Bugfix wishlist for KitKat 4.4 - Nexus 4 General

Please post any bugs currently floating around on JB 4.3 so we can check them off when KitKat 4.4 is released.
I certainly hope KitKat fixes the .84 radio crash bug...

I think we don't need thousands of threads for the same subjet. We already have a kit-kat thread, so please don't open another one... Yes, I know it's not exactly the same topic, but if this can be discussed in the other thread the forum will be cleaner

4.1.2 or 4.2.2

So is 4.2.2 From Mikes Rom a leak? or is it a FULL HTC released rom.
Is 4.2.2 more stable or faster than 4.1.2? Reason why is cause Im running his V9 of the rom which is 4.1.2 I like being able to have the international data icons instead of the stupid AT&T ones.
I think it's a moded version of the latest OTA from HTC

Its not an OTA, at least not yet. 4.2.2 hasn't been officially pushed to any HTC One phones. I read in another thread that this the leak is probably the version that HTC will push to the One but right now it isn't an official OTA.
It is supposed to be better on battery life and fix a few bugs as well as added a few things, like quick settings toggles in the notification tray for example.

Hey, well we can get some pre-alpha 4.4 AOSP builds maybe, but these will definitely have bugs, i do believe adam has built a 4.4. omni rom but i don't know much about bugs/boot status etc.
We are still waiting for cyanogenmod to merge sources, however they have stated that they are in no rush to start dishing out 4.4 roms as they have only just sunken their teeth into 4.3 Roms, we will get them eventually, however any builds within the next few days will have little customization or lots of bugs, patience is all we have till then
I hope this answered your question, also, this needs to be in the Q&A section next time bro
Good evening.

Please understand that all the great things you've been hearing about android 4.4 wont apply to us for quite some time, what i mean by this is all the efficiency/ performance improvements will be somewhat mitigated buy bugs and firmware incompatibilities, these things take time for devs to work through, 4.3 still isnt mature enough on this device to call it stable.
I just don't want people to get overly excited by a 4.4 port, its improvements will come gradually.

4.4 sure is on its way for our device, BUT:
Google is removing more and more support for our device, as it already is pretty old. So we need to re-add everything.
Even if it's booting, we still need a lot of work in order to get the most important stuff working (like SurfaceFinger, Audio, and ofc also data/RIL)
So regarding 4.4, all I can say is: Have patience
BTW, Thread moved to Q&A section

Yes they are functionally stable to a user, but to call a rom stable (at least by Cyanogenmods standards) requires more than that.

Doesn't use dirty patch code to fix issues in source, usually done to get a release out quicker, between release candidates to stable this code is refined.

Sometimes it's still necessary to do. This is the case with our EGL libs for example. The best would be getting an update from LG, but this is very unlikely to happen. I got 4.3 BSP partially working, updated all graphics-related libs to 4.3 from grouper, but it broke a few things. Porting the full BSP might not be even possible.
Regarding Omni 4.4, I gradually found probably all needed patches for it, will see when I get to computer.

Stock Android 4.3 for i9305

Does anyone know anything about android 4.3 for our SIII LTE?
i9300 had android 4.2.2 even though it was a leak and now they have 4.3 but there has been no leak at all for i9305 even though it has better hardware and came later than i9300.
I'm also waiting for it in here, the stock customized 4.3 since I don't want to use the custom roms as it contains bugs. Hope it can be shared here soon.
The stock android 4.3 for i9300 rolls out. I hope for i9305 arrives soon...

Let's hope for it i'm sick of 4.1.2 but i like 4.3 and since 4.2 wasn't launched because it had some minor fixes 4.3 would needed to be launched because it has few major updates.

There are just a few changes. I don't know, but i could live with 4.1.2 if I would'nt use CM at the moment. I'll give stock 4.3 a try but if it's not a faster fw than 4.1.2 is won't use it. I don't like the new settings menu and knox

:laugh:Well 4.3 offers approx. 20 changes in compare to 4.1.2 . The one I like best is the ability to move apps to sd card. Amazing function. Also,multiple lock screen pages with widgets on the lock screen,is also amazing feature.
Camera has been improved. Settings menu contains tabs...I truly like the 4.3
But,honestly 4.1.2 has been very very good. :good:
Looking forward to the 4.3 update but even more so Kit Kat
If you want stock android try CyanogenMod 10.1 (4.2.2) is rock solid. As are the nightlies for 10.2 (4.3).
Much better than Samsung's bloated iteration of android imo.
Also they sold way more i9300s compared to i9305??

CM10.X roms are solid, but not as solid as Stock roms. Even if they're stable they still have bugs, lack fearures and some things won't work properly, like Camera quality, which I find much much better on stock roms, specially the video recording quality, and overall sound and battery experience is better on stock roms.
If only AOSP roms could work on our devices the way they do on Nexus devices... blame Samsung for that...
I so much agree with @KillEmAllx as I also prefer a customized stock rom over custom rom as despite of custom roms having plenty of features and improvements still the countable bugs are those more usable one like camera. Hoping for i9305 in the near soon.
in my opinion,Android is born for rooting,for flashing and for customize roms,especially here with so many geeks.compared with all the new features in customize roms,little bugs are totally receptable.

I´ve installed Liquid Smooth 2.37 ( Android 4.3 )
and 4.3 it´s working fine ( almost no bugs and no crashes )
you can give it a try
LiquidSmooth is an aftermarket firmware based on the Android Open Source Project!!!
No based on stock ROM!
Does anyone know if either EE (Everything Everywhere) UK or Samsung publish an Android update schedule or roadmap for the i9305 ? If so could you please post a link?
I don't want to root if 4.3 is in the pipeline.

[Q] Do I need to update Android 4.3 before going to KitKat?

I've an HTC One (Unlocked version) and currently it's running on Android 4.2.2 (preloaded). Today I checked for software update and there's an update available; Jelly Bean 4.3 with Sense 5.5 but I'm curious why doesn't it shows up the latest KitKat update as HTC releases KitKat for HTC One globally recently. The question is do I need to update Android 4.3 before going to KitKat for my HTC One? Secondly, what are the major changes in 4.3 and latest KitKat update (incl. Sense 5.5), RAM Management, Battery life and other changes/effects on phone?

4.4 had huge battery improvements, 4.3 was more about bug fixes (if I recall correctly). But you should update to 4.3 to get the included firmware updates. After you do that, you can root and install a KitKat ROM if you want.

this depends on your CID to get 4.4 KitKat update
you can update to 4.3, after that maybe you'll receive 4.4 update
or you can manually get yourself KitKat ROM & you can enter the world of custom ROMs

Right now I'm in Russia (Moscow). Pakistan is my home town.
If you are willing to update via the "Official way", you should update to 4.3 and then maybe you will receive also 4.4 notification.
As OTA means Over The Air UPDATE, it relies up, that there is something, that it will update (same as with windows updates. you need windows installed prior to installing updates).
Ota doesn't contain complete system image, just instructions which file to replace / delete afaik

I've updated my HTC One to Android 4.3 Jelly Bean with sense 5.5 but its not showing any further update (KitKat) for my device.
P.S. I'm in Russia (Moscow).
Then it's probably either not released for your CID & model combination or your phone is loaded with "custom" version from phone operator.
Try getting application CID GETTER from play store and post your results - top row.
Then your phone model number (written on back side).
Eventually you can discuss the issue in this topic
