Hi
Before I take the plunge along with many others
Can anybody who has updated to 4.4 with the official LG update give there view on Pros and cons of the update
A reading a few its not much faster and no extras !
eg) Faster ? Dim Screen Problem ? Extra Apps?
I like
Generally I think it is a bit smoother and generally everything is running better for me some apps like mxplayer no like kitkat but the stock is fine until they update. Do not update if you want to be able to switch between roms, tried to reinstall cwm/twrp and for me gets stuck in fastboot so you will need to be patient till they find a new exploit. New keyboard in black is pretty awesome and transparent bars definitly refine the look as well as the white notification icons. Couple new lg apps like On screen phone so can control on pc and copy files etc pretty cool but I think its novelty value.

If you are not intending on going aosp it is definitely worth the upgrade as you should see apps running better because of the way kitkat uses the ram, I have to say even though not a huge difference in UI it definitely is better optimized and using less ram for the system. Definitely if you can get 4.4.2 do it, if you choose to stay lg stock I would suggest you install xposed framework and change it how you want to be :victory:

I'm using MXPlayer on Mahdi-rom with Kitkat and I haven't seen any problems. What are the problems you're talking about?

on the stock 4.4.2 have some issues with playback. Video quality seems a bit more choppy, and the colour/contrast seems off vs the stock player. I have heard other people have couple problems but can't say for all. Maybe it is using wrong codec but I just using the automatic setup...

I've read some accounts that MXPlayer had some Kitkat problems a few months ago, but they were supposed to have been fixed back in December. I'm not seeing problems at all. You might want to try re-installing MXPlayer to see if that fixes it for you.

I switched to BS Player Free as my standard video player as I have long felt it to be the better choice.
Lastpass!
Lastpass Premium users will love the upgrade. The Lastpass app can natively fill in usernames and passwords on websites in Chrome, without having to activate the Lastpass input method. It just detects the login page, pops up a prompt, and you hit yes to log in. Fantastic.
Aside from that, it seems smoother. When you swipe down the notification menu, the settings button is in the corner where it should be, so that's nice. Oh, and the LG keyboard (which I love to bits) now has a bunch of themes. There's a chance that I just didn't notice them before the update.
Basically, I've had no problems at all, and a bunch of apps are now able to make use of Kitkat features. It's not so much "why would I upgrade?" as "why on Earth wouldn't I upgrade?"

I like bsplayer but the ac3 issue the player during the codec dispute leans me toward the stock player. I use bsplayer as my backup player for troubled files.
One issue I've run into with 4.4 build 20a are phantom screen presses when turning on the screen again after not using the g pad for a bit. I usually just urn off the screen for 5 seconds and then turn it back off and everything is working again. I should add I did a dirty install over 4.2.2 to 4.4.2, so chances are a wipe of the data would fix it. I'm going to do the 2 cache wipes and see if I get the problem again. I'm posting this here to see if anyone else has the problem.

When I had my G2 KK made knock on much more responsive. So far, for me, KK has made no difference on my G-Pad.

Was it really broken to begin with? I found that once you got used to knocking at the right place with the right force applied, it works almost all the time. The KK update seems not to change much, if anything about this.
Now, for some reason KK has been causing the stock video player to skip and hold frames much more than usual. I use it to play videos out via slimport a lot, and after the update a simple .mp4 was skipping forward several seconds on video, until the audio caught up. Must be some sort of memory leak, but any thoughts on what can be done? Is it possible to de-install and then reinstall the stock player without factory reset?
MX Player was my go-to before and it still works. I'd switched to the stock because I don't like the ads in the free version of MX, but danged if it isn't one of the best stock players around.
Mark
Maybe because I had the G2 to compare it against, but after KK my G2 would immediately turn on first time nearly every time. My GPad still takes 3-5 tries even after KK.
The way I solved the issue with knock on/off is I knock three times instead of two.

For me, 4.4.2 seems a little smoother and faster. I was using Nova Launcher because the LG launcher seemed a bit less fluid. It is much better now. Nova is still smoother doing some things but not enough for me to feel I have to keep using it. I have gone back to using the stock launcher.
Other than that, not a big deal although I didn't expect it to be. It is not a huge Android update update. 4.4 is mostly just smoother.

I agree everything seems smoother and faster, web browsing is definitely faster, I don't notice any real difference with the screen brightness but I never really had a problem with my screen. For my use not much of a difference from 4.2.2 but overall I am happy with the improvements Kit Kat adds to the GPad.

Now that 3.1 is finally out is everyone pretty satisfied with it? I know I am. Seems like a very smooth tablet experience now. Feel sorry for the guys who traded in there Iconia's and couldn't wait for the update.
It's pretty good, although my A500 was already pretty responsive with 3.0. Still, I do notice a slight improvement.

One of the biggest improvements i noticed off the bat was youtube. Loads great now without stuttering.
I gotta say the mouse support is pretty spiffy. Overall it seems a lot smoother and snappier. I haven't tested it fully yet, but video support is definately better. It now seems to play all the videos that my Gtab plays. The one semi-disappointment is that while some widgets can be re-sized, I can't seem to make them smaller. They go bigger no problem, but smaller is a no-go on all the ones i've tried.

don't notice any difference
To be honest I don't really notice a difference. After the first rebot I actually found the performance slower. Rebooted once more and it now runs much like it did before. I think I'm one of the fortunate ones who didn't experience any issues under 3.0.1.
No support for Xbox 360 controllers at this point, the ring just keeps blinking.

It seems like it fixed cell stand by issue
Mine is rooted running Virtuous Asus w/Thor's latest. I have not seen, read, or experienced anything that has convinced me to jump on 3.1. I am very happy to keep my current rig and wait for a nice stable custom ROM.
I can now plug my digital camera into the A500 and with 1 click have all my pics download
it is a nice improvement from 3.0 . Then again this would be my first real update on any android software going back to the original mt3g days.
I have noticed that my wifi icon shows that I have horrible connection even when I'm next to the router. Snappier, nicer, better feel I am glad I forced my wife to buy this and the fact that xda talks all about this unit.
If it was not for y'all I would be lost.

Although my tablet does seem a bit smoother now, it refuses to play any of my videos i put on there (moboplayer, arcmediapro, act 1, rockplayer lite, none seem to work now?) gonna try moving the vids to "movies" folder and trying the stock player and see what happens.
Is it me or does it seem that the random shut downs are not happening anymore with 3.1?
Im monitoring for a while now, i havent had none yet.
It was the only thing i was bothered with a bit, but it would never occur to me, to trade the A500 for another tablet, im loving it since day one.

One thing I've noticed is video playback is a lot better. Rockplayer lite and moboplayer work fine on mine although mobo sometimes fcs. I'm sure rockplayer didn't let me play vids in hardware decoding mode before. It would always fail but now it works.

I had the same issue in Moboplayer and change the settings to be "Soft decoding by default" This seems to have fixed the issue.

Since 3.1 I seem to get randomly booted out of the browser, but not a proper force close. I do lose all open tabs.
Also the onscreen keyboard now seems a lot more laggy
3.1 wass not bad. Better than 3.01, but still a little sluggish compared to virtuous galaxy. I am headed back to that rom.
What I'd like to see is for you to post your reviews/comments comparing 4.2.2 vs 4.3. Tell us what the differences you've seen, the good the bad and so on. If there's a specific app that works awesome now because of the new graphic update, what apps are having issues, etc.. Have you noticed a difference in the pictures taken with the camera. I'd like to see this in here so those that are updating will be able to see what others in the forum are experiencing since their upgrade.
I find that my phone boot faster compared to before, which is always nice. I've taken a few pictures and I see a modest increase in quality and the new menu is easy to use and make sense, style-wise. I've heard some complains about the Netflix app, going black and such, but I've had no issue with this myself. I did have to do a cold boot this morning for some reason but not sure if this can be attributed to the update or not.

Hi,
Since upgrading to 4.4 I'm experiencing stutter/jitter on YouTube videos.
I've tried factory wiping the device and it's the same, I've flashed the SinLessROM and it's the same. Only 4.3 didn't have the issue.
Is anyone else experienced this and is there a solution??
Thanks!
EDIT:
I would like to gather some data of units having/not having this issue respectively to see if I can isolate the cause:
If possible, please can you supply the following information:
1) How you upgraded to 4.4 (OTA, sideload, custom build of official 4.4. ROM, etc)
2) Are you using stock/custom kernel (if custom, which one?)
3) If you factory reset/wiped at any stage
4) Version of YouTube app
5) Link to an HD YouTube video that you can play without any stutter (it may be I/we are just choosing 'bad' videos)
I was using this video for testing and get the stutter on the device, so fi you can play this video as well and report back that would be great: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6v2L2UGZJAM
Thanks guys!
Just checked and mine seems to not be as smooth as it was before as well.
Somewhat related, I have the LG Nexus 7 phone with everything stock on it and the YouTube app despite buffering the video properly, still plays back the video a bit stuttery. I'm running the KitKat OS on it as well. The same videos play fine using the browser but the quality isn't as good (pixelization), despite it being HQ. They also play fine using Freedi YT player at the same quality as the app.
I thought I was the only one until I saw this thread! Pretty sloppy work from Google.
It's running great for me. I have ART enabled, give that a try and see it the problem persists.
Mmm I tried that too but it's still the same. Looking around a bit more people seem to have had issues with some versions of the YouTube app doing this in the past. What version do you have may I ask??
Are other video players effected as well?
Same problem here
Just finished updating to 4.4 Kit Kat. Fired up YouTube and noticed jittery/frames issue before seeing this thread. It's not a huge problem but it's definitely not as smooth prior to update. Warning for heavy youtube users maybe wait out on updating? It's only a little annoying short second jitters here and there.
My youtube is up to date with latest version installed. Lets hope youtube releases an update for Kit Kat OS.
My overall first impressions with Kit Kat so far is that it does feel snappier with the app drawer scrolling, multi-task switcher and touchscreen responsiveness. I'm a heavy Clash Of Clans player so I instantly knew and feel the difference right away.
I have an Ipad Air, Ipad mini (1st gen) and this nexus 7. I'm very happy with the touchscreen pinch to zoom improvement in this update. The screen definitely feels close to par with the ipad screens now. Not a fan boy or anything because I enjoy both iOS and Android!

Yes that's fine, I live in Holland so even the mediocre connection I have is 60mbps Down / 6mbps Up - it's not a buffering type of stutter but more of an issue with the decoding and rendering of the video. Like a driver is not optimised correctly or there is a memory bottleneck.

Sorry for the question, but english it´s not my mother tongue(from Spain). When you say sttuter, you mean in image & sound, image only or sound only?
I have a N7 2013 with 4.4 and want to test this.
Thank you very much. Regards.

My fault, I should have said! It is actually just the video that stutters for me. The audio plays perfectly. It just jitters slightly with the video, like it 'sticks' briefly especially during panning shots.
Does anybody else with a SGS4 GPe feel like it performs worse graphically on 4.4 than it did on 4.3? I don't have a lot of examples, but one thing that I noticed is the "page flipping" animation in the e-book reader CoolReader played fine in 4.3 but is not kind of choppy in 4.4. This specific animation to begin with is something which I assume would take very little resources, and which worked fine not only in 4.3 but also even on older lesser phones altogether.

That's very possible. The app has been acting funky in other ways lately... crashing sometimes even. I haven't used my phone for much else since upgrading, so hopefully you're right and it's limited to that app. Thanks.
Did you factory reset? I always recommend a FR after a major Android release. I kept 4.2, but didn't FR after the 4.3 or 66Y updates. I did so after Kitkat and it positively screems.
I also used ART from the get-go for about 48 hours, the switched to DALVIK for about 48 hours. I've switched back to ART permanently. It makes a subtle yet appreciable difference at this point.
No issues here. I will say ART vs Dalvik does make a huge speed difference, though. I ran ART out of the gate, but am back on Dalvik for now due to some issues with certain apps and ART that will hopefully be fixed in 4.4.1.

I'm not seeing it, but am currently rooted.
Anyone have the zip?
cant see it either...
it got available for the shield portable devices. i read that news on androidpolice.com
but didn't know that nvidia said it is available for our TN7 (which isn't true for the moment). maybe it needs a few days to roll out to every one.

Seriously, I'm disappointed too. We waited months for it and now it lacks it's charm.
Some people are saying that it's faster than before and even high-end games are not lagging even a bit.
I didn't try any game like that yet, but it still feels a bit laggy anyway.
Plus, the thing I miss the most is the split system of notifications on the left, and quick setting on right. And we can't change performance settings like before such as to use 2-cores. My quick settings widget is not working either.
I just updated, and I'm already missing my 'old tablet'.

Thanks for that. That's one problem less.
Man i used to love this tablet a lot! It's a bit ruined now.
I still think NVIDIA should release smaller updates to better the layout and options. The notification bar is so narrow, it feels like I'm using my phone. Though, I don't have high hopes given how much time it took for this update. :fingers-crossed:
just a heads up System boot and recovery images have been pulled and test for Lollipop and uploaded to server. Now to work on updating the super tool to version 3.0 Lollipop

this update is a joke, now the tablet feels like a cheap **** with crappy graphics chip.. why the hell did they released if its gonna lag so badly ? if they said this update dont come because of this then i would be ok... now games that didnt lag before like clash of clans lags.. its like micro freeze what the hel lis this nonsense ? do i have to buy a new tablet now ? and i have a weird battery bug, it goes from 100% backwards to like 97% and below even if it says its charging with cable in....
Some improvements are there

The stylus recognition has improved immeasurably ,and thats the only positive thing that i can say about the update.
I'm going to try clearing out all the app caches or reinstall my apps. This is so much slower than before, and it commonly freezes up for a few seconds...especially when switching apps.
Before, we could control our processor to save battery by reducing the number of cores used. That option is gone completely.
I see no noticeable upside to the lollipop update.

Vibrate actually u can access the performance option its just hidden from us, check this thread how to access it.. for me it doesnt help 2 cores or 4 cores 30fps limit or 60.. still lags even basic games

Neat app but aside from the fact it's non native, its just too many steps to enable what I want. So I won't end up using it.

Before everyone trashes this update, someone should try a full factory reset... I've fixed many issues with previous updates by doing this, and with an update this big, I'd suspect it could help.
