[Q] Can I update to 4.4.2 coming from 4.1.2? - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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?

[Q] New to Galaxy S III

Hello All,
I just purchased the T-Mobile edition on the Galaxy S III and I ignorantly updated from ICS 4.0.4 to JB 4.1.1.
I want to root my phone. Am I screwed? Please help me I don't want to screw up my phone.
Thanks for any help.
Why would that be ignorant ?
Yes, you can root JB. Even if you couldn't, you could always flash back to ICS if it was that important to you.
Check out the other forums here and ctrl+f "root" - there are guides that will completely walk you through it. I used the root66 root-injected stock ROM to root my phone, it was the first time I'd ever done such a thing and the guide is well-written and goes baby-step by baby-step.

Have people become so lazy that they can't search?
Don't be a jerk. I have tried a few I was just asking what he thought was best that's all.
Comon bro, you made time to criticize but not to help.

Advice on Root and Lollipop

I was pretty excited for Lollipop to come out, but I didn't know I wasn't able to receive the OTA if I had rooted. I've been getting the attached screen. So, I'm trying to update it through Kies, but I'm not seeing the US version out yet. Will the tablet even update if it's rooted? Should I just go for a 5.0 ROM? Which would be the best? Thanks in advance.

Sorry, I forgot to specify: I have the 8.4 (T700). :-/
Only Korea is available at the moment.
Before you flash it, read the thread posted above. This is important.
