When I was rooted with s-off I was able to download an over the air update but it would not apply so I assume the update to 4.4 will be the same.

You need stock recovery, etc to take the OTA. Check out the Android Development section. There's updated firmware and updated stock roms with instructions.

[Q] Is there an official US 4.2.2 firmware available for N5110?

No offense to the folks running good versions of the UK 4.2.2 firmware, but since the U.S. version is out does anyone have that available to install on a a rooted but stock N5110 wifi note 8?
www androidcentral com/android-422-now-available-wifi-galaxy-note-8-kies-and-ota
I don't want the UK version (nothing against UK), but I can't seem to find the US one on the forums. Can someone link me if it is available? If not, just confirm that it isn't available yet and I'll just have to unroot and re-root.
Thanks
US stock firmware 4.2.2 is not available.

My US GT-N5110 Note 8.0 was updated to 4.2.2 through the setup menu last week. I found a couple issues with it. I would rather to stay with 4.1.2.
not sure why you can't just upgrade to the US 4.2.2 via Kies and then just root it? I can see if you were asking for a deoxed zipalign stock version, but since you didn't mention anything of that... just unroot and turn your 4.1.2 back to stock, and load up Kies and upgrade to 4.2.2 then root it.

no. it is available....where did you guys come up that it is not?
First I was talking about a version to get that was downloadable on my own not via ota or kies.
I rooted but i am not running custom rom or recovery... Kept everything else stock.
And I can't unroot and update via ota because I get message about my device being modified still after I use voodoo rootkeeper. Anyway I am at a loss on how to update now anyway and I really don't want to use a custom rom. .

I have 2 Note 8.0s (GT-N5110). One is running CM10.2 and the other WAS running that CivZ ROM; now it's running stock 4.2.2 with root. I go back and forth between original ROM with these 2 units. Just using Kies going back to stock. and they are US version of 4.2.2

it is at http://www.sammobile.com/, go search your device number...make sure you download the right version. If you have N5110 US WiFi, you should be downloading "N5110UEFMI1_N5110XARFMI1_XAR.zip", unzip it, when you unzip, you should end up N5110UEFMI1_N5110XARFMI1_HOME.tar.md5, and then use odin to flash it...remember, this is stock firmware, so if you device rooted, you will loose...

At&t rolling out kit kat

Ok. This is confirmed....But
Has anyone modded this to flash outside the software update? Since my phone is rooted and lokified it will not take the update, and a boot loop or something is waiting.
Has anyone have a download and "modded" version for us lesser children???:angel:
Thanks !

BE ADVISED: More than likely if you are rooted and you go back to stock and flash this ROM, you will NOT be able to root right away, and Free Gee probably will not work, so if this is important to you. Do NOT flash this ROM OTA. wait till the dev's come up with a rooted version.

s-off stock m8 on 5.0.1?

Just got a new m8 but its already updated to stock lollipop. Any way to s-off?
Seanyuan from cto?????
All you have to do is downgrade to a stock kit Kat Rom and run sunshine. If it doesn't work, keep trying different roms that are still on KK til it works. I think mine worked on ARHD or Maximus I believe.

Which Carrier are you?
Stock HTC is 4.16.401.10 Android 5.0.1
AT&T M8 is 4.28.502.1 Android 5.0.2
bought it "simlock free".
so only the Att version is on 5.0.2 ?
is there an update coming for the "normal" M8 with 5.0.2 ?
I think HTC will directly update to Android 5.1.1
AT&T is the Only M8 i know.
Sprint and Verizon can it have too.

last I heard is we will get the next update straight to 5.1.1 with sense 7 in August, I think HTC want to get it right this time without rushing it out.

Downgrade from 4.4.4 to 4.4.2 for removing SIM lock

I purchased my Note 4 from Craigslist and put in a request to At&t for getting the unlock code. They said that the device is still under contract but is not blacklisted. I tried reaching out to the seller but the person doesn't anwer my calls (no surprises here!)
So I'm wondering if it's possbile to downgrade my Note 4 from 4.4.4 to 4.4.2 and ue the RegionLock away. I did a quick search and did not find info on this but I do remember reading about the impossibility of being able to downgrade furthur down from 4.4.4. Can someone please confirm?
We never had 4.3, so no, you can't downgrade to 4.3 because no firmware ever existed.

Okay, you got me! I meant 4.4.2 instead of 4.3. Let me edit my original question to fix this typo. But the same question still stands.

Oh ok lol
I think as long as you aren't on firmware COC5 or COC6, you can. Once COC5 came out, it made reverting impossible.

I uploaded a screenshot of my build. Can you please take a look at it and let me know that I'm screwed? :laugh: Thanks.
Ok hold on. I'm confusing myself here.
First, COC5 and C6 are both Lollipop, so you aren't at that point. Once you accepted those updates, you can't revert back to 4.4.4.
You're on 4.4.4 now, so you can revert back, but only if:
1) ... our Note 4 was ever on 4.4.3. If it never was, you'd need a custom 4.4.3 rom, which wouldn't be possible anyways since we have a locked bootloader. You'll only be able to install official firmwares for the N910a.
I can't remember if we ever had 4.4.3 though. I only remember 4.4.4. But when I got my phone, it updated right out of the box to the same firmware you have now. So whatever firmware was before that, I never really used. Lol
2) ... you can find a flashable odin version of that firmware. I think it was NKE or something.

Your phone is on original firmware as they wore release. There is no lower firmware available for this phone. About RegionLock, You can't use it because app need root and all we have on At&t note 4 is temporally root witch will not work. Best is if you buy unlocking code from some web.
