You can flash an official firmware using Odin. Your custom recovery will automatically be replaced if you flash an official firmware.
Although you can flash a custom rom....:good:
Hit thanks if i helped you
There is no harm in upgrading to 4.3 but some user reported big problems like unable to make calls, or IMEI lost, also unable to downgrade to 4.1.2 mostly. Biggest problem is excessive battery drain, wifi disconnection and unable to connect to slow network. You might wait until an official firmware airs for your phone. Maybe thats bugs free. You might then need to flash stock 4.1.2 to get over the air (OTA) update. You might be informed that you have got an update, or you can browse sammobile.com and search the firmware portal for your country. If you need information just post it here. I suggest to stay at 4.1.2 4.3 isn't a major improvement...

Why don't you try flashing a custom roms? Check out ProBam ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2336271
One of the best ROMs I have seen. Really fast and stable
You might need to re-root after flashing.
DON'T
My suggestions is:
Don't "DO" if you "NOT SURE"
Don't "TRY" if you "CAN'T TAKE RISK"

I am currently using Omega 18v (Android 4.1.2)
I would like to upgrade my omega rom to any other custom 4.4.2 kit kat rom..
Now my question is..
1) Can i flash rom directly from 4.1.2 to new downloaded 4.4.2 rom
{ I believe that first we have to upgrade android to STOCK 4.3 and then i need to install 4.4.2 right.. }
Please correct me if i wrong.
2) If I take my 4.1.2 android nand backup using philz recovery..
and then i will install 4.4.2 rom..
Now after installing 4.4.2 can i able to restore my previous backup ie.. 4.1.2
{ I saw some threads and posts that we cannot downgrade our rom from 4.4.2 to 4.1.2..}
Please solve my questions.

Yes you can directly flash 4.4.2 even if you are coming from 4.1.2 ROM,only thing you'd need is MJ5 bootloader (it's the last known bootloader that is KNOX free and works perfectly with 4.3 and 4.4.2 Touch wiz rom as well 4.4 AOSP ROM .You need MJ5 bootloader basically to have Wifi Working.Some people managed to get it working by staying on old bootloader and only flashing Dr.Ketan's wifi fix but in either case you don't need to upgrade to official 4.3 to flash 4.4.2.If you upgrade to stock 4.3 from samsung you will have Knoxed bootloader which will prevent downgrading to 4.1.2.So if you think you'd ever want to go back to 4.1.2 ROM then you shouldn't upgrade to stock 4.3 and just flash custom roms (after flashing the mj5 bootloader).I can provide you download link and instructions for MJ5 bootloader which can be flashed after upgrading your ROM to 4.3 or 4.4.2.Make sure you have a backup of your 4.1.2 ROM along with EFS PARTITION(that's a must) and then proceed ahead with flashing new ROMS.

Download triangle away from the play store and reset flash counter.
Fully unroot using Supersu. Then upgrade via software update or Kies.
Press thumps up if you found this suggestion helpful.

If your device is not carrier locked, you can install any version of firmware, also of another country (you can change language later). Do it via odin.
You can install a stock version or a modded one (Dn3, dr.ketan or other in this section).

If your phone includes two sims, it belongs to China region. It has to be Samsung Galaxy Note 2 Duos GT-N7102.
In that case, unfortunately, you can only upgrade to 4.3 official stock ROM.
There should be a 4.4.2 based ROM available. But my best guess is that it is in Chinese language. So don't know what to suggest.
If it is GT-N7100, you will be spoilt for choice.

Usually the WI-FI problem happens when you dont have the proper base build which is 4.16.xxx something that can be found on your phone, youll need to get an OTA update from your carrier in order to be able to enjoy ROMS that have a different base

Custom recoverys cant process OTA updates, so you will need a stock reocvery or to download the OTA zip file that corresponds to you and then you will be able to update via the RUU
hi..
I have bought a galaxy note from ebay india(imported)...iam now in india..
But the OTA update is unavilable...
It says
your device is modified, updates not avilable
I recived it with preloaded superuser.(Pre rooted)
MY friend told if i flash custom rom problems will come in base band...
I have attached images..
please help me....
Update via custom samsung rom
If u want the lastest version of android the only solution is to root your phone and install recovery and i recommend to flash wesam.othan v8..1 rom because it's a international rom so it will work for India baseband too.
Thank u bro... Will it again get factiry locked if i flash the rom??

I had the same problem with my rooted N7100. You have to make updates with Kies or Odin. If you wish to use the stock android, download from sammobile.com the indian version of the firmware for the N7100.
