It also enables the fstrim feature by default so there should be no more slow downs.

I'm confused. I thought support for trim commands has been in since 4.2 or even earlier. I'm positive that the file systems were mounted with the -discard option before this most recent update. My understanding is that this causes trim commands to be sent to the flash whenever files are deleted. The tradeoff is that this involves a near constant but consistent performance hit, but keeps write amplification from getting out of hand. Is my understanding wrong? If so, how? If not, what has actually changed in 4.3?

I checked the mount options for /data and /cache and I no longer see -discard. Did 4.3 remove the -discard option from mount in favor of running trim opportunistically when the device is idle?

All I know is fstrim was introduced in 4.2 but wasn't enabled by default. It now is in 4.3.

N7 has a companion core. It only switches to the quad core when needed. I think it thinks it doesn't need to.

somehow i think that is a lesson for life in general.

I don't feel that 4.3 helped the audio on my N7 whatsoever. Some Youtube videos for me even at max volume are hard to hear with the sink running gently a few feet away.

Ok, please forgive me but if it's not enabled then how did one go about and enables this then.....

so, in the tittle you ask if nexus 7 is a tablet, then in the message you affirm is not a phone.
Then, 4.2 will be untouched version of the 4.2 system.
I really don't think this thread is needed at all. Common sense can answer all you questions.
It is most definitely a tablet!
But I am not sure why I should be thrilled about multiuser management.
The thing with nexus 7 is that, while its no phone nor a 10", you always take it with you.
So in my opinion there is not much point in multiuser management for me.
But to come back to your question: IT IS A TABLET!
It's a Tablet that is obvious, also FYI for now on AOSP will share same UI regardless of if it's a phone or a tablet.

I can't predict Google anymore. When they released Nexus 7 without landscape support, who would think it's not a tablet? Do you remember people keep asking for tablet ui? Do you remember all kinds of hacks to make Nexus 7 a tablet?

Google chose the UI so anyone who isnt familiar with Android would have the same user experience between phone and tablet, sort of like the iphone and ipad. Multiuser accounts will be there, (one unified OS) people will have kids, spouses, nieces, and nephews no matter the size of the tablet.

4.3 leaked/in testing Galaxy S4

Seems as Nexus owners we're not the first to get the update this time. It could turn out to be an elaborate fake but probably genuine as Google are an experimenting company and have released two flagship devices with a vanilla Android option (although they're not "nexus"). From what I've read there doesn't appear to be any big changes (if any actually visible) and more fixes/optimisations.

Flashed it on my GS4 and working like a charm (and it's the international version of course). No root yet, so i'll switch back to 4.2.2 to get my apps lol (can't restore through TB Pro duh).
It's just a leak so don't worry about it. The Nexus devices will definitely get the 4.3 first.

Cool, I'm another few months away from a handset upgrade and so it definitely makes these phones an even better proposition, having access to stock android goodness. Was impressed seeing how quickly someone had put a vanilla 4.2.2 ROM together for the HTC One, then seen this and was very surprised.
Its good to see really as it shows that Google and the handset makers are finally getting why people like android so much and that is the option of choice and customisation. It may not be the exact reason for doing so but they must be conscious of it. As the last I/O conference showed, it was very developer orientated

They knew about this beforehand, they had issues getting the proprietary junk from Qualcomm for the N4. The sad part is there isn't really a viable competitor to the Snapdragon series that doesn't have the same problems.

Basically Qualcomm not providing the GPU drivers.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
The Adreno is a Qualcomm brand, though. I wouldn't expect ATI-AMD to release a new driver for my GTX 660.
It looks like JBQ implied that the reason is similar to whatever caused Google to remove the Nexus 4 images back in December. Back then, it was rumored to be due to Nexus 4 having the LTE option before it was removed. We know an LTE-enabled Nexus 7 is coming, so it could be related to that as well.

He's probably referring to JWR build instead of JSS.
It is pretty sad when the lead of AOSP feels forced to go because of all the BS legal wrangling.
And frankly, shame on Google for not getting this worked out YET AGAIN before launching a device. The whole point of the nexus line is a showcase for developers, and if the developers can't get the access to the files to restore their devices, then that point becomes moot.
Bummer for all...

This is some exciting stuff, can't wait for it to become the default runtime. Project Butter 2.0, if you will.
I started to use ART too since yesterday. I've tested all my apps, and the only thing that doesn't work is WhatsApp and Titanium Backup, the rest works fine. Not a big deal anyway, my friends switched to LINE already, ART is definitely faster.
I am on a port, and I have just tested ART for an hour and I gotta say the speed is equivalent to the PSX rom !

New batches being shipped (build #311k)

So I actually posted this in the RMA thread but it just got lost in all the posts. Plus I can't find it posted anywhere else.
First two phones I had were 310k, both had faults and had to download the patch before using the phone.
My third phone is 311k, no faults and it came with KitKat preinstalled (no patch to download)
To check what build (batch) you have, look on your box where it shows the model #, imei # etc and look for S/N. The first 4 characters = build #.
I'm going to try and keep a log of all the build numbers and see if there are any changes to the phone like with the Nexus 4.
So.. so far:
310k - Need to install KitKat - Seems to have quality issues from my experience
311k - Preinstalled KitKat - Quality control seems better
This is just based off of three phones though. More information is needed.
Mine downloaded the update at first boot, i don't have the box here right now, but i will report the build version tomorrow
Edit:
ye version 310k here too, lets see what the rma one will be, it should be here next week
yep mine says 310k and mine updated when i turned it on.. kitkat was NOT pre installed
When mine came in the mail November 15th it already had the update patched on it straight out of the box so i guess I had the second batch. Mine is 310K
Mines 310k had to update to kit kat

All N5 comes with KitKat. The update wasn't from JB to KitKat!

Can you please specify what you mean specifically by better quality control?

I have an 311K (just got it today) and while it has LTE (unlike my 310), the vibration motor now sounds like a laser beam...? :crying:
I got a 311K yesterday - no update was needed.
- The camera is slow
- Vibration is weaker than my Galaxy Nexus, but still noticeable when it rings in my pocket
- The speaker seems pretty loud to me. I can feel it vibrate a bit when I play music
310k, everything seems to be good

Technically, they all come with "Key Lime Pie" preinstalled (an early build of 4.4). They're patched to KitKat right after startup.
Today I got my N5. It is 311k. No issues so far. No screen issues, no rattle sounds. 32gb black

New batch of manufacture.. Nothing to see here. It will continue to change until EOL
