Hey guys
Firstly I would like to say a huge hello to all on the forum, browsed around for a while and then joined up :good:
I have a n7100 uk unbranded note 2 that after upgrading to omega 19 4.3 which I didn't like Im trying to downgrade to 4.1.2 and then reflash omega 18 as I cannot roll back to 18,
I wondered if this is the correct way as it the moment its stuck on the boot screen and when I attempt to wipe the internal sd card the phone reboots and again sticks?
Im struggling to find the stock firmware and wondered if anyone can point me in the right direction.
Thanks in advance
I think it is not posible to downgrade from 4.3 to 4.1.2 because of changes in bootlader in MK4 version.

He is using Omega, which is a custom ROM, I believe. It should most probably my Knox-free. Of course, If u flashed a ROM that relies on Knox, too bad, you're out of options.
Smack that thanks button if I helped.

Hello,
I've got a LK7-bootloader (baseband N7100XXDLK7) on my german N7100 and actually installed ProBAM 1.2.0.
Because of some stability-issues I would like to install a 4.3-ROM like Omega or Phoenix, but I'm a bit confused about MJ5-bootloader, KNOX, Wifi-Fix etc.
Under all circumstances I would like to avoid having a KNOX-actived bootloader!
What do I have to do to get a smooth, stable 4.3-ROM with the corresponding bootloader?
Any help is really much appreciated :good:
Best regards and thanks a lot

You can either remain on your bootloader and flash Dr. ketan's Wi-fi patch, or flash MJ5 bootloader, which doesn't have Knox. IMHO MJ5 is better option. I have flashed Criskelo ROM (4.3) and MJ5 bootloader weeks ago and it works just perfectly. Definitely smoother and faster than 4.1.2, battery is the same, 100% stable, never had a glitch, and Note 3 pack is great.
Hi guys u guys are very helpful to each others

Hi,
I have had my note 3 for a while now and am selling my Note 2 so i want to flash the most stable stock rom for UK as i dont want the new owner to have any problems with the phone. Any advise ? What rom should i go for ?
I have been using the 4.3 roms with Note 3 mods and also flashed the newest bootloader to make the 4.3 wifi work so now i am wondering if i am able to go back to 4.1 or 4.2 stock roms without any issues ?
Or if the above is impossible then is there any rom i can flash that don't have any kind of FC's what so ever ?
EDIT: nvm i figured it out. SOLVED
If you already updated the bootloader i think you will be not able to use a rom that is older than the 4.3, but to be sure just ask someone more expert than me
Hello all XDA members especially in our beloved Note 2 community :good:
I've owned my Note 2 since it's first launch.. I'm satisfied and proud to have one of the best phone ever made from Samsung. :good:
I have questions related to downgrading process, just want to confirm the process coz I don't want to brick my Note 2.
My mighty Note 2 is on Omega V.28, 4.4.2 Android Version with MJ5 bootloader and latest TWRP. I want to downgrade to 4.1.2 as I missed the 4.1.2 balance among performance and battery life.
My question are :
1. Can I just flash Omega V.18 (4.1.2) or the others 4.1.2 custom rom (not interested in stock rom ) directly from TWRP ?
2. Won't that procedure brick my phone ?
3. Will I lost my imei and signal ?
4. Can I flash existing modem to fix lost imei (XXUENA) ? Will it compatible with 4.1.2 (Omega V.18) ?
Thanks all for the answer an comments.. :good:
Cheers for Note 2

As long as you are on MJ5 bootloader you can flash 4.1.2 custom ROM via custom recovery.If you lose signal flash any of the modems either from hurricane modem changer or your current one if you have a flashable zip file for that.

I used to be on JellyKat v2,v3,v4 ever since i rooted my note 2.When official KK released i wanted to stay close to stock so i tried phantom v1 then and then for all s5/note3/note 2 looks i am using DN3 V5+.I do switch to AOSP roms in between when i get tired of TW.For now DN3v5+ is what I've been using .
Hey all im looking at manually updating to kitkat and my problem is im not sure how tricky that will be as my last run in with odin was a bad one..
well not odin, but 3 months after rooting my first note 2 it died from sds. Samsung replaced it which took forever - my original one was a french model. The replacement i now have is the hong kong one.
GT-N7100
And. V: 4.3
CSC: N7100ZSENE1
PDA: N7100ZSUENE1
I know its most recent version is 4.3, but seeing friends with n7105's and kit kat is just driving me nuts!
Anyywhoo upgrading to 4.4.2--
Will it be a straightforward procedure?
And am i likely to have problems with KitKat and my particular model?
Pros cons?
Sorry for being noobish >.<

Since you are already on 4.3 you cannot go back to 4.1.2 cause of being on the Knoxed bootloader which makes downgrading impossible (only 4.2.2 is possible).Well you got few choices when it comes to trying out 4.4 either you can flash stock ROM which is rolling out slowly to many countries or you can try the custom KK. So root your 4.3 if you don't want to upgrade to stock 4.4 and then flash any one of the custom 4.4 which comes in variety of flavours such as stock note 2 KK , note 2 and note 3 featured ROM or S5/note3/note2 featured ROM.You would have to try few custom ROM to see which best suits you.No one will be able to tell you which ROM is best since each custom ROM offers different tweaks.
To download stock ROM head over in General Note II section and there's a download link for FNE1 KK French version uploaded to mega.co.nz by an user called "robalm" .Download the zip file , extract it , you'll get the .tar.md5 , put the phone in download mode and place that extracted file into AP/PDA Mode of odin and sit back and let it do it's thing.

So I would think u can downgrade but if you do I think u have to flash stock ROM through Odin but I could be wrong because of bootloaders and other stuff
Second question I can't answer I think u would have to get the stock 442 ROM that has it I don't know not got alot of knowledge with downgrading

I have personally booted 4.1.2 on my 210R after upgrading to 4.4.2. I just restored a TWRP backup I had made, and it still worked with the KitKat bootloader.
