Hi there I am from Portugal, so the firmware is 4.3 P600XXUBMJ6 - NOTE 10.1 - 2014 (Wi Fi) SM-P600
So i would like to update to KitKat because of the multi user option (isn't present in 4.3)and to upgrade to KitKat, but i've read a little about the KNOX thing and i'm affraid to do something wrong... I've done it before many time with my Galaxy S2, with odin and custom roms.
If i update to the same firmware from Spain it will trigger the KNOX to 0x1? It is possible also to downgrade to 4.3 or it will be upgraded in the future?
Thanks for your help!
Regards,
Ricardo

What do you mean your phone doesnt have a brand?
From your screenshot, i can see its a GT-i9505 Samsung Galaxy S4 (correct me if im wrong).
It is true that Germany o2 network only have Android version up to 4.2.2 (see screenshot below)
You can try update using ODIN (Over the air - OTA)
Please have a study with your closest friend (google)
you can check sammobile d0t c0m
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

@gtuck1002 As mentioned by "xinfinityoO", Android 4.4.4 is not yet out for Galaxy note 3 global version like N9005 and N900.
but its available for N900P, Here is the Url for 4.4.4 firmware.
SAMSUNG OFFICIAL FIRMWARE LINK FOR SM-N900P
And you are not able to update because You have installed Custom recovery "twrp" so your knox counter might have been triggered to 0x1, and device status changed to "Custom". That's the reason your cellphone won't get updated.
So if you want to update to 4.4.4 then jus download the firmware and install through ODIN. But you will lose your root if you update to 4.4.4.
Thanks.
Hit THANKS button, If I helped You.

Hi,
What model of phone do you have? The LTE SM-N9005? If so (and I hope someone could either second this or correct me if i'm wrong) I believe you could flash via odin (and you do not need to be rooted to do this) the lollipop update that O2 has. 5.0 is available for the UK via the sammobile website, so if the basebands remain the same and the phone is the same model, I believe you could just download the 5.0 update from sammobile and flash it via odin.
Since you would be flashing an official version of sammy's rom, you won't need to be rooted, nor have a custom recovery.
Cheers

so, you are using the sm-n9005, and the firmware u have is the same one as the firmware that the 02 UK version runs in 4.4.2.
Unless I'm mistaken, and if anyone sees I am please correct me, you could flash the 5.0 version with odin for o2 UK. I don't see why it wouldn't work, since it seems you have the same phone and firmware currently in 4.4.2
cheers

Your device is using of UK (with CSC: BTU). It still without Lollipop update. I recommend don't flash via ODIN any firmware and wait for future updates (via OTA) if you aren't rooted.

I mean is there an official 5.1.1 for Russia Region as we heard that Samsung already started to roll-out the 5.1.1 for Note 4 in Russia.
That's why I want to use the russian 5.0.1 stock rom so may be I get the 5.1.1 by OTA.
