It's true. If you have a UK GT-N7105 on EE then there was a new official KitKat firmware released by Samsung and EE. It is described as a "Stability update". The PDA Version is N7105XXSFQA2. I notice the same updated version is also available for other regions, see samdown.com/samsung/GT-N7105
I recently reset my Note II from lineageos to stock and I received the update OTA. I used some vulnerability scanners and can confirm that this KitKat version is not vulnerable to Stagefright, Openssl Heartbleed, FakeID or Masterkey bugs. The kernel is updated and SE Linux policies are updated too. As far as I can tell there are no new features and the firmware image still contains obsolete and unusable apps such as Reader Hub, Music Hub and so on.

I have an unrooted SM-N910G purchased directly from Samsung in Singapore
The last update I received was 5.0.1
N910GDTU1BOC7
3.10.40-5042088
Build LRX22C_N910GDTU1BOF1
I heard that newer versions would be rolled-out, but whenever i have the system check,
it tells me this is the last upgrade.
can someone tell me whether I am doing something wrong?
The roll out for Marshmallow has just recently begun. Some countries have received the update for Marshmallow eariler than some. The speed of the firmware update release depends on where you purchased your device. I am still waiting for the OTA Marshmallow firmware update for my UAE N910C. Just be patient, I'm sure you will get it soon.
No matter what Singapore CSC is selected, all of them got the latest 5.1.1 update in december, 2015:

Yes i can so samsung isnt rolling up the update to dbt phones because nougat has still Problems ( a Vodafone employe toll me that) and basically all the releasing nougat Software Updates are still betas with Bugs. They only do Release carrier Software because samsung hasn't do bother recalls on the s7 and edge Sold by the carrier. We will get the update when it's polished and Bug free. They also State in many Forums that the nougat update especially on Vodafone Germany makes very much Problems. They have to exchange 4 to 6 Devices per Day and the new ones you get from Vodafone Germany are coming with marshmallow preinstalled
Thats what i Got from the Vodafone work er. Dont know If it's fully Truth but it seems truth
Meanwhile the update is available through OTA as well as for download, however, only with security patch of January 2017. The build date is January, 30th thus released without further "polishing" as mentioned before.
DBT Nougat on Samfirm-Sammobile online.

I'm from Europe/Romania and using Orange carrier. I bought it from someone who said the phone is from the UK which is true.
I did a factory restore when I got it and the phone is not rooted and unlocked.
Should I flash a new version? If so which one? I've never done this before so I'm really cautious.
same here i live in algeria can't receive oreo update , i'm thinking of flashing my s8 to the french firmware but i'm scared of breaking it
The samsungmobile.com link shows OTA availability for a CSC of DBT, which is German according to other XDA threads, not Romanian. Update availability is based on CSC, are you sure that your CSC is DBT?
I have the same issue .. please can anybody assist
I would try updating manualy to Oreo latest and then updating it to PIE
Just update from odin with home_csc to keep the data. But if you update from 7.0 to another android version, i recomend a clean install.
Hello, Where I can find if Samsung is planning to release new security update for my csc? The latest for me is DQK1, when other regions have DRD2.
Cheers
Your N910C has the latest/last Security patch (August 2017). Samsung also released an unexpected kernel update in November 2017 (N910F received this in December 2017). The reason you're seeing apparent later updates for other regions is most likely due to them being rubbish at setting them up and releasing them rather than them being a later update version. Samsung seem to have now given up on the Note 4 and the additional bonus kernel update was probably to fix the CPU kernel exploits that were discovered last year.
I could be wrong on this but don't think so.
For a Korean variant S6 model, SM-G920K/L/S, can I confirm what’s the max android version and security patch version it can be updated to?
Checked on Sammobile, the available stock firmware would be android 7.0 and security patch of 30th July 2018. Is this true? Just want to confirm that it can’t be updated beyond - just for stock firmwares.
Cheers!
