Have you changed your DPI? Can you see things like beautiful widgets as compatible with your device?

I havent changed anything in the build.prop. beatiful widget doesnt say incompatible.. it just happend out of nowhere..
I found the solution.
1) go to settings>apps>all and clear the cache and clear data for google play store
2) go to settings> accounts and sync and remove all the synced accounts
3) open google play and register your id again and it works all fine once again.

Yeah the same thing happened to me.. That's exactly what I did to fix it as well. Wonder what caused it though

I'm having the issue with my 2nd Batch Nexus 4. I already have a Nexus 4 from the 1st batch and it has no issues. On my 2nd batch Nexus 4 I can't install and I can't update applications.(Right out of the box there are 6 applications that needs to be updated) I receive error code 403. As I said before I have another Nexus 4 and it doesn't has any issues installing or upgrading applications but, with my 2nd batch Nexus 4 it's a different story. I received it today and have been trying to update and to install applications the whole day and always get the same error. I tried several solutions from the forums and nothing fix it. Since the phone is right out of the box, I reset the phone and set everything twice but I still receive the same error. The only difference between my 1st batch Nexus 4 and my 2nd batch Nexus 4 is that the 1st Nexus 4 came with JB 4.1 then an OTA update was installed and the 2nd Nexus 4 came with JB 4.2 already installed.
So, don't know what else to do. Let me know if anyone has the solution or is anyone having the same issue with 2nd batch Nexus 4??

I tried your solution but it didn't worked.
I tried something different.
1. I unlocked the bootloader and rooted the phone but it stayed with the same issue.
2. I un-rooted the phone, relocked the bootloader and flashed the JB 4.0 (checked again and the issue was still present.)
3. I leave the phone connected to the wi-fi until it downloaded the JB 4.2.1 update, installed the update and voila..it's working now!

[Q] Where are the software buttons in landscape mode?

After updating to JB 4.3, I noticed that when entering landscape mode (launcher screen or any app), the software buttons no longer appear.
For non-fullscreen apps, this is fine, twist it to portrait, and buttons reappear... but fullscreen apps like games... just not working.
Any solution?
Is there a new settings to hide the software buttons?
Nexus7 WiFi unrooted
[EDIT]
Factory Reset from Recovery menu (Stock) solved the problem.

Aside from rooting and going stock 4.3
Are there any other options? (waiting for 4.3.1 or 4.4 is probably out of the question)

Yes, it's not rooted... yet

I would suggest dirty flashing another custom Rom etc cleanrom but your bootloader is not unlocked and if you unlock it you will lose all you data..I don't have much knowledge but I would use Titanium backup, back up my files and afterwards do a factory reset, if that does not work a custom Rom or flashing a new factory image

If your Nexus7 is set to a different language than English, you might find yourself in the same situation, every now and then.
The solution is to revert the language to English, power down the tablet and restart it.
You may then switch back to the language you had before.

worked - thanks

WOW thanks for the tip man! wouldn't have even though about that. was sure some app or game was causing this. searched google and didn't see anything about it other then here.
anyway, the bug happened again and your tip worked without reseting so thanks. :good::good::good::good::good:
do you know if this is an android 4.3 bug, nexus 7 bug, or something else? will this keep on happening forever??

It happens in 4.4 Kitkat as well!
It happens in 4.4 Kitkat as well.
Switching from Hebrew to English (US), and then restarting solved it.
It was OK when I went back to Hebrew, however after restarting in Hebrew the bug came back again!
Very annoying.
Can anyone tell me if it happens in other devices?

Try going to Apps>Google Settings>Android Device Manager and selecting both options. Also have you enabled ADM in settings>security>device administrators? One other thing to try Access location has to be enabled under Google Settings>Location.

This is an old bug....and I do not understand why the 4.3 release has this bug.

Just did it. Same thing as before !

Got it without any problems. Google Play Services updated automatically and I was able to detect my location from the website.
Very handy, I usually keep GPS and all that off but I guess I will have to leave it on just incase.

[Q] Receiving multiple OTA updates even after successfully updating to Android 4.3

Hi all,
After searching for answers to this issue not only in this forum but elsewhere on the web, and failing to find any reference to it, I decided to create this thread.
I have a non-rooted Nexus 7 (2012), which received an OTA update to Android 4.3 some three weeks ago. I have successfully completed the updated, after which my device's build number became JWR66V. So far, so good. :good:
But, days later, my device displayed a new notification that a "System update [was] downloaded". I thought it could be a new, different update addressing bugs, so I "touch[ed] to install". Again, everything went smoothly. I checked however the build number and it was still JWR66V.
Days later, new notification: "System update downloaded". I installed it to get rid of the notification.
And again and again for the fifth time now. It usually happens after I reboot.
I wonder whether anyone is experience similar issue - and whether this is an issue at all.
Any help or information is highly appreciated.
Thanks!

Is your kernel 3.1.10-g1e8b3d8? Maybe there is some sort of mismatch.

Thanks for the reply, Groid, but this doesn't seem to be the issue.
As you can see from the two screenshots attached - one taken before I 'updated' (note the "System updated downloaded" icon on the top left corner) and the second after the 'update' - there is no difference between kernel and build number versions. In fact, I believe nothing happens whenever I 'touch to update' (i.e. install the 'new' update)...
I find this strange, even more so as I haven't read about other persons experiencing the same... it does not cause me trouble, but it's annoying and curious, therefore, any feedback is still welcomed.

Having the same problem on my n7, am rooted, but have a question: if I install this update will i lose root? Should i install ota rootkeeper?

I too have just noticed the update icon as of today's date, despite having successfully updated my tablet at the beginning of the month.
Unlike the OP my tablet was rooted and unlocked so I had to use the instructions in this thread

I'm having the problem on my N7 as well. Haven't found a solution yet. I'm gonna try searching more

maybe just re-flash it with 4.3 rom (using pc), and it should be ok

Sorry to hear you guys are experiencing same issue, but at least I'm not alone.
I'm still facing same issue. The New update icon shows up whenever I restart my n7. And it has successfully updated all the times. It's more annoying than anything, but, still, shouldn't be happening.

did you originally install 4.3 from the OTA?
i went from 4.2.2 to 4.3 via fastboot, and then received this update via OTA. and this hasn't happened to me. (yet, but hopefully not at all)

To remove the notification, long press the message in the notification dropdown, press the app info popup, and uncheck the show notifications box. This worked for me.

Installed
I installed it, nothing changed and i kept root.

That's because the latest 4.3 build is JWR66Y (the screenshots show JWR66V) which is a small update incorporating some critical security fixes. So that's probably why it's still prompting for an update.

I've got the same problem and that's how I got rid of it. Essentially, for one reason or another, the new update V->Y build fails.

4.4.4 is up on Google's Website - Just sayin :)

So here is the link to the 4.4.4 file. Interesting......
If you install this let us know what you find new...prob just a quick bug fix I would imagine.

I hate that feeling when you JUST finish updating your Nexus 5 phone to Android 4.4.3 and literally two minutes later an update to 4.4.4 gets released! UGH! Still waiting for LTE for Nexus 7.

What in the world Google... Something musta been a big time fail in the code for them to release a full update like this that quick...

Well people, the OTA doesn't look like it affected very much. I usually just flash whatever image from the factory image that I need because of the changes I make in the system but I just now decided for grins to flash the OTA and see if I would get any errors and I was pleasantly surprised to not see the "unexpected contents error." It happens, rarely, but it does happen. Running ElementalX kernel, busybox installed, modified calculator app in system/app, 4.4 sounds in system/media/audio/ui, modified mixer_paths.xml in system/etc, Z2 bionic and dalvik, running xposed and the OTA flashed with no errors! Woop Woop! Did have to flash the supersu zip in recovery. All good!

What is wrong with Google? Why is Deb being left out?
Sheesh... Feeling abandoned...

I don't understand why Deb is being left out either. Maybe we'll just jump into the new android version when it's announced at Google I/O.

Somehow I don't expect that'll be what happens.
Considering there had to be a 4.4.2_r2 for deb before, I suspect that whatever inspired that (which was Verizon compatibility) is the holdup now.

Does anyone have the OTA URL?

Well, 4.4.4 does put us 2 releases behind now.
I can imagine a *good* developer working out a DRY unified patch (verizon & others) for 4.4.3 and 4.4.4. But, along comes management and says either (a) verizon does not accept, or (b) others like att/t-mobile/etc do not accept. A drama ensues and we have big delays.
Anyway, "4.4.2 really?" is the perfect question to *pound* on google during IO. lol

There's a theory going around that it's Verizon that is to blame for the delay, but maybe it's not the reason
