So, this is the "official" 4.4.2 OTA update? Without tripping anything? There's no mention of that anywhere in the video... There's also no links as to where this "update zip" came from like the dude said...

Not sure on tripping. Mine was tripped anyway and out of warranty. Sorry can not help you on that part. Just know it runs well and shows 4.4.2 Should not do anything to a phone if worried about warranty. You are Always taking a Chance with any downloaded rom other than the one you get over phone. My opinion.

sure it is still on 4.1.2
so according to sammobile, there is a 4.3 update for my product code since December.
OTA and Kies tells that I have the latest version installed.
im puuure stock...
(sure i know about odin....) but im wondering why it would not update normally?
am i missing something with this device?
thx in advance
Samer
EDIT: Oooops sorry Mod please move it to the right section...
Note 2 sure will satisfy you.
For now don't update yet , read about 4.3 and Knox, later decide if you want to update.

[Q] Downgrading 4.3 to 4.1.2 on GTN7105

I only really used to lurk the forums, but I've seen a lot of conflicting threads with regards to rooting/downgrading methods for this particular model which is why I'm asking here today:
My understanding is that KNOX itself will trip when rooting occurs and voids the warranty, and that it also blocks bootloading(?)
I made the mistake of updating to 4.3 a while back and I've regretted it ever since, and now that there's an OFW update to 4.4.2 (I'd rather not update it) I'm stuck between updating to 4.4.2 (Which might lock me out of downgrading) or staying with 4.3 until a solution appears.
Here are my device details:
SAMSUNG NOTE 2 LTE
GT-N7105
Android Ver: 4.3
Baseband ver: N7105XXUEMJ9
Build: JSS15J.N7105XXUEML3
I'm already past warranty so tripping knox isn't a problem, I just want to bring it back down to 4.1.2.
Can anyone give me advice or a step-by-step on how I should proceed? I've been looking for a solution over the last few months without any real progress...:crying:

Once Knox is triggered or updating to official 4.3 and higher one cannot downgrade to 4.1.2. So you are stuck with 4.3 and higher ROMs. Bye bye 4.1.2

[Q] {Q} Downgrade from kitkat to jelly bean

hi guys.. i got a question,, is there anyway to downgrade from kitkat to jellybean?
thanks for answer, if you do it
You can, but it will trigger the KNOX flag.
Just follow the how to info in the Q&A threads.

That depends on how he upgraded to KitKat. If he took the OTA update from Samsung or used Odin to flash it he should have the KitKat bootloader and that would be true, but @civato has a ROM that allows upgrading to KitKat using the Jelly Bean bootloader. If he upgraded that way he can flash the stock JB firmware with Odin and not trip the KNOX flag since that's only done by the KK bootloader.
There's information in the Q&A section about how to check the current status of the KNOX flag.

hydrolynx, confused??? I am happy with JB, as most of the apps are good and a few tweaks makes KK less than spectacular to my needs.
I'd save KK for devices that lack Samsungs features... The newer devices will be anything but KK.

My note was dead last month, then I brought them to Samsung, they told me my software was corrupted, and had to reinstall it, they gave me KK, now I know what you mean gooberdude, KK is totally sucks,
Device overheating problem makes apps closed by itself and I can't even delete some files at my sd card from the folder...
Anybody knows if the software installed by Samsung can I do the downgrade without triggering the KNOX?
Thanks, I miss my old rooted JB and I want to get it back..

Just to be clear, this is the T-Mobile thread and the most recent version is NF4 and it is rootable. Not sure if the version you're asking for was a typo.

I really don't know, it could just be a side effect of a custom rom. Anyway lets assume you have already tripped knox, you should be able to run NF4 full firmware and then root with cf autoroot. I'm currently on NF4 knox tripped root and custom recovery

How do you figure that? The version numbering doesn't match the S5.
Kernel and baseband info clearly state they are for the N900T.
The version number and time stamp look like a new release (Aug 15) for the T-Mobile Note 3.
So am I the only one on this firmware? Can I still downgrade to e6 root
I googled it - NF6 is definitely an S5 firmware as louforgiveno stated.

Yeah from what i could gather it appears that way, however I'm interested in the ".dm" at the end of the build number in his screen shot. Not sure what that is??

Wow, in the q&a thread there's a user who posted a screenshot with NF9 and it also has the .dm in the build number. All these updates...really not used to it....not sure how i feel about that....?
