No it won't root you either. You can use kingo root or downgrade to 4.1.2 and install a prerooted 4.3 ROM.

Just got a new note 2 but it is still on ICS.
Root now and unlock bootloader or do an OTA to jellybean first?
If I should root now what is the best method?
Thanks in advance
i doubt there is any Note II that actually launched with a stock ICS. Note II only came with JB.
You could check out the toolkit on this thread. it should be able to help you, its very simple to use

Note 2 is kinda hard to get fixed up. (kinda funny mixing up the word fixed for mixed now that I look at it)
It is JB. The rep said it was ICS and JB was going to download at 10:30, she must be talking about an update.
Is getting root through ExynosAbuse APK v1.40 different than the tool kit?

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:

I will be getting a new 7 inch galaxy tab 3 tomorrow.
On all my previous android devices I have root and rom'd and I will probably do the same here...
Any suggestions on must haves and must nots? Would be very appreciated!
The only Samsung I have ever rooted was an old galaxy several years ago...is Odin still the way to go? I think that's what it was called...
Is there kit kat available for this tab?

To root you must also use Odin for flashing Recovery and root.
Depent of what kind of Tab you have , so you become KK.
Tab3 SM-T217 S has KK now from Samsung
all other has V 4.1.2 or the Tab 3lite has V4.2.2

The SM-T210 & R currently have no stock KK. But there are some KK roms being developed currently.
I would not hope to get KK yet for you since it has a few bugs and since Tab 3 7.0 is
neglected over the 8.0 and 10.0. Your best bet for now is to root your Tab and
flash a custom ROM on it so it will get rid of the bloatware and speed it up.
Thanks for the replies
I finally got it and its the sm-t110 I think?
Anyways i updated all the software updates out of the box then followed some guide ( don't have the link sorry ) and using odin flashed twrp.
Then I flashed a lite ROM from a thread here on xda.
Everything is running great, no issues what so ever as of now.
I do have a question about restoring to stock.
If I ever want to, if I use Odin to flash the stock firmware will it give me the stock recovery back?
Thanks in advance

Hey guys. I've been using Note 3 for almost a year now and I am giving my Note 2 to my son. But its still on an old 4.3 AOSP custom ROM right now and want to upgrade it to an official 4.4.2 firmware if there is one.
I look at sammobile and search for SGH-T889 but the latest I can find is 4.3 released on Dec. 2013.
I checked both N7100 and N7105 and they have 4.4.2 available for download.
I entirely forgot already the difference between all these variation so I want to be sure before I Odin something.
Can I use the 4.4.2 FW from any of the 7100 or 7105? If not, can you guys point me to where I can download it?
Thanks a lot. Really appreciate the help.
There isn't a firmware update. The T-Mobile model of the Note 2 still hasn't received the update for Kitkat.
Feel free to flash a custom Kitkat ROM on the device though it worn have T-Mobile WiFi calling if you desire that.

Oh I see. I just installed the stock 4.3 FW last night since thats the latest I can find. Can I flash the KK Rom straight over the 4.3 stock?
Thanks for the response.

I wouldn't. The Kitkat ROMs aren't going to be like taking an OTA update and I believe all the TouchWiz Kitkat ROMs are ports from the N7105 model
