[Discussion] Android 4.3 Issues

What issues have you experienced on Android 4.3?
In my case the wipe dalvik cache starting apps on boot bug still exists which is just irritating and the developer of Clipper has found a multi-clipboard crash on Android 4.3 which was reported to Google.

Miracast no longer works with play music app. Guess they disabled because of their chromecast dongle. Very naughty google! Taking cues from apple now?

I heard that other people had the same issue, try wiping the Play Store cache and data, if that does not work then do the same to Google Play Services of it is there (icon disappeared and turned to an android on my side in the battery menu).

To clear Play Store download error delete Google account and then recreate, Store will then work correctly.

Most of these "issues" that you're talking about are not 4.3 issues, they're app issues! Apps need to be updated to work properly on 4.3!

Delete it from the store or my phone?

True BUT Android 4.3 is causing this class issue for certain applications and plus this thread is about the issues within the OS, application issues to do with the OS itself and much more.
Basically this is about issues people suddenly get after the update.

No no no, you just try wiping the Play Store or/and Play Store Services and if that does not help and you are using the first email you added to the device then you need to factory reset.

Are the notification light working properly with the 4.3 or we still have to use Light flow to get them?

Since getting the ota update to 4.3 my nexus4 has been having performance issues especially when playing games. Playing a simple game like candy crush is stuttering and having a drop in frame rate, is anyone else experiencing the same problems?

Hi, I have some litle issues too.
Go Launcher Ex's notification icon permanent stayng in my status bar. I install the old version and nothing change.
In Apps>Infor for Go Launcher Ex, I set to not show notifications, but after restart I'm geting icon again.
I read somwere, that in 4.3 the user have rights to denied permitions of the app's, but I do not see this option in settings.
Thank's!

Mx player not working - player issue I know.

I have bad lag in chrome and gangstar 4, as well as a few other apps

NFC / Google wallet (4.3) issues...

Hey everybody ! I'm a regular user of Google wallet and since the android update to 4.3 I'm unable to utilize the apk.
I've tried with stock rooted and with custom rom but to no luck
I'm trying at a McDonald's location that I know works based on the fact that I've used it many times in the past. At least prior to the update.
Had anyone been able to use Google wallet since the 4.3 update?
Edit: I'm using an ota based rom

Interesting. I had no issue setting it up or enabling tap-to-pay, but I haven't actually tested it yet. I'm sure the custom ROM wouldn't work if it was anything besides Sense based, but I'm not 100 on Sense based custom ROMs. I'll test it out this evening when I swing by PetCo.

I haven't had any problems. Tested yesterday

What rom are you using please?

Have the same problem as OP. Tried it Stock rooted and BadBoy which im currently running. Both no go. Setup was fine, but when i try paying with it, nothing happens. And yes, my NFC was on and had a stable LTE connection.

No issues for me. I even got used as a training experience for a new PetCo employee. Apparently they'd been waiting on me coming back in so they could show them how to handle NFC payments. I'm not sure how I feel about being that well known at PetCo for using Google Wallet.

Tried Google Wallet at CVS Pharmacy and Best Buy both times the transaction was declined even though I wasn't close to my max credit line or on my debit card.

I've had issues since the update to the Google Wallet app. Not sure it's 4.3 the problem. But I'm getting a transaction declined when I use it. But I know it has nothing to do with my limit being reached because I always endup paying with the actual card.

@rougegoat & @Deathsnuggle was your use while on the new 4.3 rom or something else?
My experience is nothing happens. No vibration (which normally happens when you place phone on nfc placard to pay)
no denied (because it doesn't connect or communicate)
and after trying to communicate with my wife's phone (HTC evo 4g lte) which normally at least vibrates to acknowledge something's attempting to communicate, nothing happens there either (which used to before the update)
And just to clarify I did the radio update, firmware update, recovery update, then rom (android 4.3 w/sense 5)

I wiped everything. Coming from 4.1 I wanted a fresh slate. Haven't even transferred my music and pictures back yet. I haven't tried badboyz rom yet though.

Stock 4.3, root, s-off. I had a few issues the first day, but have had no issues since. But I really don't like that they set the password requirement to once a day as the default.

Ok I wanted to post that I found out what was causing MY problem... I was using exposed framework. I'm NOT SAYING that it breaks nfc but some combination I had going was causing my issue.
I installed my rom again without exposed and it works again.

I had a feeling it was related to this, but I love toolbox too much. What module were you using?

Well interestingly enough, the nfc function works with the android beam but my Google wallet apk isn't functioning.
Looks like back to the drawing board.

Yea I full wiped the other day and didn't install anything EXCEPT Google Wallet and couldn't get it to work. Wallet says tap and pay is setup correctly, but can never authorize a transaction even though my phone beeps and vibrates when it makes a connection with our vending machine. I'm on Badboyz, which is pretty close to stock.

Not going to happen unless you can figure out what parts of touchwiz are required, and then port it
(Or maybe sdk if it is ever released)

To be honest I can live without the voice and weather my calls and notifications work and a load of other stuff very happy that it's even working and that samsung deprived us of being able to use other devices with their gear watch.

Can't help, I'm using Notifications Center. But mine is not failing. I went from b11 to official through Google Playstore.

Yeah Idk. Uninstall and reinstall. That's the only suggestion I have.

How are people finding it?
I went from Beta 10 (bought my watch the day it came out)
-it was crap, buggy, slow, the app store made my phone hot and chewed the battery.
to Beta 7 (the release prior to "app store")
-no app store. instant responses. worked pretty well
to Beta 11
-still a bit slow, but the Pebble app behaved and battery use was okay. App store worked better (could scroll back and forth between watch faces)
to Official
-barely tested before an update came out
to Official.. (update 1?)
-is okay.. not as fast as Beta 7 still.
-Phone has started crashing.
-Powered off at 3am the other day (GSAM graph and Sleep as Android had data until then)
-Froze on the app store this morning. Then crashed.
..not sure whether I'll try uninstalling everything or perhaps flashing a new ROM.
Incidentally, I have a mate who won't move off of Beta 7

Official got an update today. Working very well so far

I changed my rom and it seemed to have fixed the problem I was having earlier.

After I received my Pebble, the firmware was updated to the latest version 2. I had been using with my Note 3 on stock KitKat and found that almost half the time, it will lose the bluetooth connection. Has anyone using Note 3 encounter this issue?
Today I got very frustrated with it and tried factory reset of the Pebble but still has same issue. I even tried Pebblebits but the issue remains.
I tried to flash the beta 9, 10, and 11 but didn't manage to flash. Is there anyway to go back to the last most updated version 1 firmware? The only reason I want to do that is to find out if my issue is Pebble or rom very issue.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk

V2.0.2 firmware updated on my Pebble. Hopefully the bluetooth issue I had will be resolved.
Edit:
Did factory reset on my Pebble a few times but still cannot solve the problem.
Next, suspected that Notification Center seems to cause the BT disconnection, so I removed it. Tried other free notification apps but still had problem with BT disconnection.
Decided to purchase YaNC PRO and unfortunately still had BT disconnection.
The last straw was to reboot my Note 3.
Looks like the BT disconnection is gone. Notifications are also coming in now. Hopefully this situation continues.
Edit:
It's slightly improved but at times, I still face BT disconnections, ie notifications not sending to my Pebble even when the notification bar shows the Pebble is connected.
Of anyone has any suggestions, please share with me. Thank you.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk

I have a disconnection too. But this is a data type connection. If I have weather on the watch it wont update, when I do a manual update on the watch it says disconnected. The way to get it back is to reboot the phone, or go to the support tab, have it check for a update, and let it force close, then its OK for a while. I'm currently use Kitkat (Custom ROM),unfortunately I had to remove weather from my watch.

Thanks dude!
I was worried because I just bought this Pebble and I thought mine was a faulty unit.

I"m using Pebble with my Galaxy S3 (rooted stock ROM) and I had several times problem with random disconnection and reconnection of BT connection with Pebbles.
Always solved by default reset of Pebble + removing / installation of Pebble application.
Hope that it will help sb who have same problem...

Always on, Google now turns itself off often

Hey guys, in the screenshot that setting to have Google always on, keeps turning off but for the love of me I don't know why, any advice?
When I switch from enhanced to basic and back to enhanced again, it does allow me to flip the switch for always on again, but as you can imagine if k have to do that, the whole thing becomes pretty useless, used to work just fine btw :banghead:
