I think there is no bootloader v2 jb rom, that means you can't downgrade

Try downloading Kies and connecting your phone to it. Then it might realize you have an update in Kies. My phone didn't think I had an update available.
If it is a BTU, then no luck, we don't have an update yet. I am using an XEF DMA6 and it works good.

What is mean BTU?
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda premium
Btu is the country code if i understand correctly. There still is no UK release to date, this was one of my main reasons for dumping htc with the lack of love they gave unlocked international devices. Get your finger out Samsung.

You don't need root to flash a stock rom via Odin, i told you that it worked with me, and i have an unbranded note 2 with country code BTU (kies display the code when connected to your device) bought it from England.

Hey, its in the DN3 Rom's First page. -http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=51594063&postcount=1-
In the "Flashing Instructions" part, you'll see a step of what to do to install the MJ5 Bootloader. The one that links to JoelDroid's Rom.
Note: You cannot downgrade bootladers.
Goodluck.

Anyways this is your ONLY choice if you want to remain KNOX-free.... and yes it works, only thing that doesn't work is charging while OFF, but that is not such a big deal....

Root and Unlock Help

N00b here.. I have a GS4 with:
Android version: 4.3
Baseband ver: M919UVUEMK2
What is the proper way [Guide] to root or unlock [or both] this version?
Seems as if this version is tricky to unlock and root.. [ie KNOX etc.]
tnx in adv
Cf autoroot still works on mk2, but you're going to trip Knox: http://www.droidviews.com/how-to-root-t-mobile-galaxy-s4-sgh-m919-on-android-4-3-vruemk2-firmware/

So there is no way to root without tripping Knox?
What about unlocking is there a way to do this without root?
Sadly there is no way to root 4.3 or 4.4 without tripping Knox.
It's not supposed to be so bad to trip Knox.
Just says seandroid kernel not enforcing at boot.

People say cf region unlock also unlocks their phone.
Here is the first unlock thread I found: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2283068

That unlock thread does not work with Mk2. No service menu in Mk2.
Can cf region be used without root?

Lol.. It clearly says in BOLD red that it does not work with MK2 or 4.3.
Thanks for trying man. But ive been through most of those forums already.
Hence why im asking if there is proper way...
The only one that seems to work is the safestrap one where id have to root first then install the MF3 modem then use RegionLockAway..
Can you call T-Mobile for the unlock code?
