Hello all i saw many peoples have 4.4.4 or 5.0 on their phones and i wanna update my kernel and rom to newer, i have currently 4.4.2 N7100XUFNG3.
OTA
Hello and thank you for using Q&A,
you should be able to upgrade your Note 2 via OTA function in settings, if you did not install any custom kernels or custom recovery. If your phone is completly stock, check Settings - About Phone - SystemUpgrade. There you will find an update for Androıd 4.3. If you want a newer version of Android, you need to install a custom ROM like CyanogenMod. Then you will have Androıd 6.0.1 with newest security patches on your phone.
Check here for Androıd 6.0.1 ROMs:
Galaxy Note II Android Development
Kind regards

To flash most of the custom ROMS u need to be on 4.2.2 (i.e. to upgrade boot loader).
1. First upgrade to 4.2.2 preferably ...MK3 version,
2. Take nandroid backup and then experiment with custom ROMS until u choose the desired one.
I recently rooted my Galaxy S3 (tmobile). I'm on 4.3 (JB). I want to know, since I'm on 4.3, is it possible to install a custom rom thats 4.4 (kitkat) or 5.0 (lollipop)?

yes and no...seriously - look at the forums and read up on things. Custom roms give and take away functionality, so you have to make your own choices.
hello guys,
I decided to stop waitin for official rom from samsung and will just go with custom. which rom should i try?? i want something similar to the official samsung rom with no custom additions and ofcourse stable with no problems.
I have note 2 - N7100
what would you suggest?
i'm also interested
there aren't many of them, so just start with CM and resurrection and I bet you will be surprised.
I have a n7100 note 2 and I am also looking to apply a custom ROM.
My n7100 currently runs Samsung stock ROM Android 4.4.2
I have already installed ROOT, TWRP 3.0.0.0 and taken a backup using TWRP. Also took a separate backup of the efs partition.
I want to install Resurrection Remix ROM of Android 5.1.1 - note though that this has now had development stopped. Guess they are moving on to Android 6.x
Can I pose some (technical) questions here or better for another thread?
Thanks
Hello everyone. Please forgive me but I am a super newbie in regards to rooting and terminologies. I have a Galaxy Note 8 N5100, wifi version. It has the original firmware 4.4.2 and I would like to upgrade it to Nougat 7.0. My son is having trouble playing new games on it so I theorized that it could be due to its age. Before I buy a brand new tablet I figured I would try to see if updating the N5100 would help.
I have googled and saw this link and it seems fairly easy.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2626778
Is that the correct thing to go through the process? And to update to Nougat I saw this:
http://www.android-nougat.tech/2017/03/samsung-galaxy-note-8-0-wi-fi-5253.html
Or if there is a better/easier way I would appreciate it. Thanks.
Wish I could help. I'm just getting back into this tablet myself.I'm sure someone will show up with info.

Hi! I was planning to do exactly the same thing -- upgrade my trusty Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0 to Android Nougat -- and from scouring the XDA forums re this device, it seems to me that we have two popular options (based on the comments and thanks-ratings).
Here's the link to the more popular one, it's been renamed LineageOS 14.1 by the developer(s) but is based on Nougat 7.x:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...m-unofficial-lineageos-14-1-gt-n51xx-t3533329
And if for some reason you don't like the name of that one (or for any other reason, just to have an alternative), there's another popular one called RR (short for Resurrection Remix OS). It is based on Nougat 7.1.1_r25 and nightlies of LineageOS 14.1:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...t/rom-resurrection-remix-5-8-2-rel-1-t3571116
I'm about to upgrade to LineageOS now (wish me luck). The reason I'm choosing LineageOS is 'coz it seems to be more popular and is ported to more devices.
Hi I own the same device as you and I flashed the RR rom to my tablet it was really easy, you need to root your device first and then install TWRP (Team win recovery project) after that follow the instructions on the rom
do you lose touchwiz and spen?
Hi,
Do any custom roms offer touchwiz or spen?
Thx

If you are looking to use a more current rom with Marshmallow or Nougat, then yes you will lose touchwiz and probably most or all s-pen features. AOSP roms like Lineage and Resurrection Remix are based on stock android, but sometimes they're the only way to keep an old device current. Touchwiz roms are usually adapted from original firmware or ports from similar devices. Since this device stopped receiving updates at Kitkat, the most up-to-date touchwiz roms you'll find for the Galaxy Note 8.0 will be Kitkat.
