[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. .
Sent from my GT-N5110 using xda app-developers app

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

Could you please let us know where to download the US firmware?

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...

[Q] Android update and carrier question

It's my firs post, so forgive me if thread is in wrong place, and replace it if you can. Thank you.
So, ok...I've got N-5100 with original soft: 4.1.2 Android version, N5100XXBMC89 modem, XXBMD1 version number.
There was an update do 4.2.2 but not in my country (Poland). I know that I can make manual update, but my question is: is the 3g will be working? From which country should I choose an update?
Will be glad for ANY help.
Thank You.

Ok, my N5100 had the same modem/software as yours. I rooted with CF-Auto-Root: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2291839. Next, using odin, I flashed PhilZ Touch: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2552657 to get a custom recovery. Last, using PhilZ, I flashed this rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2407752.
Everything went very smooth. It was the easiest root and upgrade I have done. I ended up with stock-rooted 4.2.2. 3g works great on AT&T and phone reception is also very good.
Read the instructions in each of the forums and be careful that you download the correct files. For example, PhilZ has a file for the N5100 as well as the N5110.
Hope this helps.

Yeah, I'm just worried about this carrier stuff. My question is if the German version of software will be working with Polish 3g operators. But tomorrow is Sunday, I will have time to try your way. TY.

I haven't had a need to use them, but there is a modem thread in case you encounter problems with the German Rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2523622

[Q] Can I update to 4.4.2 coming from 4.1.2?

Sorry, guys, I know this is probably a dumb question, but I simply can't find this info anywhere!
I will sell my Galaxy Note 2 tomorrow morning and it was inside the box for a long time, still with 4.1.2, and I already downloaded 4.4.2 official ROM from Brazil, but I really don't know if I need to first upgrade to 4.3 before.
Can someone answer me?
Thanks so much in advance!

Why don't you just try the Update option in the Settings/About?
