What is the latest official Update available?

Hello all,
Hope you're all enjoying the festive season!!!
Just a quick question as I'm getting conflicting info with my Google searches.
Galaxy Note II - UK (EE network so carrier unlocked) what is the latest Official Samsung Android version available???
Im currently on 4.1.1 but read on certain sites that 4.1.2 is available! Is this correct? I look on Samfirmware.com and cant find the 4.1.2 update and also when I scan for updates on my handset it also says no update is available...
Any confirmation available would be much appreciated

If your on ee I presume youve got the N7105 not the n700. Make sure you've got the right device model and then search sammobile firmware section
I'm running 4.1.2 the South African version on ee inn the uk with no problems. I think there isva polish and swedish one as well

it isn't released in uk, us etc. As they are too mainstream to have the update with bugs. They are first released in Poland. Then south Asian countries like India etc. that bugs are reported as quickly as possible.

No im n7100 - had the device since launch. The 7105 is the lte version which came later, which has no use in the UK at present as 4g isn't readily available and won't be for the next year or 2

[Q] UK NoteII 7105 4.1.2 UK

Hi,
I have a Galaxy note ii 7105
I read everywhere that Jelly Bean 4.1.2 is out in the UK for OTA or Kies but i have been trying for a week and no sign of an update.
Any one know when it is coming or is there something I am doing wrong?
My device is
AP:N7105XXALIJ
CP:N7105BVALIG
CSC:N7105EVRALIC
I was given the phone as a gift and think it came from EE but it is unlocked and I have my O2 sim in it at the moment.
Any help advice, has anyone else managed to undate it over the air or via kies.
I dont want to root it as I only have a MAC (its a girl thing) so cant run any of the third party update software.
Let me know and is it totally frustrating to keep reading about this update and not be able to get it..
Cheers
Bex

Hi Bex
Look like the latest is what you have no one on lte is showing 4.1.2 as far as I can see
To be honest 4.1.2 on standard note 2 caused all kind of battery problems in not rushing to update my note 2
CSC is the code which determines where your phone comes from and which updates you have

Thank you for that for that I will just have to sit and wait. I have to say that sucks this is the one downside of Andriod compared to Apple.

Alas Bex that is the downside with samsung they have a strange roll out for updates
Normally unlocked handsets get the update first but on my note 2 (not 4g) two mobile operators 3 and vodaphone have pushed out the 4.1.2 update first and im on unlocked version and havent got it so im spitting feathers

My CSC ends in ALJ4 and I am on BTU UK firmware. Does that mean my phone is unlocked? It is unbranded and I bought it from carphone warehouse as an upgrade for o2.

As I understand it, BTU is unlocked - it is the generic UK firmware ie not linked to a particular carrier.

Samsung really need to sort this out as this kind of lack of consistency will lose them users. I see why Nexus devices are so popular as they always get updates. I love my Nexus7 its a joy to uses. Shame my NoteII is stuck on 4.1.1 I am not going to root it but Samsung are opening themselves up to people hacking with there lack of updates.

Porting would be a ton of work and likely lots of bugs. By the time it's usable official 4.4.2 would likely be out.

March 3, that's the date someone on Sprint Community forums posted. But don't know myself for sure. Last time they said that it actually happened so it maybe real.

Hopefully that's true, because it gives time for devs to find a root/boot unlock method by the time it drops. That way can just OTA and be good to go...hopefully.

You don't need sim for update, I have a second G2 from Sprint, disconnected from account it still got ZVA update.

ZVA is still 4.2.2. He's talking about 4.4.2. But what you say is true, OTA update is available over wifi!

Sorry to say you should have gotten the Verizon one if you wanted gsm compatability in US as well, I hear there are problems using the LS980 on other US carriers. Besides Verizon version also has wireless charging, only downside is small buttons and that hideous Verizon emblem lol.

No i prefer this one. Im using it on tmo and the problems are no big deal. I got it for 140 and i can still use it with sprint if i want...

Nope, not on LG update site for LS980 nor the Sprint updates site, both still show ZVA.

Whenever Sprint gets it... it will be at least 4.2 years before I do bc I have verizon and verizon won't release kitkat until google agrees to change the name from KitKat to Android AT&T, T-Mobile and Sprint Can Suck It. And my update has to make my device apply no less than 47 more verizon logos to itself.

Lol, don't worry I believe Verizon's last update was a prep for Kikat, so it should be out soon.

That's what I heard when we got that 12b update but that was like 9 years ago. I just like poking fun at my carrier. They're ridiculous.

[Q] development !?

The phone has been couple of months on international market and still no one found a way to unlock the bootloader.
How come ?

Probably because the US variants just released within the last 2 weeks
Coming up with an unlock method isn't always easy, anyone who's coming up with a solution is doing it on they're own time

I'm also Sprint. Maybe you're jumping straight to Nougat. I am in San Antonio area and always get slow updates. Indicated 09/01 security and bug fixes. I miss my Nexus 5....

Is it sprint or LG? Seems like LG is kind of strict for rooting their phones. Sucks..

Not sure...sucks that the european version got an official unlock

Anyone got words if we stop trying for root? I might as well sell it now
