Hi, hoping someone here can help. I have 2 galaxy note 2's. One was ordered through Vodafone in the UK and side from a few apps they have installed that I could have done without everything seems to be working as it should. The other I ordered for my dad from valuebasket.com which turned out to be an import. It seems okay but whilst it is running the ALIH version of the firmware multiview is not working and software update is saying there are no updates. Is there anything anyone can suggest short of unlocking, rooting and applying a custom firmware?
No need to do all these things.
Just download latest stock Rom from sammobile and flash it thought Odin.

I have N7100XXALJ2 Baseband version in my phone and even if I connect to Kies then also it says its the latest OS whereas its only 4.1.1
Im sorry if I am asking a very stupid question here.
You have to wait - the update is only pushed out to few countries. You can follow the update periodically at samfirmware site - type 7100 into search and look for 4.1.2 update in your country.
N7105zhalj4
yeah, mine's an N7105ZHALJ4 and I too am waiting.
Mine came from Hong Kong via Kogan.com.au, and if I factory wipe it then it comes up in Chinese. I really want it to come up in English by default.
If I flashed a European ROM, would that fix it, or do I have to do some magic with the CSC?
thanks

You could all have different firmwares from different countries. I'm in America, bought mine from Newegg and I have Moroccan firmware.
All had the same uk modrl with the same uk firmware

i had 4.1.1 and all went fine but stuckd at download mode ,thts the finall stage on kies upgrade..my xda frnds suggestd me to use odin and to suprise even odin dint recognize my phone in down mode...."and my drivers were all correct"...then i jus connected to my other port and it was all set to flash..iam on 4.1.2.....
If your phone is a brand one, it may take a long time for the carrier to make an update. I'm with Orange/Sosh in France, and my device is always with 4.1.1, no available update. But it's not that important, i use Exynos abuse to pach the infamous exynos memory exploit, phone works very well and is root, so i don't really need a new firmware.
Hello, I heard that some Samsung galaxy note 2 were receiving the new version of Android 4.1.2. I have the international version of note 2 and I did not receive the new version and I was wondering why this is happening and when will the new version arrive to my note 2. I think that this note 2 was imported from United Arab of Emirates. Please guys help me. I have been waiting for this version of Android for a long time.

You can manually download and flash from sammobile if your device rooted. Or else
Just wait for OTA.

I want to wait for the OTA but I don't know if the update will even release to my note 2. If you guys could find me a list of the update that will come depending on the country.
Try to update via kies.
Ota doesn't always show latest updates.
Also if you still can't get update, just dial *#1234# and take a pic of the screen and then upload it here.

Yes screenshot suggests your ROM is UAE(or one of gulf country), and that is latest for UAE.
If UAE is not your home country then better flash a ROM from your home land, which give you better language and play store support
Download latest ROM from below mentioned thread and flash using Odin, all the instruction available in OP

Above explanation answers why you are not getting update.
Hi people, just a quick question.
If I download firmware that is NOT yet been released on my carrier, am I able to flash it via PC (ODIN) without having to root etc...?
Im trying to avoid rooting if possible. Unfortunately every carrier in the UK apart from 3UK has pushed the 4.3 update for Note 2 LTE (N7105)
Im slightly impatient and thought maybe I could just download another carrier (eg. Vodafone) and flash it without and implications.
Any answers would be much help. Sorry of this is the wrong section.
Peace. Match

Hey guys. I've been using Note 3 for almost a year now and I am giving my Note 2 to my son. But its still on an old 4.3 AOSP custom ROM right now and want to upgrade it to an official 4.4.2 firmware if there is one.
I look at sammobile and search for SGH-T889 but the latest I can find is 4.3 released on Dec. 2013.
I checked both N7100 and N7105 and they have 4.4.2 available for download.
I entirely forgot already the difference between all these variation so I want to be sure before I Odin something.
Can I use the 4.4.2 FW from any of the 7100 or 7105? If not, can you guys point me to where I can download it?
Thanks a lot. Really appreciate the help.
There isn't a firmware update. The T-Mobile model of the Note 2 still hasn't received the update for Kitkat.
Feel free to flash a custom Kitkat ROM on the device though it worn have T-Mobile WiFi calling if you desire that.

Oh I see. I just installed the stock 4.3 FW last night since thats the latest I can find. Can I flash the KK Rom straight over the 4.3 stock?
Thanks for the response.

I wouldn't. The Kitkat ROMs aren't going to be like taking an OTA update and I believe all the TouchWiz Kitkat ROMs are ports from the N7105 model
Hello everyone.
I've owned my Note 2 for since 2013 but it was unused for most of the time since I also own a Nexus. Before I stuck it into the drawer I installed CM 10. 2. Now I would like to go back to stock rom but am having a trouble choosing a correct rom. It is unbranded international version, baseband N7100XXALIH.
Can any of you guys kindly advice please?
Thanks in advance.
Go to sammobile, choose firmwares, choose check firmware, pick note 2 model and your country, it will auto pop out the latest stock rom for you according to country. 4.4.2 is latest
