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.

Thank you guys for checking this out for me and letting me know!!
I was afraid that I was the only one with this problem
Do you think Google is actually aware of this problem??

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.

That's odd, but I don't even have TWRP recovery on my Nexus 7, mine is completely stock.
I need to know if someone who is running completely stock kitkat is having the same issue I have please.
Thanks in advance!

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.

Yeah your right! That's the android bot lying on his back from recovery!!
I haven't noticed it!
So what the heck is wrong here??
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?
Thanks for all your help!

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.
Ok, Since updating to kitkat the one that brought us the knock code srcurity, I've been having a few problems.
I have a SIM free D802 with 80220B kitkat OTA update and here are some of the problems.
1 battery life is halved
2 stock keyboard lags at times (one of being now as I'm swyping this)
3 quiet mode is intermittent and the set quiet mode timer doesn't work at all now.
4 all my lg apps including system and os have a date of 1970
I've tred factory reset and it's still the same.
Anyone else experiencing this?
Have i had a bad flash? If so how do i reflash the update?
Thanks in advance Andy

Are you sure you have knock code? As the 20b in my case did not have it. The 20d update had knock code.
You can Check for how to get back to stock tutorials and download your latest kdz.

Yeah sorry it's 80220d it was a typo.

Did a quick software update check and KitKat is downloading, and IOS 8 is installing on my mini.

Let me know how the kitkat version is if your on a US variant 5110 I canceled the download

Great. Found it OTA and downloading right now. The update package is 712.89MB Finally!
How is it running?
Sent from my GT-N5110 using Tapatalk
I took the plunge and updated, so far it's running great for me! Memory usage seams to be about the same, tablet feels a tad faster (could be my imagination). On first boot it was using a lot of ram, turned off, booted into recovery and wiped cache, and rebooted. After that ram usage was pretty much the same on my device as it was with 4.2.2.

I have an Indian variant Note 4 running marshmallow 6.0.1 with the latest updates.
I'm experiencing an issue related to microphone.
When my phone boots microphone works fine but if i don't use my device for some time like 2-3 hours then i could use microphone only for voice calling but not for internet calling(WhatsApp, fb messenger,Skype,etc) and for recording audio or video. Also cant launch okay google with hotword during this time and unable to give voice commands. Then when i restart the device microphone starts working completely fine for all these.
help guys.......??

If you are in Stock rom just boot into recovery and do a factory reset (this will delete all the apps and data )

Then it's definitely a hardware defect you may go to the service center and check

Hi guys
I have an s7 edge dual sum and recently updated to helios rom, nouget. I was on superman rom previous but didn't like the feel/look of new update. All my apps were working fine there.
With new Rom, random apps force me to close. It doesn't happen right away after opening the app (airbnb app for example). It will happen after 30 seconds and it happens every time.
Any suggestions to fix this issue? I like this rom and would like to keep using it.
Did You wipe data before flashing Nougat rom?
