They wont work, you dont have tbe base rom they require. Plus they are all older then our stock rom anyways.

No
Flashing kernel won't work on note 2
In note1 and other device there is recovery binded to kernel so it was possible, here recovery have separate partition.

Nothing more
Flash cf auto root and flash with Odin for pda tab. And done.
Though you need to reset counter if you want to keep device ready to claim warranty.

i believe that method is for GT-N7100 models only. You should check the Other GN2 section

There is no stock 4.2.* released.

My Note II has 4.1.1 (which is IMHO, at least after my experience on Nexus 7, the best JB version), and everytime I want to check for updates it takes forever and does nothing. Is it available for all regions? I'm Central Europe, my N2 is probably from German or Austrian batch because it spoke in german to me on 1st power-on I also read a lot of people complain on battery in 4.1.2...

Latest samsung stock rom for note 2 is 4.1.2
You can have the 4.2.x versions only if you use custom roms like aokp or cyanogenmod which are based on the new update from the nexus series... and to install custom roms you need root and custom recovery or mobile Odin

Not available for all region but you can manually update it with odin (read first line on my signature)
4.1.1 is having sds bug, your device can die anytime without reason
You should update to latest 4.1.2 (2013 released) asap.

Thanx for the info, I read on the forum about the SDS, but it is too fantastic to believe. It is under warranty anyways But just out of extereme-caution: What is the proper way to update to 4.1.2? Do I just flash the whole ROM through Odin or is there OTA that I can just run (like i.e. on my Neexus 7)? If I update, will I loose all my apps (I suppose yes - so that means backing up everything via Titanium)?

Flashing with odin is more reliable, safe and stable way.
Though flashing stock rom with odin / updating ota won't erase data, but backup is highly recommended before flashing anything.

Cool, I'm really tired of making backups and restoring - done my share of that with my old Desire HD
I can't really do backup because I don't have custom recovery, because I understand that with custom recovery, the flash counter is impossible to reset... so I just have to hope for the best

Titanium backup is nice for this reason

Yes, not all region has 4.1.2 for Note2. Mine doesn't so I flashed a custom kernel just to prevent SDS.

which kernel did you flash to prevent SDS?

You can flash any country rom.
If you have device rooted, chances to get ota is less.
