HK Note still on 4.1.2

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?

[Q] Leaked 4.4.2 vs 4.4.2 Poland

Hi,
I installed the leaked 4.4.2 Polish version of KK and do not want to upgrade to the version of the next day which is Kies official.
(I had to because I had the Hong Kong version of the Note 3 Snapdragon, and the leaked version had the 4 files + using the PIT file worked)
a)Are there any differences and/or will it prevent me from updating OTA when future updates come up?
b)Now that I succesfully upgraded to a European version, do I still need to do in the future the 4 files flash on ODIN when new versions come up?
(some people reported phone stuck on Samsung logo when upgrading to 4.4.2 with only 1 file and could not flash anything else afterwards.

[Q] Does the KitKat 4.4.2 update for the Note 3 SM-N9005 restricted to regions ?

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

[Q] Install 4.4.2 from another region

Purchased a Note 3 Neo in Hong Kong last year.
Model Number: SM-N7505
Android Version: 4.3
Baseband Version: N7505ZHUAND2
Currently running:
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/29517/N7505ZHUAND2_N7505ZZHAND2_TGY/
KNOX is already flipped, so I don't care.
Browsing http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-N7505/, I see that there are some 4.4.2 for various regions, but I need to have a 4.4.2 base in order to install a custom ROM correct?
I get a "Device has been modified. Software updates are not available" message when clicking "Check for Updates" - so my assumption is I'm going to have to do this manually? But do I just need to wait?
Edit:
This may answer my question: http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-3-neo/general/to-flash-bulgaria-firmware-german-sm-t3035794
Thanks for the help!

16gb Hong Kong n9005 custom roms

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
