Australia is usually left behind, and sometime wont ever see an update. Just Flash another regions firmware onto your device its simple, easy and painless.
I usually use the UK version:
http://samsung-updates.com/region/?region=BTU
I have flashed mine with Cyanogenmod , its now running 4.4.4 love it. I recommend if you going to upgrade to CyanogenMod is to install CWM, just incase something goes wrong.
Cyanogenmod: https://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=n5110
CWM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2201860
But i have also flashed prior to using CyanogenMod - the UK Version Firmware for Note 8 - did the Kitkat, did it to my Note 8 and also Samsung S4.
Simple really, download Odin flash it with the new firmware

Mine got updated to 4.2.2 over wifi today. I did not know it was for 4.2.2. I thought it was for a regular update. Anyway, mine is now running 8.2.2 and lost the multiple windows function.:crying:

[Q] Problem with update Note 3 to 4.4.2 KitKat

Hello guys! Yesterday (13.01.2014) appeared new update for Galaxy Note 3 (N9005 version). Everybody can update to newer version, even in OTA mode! When I want to update there's information, that I have the newest version I tried update via Kies but there's the same statement. I've got official ROM 4.3. My phablet was rooted, but now it is runing on original software. Do you know what's wrong?
What phone do you have
TWEAKED 1.0 NOTE 3
It's SM-N9005 ! T-Mobile version
T-Mobile is n900t
TWEAKED 1.0 NOTE 3
My model
TWEAKED 1.0 NOTE 3
Its because the update is for the international version. Tmobiles won't be for a few months.

I'm sure you have the tmobile version check your baseband it's also tmobile.
Right I don't know why I can't update in OTA mode. I downloaded 4.4.2 by my own and installed it by Odin Problem solved

update by country?!

Hey Guys
I'm a Newbie in Android stuff
I've Got a Note 10.1 2014 edition today and I was under the impression that the KK 4.4.2 update has been rolled out for it. read about it and watched a couple of KK video reviews. but now I see that it was P605 the LTE version!
unfortunately I bought the 3G version SM-P601 with the Baseband version of : P601XXUBMJ8 supposed to be for UAE I guess! not sure...
I checked in the firmware section in samsung website and saw that for some P601 devices like Indian versions, the 4.4.2 update is out!
is it possible for me to get those on my device without having to root?! and if yes, how?!
tnx in advance
Did you try the ota update check on your tablet? What does it say? I had to run the update from my pc. You can try that too. If both oc this fails you can update via odin if you can get your hands on the update file ... Usually a zip file.

yea, I checked on both PC an Tablet updates both said the firmware is up to date!
I can download the zip file for other basebands, but I'm afraid flashing that would cause problems...
anyone can guide me what to do?
and this is from samsung firmware website
I Guess I can download Indian or Chinese 4.4.2 but can I have it on my tab with odin with no problem?
Ok! I can't post the image!

[Q] Galaxy Tab8.4 Can I install Lollipop korean version into my CANADA S ?

Hi there epople. I have a very simple question for you Android GURUS!
I purchased 3 SM-T700 8.4 Tab S from ebay... separate purchases from different sellers. One of them seems to be the Panama version. (T700XXU1BOD5) and it automatically updated to Lollipop using WiFi. However the other two TAB's seem to be the CANADA version (T700XXU1ANL2) and these won't automatically update to Lollipop.
My question is if I can install lollipop firmware for the Panama version into this CANADA version tab?? I can download the firmware from sammobile.com.
Please confirm.
Thanks!!

Did it work for you? I want to do the same thing to my Canadian Galaxy Tab 4 8.0 (Wi-Fi) SM-T330NU now that the Korean lollipop 5.1.1 update is out.
Thanks in advance for your reply!
Yes. Did it on three of the T700 and all they work just fine
Awesome! I'm glad to hear this.

SMP900 UK - how to update firmware

Hi,
I foolishly purchased the SMP900 (WiFi), only to now find out that Samsung UK feel it's acceptable to leave it on KitKat 4.4.
In light of the fact that it won't be getting Lollipop or Marshmallow, I was hoping to update the firmware myself with a compatible official rom.
Can anyone advise me how I can do this? Can i download a Samsung release and install it? I am not interesting in rooting it or installing a custom rom, mainly because this seems more complicated and I have no experience of doing this.
If anyone can point me in the right direction I'd be very grateful.
Thanks

Hi Q,
Is it confirmed that the UK will not receive the Lollipop update? I was under the impression it's still coming through. I have been toying with the idea of flashing mine with another European firmware but held off hoping they would release for the UK, if this isn't the case I will flash shortly.
Si.
If you guys are talking about the 5.1.1 stock update to lollipop for 12.2 tab pro(SM-T900), It's already been released check out sammobile for your corresponding firmware update http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/
(SM-P900)is the note pro 12.2 also 5.0.2 i believe was released for that if you guys are talking about the note pro, the us cellular south should work for uk.
