Every time I open a app that need portrait view, I get stuck in portrait mode until I restart the phone. Please help or is their anyone else out there with this same problem? Or wait for another PTA update.

I am finding the same issue. It seems to happen for me if I have been using Google Sky Map or Street View in Google Maps.
After using either the Auto Rotate stops working and I have to re-start the phone
Listed as a known issue in the sticky, guys.
The accelerometer becomes locked after using Google Sky Map. Its a bug either on GB or Sky Map/Street View apps themselves.

It happened to me using 20 different apps.

Google should fix this soon because this sucks plus, I don't want to hack the phone for a fix.

I think that it's gingerbread a software issue not a hardware issue.

I doubt it because I haven't had any issues like this in any other app besides skymap. Mind listing some of the apps you've noticed this in? I'll see if I can duplicate.

Well it's not that bad but, it's bad. especially when I purchase unlocked for hundreds of dollars and I had highly expected a great experience from gingerbread as a Google os. It happened in XP moto and maps and GPS but not all the time and the only fix is to restart the phone so it's a software problem. I also have a Samsung vibrant and never had this issue with it but they are similar hardware specs...

Similar hardware specs, yeah, but that doesn't rule out the fact that you might have picked up a phone with a bad piece of hardware. It could have been damaged in assembly, or shipment, or by an act of God.
I've only been able to duplicate this issue thus far in Sky Map. I just tried Street View on my phone and had no problems, and I'm not sure what those other apps you mentioned might be.
More information please.
Well if me and you and dozens of others who own this device are having somewhat the same issues it should not matter rather if it's the hardware that's at fault or software that's at fault but, indeed I would like to hope it's a software issue because it can be simply fixed with a ota update other then shipping back to bestbuy. This is a growing issue and it's only going to get bigger every day. Odd but Google+gingerbread=Epic Fail?

Hi
i'm having a weird problem with my gps.
I get up to 10 satellites in view but the gps keeps losing the connection.
The phone just came yesterday from Samsung with a new board. Also my galaxy never got so many satellites in view.
Any idea?
Thanks.

This is not a 'weird' problem anymore

Why?
The gps before didn't got more than 1 sat in view now i get about 10 so Samsung did improve something by replacing the main board.
Is there any other config or rom to improve GPS performance?
Hi everyone
So I update my N9005 to the official polish kitkat firmware and I've been experiencing episodes of screen unresponsiveness very often. Anybody else has this problem? Anybody managed to fix it?
P.S I'm aware of the counterfeit/unoriginal s-view flip covers issue which I'm having as well but the thread isn't about it.
Hope someone has a solution.

Hello, I have been experiencing moments of "freezing" or unresponsiveness as well.
For me, it seemed to be due to chrome or using power saving mode. (People in another forum were blaming their droid maxxs freezing problem on chrome) I disabled chrome and disabled power saving mode.
Then I started using opera. I experienced another moment of unresponsiveness using opera without the power saving mode.
I was thinking back to the first times that it happened and it seemed to be paired to the wifi download and upload symbol being active in upload and download activity.
I know that correlation does not mean causation, but I think it is worth exploring if the network activity is causing it to somehow hang.
This bizzar occurance made me perform a factory wipe leading to another round of issues involving processing err_0000, but that is another story; sadly, it didn't even fix the issue.
OP, are you still experiencing the moments of unresponsiveness? If you are, have you noticed the events that are correlated with the event?
Has anybody else experienced this or found a remedy?
It could be one of the apps from the play store that is not playing nice with kitkat, but due to the multitude of other issues, I'd say it is a kitkat or touchwiz flaw.
Thanks for any help.

I had an issue with screen not responding sometimes .....I figured out it was due to the flip case (original by Samsung). Although lately I haven't experienced that either.
Try using the original non flip case and see if you still have the issue.

I have never had a s-view flip case on mine. I use holster iblason case that has no interaction with the screen.
This only started for me once I upgraded to kitkat.

If your phone isnt hanging up and freezing, that gives me hope. I'll gsm reset, clear the cache and then flash.

I just cleared the cache, factory wiped, and installed the Russian update N900XXUDNC4 and so far, the phone is a lot smoother. No hangups in the browser yet, but time will tell lol.
It is annoying setting up the phone like new lol. I'll update the post as to if I have moments of freezing or the screen becoming unresponsive.

Had this problem too, as well as lots of lag. Reflashed and did a factory reset. Took care of both.

Battery life is looking good. Power Saving off, bluetooth on and connected to my smart watch.
I made one short call. I don't talk on the phone that much. I mostly use it for Internet browsing, music, and instant messaging/texting. I'll update on Tuesday when I have a full day at school.
Keep in mind though that the n9005 is the lte version. I have a n900, the non lte international variant; our battery life may be different.
Edit: 4/20/2014 same charge 70% 1 day 6 hours bluetooth, wifi, gps, and 1 Gmail account in sync.

Even I experienced the same. My phone came with Kitkat installed. Freezing happens when a webpage is loading or the time i turn on Sync etc. strange thing is phone seems smooter when power save mode turned on.
I think it may be a problem that was not fixed until the March 31st 2014 KitKat build. I have been using Chrome heavily since I installed the most recent official rom; I have not experienced any lag or hanging system wide or in the browser. It reminds me of 4.3.
When I wiped and reinstalled the previous rom, I noticed the lag and unresponsiveness right away.
I'm going to use the browser heavily next week. If I have no issues, I think it may be safe to say that the bug was fixed in the latest kitkat with March 31st 2014 build date.
People with lag, do you have the lte variant or the regular SM-N900? I'm starting to think only the SM-N900 are being impacted by sour Sammy updates.
And if you guys wipe your phones, make sure to turn reactivation lock off because it could cause an error that will not recognize your real Sammy account and password. This phone has become stressful; I'm not updating it again lol

I'm having really bad battery problems with my girlfriends phone.
We were running pa jelly bean and we bought a new battery to try fix the problem as its quite an old phone.
Still had the same problem so tried pa kit kat. That didn't fix it either.
Basically the phone will charge to 100% then go down normally to about 40 or 60% then it will totally die and when you put it back on charge it will he at zero again. So she's really not getting a use out of the phone at all. Am I going to need to flash stock again? Anyone had this problem before?
Thanks

Hey guys..
I've been using my Nexus 4 for more than a year now. Everything was working fine until a few hours ago when my phone stopped registering touches in the center area of the screen. I didn't drop my phone and I had it in my pocket the whole time! I'm freaking out as I have no idea what happened. Flashed a new rom and kernel, but the problem persists in the recovery too. What am i going to do???? :'(
What rom and kernel you currently use?

@S.H.A.D.E
I suggest you revert to stock and give it to the service, else they can say you messed around and spoiled it..
Which Service Centre are you going to give to? The one at Shastri Road?
Hope you get it fixed soon!
