Hello, a couple of days ago I received a pop-up notification in my notifications bar that said an update was available for my device. This was on Wednesday. Since I was at school, I was unable to update at the time since I didn't have access to WIFI and had two tests to write. During my tests I had to turn off my phone. When I did, I guess the update disappeared because when I turned my phone back on it never came back! I tried going into "settings", "about", "software" and hitting "check for updates", but it just keeps checking for updates continuously and never actually finds one. I really want that update! How can I get it back?
I'm on Rogers, and my model number is I317M. Anything else you need to know, just ask. I really want my update back! Please help, and thank you in advance!
Maybe it was pulled by your carrier or Samsung.
Try kies to update. But you'll have to download the whole rom again then. Also you can try sammobile for latest rom.
If you are on pre dll7 do it asap.

Hello, thanks for your response. So if I try updating using Kies, I'll have to download my rom again (meaning I'd lose all my data)? I don't want to lose all my data! What is pre dll7? I'm actually on a rooted stock rom, does that make a difference? Sorry I just got this phone a couple of months ago, so I'm still new to it. Thanks!
Pre dll7 means the firmwares released before dll7 like dll4 and dll5 and all starting from a. No you won't loose data.
It's just like a normal update just you have to download the whole firmware of 1gig again.

Thanks again. Okay I'll try updating through Kies and see if that helps. Does this update work on devices with the stock ROM on them? Thanks!
Which update ?
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app
Try clearing data from
Setting - application manager - all - software update (both)
Sometime it may able to get ota again
But even after getting update it will install successfully is a big question if your device is rooted.

I'm not sure since I lost the update before being able to check it out, but I'm assuming it is the "multi-window" feature that many other Samsung Galaxy Note II phones have recently received, as it was a software update. Has your phone received it yet?

Okay, so I should try clearing the data through the applications manager? You said both, but I saw you only mentioned clearing "software update" data, what do you mean? And I assume "ota" is the update, correct?
Why would having a rooted phone prevent me from receiving an update? When I had a Sony Xperia X10, it was rooted and I still received updates. I also have never heard of rooting impeding updates in any way. Was I misinformed??
you may see 'software update' application two times under application manager, i said clear data for both
yes, you are mis informed at least you have heard such things for Note 2.

Hello, so I went into the application manager and tried clearing both data, but it didn't seem to helpp me get the update back =( Maybe the only other way is to update with Kies as was said earlier. I'll try that. Also, thanks for responding and trying to help with my issue, I appreciate it! =)

Well there are great apps out there, I use Voodoo OTA. And it creates a backup of your root, then you have the option to do a temp unroot so when you are doing the update OTA (only works for OTA updates), the update won't detect that your device is rooted and after upgrade complete, open up Voodoo OTA, click Restore Root and voilà!
This should work all of the time, but I haven't tested it in a real scenario yet.
Let me know what happens!

Hi!
I was talking about official updates only with the OTA(over-the-air/wirelessly). So if you're in USA/CAN you'll have to wait for the JB update to come over here first then get pushed out to devices, then before update sue the app.
Michael
This is awesome news. Quick question though, since I'm new to the SGSIII. If I "disabled" some apps under the application manager, can I still install the OTA when it comes around? I'm not rooted or anything, I just got the phone a couple days ago and don't feel like voiding my warranty quite yet

You dont need to disable anything. You are on stock - so wait until the OTA is released. It will inform you, and just let it download and install.

I think he was asking if he has some apps disabled, vs rooting to remove them, if it'll be an issue to install OTA. I have all the Rogers apps disabled, since I'm not using the Rogers network. I don't see any issue with the OTA working, since no system files were changed, you're just telling them to not run. Worst case, just re-enable them when you know the OTA is out, do the update and disable the apps again. That's my plan!
Just tried to update with the "check for updates" : option under settings and it didn't work. My phone is rooted, and so when it rebooted (it props for reboot and install) it went into CW and aborted install. Is there a way around this?

Anytime I try to update my phone via OTA, it says connection failed (done so since I bought the phone in June). When I try to update via Kies, it says "This is the latest firmware" Current version: PDA:LG1 / PHONE:LG1 / CSC:LG1 (ATT); Latest firmware version PDA:LG1 / PHONE:LG1 / CSC:LG1 (ATT). I know there have been several updates as I'm on I747UCLG1. I was rooted, but reverted in attempt to exchange out my phone due to battery issues (which were instantly gone after returning to stock). My girlfriend also has the AT&T S3 which has always been stock and is having the same issues. Does anyone know why this is happening or a simple way to update (simple enough to explain to someone who is not tech savvy over the phone)? I just don't know why the phones show there isnt an update when there has been several.

The update after UCLG1 hasn't made it to kies. It's a staggered rollout it seems. Either that or it's been pulled.
I have the exact same issue. My phone says the server is unavailable OTA, and Kies says I have the latest firmware. I took my phone to an AT&T store, and the guys were clueless. My friend got the update on his phone and it's really no big deal, but just keep your fingers crossed it doesn't do this when Jelly Bean comes out.

I had the same issue, LG1 would only show up, couldnt get the LH9 to even show up via OTA, kept telling its is up to date.
So I ended up just grabbing the stock LH9 update.zip that gunnyman put up in another thread and just used that on the stock recovery to update it to LH9.

Thats the post to where gunnyman put the original OTA update.
Take that file, rename it to update.zip and copy it to the root of the internal storage. Then boot into STOCK recovery, not CWM (if you have CWM, you will have to put it back to STOCK recovery) and choose update via zip file, and choose that zip file, it will update just like the OTA does and be identical to stock OTA update. Then you done.

Do I need to be rooted for this to work? I know you can do this same procedure unrooted with the Jelly Bean leak.

If you are asking me, then no. You need to be on stock recovery and you cannot have any FROZEN apps via Titanium Backup as the update itself is an offset patch, so it cannot find the file (because you froze it) then it will fail.
Dixit
I downloaded the file and renamed it to update.zip. I saved it my internal SD card, and it's not showing up in stock recovery. Did I do something wrong? Oh yeah, if I update this way, can I still connect to Kies or will my device be "modified"?

I dont think it will work on internal, I cant remember though. I believe I put it on my External SD as I have one in there. If you have one, put it in there and it should work. It will not show "modified" on status, that only shows up if you are rooted.

Yes. This is an ORIGINAL STOCK update, its not modified in any way shape or form, so dont worry, its not going to affect your future updatability. That only gets affected when you are rooted. Updates like this one where its patch offset based, the update will fail due to when you root most people freeze apps. That fails automatically on patch offset updates.
Jellybean may be a full udpate which Kies will do.

This is correct. I plug my phone in maybe once a week to the computer just to check for new firmware, rather than OTA which could take a while to get pushed as they're two different delivery methods. My phone always says the current firmware and the phone firmware and that I'm on the current firmware.

It seems like your CSC is not matching with your installed firmware... I had same problem... Going to recovery mode and wiping the data solved the problem. So if you are okay with wiping data, you may go ahead with this option.

You either don`t have the correct software version for your country or the OS is modified (rooted).

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?

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.

Hi I recently just bought a Galaxy Note 2 and noticed it was on 4.1.1 JellyBean and know that there's suppose to be a 4.1.2 update out for the major Samsung phones. I went to Settings- About Device- Software Update- Check For Updates and it says "Current software is up to date". Anyone know what the problem could be?
Since your trying to update the stock firmware. You can just go to Sam mobile and grab it from there.
Go HERE:
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/
Where is you'll just be putting an updated stock firmware!! Instructions are all there!
But you can also root the device then just flash you a custom AT&T 4.1.2 stock Rom and be good to go. And you'll be better than stock any day!

But you can also root the device then just flash you a custom AT&T 4.1.2 stock Rom and be good to go. And you'll be better than stock any day!

That doesn't have the 4.1.2 update. I've tried updating using Samsung Kies but it it shows like it's about to start updating and then the application forces close. I have no idea why the Kies application would be forcing close.
Try the date and time trick ..
Set the device date ahead 1 day and try the update again ..
The ATT servers are touchy...and sometimes won't function properly ..
Another question ...
Is the device completely stock ??
Basically you must have the stock 3e recovery or the update will fail...g

Phone was rooted and I unrooted it. Also I haven't setup the SIM card since the phone isn't unlocked not sure if that's the problem. When I tried again to update it said Software Update Interrupted try again in 48 hours blah blah blah.
Carrier detection may be part of the problem ...
And depending on the return to stock method you used ...
The device may have files or a dirty area that the update app doesn't like ...
If you are wanting to run the device fully stock ...then try the unroot again ...
I'm thinking it's dirty somewhere ...g

I doubt it's still rooted because under device status it says Normal which if I'm not mistaken means there's nothing wrong or tampered with. Maybe it's just that I have to unlock it before I can update it.

I just had a Galaxy S3 which was T-Mobile and it let me get the 4.1.2. update no problem. Also I know the Galaxy S3 AT&T 4.1.2. update came out late august if I'm not mistaken and was regarded as a late update. So when did the Note 2 4.1.2. update come out?

After countless hours of searching and trying multiple different ways to update I realized I chose the wrong update file from stockroms. The phone was originally rooted and I unrooted it and when it came to choosing a rom to download from stockroms.net I chose the first one which I realized was the 4.1.1 stock rom. So I re-rooted it and then unrooted it intsalling the 4.1.2 rom and it worked and finally I have 4.1.2!!!
