Doesn't look like it. Although the linked content also refers to your device being updated to Android 4.0.4 there may be errors.
I am excited as I want multi view but gotta have wifi calling. This should break loose the development options a bit.
I wonder if it will also unlock LTE...
Hastily spouted for your befuddlement

F5ing sammobile.com in hopes of a leak coming through a day early......

So will we need to be running a stock rom?

Good Find! Thanks. So it's a minor update, not a full rom.

I just don't really see why I would even want to update to tmobile s update. I'm running that dll1 stock 4.1.2 rom I found in development section. Added multiwindow control .apk. and im happy!
I just think its too little too late and ill just stick with being able to use unlimited apps on multiwindow than having to go back to stock just for their little crappy update.
I cant imagine it being anything more than a couple bug fixes and added multiview feature.
However if it were to enable lte....than im all for it
But good news OP and thanks for putting this out there.

Yeah this is great for people like me that just root to freeze and uninstall apps for debloating. I didn't want to start flashing because I didn't want to mess with the counter and such.

Does this mean the stock rom with SU and root will be updated now too ?

I just want my wifi calling with unlimited multiview apps.

In theory the injected Stock Root should update to this update. But what is the real result we don't know yet. I have an backup with "ota rootkeeper" just in case if lose root. Also the developer for the injected Stock Root rom said that they are going to inject root into the new update and have it available as soon as they get the update and time to inject.
On the 19th we will see how things go.

This seems to come in record time compared to other T-mobile OTAs...

I don't get what everyone is *****ing about t mobile and waiting for updates. They pushed out 3 in the year and 3 mos I had a Sensation, I got it the week it launched and it didn't take long to receive the first ota. AT&T took forever with updates on the Captivate when it first launched. IMO, T Mobile has been pretty good with updates.

[Q] Exynos exploit patch for AT&T stock rom?

What ever happened to a patch from AT&T for the Exynos exploit? T-Mobile pushed one out to their version of the Note 2 a few weeks ago - anyone have any idea why AT&T has not done the same?

At&t is always months behind on updates.

hehe we don't need no stinkin' update! The Devs here at XDA have this awesome and new philosophy of 'moving forward with technology for the love of it' instead of the AT&T philosophy of 'staying stagnant so we don't need to spend money on getting stuff fixed right away' even though the solution for said issue is RIGHT EFFIN' THERE.
Why do I root? Because of stuff like this.

Isn't the XDA Exynos fix incompatible with the Note 2's camera? Or am I mistaken?

Sammy sent out a fix after xda devs brought it to their attention after the devs patched it. Sure, there were problems in the first patches but eventually, it was fixed. Read the kernel thread change logs and you will see at one point they included the fix either custom or official.

4.2.2

So I read that an official update is coming for the note 2. However I have since left att, unlocked my phone, enabled AWS band and rooted . (How ever I'm running stock room) when this update comes out. Do I do it. ..do I wait for a cracked release. ... If I do it do I lose aws... do I lose my root.
Thanks for your help.

Rooted devices generally do not play well with OTA updates.
You would want to be in stock configuration to take an update, in order for a complete backup to be made, then root again.
Unless of course you want to remain stock.
But either way, updates while rooted and modified "WILL" give you issues.....g

What about the aws bands? Would I lose that?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using xda app-developers app

Returning to stock yes...
Taking an update while rooted with custom files ??....unknown.
It would largely depend on the type of update, and the files being replaced. We have no way of knowing what Samsung will push to us, if ever....g

It was announced today on their facebook page... note 2 and galaxy 3 getting 4.2.2. By the end of may....

That is good news...but I always take update news with a grain of salt...
Often they refer to our overseas neighbors and not the US market.
I have no doubt it will come to us, but when is the question.

stop at&t ota update notice from 4.1.2 to 4.2.2?
Hi everyone,
I hope this is the correct forum. How do I stop getting the OTA update notices from At&t on my SGN2? I rooted it in March and I know that accepting At&t's updates will have negative affects. The notice pops up everyday all day and it's annoying. Does anyone know if there is a 4.2.2 update available on this site for my rooted SGN2 and if this will stop the notice from At&t? If so, will you post a link? I already have TWR installed.
Thank you,
tsairox

Titanium Backup (paid version) will give you option to "freeze" AT&T download.
This will stop notice.

I've had TB Pro for years. Never messed with it much. This worked fabulously! Thank you so much! No more annoying AT&T notifications!

I would also be very careful in updating. Galaxy s4 has a locked bootloader. I would not be surprised if 4.2.2 update for note 2 also locked the boot loader. I would rather apply a rooted and confirmed 4.2.2 update from here one xda once a developer confirms it's safe or has their own version.

I'm sure that won't be an issue. If I recall correctly, the devs on the s4 managed to fix that fairly quickly. Also, we have awesome devs here
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA Premium HD app

I have an s4 also and the boot loader is not unlocked it is just a bootstrap fix like Motorola phones had. Samsung can easily patch the exploit in newer firmware releases both for galaxy s4 and note 2 if they choose to lock the bootloader always safer not to apply official ota updates. Any boot loader signed with a 2048 key is unbreakable currently unless somebody working for Samsung leaks an unlocked boot loader out.

4.1.2 update

Does it not piss anyone else off that the Samsung galaxy s3 for AT&T still hasn't gotten 4.1.2 or even any news on it. The galaxy s2 even got the update for AT&T, so how is it not yet out for the s3.

It's very annoying indeed. However, there's plenty of custom touchwiz roms with 4.1.2 features and they're debloated.

Yes it does.
Did you call, email, or contact them in any way to let them know of your displeasure?
They don't read these forums. If you're unhappy, you need to let THEM know. I did - and if enough paying customers threatened to go elsewhere, they'd pay more attention.

Yea I spoke to them, but they kept giving me the BS that they were waiting for bug fixes for the sgs4 to be fixed. Theyre 2 different devices, so why does that affect the s3's update?

One thing at a time,I guess. And if it bothers you that much, maybe look at the nexus line of phones

the only way i can sleep at night is hoping their just skipping str8 to 4.2.2

Because they probably only have one software team, and only work on one Samsung device (or just one device - period) at a time.

How to get the Samsung 4.1.2 update:
1. Root your phone with chainfire's CF autoroot method.
2. Install chainfire's app Mobile Odin from the play store.
3. Download the T Mobile T999 update from samsung-updates.com.
4. Flash everything from the update EXCEPT the modem.
Enjoy the 4.1.2 goodness...

Yeah, I've seen that one. My response was aimed toward the most "stock" experience. Not everyone wants deodexed/busybox/toggle mod/etc...
Personally I'm using the tmo rom, with the T-Mobile bloat uninstalled, Google keyboard, and aosp mail.

how to flash the system without the modem ? because the download rom is one part

I read some where yesterday the reason for the delay of the galaxy s3 and note update is because a new touchwiz is being developed and is supposed to bring us up to 4.2.2.. Time will tell there is alot of B.S. on the internet as we all know.

Samsung released 4.1.2 to the carriers awhile back and all the carriers but AT&T have completed testing and pushed it out. The delay is entirely on AT&T's side at this point.

(Q) Has anyone gotten the AT&T 4.3 update?

While browsing Samsungs website I happened to click on our Note 2 model i317 and under OS it says 4.3, my question is has been released already?

I haven't heard anything, This probably means that because Samsung gave At&t the update that it's just waiting for them to push it to us. Should be really soon, sprint already has theirs and I read that T-Mobilw just got theirs out
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

Sprint's update is out, T-Mobile's is out, US Cellular's is out, Verizon's dropped today and we wait. Funny that AT&T was supposed to one of the earliest updates on the leaked list but we still wait. I just want it to get into the hands of the TW ROM teams, Ditto Note, Sky Note and Jedi so I can see what they do with it.

Yeah, my contract is up in January and I don't think I'm going to stick with AT&T. It seems like they really don't update their phones if they don't absolutely have to. =/

Thank God I am not with At&t and I am pretty sure this note will be the last phone I get that is At&t branded phone with how they are locking up their phones

I don't think that the update will be far behind the other carriers. At&t always waits till the last possible moment for anything. My guess is that it wont be an OTA but thru Kies which will suck cause my CPU just crashed on me the other day

Well as far as I can tell they're already the last carrier to push the update. The only question now is "WHEN?" (if ever, heh...)
As for Kies, I highly doubt it. Every other update was always OTA. Kies is just a convenience factor.
