Hmm. Samsung just put out a firmware update for the Hong Kong Note 8 5120, and it is pretty disappointing to see it is still on 4.1.2 when other regions have moved to 4.2.2. Anyone have any clue why this should be?

TW User Guide updated!
RELEASED 2012.05.16
TRADITIONAL CHINESE(Taiwan)
HK was already updated in May 5th.
i think they will realease Kernel source
EDIT : HAHa..... Samsung HK announced this morning "May 25th" Sorry
Taiwan is the first country in asia to roll ics...its been old news.
Edit-hong kong will get this 25 may.inform by sammy hk facebook page.
The current LPF firmware we have is not officially distributed through KIES/OTA and is a wipe firmware. I think what the OP is referring to is somewhat related to Samsung Mobile HK's message on Facebook about the launch of "GALAXY Note Premium Suite Android 4.0" on 25/05, albeit it may be the exact same release as LPF, but this one will be available through KIES/OTA and no-wipe necessary.
I assume by HK you mean Hong Kong right? If so then it's not true ICS is out for that region otherwise I would have got it.

N7000ZSLPF was released last week. It has the TGY CSC, which is Hong Kong. Yes, you would "theoretically" receive the update should it be available through KIES or OTA, but that release was an Odin package. That was why you did not see any notifications. Note: no update notifications through KIES and or OTA doesn't necessarily mean the firmware do not exist.
By HK, yes, I was referring to Hong Kong. Samsung Mobile HK announced the availability of ICS on their official Facebook page about two hours ago, which is scheduled to be pushed through KIES/OTA on or after the 25th, should there be no delay.

Hi all,
I have the Galaxy Note 3 SM-N9005, currenty running android 4.3, and I am waiting eagerly for the KitKat 4.4.2 update, but I'm afraid that because this specific model is not officialy sold im my country (Israel) and I bought it from abroad, that maybe the KitKat update will not reach my phone here in Israel.
Can someone please tell me if the official Samsung KitKat 4.4.2 update for this model (SM-N9005) is not region restricted, e.g. it has nothing to do with regions, and my phone will be updates via kies anyway ?

You Note will update from the Region that it was bought from, via OTA -- So if you got it from say, Germany, you'll receive German OTA update when it rolls out, same for X Y Z country.
I just did this and flashed the mexican CSC and locked my phone. I think if you keep the right CSC you'll be fine
Thanks

Questions got a note in February with Android 4.3 version of Hong Kong and would like to change the 4.3 to another country because with that I can not put a modified recoverey. It could change the Android without any problems?
Hi all my girlfriend just bought a note 3 thinking it would come with a btu firmware but it turned out to have a Hong Kong firmware on it.. I've had a look at ita running 4.3 or 4.4. Android can't remember which one however we tried updating through settings but it can't findo any updates for lollipop...
I haven't tried it with kies as she might be sending it back as it was advertised with a btu firmware. If I can get it to update to lollipop she want me to put the aryamod s7 rom on it like I've got on my n9005 UK version..
I thought it would be easy but then after reading the threads about the hk versionso been different didn't want to brake anything.
If it is possible was its updated which kernel and custom recovery do I use. Would I use the hlte Eur ones
Any help would be much appreciated thanks
