and if do it with odin where do i find the update file and will it also remove my root?

Ughh..are you talking about official Lollipop or what?
And you don't flash with Kies, you flash with Odin...

If you don't know how to use a rooted phone, why did you root it ?
If you use Odin you will lose root. If you wanna update from a rooted phone and keep root, you should buy MobileODIN (it's on Play Store). In either case, you have to download the firmware yourself.
However, where have you read that Lollipop is available?

Well, that's not a way to post a thread....as said above if you flash it with Odin you'll lose root as we as using kies, since Lollipop would require of you to wipe your data/cache before and after the update for the phone to work smooth...

is there any performance improvements in it?

How can we know when Lollipop isn't even released....
It is said to bring performance improvements but knowing Samsung I would take it with a grain of salt

was thinking to use other phones as reference ofc, did they get any noticeable performance enhancement even though it might not be the same for the note 4

I understand. But apart from the OTA updates on the phone, There is Kies. But I'm not sure about the consequences and all.
If you update via kies you will loose your root but im not sure kies will let you update with a rooted rom.
Never used kies cause its trash

Updated to ART Compiler

I updated it last night. When it was finished updating I noticed it was optimizing apps after it restarted. I got excited and thought "Lollipop" for a second but it appears they simply changed compilers ( JIT to ART ). This is still a welcome change as the ART compiler is known to be faster and more efficient for a lot of apps. A lot of apps did install again after the update but everything was seamless, no loss of data as far as I know. Also the Android Version is still 4.4.3.
4.4.3? Shouldn't it be 4.4.2?

I installed via odin from sammobile. Cf-autoroot works. Need to install superuser by chainfire separately. Works great.
Mine OTA update fails to install at 24%. I'm rooted with stock ROM and recovery. I even unrooted and tried it again, and the same thing happens. SamMobile doesn't have any firmware (of any version) for this tablet (SM-P600) for the USA??? Seriously?

Thank you! I couldn't remember what the region code was. I guess I could've just looked at the current firmware to figure it out, though... Doh!
And "Cellular South" is the USA region code (expecially for a WiFi tablet) because...? Haha

Im assuming you installed cellular south latest from sammobile. flash cf autoroot and let it do its thing. After reboot, goto playstore and download/install superuser chainfire. it asks you to disable knox,etc. Reboot and use rootchecker. I am stock rooted without custom recovery.

You need to flash retail NK2 tar to get root. Then you'll use a 5.0 ROM to upgrade.
