Stock Android 4.3 really is full of bugs, try a custom rom to see if that gives it a knock to the head.

I don't believe I have experienced any such bug with 4.3 - I believe the bugs you mention are on the side of devs not updating their apps for 4.3.
Instead of randomly flashing a ROM without knowing where the problem lies, consider trying to narrow down when exactly this problem occurs.
Can you reliably reproduce it?
It may be hardware related, being on stock at least rules out your problem is caused by bugs in a custom ROM.
Are you rooted? Did you overclock/undervolt with a custom kernel? Are you running any apps to modify the lockscreen?

Happened to mine too. When I make a phone call or when I receive one touch is unresponsive until lock and unlock.

This is between the surfaceflinger and the kernel which contains the touch driver.
Try using the Nexus Factory Image Flasher tool from Google Developers and see if that helps, this will wipe all your data and I mean ALL so move your files to an external source.

Don't take this offensively... But I want to ask people who don't root their Nexus 7, why don't you? It seems like people who aren't rooted are running into problems more than the people who are rooted.

Even though I have all my phone rooted I never considered rooting the tablet. It runs stable enough, is a nexus device so will be updated to the latest android version which the hardware supports and most importantly Sky Go doesn't work reliably on rooted devices

My example of the tablet not running reliably is the EMMC slow down because fstrim wasn't enabled until 4.3 by default. While rooted, you had the option of manually running fstrim or using an app to do it. Though Sky Go seems like a reason I'd stay away from rooting. Some apps even bar you from using them. I'd probably using OTA Root Keeper and temporarily disable root.

I've never really experienced any slowdown, but strangely enough I was watching an xda video this morning about something related. I have tried OTA Root Keeper and similar apps and Sky Go seemed to detect them. Only way I found to do it was to as you say temp unroot, uninstall super user app etc. Found it too much of a pain.
If I did start experiencing issues like slowdowns etc, I wouldn't hesitate to root. One thing I am missing is per app DPI settings from PA.

I did actually use this and it did work on 4.2.2
Only problem is you have to re-authenticate all your root apps. Not a big issue, I suggested to the author that before uninstalling the root app it backed up the data then restored it on reinstalling.

What about using multi-ROM to dual boot a rooted ROM and a bone stock ROM? It would be the best of both worlds and you'd only need a simple reboot to switch back and forth.

I got the Android 4.3 OTA update more than two weeks ago. Since that time strange vertical lines starts to flicker when I do not touch the screen (See attached screenshot). The first time when I can see these ugly lines after turning on my device is the PIN code entering screen. After that I can see them on the home screen and every app as well. The problem does not occur if I charge my device.
This issue has nothing to do with developer options. I tested it with "disable HW overlays" option and other settings as well but it does not change anything with this. I also tried a factory reset and restoring a clean Android 4.3 using google's factory image for nexus 4.
It can not be a hardware issue because you can see it on the screenshot that was taken with my device. Furthermore, I had no problem with Android 4.2.2.
Has anyone encountered this problem? Can anyone help me?
Ewww, looks like a kernel graphical glitch.
You will have to reflash the kernel, do you have a custom recovery?

Currently nothing is enabled. I turned off every developer options. But I tried with different options from the "Hardware accelerated rendering" category. These options have no effect on the problem.

Do a factory reset ? If that doesn't work you can always flash the img file through adb. But in order to that you would have to unlock boot loader

A custom recovery is a recovery like on a computer but it is not stock so on Android there are Recovery's such has TWRP and CWM.
Flashing the stock kernel via recovery will not replace the Android OS, just the broken kernel.
Basically a custom recovery let's you wipe your device in many ways, repair the OS, Backups, Flashing kernels/ROMs/Fixes/Addons and much more.
If that fails then unlock the bootloader, go to the bootloader and use this tool to get everything back to normal: https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images#occamjwr66v
EDIT: Oops, flashing a custom recovery does not fix the kernel in the same time of course, you will have to flash that kernel using the flash feature.

Hi there
I have a strange problem with my i9505 i get it used so i don't really know what happend with this phone so my Problem is that my sgs4 just

It doesn't work with any speaker not even headset
Thanks for any help
i have the same condition before, but the reason is that i flashed a custom kernel. Consider that your device is on the stock rom or google edition, i guess there maybe a hardware problem.

I updated to android 4.4 Kitkat from Google factory images today on my 2012 Nexus 7 wifi 32gb and if you take a look at this video I just recorded (sorry about the quality), at second 14 approximately, you will see that when booting up, after the Google logo and before the new moving Dots boot animation, there is a weird effect on the screen that last a fraction of a second.
Is this happening to everyone on their nexus 7 wifi 2012 after updating to kitkat or is it just me??
Please tell me if yours has the same weird effect as mine or not.
Thanks in advance for the help!
Here's the video.

That's some sort of a bootloop? I see your unlocked, are you rooted?
I had issues with it stuck on the 4 circles boot, ended up fastboot flashing both the boot and system image and now up and running fine.

No, actually it's not on a bootloop, the nexus 7 is up and running fine, the problem I'm trying to show is the graphical glitch that you can see on the video at second 14 when the tablet is booting up between the Google logo and the new color dots animation.
I need to know if someone is experiencing the same problem as me after updating to kitkat and turning it on.

Same Thing
Yeah, it happens to me too.
I only noticed it after a few restarts, but I think it happens every time I reboot.
Yep, same thing here. On my end it looks like light-colored text output on a black background. It flashes by in a split second. Otherwise it boots and runs just fine.

I just side loaded the update to my n7. When I rebooted it glitches like that. It looked like 4 boot loader screens, then it went to the boot animation.
Could be harmless.

I managed to grab a screenshot from my own video. Turns out it's the "Backup Complete" screen from the system backup I did yesterday though TWRP. Why on earth would that flash by on every subsequent reboot? Very weird.

I actually recall seeing this oddity after applying the 4.4 update on stock recovery, unrooted. I used fastboot commands to flash boot.img and system.img from the Google factory image file. It appeared when I restarted. I didn't give it much thought at the time but did see that it kept happening on each reboot after that. I'm thinking what I saw might have been stock recovery. That's exactly what I am seeing in your screenshot, even the Android lying on his back.

Maybe I will try to flash back stock 4.3 image and see if this still happens, and if not, we'll know that is a little bug because of kitkat... Right?

I would say KitKat for sure. Nothing like this ever happened on prior updates. Please do report back if you still see it after flashing back to 4.3. I'm assuming after that you'll be flashing 4.4 again.

Ok, no problem. I'll let you all know how it went.
I'll flash 4.3 back to check if the problem is still there, and then I'll wait for the OTA and see what happens, cause maybe the OTA doesn't have this problem... But I doubt it... AND if the OTA takes to LONG to arrive I will be manually flashing kitkat again and see if the problem comes back...
I'll let your know!

Well I did it and I realized that with 4.2 to 4.3 with the "X" animation this graphic glitch doesn't appear but than even after an OTA update from 4.3 to 4.4.2 this issue came back. Is this normal or does anyone have a solution for this?

*BUMP*
Has anyone any further info on this issue? Granted its not a major one, but just an annoying niggle with what has been a decent update to 4.4.2. This problem along with the ones below are the remaining bugs I have on my stock rooted N7.
Laggy lockscreen when woken up and rotated - Part of the screen get stuck in portrait/landscape while the other has rotated.
When in an app and pressing back to exit out of it, sometimes it bounces back to another app.
Small pixelised graphics glitch at the top of the screen when switching users.
My LG G2 screen freezes and has black screen but the phone functions coz i can hear touch sounds. It happened after flashing Stock JB using FlashTool.
This happened to me when I downgraded from kitkat to JB rooted and installed a custom recovery and custom rom
