downloading...

1. Any pre-rooted stock for 4.3?
2. Sorry, been out from this thread for quite a while. Any one can explain to what is 'knox'?

Dear all Note 2 sifus,

Just done downloaded via OTA, got 3 two type of installation, 1. Install All and 2. Install. Wonder what's the difference between these two? And after installed, shall i do a factory reset or leave it be? restart and use?

Apologize for the noob question, thanks!

sometimes u might have multiple update packages, then Install All is convenient, if u only have 1 update then u know the answer.

no need factory reset, just enjoy. it will restart for u.

Hi yyt,

Thanks for the feedback. I think I'll choose the Install All

Alright, that's cool to know that I don't need to do factory reset, else, i think i'll cry hahahaa

once again, thanks mate! cheers and Merry Christmas to all of u sifus

With all the time updating and flashing going on here are some apps for the number 1 reason (at least for me) why I got the Note:

Top 10 stylus apps

a fren's note2 just died. said was making a call when it just died. thought it was power so plug into wall... nothing.

looks like SDS. wah, thinking about this... its kinda scary.

for car manufacturers, if there's a defective chip, brake, etc... they do a recall and replace. no questions asked regardless or warranty period coz clearly defective.

in the case of phones... seems makan sendiri... :S

Yum. Might just.

Everything working fine? Are they using the using the old Webkit browser or the new Chrome based new one (like the N3/S4).

And baseband/modem CWM got posted anywhere yet?

EDIT: Found the modem. MK1 right?

my phone is currently running on stock 4.1.2, rooted and running stock recovery.
can i just flash the latest 4.3 via odin without unrooting?
any other precautions i should take note?
thanks in advance!

Hi Guys,

FYI, Official release Android 4.3 for Note 2 N7105 is now downloadable.

Just came in to sammobile today.

I just 'upgraded' to a half-decent glass protector, after YEARS of only using matte SPs.

I'm not even using SGP level stuff and the difference is like night and day, everything is sharp like a razor, as expected. Surprisingly though, it's not really THAT glossy/reflective.

Main reason I made the jump? Just couldn't stand scratching my matte SPs any more, plus using the S-Pen feels weird on matte stuff - it even feels like it's going to scratch the SP at one point.

GSP brand is Dream Power and fitting is great for 50 bucks. It doesn't come with the button sticker thing though, but I like sunken buttons anyway so it's a non-issue. Just hope the adhesive and the oleo coating will stand the test of time.

Oh and unfortunately it's not 'explosion' or 'bullet' -proof (lol).

As a plus it fits perfect with my Neo Chybrid (clone hybrid lol). I was kinda over-estimating just how thick 0.3mm is, especially with all this current hoohaa over 0.15mm glass protector. Turns out 0.3 is still damn bloody thin lol - sensitivity with touch isn't affected one bit, and the S-Pen actually tracks better now. Also for sure it'll be a whole lot tougher than a 0.15 strip of tempered glass, that's just common sense.

@mydragoon: Samsung China repairs SDS phones for free even if it's out of warranty. SME should have done the same, but then again, this is Bolehland lol.

Just downloaded the official XME 4.3 (with KNOX) from SAMmobile just now.

Was about to flash before I read some people in XDA stated if use ODIN to flash even the official one can trigger KNOX to 0x1.

Anyone here tested flashing the ROM from SAMmobile via PC Odin to confirm this?

What are you on right now? If you're hesitant to flash the official release due to Knoxy, why not use the Knox-free release that someone posted a page back? Either that or use OTA or use Kies to update the thing.

I've been off official releases for a LONG time so I really don't know if Odin-flashing the official MJ3 would trip the Knox counter or not, but IINM it might just.

Just got back to official XME 4.1.2 from Dr. Ketan's 4.3.

I think I'm gonna skip custom ROMs for a while, as I need rock-solid & reliable system for daily usage. Most custom ROMs still got random freeze & FC. (May vary for diff users)

As for Knox, I am very confident the guys in XDA will overcome this. They always have, damn good cookers.

OTA always checking for update but no prompt for one, I gave up KIES long time ago.

Itchy to flash this right away. I think got nothing to lose anyway hahaha.

No need stock rom. Try ARHD as per Eiraku and Chuahcs79 recommendation. Its really stock but really smooth.

sorry to ask, will my file, contacts, games and apps gone after i upgrade? lolz

Where did you get it? I would like to get 1 too.

Will check it out thanks!

I got 2 actually. For the price it's really not bad, it fits very well and doesn't lift all that much at the edges (a big problem with the N2's slightly curved screen). You don't get the home button stickers you get with some of the other brands, and I really doubt that you can reuse it more than a couple of times though.

But it's almost as cheap as a decent SP so WTH right?
