I've been checking daily since it's release. It keeps saying I have the latest software version. Can I call AT&T about this? I'm getting annoyed that everyone except me has kit Kat. Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

One other thing. I had that eMMc bug. My internal memory chip had to be replaced a while back. Instead of 16 gigs I have a 32 gig chip in there now. I don't see how that could affect it though.

Follow this. http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2618447 .
I followed sections all sections 1 threw 3. At section 2 the link for the I317UCUBMK6-TZ-PARAM.zip did not work. I used this link instead.

At section 3 don't be alarmed when it says it's downloading the update but it doesn't show percentages. It is downloading. In fact for me it automatically downloaded the 4.4.2 update instead of 4.3. It skipped it and went straight to kitkat. It took some time but I have Official KItkat 4.4.2.

Hit Thanks

Your first link did not work. But, if I understand, I will have to wipe my phone and load it manually? I really do not understand why I cannot just upgrade like everyone else. Anyway, thank you for responding.

So that downgrades me to official 4.1 and wipes my phone correct? Then I try to upgrade? That kinda defeats the purpose of upgrading in the first place. I can use Zen's 4.4.2 firmware if needed.

Thanks for your response though.

Yes then once you do an update to 4.1.2 it will crash and stay at the note 2 screen so pull the battery out and go back to download mode and flash the mk6 bootloader and it will boot then do another ota update and it should be like 800ish update file size and that will be for 4.4.2 kitkat
