( Your device has been modified. Software updates are not available)
i never root, or install custom ROM only install 64G SD after 32G..
i bought it from DUBAI . i dont live there now and last update was not in dubai..
Do i have add new samsung account and choice UAE Country?
thank you inadvance​

There are not updates for Note2 yet, don't worry. You are not missing anything.
I don't think that country setting in Samsung account will change anything - it is not linked with firmware version.

at right :
ODIN MODE
PRODUCT NAME: GT-N7100
CUSTOM BINARY: NO
CURRENT BINARY:Samsung Official
SYSTEM STATUS: Custom

Hmm, as status is custom somebody must have rooted it or done some modification.
You need to flash your stock ROM via Odin. Then do a wipe data/factory reset via your stock recovery.
Nothing to worry about.

Your system status showing custom which not allowing you update (or giving wrong msg if no update available)
System status also should be official which at present showing custom on your device
I think just reboot to recovery and wipe cache and data should solve issue.

You're not gonna get the OTA because of this:
Custom Binary Download : NO
Current Binary : Samsung Official
System Status : Custom
You can do 2 things.
#1. If you are rooted open super su and do a complete unroot. Restart the phone and do a factory reset. You should now be 100% stock. The OTA will work now.
#2. ODIN the stock update http://www.hotfile.com/dl/189254052/2d06338/T889UVALL4_T889TMBALL4_TMB.zip.html

Thank you, but what I dont understand, I never root nor do modify anything major as much as I can remember, why it suddenly changed to modified status without me doing anything in the past hour. What exactly did I do that made the System Status to CUSTOM?
But I guess I will wait until there's a major update before doing a reset

I wish that's the case with my note, tried restart, battery pulls, wipe cache, still showing status as modified, except on safe mode, status back to normal, but still cannot update via OTA, always getting try again error. Tried updating vie KIES, still no luck, somehow KIES stop responding everytime it's finished downloading the new firmware.
Try a factory reset man

Ota update failed problem

Well here is the problem .
I was in the university when I noticed the latest update is available for n7100! so I started to download it with my 3g connection downloaded about 10 mb and I noticed that I dont have enough airtime credit left to download it so I canceled the download. When I got home I tried to download it with wifi connection and it says it's the latest update what do I do I want the update sooo bad
Can any one who installed the update give some info about the os version and new features ?
Is there a flashable file of the new rom?
" Don't tell me that was a false update message and there is no such thing for now my heart can't handle that "

Well the problem solved looks like server side problems. I downloaded the update but I get failed message at 25% I'm on stock recovery and device status is normal! what's going on?

can't do that 3000 mb of download my budget can't handle that ! can't i just find latest upgrade files and flash them through recovery or odin ?
There used to be the OTA files update only available on sammobile, however I don't know if they're available anymore or not.
Secondly, it's not possible to say what has been upgraded until we don't know on what version you were/are atm, and what will be the updated version.
And lastly, when you are doing things like this, you need to have an unlimited plan or something.

Take backup of important data and factory reset, it may solve issue. But you have to download update again and rarely I have experienced still fails to update. In such cases kies/odin only can solve.

I'm having the same issue. Phone declares it is modified when it reboots, so it is related to being rooted. Been investigating to no avail.
Have fiddles with triangle away settings and SuperSU's survival mode.
Finally got there. Unfroze all frozen apps with Titanium backup, uninstalled busybox, xposed framework etc - i.e. used option in app to remove from rom. Not sure which of these got it working.
Killed off my root, but CF autoroot again and all is good. New rom seems more responsive initially, will have to see about battery life etc in the long term.
Update: The wifi would not work after update. Flashed afresh using kies, and all sorted.

1.Make sure to have triangle away with auto resest on boot I use adam kernel and it supports it..
2.Go to download mode and make sure counter is 0 if yes load ur stock rom from odin and flash it.
3.After flashing stock rom reset ur phone from settings.
4.After reset check download mode and u will have counter 0 and status official.
5.If u want to change csc of ur region then go to play store and search csc and u will get an app called galaxy s2 csc something install it select ur csc and hit install and this will reboot and wipe ur data..

[Q] Changing bootloader for N51XX

Hi,
I have a N5105 which is identical to N5100 as hardware.
Its only difference is in software (phone features removed)
That's why I use a N5100 rom (stock) on it and that way I have hone features.
However, the bootloader is still N5105. Because of the bootloader/system difference, I can not reset flash counter. (TriangleAway does reset it when I use N5100 rom but at first boot it sets fc 1 )
So, what I want is installing a N5100 bootloader on the device. Is there any way to do this ?
Btw, I also can go back to N5105 original rom but in that case TriangleAway does not support the device (N5105) and it does not reset flash counter.
I am stuck and that's why I am open to any suggestions.
Please help me.
thx.
As far as I know, trangle away is the only way to reset the flash counter. And considering that it doesnt support your device specifically, you are out of luck for now. Maybe send chainfire, the dev of triangle away, a request to add support for your device. You can always flash back to stock rom and recovery, which will change the status to samsung official, but that wont reset the counter.
Sent from my GT-N5110 using Tapatalk 2
When you want to go back to N5105, reset the fc in N5100 Rom, then not to reboot it but go to download mode directly. After flash back to N5105, check if fc remains 0.

that works. thank you. In fact I was also able to make Allshare Cast work with that way using an original rom.
However, then I can't root right ?
On the other hand, today I tried installing stock N5100 bootloader (from the Note 8 toolkit)
it worked. But the device still shows N5105 when booting. (and flash counter can't be set to 0)
Where does the N5105 info come ?
One other thing that I don't understand is ; why can't I install the official stock rom :
N5100XXCMH1_N5100OXACMH1_N5100XXCMF4_HOME.tar.md5
When I try that, Odin says "nand write failed"
If I remove the sboot.img from that tar file, Odin can successfully install this rom.
At first I believed that it was because my device denies this rom with N5100 boot image. However, as today I tried after installing N5100 bootloader, that should not be the problem.
What do you think ?

How can you verify that your Note 8 is in N5100 bootloader?
There is an app named android system info. In build info, it shows the boot loader version. You can have a try.

It shows N5105 no matter what rom I install. To me it seems to be coming from bootloader. Because it is the first screen when we power on the device.

I can't verify but I got the boot.img from the Note 8 toolkit by selecting N5100 option.
And I didn't have any errors on Odin when uploading the boot.img
I'll give a try to the android system info app.
I don't understand; the app shows bootloader: N5105JVBMC7
how's that ?
I've just installed boot image from N5100 and then installed X-Note N5100 4.2.2 rom.
still shows that bootloader.

I am sure that the bootloader is N5100 (since the author of Toolkit would not use N5105 bootloader as N5100 bootloader)
And I am sure that the flashing is successful. I didn't get any errors.
Could it be that the device fixes its bootloader after I modify ?
any ideas about that ?

Have you solved your problems ? I'm also planning to buy a N5105 from Turkey. Currently using N7100 (Note 2) but the screen is to small for my eyes. Need a bigger screen with phone features.
Are you using the N5105 with N5100 ROM and phone features?

INSTRUCTIONS
Step 1 - Download CF-Auto-Root Android 4.4.2 Package with SuperSU fix (check the link above) for Samsung Galaxy S4 to computer and extract the zip file.
Step 2 - Download ODIN v3.07 which is needed to root Android 4.4.2 on Galaxy S4 I9505.
Step 3 - Switch OFF the phone and boot it into Download Mode. To do so, press and hold Volume Down and Home buttons together, and then tap Power button until the construction Android robot with a triangle icon appears on screen. Hit the Power button again to confirm entry into Download Mode.
Step 4 - Launch ODIN on computer and connect your phone to it while the phone is still in Download Mode.
Step 5 - When the phone connects successfully, one of the ID: COM boxes will turn yellow with the COM port number. This process may take some time. So, leave it alone.
Step 6 - Now select the file that needs to be flashed or installed on your phone, which can be found among the extracted files in Step 1.
Click on 'PDA' and select the file 'CF-Auto-Root-jflte-jfltexx-gti9505.zip'.
Step 7 - In ODIN, enable Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time options. But, leave all other options at their default settings.
Step 8 - Click Start button in ODIN and let the installation process begin. It should take just a few minutes to complete.
Step 9 – Once the root installation is done, your phone will reboot into Recovery Mode automatically and install the root package files. At this moment, the ID: COM box will also turn green.
Step 10 – Finally, when the home screen boots up, just disconnect your phone from computer.
NOTE: In case the device fails to boot into Recovery Mode automatically (as given in Step 10) or cannot root your device, repeat the entire procedure again.
OPTIONAL: If the issue still persists, repeat the entire tutorial. But, ensure that the Auto Reboot option is unchecked. Then after installation (Step 10), do the following:
Step 11 - Remove battery to Power off the phone forcefully.
Step 12 - Now boot the phone into Recovery mode manually by tapping Volume Up, Home and Power buttons. This will initialize the root process on your phone.
Your Galaxy S4 is now rooted on I9505XXUFNA1 Android 4.4.2 leaked test firmware. Check for SuperSU app in your apps list to verify if root is installed correctly.

... Not sure, I should have an answer for you within the next hour or two due to my bootloader already being voided with the 4.3 one.

I made it CWM version ,with removed Knox and Bloatware , works perfect.
For now only problem is that I cannot activate init.d support on stock kernel.

Men we need a modified 4.4 Kernel !!
I spend lots of time to get this rom working as flashable zip
but it's impossible to delete all of knox !!
knox ist in framework and in smali codes
but in a few days i think any devs have a flashable zip
This great for tw lover, one big step ahead for our i9505.
Downloading it now....>:good:
Also, besides a zip, can anyone post screenshots?
Hey people, is it possible to make a cwm flashable ZIP of this without changing anything?
I would like to try to dual boot it as second rom with my 4.4.2 GE rom
Can somebody send me or give a link to download the cwm flashable zip so i don't have to try to make it myself?

Making one now, but it seems to not wanna get past the glowing samsung logo. Probably kernel and init.d issues.
Cooking a new one without init.d to see it that helps.

knox removed
zipaligned
