Where to download official Samsung Galaxy Note II firmware? Yes, upgrade official Samsung Galaxy Note 2 firmware is no longer limited by using OTA software update and Samsung Kies. You can install official firmware on Samsung Galaxy Note 2 manually with Odin software. Of course, this is the unofficial way. But you can upgrade or downgrade official firmware anytime you want. And have the ability to try out other region firmware too.
Samsung has lot of firmware for its Android devices. They are separated based on region. And carrier branded one too. However, most of the features are the same among all. Just the matter of time when you get it. Usually, Europe region will get the latest official firmware first. Then to the rest of the world like Asia, US… Therefore, you can try out Europe firmware if you want to stay ahead of others.

Hi Mr.Jayce
my galaxy S II locked by entering wrong password. how can i upgrade the software..
Unlock it first.
let me know how to unlock it
Try to restart it then input correct password.
thats funny how he isnt telling you how to since the phone could possibly not be yours. haha.
To unlock the phone you can do a factory reset but in doing so it will reset any changes done to settings, delete all apps and data on internel memory etc however it will make know changes to firmware that is installed by which I mean it wont restore stock kernel and rom.

i downloaded triangle away on my phone,but there is a message saying”superauser access is needed,but could not be acquired.Are you rooted and did you give permission”.What does that means?And same message is coming on the mobile ODIN i downloaded.
It mean that you don’t have root access.
so what are my options
How did you unlock it since you don’t have root access?
Just to mention it is showing SAFE MODE at the bottom left hand side.I unlocked it by using an online tutorial,i guess by entering *#197………something and UTMS option.Do you think i have put the phone in safe mode by mistake and thats why it is not responding?how can i come out of that.thx
Yes, it might caused by safe mode. Try reboot see and make sure that mode didn’t show up again.
If you unlocked the phone through the special menu UMTS>Debuug Screen>etc. and you switched off the Perso Sha256 you need to turn it back on after unlocking so that it will not continue to go to into safe mode. The perso sha256, i think, controls something to do with device security and encryption and with it turned off it forces the device into safe mode as a failsafe to prevent damage to the system. If you read this hope it helps.

Hi Jayce!
I accidentally deleted my default ROM before installing Ditto Note 4.
Do you think that with the method you explained in this video I will be able to get my default ROM back?
It should work if partition size is the same for both ROM.
Jayce, sorry for bothering you.
I would like to make myself clear to let you give me hand. And what’s more I’m desperate.
Exactly what I did not do was make a backup before installing the new ROM.
Now in the downloading mode my phone says:
ODIN MODE
CURRENT BINARY: custom
SYSTEM STATUS: custom
KNOX WARRANTY VOID: 1
AP SWREV: A2
P.S. JAYCE, THANKS A MILLION FOR ANSWERING ME!
You can try to install original firmware back (Download it from SamMobile). But you can’t retrieve back user data since you don’t have backup previously.
Thanks Jayce, but unfortunately it didn’t work.
