of course, bro! heads up to sammobile, register freely, put into device search box your device (N8000 etc.), and click on 4.4.2 fw link with country you want. download it, then search this forum or easily go to androidbiits and use odin to flash. good luck, PM me if you have a question

Have you tried Kies?

Kies won't update in Australia if there's no update to be had

I thought I saw an update to KitKat for Telstra Note 10.1 N8020 on Sammobile.

Sorry this was for S4 mini.

But would the UK, US or Canadian unlocked version work on any Australian N8020?

I just find it very disappointing that it is taking Samsung so long to roll out KitKat
Worldwide when it is now in the wind that Lollipop is just around the corner. Does this indicate there is something terribly wrong with KitKat.

I still haven't received KitKat for my S4 mini or my N8020 but my wife has it for her S4 mini. Very strange.

Apart from that I find Kies absolutely useless. Opens on installation then won't open a second time.

just use odin to update. download right firmware for the device... e.g. im using gt-n8000 (nordic, unkocked) and there is no ota for our region. i downloaded german fw (unlocked) for n8000 (basicly the same fw), attached my phone to a laptop, opened odin and pressed "start". it is so easy, even easier than installing Kies and trying to get your phone to work with it.

So you're saying you installed the German version of KitKat for your tablet on your Nordic phone?

Yes. I have N8000 (region NEE) which is the phone version of note10.1. (N8000 = 3G/GSM version, can make normal phonecalls.) And there is a german firmware for N8000 (region DBU), which i used.
