Isn't important at all. Mine's from Saudi Arabia and I'm using it in New Zealand on a French 4.1.2 build.

HI! I have exactly the same software as you do!
I bought it in a "brand" MOBITEL in SLOVENIA!
and still no OTA or Kies update!
Hope this helps.
Hi, if you want to know the csc code, open the dialer and enter *#1234#.
The csc code is the three letter code following the model number.
For example, mine says n7100dbtxxxxx. The csc here is "dbt", which stands for Germany (although I live in the Netherlands).
Then look up what region your csc stands for. You can Google that.

As far as i know your says dbt becouse you have single csc firmware.
Sometimes firmware is multicsc and you will not know csc using this code. For example if i enter *#1234# i get n7100OXXALJ4. OXX indicates multi csc, to find what csc is phone using you must run this app:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.manniakk.cscselector
mine is OXA - Poland, but could be also DBT
I get BTU at the end so does that ,mean UK ?

When u connect to kies u can see origin of phone. E.g. my phone origin is kenya (afr) i bought it from thailand and using it in Turkey. I can update it but only via kies. Ota update thing is not working for me checking update from phone says no update but when i connect it to kies starts to update, very funny

Got my galaxy note 2 from honkong theybsaid that its a hongkong version but I believe it is also international version because of gt n7100. Can I still get updates from my country (philippines)?
And can I update different version from different countires without rooting?

Sure....I have been using my UK note 1 with German stock ron and I have been updating..

ok can i get the phone from UAE and get updates from UK? i know i can change the CSC, but does it really work? with no problems?
From my knowledge you can but mind you that different region firmware will have different update dates
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
You can. But you will receive only Hk region updates. Not a big issue.
To change your region to phillipines, wait till sammobile.com brings in firmware packages and odin for note 2!
For anyone wanting to get a stock firmware for the Canadian Note II They have finally been uploaded to the Samsung Kies servers lastnight.
For those that know how to use CheckFus to check and download firmware files off of Samsung servers here is the information.
Model: SGH-I317M
HIDSWVER: I317MVLALJ2/I317MOYAALJ2/I317MVLALJ2/I317MVLALJ2
All Canadian Galaxy Note II's are using the same firmware and Samsung Canada has decided to bundle them together in one, so there is no change in the CSC name. Everything is the same except for what CSC your actually using for your carrier and its software extras+wifi settings.
Just use the following Product Codes to get the right one for your carrier:
BMC = Bell
RWC = Rogers
TLS = Telus
VMC = Virgin Mobile
BWA = SaskTel
I see Sammobile.com has just finished processing the Rogers one and Samsung-updates.com has already processed the SaskTel one. Im sure they will have the others later on as well.
Are you sure that VMC is Virgin mobile and not videotron? I didnt know Virgin sold the Note?

Yes I'm sure VMC is Virgin, all of the product codes are short forums for the carriers
VMC is short for Virgin Mobile Canada
BMC is short for Bell Mobility Canada
RWC is short for Rogers Wireless Canada
TLS Telus
SaskTel is the only Odd man out here, with BWA , but I believe it stands for Bell Western Alliance, but its really just a shot in the dark. But I do know that SaskTel gets their phones and firmwares from Bell though so makes sence.
Videotron is VTR. and They also don't have the LTE enabled version of the Note II which is model SGH-T889V
Saweeeest finally

I've also finished making a root injected Bell rom a couple hours ago just haven't had the chance to test it yet. If all goes well then I'll do the others as well. Don't want to get anyone's hopes up though so dont hold your breath as I'm still an newbie at Andriod development stuff lol.

This is the version the phones shipped with
So if I flash this with Odin, will the status no longer be "modified", and will OTA work? I understand that I will lose root.

Hello all,
Hope you're all enjoying the festive season!!!
Just a quick question as I'm getting conflicting info with my Google searches.
Galaxy Note II - UK (EE network so carrier unlocked) what is the latest Official Samsung Android version available???
Im currently on 4.1.1 but read on certain sites that 4.1.2 is available! Is this correct? I look on Samfirmware.com and cant find the 4.1.2 update and also when I scan for updates on my handset it also says no update is available...
Any confirmation available would be much appreciated

If your on ee I presume youve got the N7105 not the n700. Make sure you've got the right device model and then search sammobile firmware section
I'm running 4.1.2 the South African version on ee inn the uk with no problems. I think there isva polish and swedish one as well
Sent from my GT-N7105 using xda app-developers app
it isn't released in uk, us etc. As they are too mainstream to have the update with bugs. They are first released in Poland. Then south Asian countries like India etc. that bugs are reported as quickly as possible.

No im n7100 - had the device since launch. The 7105 is the lte version which came later, which has no use in the UK at present as 4g isn't readily available and won't be for the next year or 2

Hi,
I have a Galaxy note ii 7105
I read everywhere that Jelly Bean 4.1.2 is out in the UK for OTA or Kies but i have been trying for a week and no sign of an update.
Any one know when it is coming or is there something I am doing wrong?
My device is
AP:N7105XXALIJ
CP:N7105BVALIG
CSC:N7105EVRALIC
I was given the phone as a gift and think it came from EE but it is unlocked and I have my O2 sim in it at the moment.
Any help advice, has anyone else managed to undate it over the air or via kies.
I dont want to root it as I only have a MAC (its a girl thing) so cant run any of the third party update software.
Let me know and is it totally frustrating to keep reading about this update and not be able to get it..
Cheers
Bex

Hi Bex
Look like the latest is what you have no one on lte is showing 4.1.2 as far as I can see
To be honest 4.1.2 on standard note 2 caused all kind of battery problems in not rushing to update my note 2
CSC is the code which determines where your phone comes from and which updates you have

Thank you for that for that I will just have to sit and wait. I have to say that sucks this is the one downside of Andriod compared to Apple.

Alas Bex that is the downside with samsung they have a strange roll out for updates
Normally unlocked handsets get the update first but on my note 2 (not 4g) two mobile operators 3 and vodaphone have pushed out the 4.1.2 update first and im on unlocked version and havent got it so im spitting feathers

My CSC ends in ALJ4 and I am on BTU UK firmware. Does that mean my phone is unlocked? It is unbranded and I bought it from carphone warehouse as an upgrade for o2.
As I understand it, BTU is unlocked - it is the generic UK firmware ie not linked to a particular carrier.

Samsung really need to sort this out as this kind of lack of consistency will lose them users. I see why Nexus devices are so popular as they always get updates. I love my Nexus7 its a joy to uses. Shame my NoteII is stuck on 4.1.1 I am not going to root it but Samsung are opening themselves up to people hacking with there lack of updates.

Hey. This may be a bit of a weird question, but what if for example I'm using my phone in Lithuania with a local carrier, but i have a flashed firmware from Italy, so who provides my updates? I mean will I get my update depending when it arrives in Italy or Lithuania?
Sent from my LT26i using xda app-developers app
I think it's italy.
You said that you flashed Italian frimware that mean you have Italian kernel , so you will got Intalian update.
