I did search and came to the conclusion that since I am using ATT simcard inside my T Mobile Note 3 I will not receive OTA.
How would I go about getting OTA then?
Manually.

Samsung kies is another option... the updates actually comes faster through there.

Hi
This might be a silly question, but the OTA updates, assuming that you have a nexus, doesn't depend on the mobile operator, right?
I bought mine in Italy on contract and its the Google build, Yakju and still havent got the update....
My çarrier iis fastweb, they need to allow the update? Phone is sim free....
Thanks

well, from what i had been told in the past(at least with HTC devices anyway) is that the manufacturer is the one that "pushes" the updates... although i'm not sure if that's 100% accurate with all manufacturers. i wouldn't doubt if the originally assigned service provider would be left with the final word in getting it released.
in this case, since you haven't received the update then i'd assume it's the carrier pushing it & since you're on an unlocked one on a different carrier, it would then be up to your specific carrier to have the phone registered in their system and then start pushing updates.
in either case, i'd recommend just manually applying an updated gsm rom.
that's what i do with any phone. never install official updates, just root & install custom roms whenever i wish.
*btw this thread's probably going to get moved to Q & A
Your phone should receive updates directly from Google. Just keep checking or try to force it. If all else fails, you xan install a custom rom. I'm staying away from them for now though.

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.

Today when I was at work, I looked at my phone and had "An update is available for your device" pop up on my home screen. Since I was at work and only have 3G coverage, not 4G or LTE on Tmobile USA, I hit cancel, figuring I'd just wait til I get home and do the update. I get home, go under settings and software updates...it tells me my device has been modified and I can't update. I've rooted my phone but haven't done any custom ROMs yet. Anyone know what this supposed update is supposed to be?
You won't be able to update if rooted.

What is the latest OFFICIAL OTA or Kies Android version available for AT&T Note 2? I'm not talking about some "leaked" one...
I went to AT&T service center a few months ago and they flashed it with 4.3
My Note 4 has 4.4.4
4.4.2

Thanks, how can I download and install? The search for updates says "the process was interrupted and there are no updates available"...
I run the sim-unlocked phone on T-Mobile (the original phone firmware was not molested in any way).
Mine came OTA to 4.4.2 but have gone to AT&T corporate store for earlier upgrade when OTA failed repeatedly. The interruption error comes up for various reasons but you just have to try again on a stable WiFi connection or go to corp store, not reseller.

Europe, Australia, and New Zealand are already on the chopping block. How are you seeing this update install itself? Does it come in via the service provider network or wifi as well? I removed the sim out of the N7 and popped it into another phone for the time being...
