Help How to force 4.1.2 upgrade?

I had a Note 2 which upgraded OTA to 4.1.2 no problem, recently I had to replace it under warranty. This new one refuses to see the 4.1.2 update OTA, I also installed KIES and it also doesn't see 4.1.2.

Is there any way to download and manually install, or force OTA/KIES to update me to 4.1.2.?

Or just wait it out. It'll eventually show up.

It never showed up, I tried every trick I could find on Google. In the end, to help out anyone else who has this issue, I found out that I had to put in my AT&T SIM in, then I did a factory reset and sure enough it updated almost immediately. Now I'm stuck with crappy battery life, sigh. :smokingsomb:
