As far as I know the phone is stock so I still don't understand why the update won't go through. I downloaded a root checker to see if my phone was rooted and it says that it is not. since I can't figure out why the phone won't update I guess I should just root and install a rom.

Usually a custom recovery stops an official update.

I was told unless you have ***mh3, it will not update to 4.3 via OTA.
I have same issue, I have UCAMA3 and it won't do.
It seems it doesn't even have to be stock for someone I work with had **MH3 rooted and all and it updated to 4.3 OTA.
Maybe someone will be able to put out rooted stock one in the future.

my phone wont update either
I am having a similiar issue with my phone, it is rooted and will not update. I have Android version 4.1.2 Baseband version I317UCAMH3 Build JZO54k.. and I have twrp recovery. Does anyone know what I can do to receive the update? Do I have to unroot in order to receive the update? and if so can someone direct me on how to do that? Or is it better to just flash a custom rom and if so would someone be able to direct me to where I can find the instructions to do that. Thank you so much! I have flashed roms in the past but its been a while...

Just Kill Me

Had 4.1.1 rooted with CWM. Phone downloaded a 600MB update file. Got some sort of error part way through. Flashed stock recovery back. Let phone download OTA update. Stopped half way through the flash and aborted. No error, rebooted before I could see one - just said that it was interrupted or something after rebooting. Go to check for updates and it says the phone is up to date, however about shows 4.1.1! Kernel though is showing SMP Preempt Nov 20 date so that's go to be something new.
I noticed on Kies it says 4.1.1 is the latest version! I know 4.3 had a lot of bugs initially. Is AT&T still chickening out on this for now and all the msgs I see about 4.3 OTA update are before AT&T stopped it? Or somet issue with my phone.
I'm about to just do back to CWM, move to CM11 nightly and roll the dice on having to deal with bugs and other funky stuff. But then stability is my #1 priority so maybe just stay on 4.1.1. Can't be right as I thought there was a 4.1.2 even?? (I had the update app frozen via TI so I never bothered with the OTA updates.)

*** shoots straight into your head ***
Dead, yet ?

There's a flashable zip of the official 4.3 update in the development thread. I would recommend the no knox prerooted version though because the other version is apparently "unrootable" right now.

Jazee, I read your posts on why you chose to try 4.3. I did what jukiewalsh recommends & have 4.3 as a stable DD.
This only works if your bootloader remains on 4.1.2 or less!

I took a quick look and qasn't sure what thread you are referring to?
I'm guessing this one:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2498233
But aside from having a pre-root pre-no knox version how does this one compare to this one?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2387423
Are both of these buggy and that's why AT&T stopped pushing out the update?

I'm pretty sure that is the difference, that it's pre-rooted and insecure. As the second one's title says it's a "one way road". If you have any plans on rooting or installing a custom rom in the future I wouldn't do the second one because currently I think it's hard to root. The other one is essentially like flashing a custom rom so you can still switch between other ones or flash a kernel if you ever decide to. And I haven't tried the 4.3 TW yet so I can't attest to the bugginess

still no update?

http://doc.samsungmobile.com/SM-T830/XAR/doc.html
that says it was out over a week ago and yet mine hasn't gotten the update. US version Tab S4 (wifi). I think it might have to do wwith rooting it and unrooting it. Because i still get "this device has been rooted"by some of the samsung apps. Can anyone upload stock ROM.

I do but i don't see USA on the listed countries :[ last time I reinstalled some XYZ version which I think led to the root problem.

If you've done that there is a possibility you WON'T get the OTA update as your Tablet is no longer recognized as being for the regional firmware being released...
You will have to find the firmware somewhere else and sideload it.
Sorry I can't help anymore than that...

Someone running stock tab s4 (pie) tell me their build number? From USA wifi version please.
