As long as you have a stock rom with stock recovery you will be able to get updates. Keep in mind updates are all dependent on the carrier you are with. Some carriers take forever to put out updates. Hope this helps
If you flash a rom from another country and as long as you have stock status you can receive updates.
As for kies install the rom for your country. Kies will only support if you have a phone with firmware for your country.

Hi, I have a Note2 (n7100) for almost a month now and I cannot update its software to the latest which is 4.1.2.
My phone keeps saying that I already have the latest one but I still have the 4.1.1... I also installed Kies on my PC also shows that I have the latest firmware.
My phone is not rooted. Could please help me? Do I need to change some settings on it.
Not only you but many others also having this, likely this is from samsung server issue not on your device. Or may be your country have not received update yet.
Simply download latest ROM and flash using it Odin, really odin is much safer and stable then Kies.
you can get more info from my signature, read N7100 All in One.

Thanks for the reply. I would like to know where can I download the official firmware that fit to my phone? Can I use firmware based in Regions Supported: Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Spain, United Kingdom. OR I need to download a different one.
below is the information of my phone
Baseband version: N7100XXALJ2
Kernel version: 3.0.31-310959 [email protected] #1 SMP PREEMT
Build number : JRO03C.N7100XXALJ3
Hope to hear from you soon.
*** Using ODIN means just only update the firmware not rooting it? Because I do not want to root my phone. Just update it to the latest one.
Can you input here what you are getting by dialing *#1234#

Search 'samsung update' using Google, download any note 2 firmware you desire... (Don't worry I flashed France firmware although my phone is from Korea, it works perfectly)
Flash the firmware using ODIN...
1. DOWNLOAD Note 2 firmware (any)
2. Extract the zip file (Firmware that you downloaded)
3. Open ODIN, browse the md5 file in PDA...
4. Flash it
Done, easy... This WILL NOT ROOT your device... DON'T WORRY!
GOOD LUCK

Samsung Note2 unable to update
I have e same problem as minitokyo. I bought my note2 when 1st launched (1st batch), and software version is now 4.1.1. My phone is registered in Singapore with service provider Starhub. My phone runs on the generic platform instead of the service provider Starhub's platform . When i tried to update to 4.1.2 a few weeks ago, it says that i have "have the latest software installed". I just cant get it updated via phone (ota) or via computer (kies). I called Samsung , they cant explain too, other than offering to reset my phone to factory settings , which will erase all my data, so i do not want that. Until today, .i also cannot update. Where is the problem ?
Hi everyone,
I want to update my note2 (GT-N7100) to 4.1.2 but until now I have not got the update OTA
my mobile region is AFR (Kenya) but I bought it from Syria which where I live right now !
is there anyway to force update to 4.1.2 faking the region or something ?
is Samsung racist with updates ?! so AFR update may not come
Thanks.
No need to faking
simply download any country 4.1.2 firmware from below said thread and install with Odin. Kenya already have 4.1.2

My grey import is AFR, which I believed to be united Arab Emirates (after I Googled it). I ended up flashing the French rom with help from Dr Ketan . I live in the UK btw... All working fine apart from slightly more battery drain.

I want something similar to ota update without resetting my things
and UAE got the update so if AFR is referring to UAE I should get the update, anyway am not sure it's for kenya but it's what I got from http://samsung-updates.com

csc changer from play store
So my n5100 is apparently a Trinidad and Tobago model. If I update it to another country's firmware, do I lose my ability to do OTA updates in the future?
I know for my HTC ONE, there is a way to change the model number and Cid to convert it to what you want and then get OTA updates. Is that what the changing the CSC does for Samsung? Will I be able to get OTA updates afterward s?

You can flash the France version while you wait till Thailand gets the official release.No harm.
Download it from https://mega.co.nz/#!2QRmCbyb!YkWs927BfvYxqL-vJiQHXkshqG3UtqHm4XIDbgLsEK0 ( NE1 France) instead of the slow speed of sammobile.It's zip file extract it you'll get the tar file.On odin select AP/PDA tab and choose this .tar file and flash.Good luck.

Only the thailand firmware version could work perfectly with your mobile sim
so i advice you to wait the kitkat update for your country to avoid this problem

That's not true , most of us who are running custom ROMs are running ROMS that are not based on our country's code,you dont expect a developer to make ROM for each country's stock firmware version. People here have flashed STOCK rom from other countries and using it without hiccups in their country ofcourse he can wait for the official firmware release for his country which no one knows when it would be released.
thankful to all of you !
My best regards.
