Restore the phone to stock and you will be able to update ota.but you will not lose much if you don't.it's been discussed already,these small updates don't bring much.usually they are operator updates.

4.3 the way to achieve it :D

Hey guyz
I have a rooted note2 with 4.1.2 android, now I wana upgrade the rom to 4.3
So my question is .. can I use the method which makes device status normal and I can download the 4.3 android officially ??
"dr. Ketan has that in his main post... how to change status without wipe"
Or I should try some other method..
Plz guide me in that way

I am using leaked 4.3 and it's working just fine, no problems till now at least. And if you have efs backup then you can downgrade again I did it myself to check now I am back to 4.3.

Well I already went ahead and did the upgrade 4.3 dn3 version
Working good so far .... but I think features like smart stay and smart pause not working....
Also It got most of the note3 features which m happy about :thumbup:
There been some post where for note2 you will get 4.3 version android but it will b without note3 features..... to get note3 features you can use "note3 experience" app available on play store .. havent tried that since I got my custom rom running already and I came to know about it later
3 days already and rom running good

Bluetooth 4.0 (LE)
The main reason for me to expect 4.3 is the bluetooth LE (4.0).
Any other way to get this ?

Smart scroll and smart pause also working on dn3 version 2
Flash it and you will never go back... awesome

Bro..just download the prerooted MI6 firmware for JB 4.3,it wont raise your binary counter and your phone's status will remain official.It also doesn't contain the KNOX enabled bootloader.
Or you can also download MJ5 version firmware.It does contain KNOX enabled bootloader but you can roll back to old bootloader after following dr. ketan's instructions in one of his threads.
Both these firmwares wont increase your binary counter and will keep it official.
Also group play is nice
There is a way now in application managerr where you can move apps from device to sd directly.. and so its pretty nice :thumbup::thumbup:

Question about 4.3

Ok I have been running slimkat for a bit and im interested in trying out tw 4.3. I just reset my phone completely back to stock and am starting fresh. Do i need to be on the 4.3 bootloader to use a 4.3 tw rom? Will i still be able to flash a 4.4 aosp rom if i am on the 4.3 bootloader? Are there any drawbacks to being on the 4.3 bootloader? I am currently on the mc3 bootloader.
Edit: I just got an update notice to update from 4.1.1 tw to something? What is it updating to and should i do it?
MH3 is a 4.1.2 version..
If you are seeing an update beyond that ...I have no clue what it might be...

The UCAMH3 update is 185.14 meg.
If you are seeing a 300+ meg update...I do not know what it is ..
Are you ATT ?
If not...it could be your 4.3 official update...and I suppose if you are on ATT network...an update is possible...
Be warned...a 4.3 update will include a locked bootloader and Knox security patches...
Your call....g

Yes i am att. I just flashed the new beanstalk build. what is knox? and can the bootloader be unlocked
Knox is the newest Samsung corporate security software...and it's a royal pain to get around..
The bootloader has to be changed in order for root level actions to be taken...
Honestly...I'm running beanstalk as well...and have no interest in ATT locking my device with an update...
Beanstalk is excellent...and I'm keeping it...
Carbon rom is coming soon also...and will be great as well ...
I wouldn't take that update...until the devs clean it up....g

Alright thanks. Hey do you have a problem with the wallpaper changing zoom and alignment on 4.4 roms?
Not that I've noticed. ..
But considering the fact that 4.4 is a work in progress. ..we are sure to see bugs in the builds...g

Need help regarding 4.1.2 update

I'm new on this forum and I'm from India.. Recently I got one AT&T S3 i747 unlocked version for my dad and it's running with the 4.1.1 version..
While trying to update through OTA it shows there's no update and I would like to update to the 4.1.2 version...
Could someone tell me how to update to 4.1.2 manually and will there be any problem with the network since I'm from India.. Coz all the 4.1.2 roms in Samsung updates website are for Canada or US

anybody with a solution??
I found this here and it should help get you to 4.1.2 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2388065 I believe you need to be already rooted with a custom recovery on 4.1.1 and then from there you can flash the .zip but factory wipe and backup before hand. I also don't think you need to download the modem from there just the 4.1.2 ROM
PROCEED AT YOUR ON RISK

You can receive OTA if you haven't modified your phone extensively. If you have any custom ROM installed it probably won't work.
Here's a thread made by one of the users, I haven't tried it but see if it works for you - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2559829
