FIX KIT KAT IMMEDIATELY!!!!

Kit Kat just is a horrible update!
I am having the same charging issues that MANY others are having! I've been using the same chargers for 1 1/2 years and have never had a problem until this past weekend when I did the update to Kit Kat.
This is a MAJOR issue that affects ALL of your customers who have done the switch to Kit Kat. When will this issue be resolved?? I certainly hope it will be IMMEDIATE as I, and others, cannot charge our phones!! If we can't charge, we can't use. If we can't use there should be credits to accounts due to non usage!!

CALL SAMSUNG IMMEDIATELY!
it is their issue to fix, not Verizon!
Good Luck

  • Forced us to use Kit Kat.  Are we getting a fix?

    I have a RAZR MAXX HD (now with Kit Kat).  I am a long time VZW customer and feel that this should have never been imposed.  I was literally FORCED to update to Kit Kat.  I did not want to.  I read about the many issues with this roll out and so I decided to wait a while, if not forever, on installing Kit Kat.  The notification kept popping up and I kept hitting ignore.  I knew sooner or later that I would accidentally hit the wrong button.  Sure enough, 2 weeks later I was sending a text and it popped up.  I hit the wrong button while trying to type.  Installed Kit Kat because I was FORCED to do so!  Now there are many many issues reported all over the place about this update not working properly.  Mine in particular involves a few different things.  Most notably, I no longer get good service.  I NEVER lost service in my own house prior to this update.  Now, I lose service every time I try to make a call.  Additionally, my phone likes to open things (apps) randomly now.  Every single time I try to exit an app (even by hitting home key) my phone opens one or more apps that I hadn't been using nor even planned on using.  Sometimes it takes me minutes to get to the place I want to go on my phone because it just keeps opening things on its own.  So frustrating.  This never happened with Jelly Bean.
    So with my situation briefly explained, plus the many others .... ARE WE GETTING A FIX?  Or are we just left to figure it out on our own?  I have waited for quite some time now and have seen no updates.  Before I delve into the world of rooting and using an alternative OS that can brick my device, I will move on entirely to a different company.  This is NOT what I paid for and NOT how I expect to be treated as a loyal customer. 

    See these screen shots Below.. what you see below is the Update or my phone's update to  Kit Kat  &  what follows is the option to defer it you should of had that same option on your phone since it's a Motorola device)  it can get Quite annoying seeing this I have deferred updating since I got my Droid Maxx and that has been since Feb of this year!
    But with this option it does not force you into taking the update..  On another Motorola device I owned I waited over a year to update it and with the same option below I just kept deferring the update. b33

  • Kit Kat data connection problems

    Since updating to kitkat (among other problems) my data connection drops to 3G almost everywhere, and sometimes unexpectedly disappears completely. I used to have 4G everywhere most places and always in the two zip codes I primarily use the phone from. 02113 and 01970. Anyone know how to fix? Is this just one of the things they need to correct in the next kit kat update? Thanks.

    I've had this issue for months.  I've done everything Verizon suggested, including new sims, factory reset, toggling Airplane mode, LTE on/off, radio on/off, reboots, *#*#4636etc., and more.  Nothing helps.  My phone still intermittently loses the 4g connection.  They haven't suggested trying a new (not new; reconditioned), but I don't want to go that route; I know others who have gotten a replacement, and it hasn't helped.  
    It isn't fixed in the upcoming update according to developers forums.
    Some think it's due to Verizon's network; others believe it's an inherent problem in the 4g chipsets in these first generation LTE phones.  I don't believe Verizon knows what's going on; they're just hoping the issue's fixed in the next gen phones, and the problem will go away.  Of course the problem with that is that some of their customers who are stuck with these phones will also go away at the end of our contracts, especially if another wireless company manages to come out with a RELIABLE high-speed 4g network.

  • How can I get rid of kit kat?

    It seems that the answere for the disaster called kit kat is that they will send you a new phone? Why should I need to do that when you ruined and "fixed" something that was not broken. Is there a plan to fix the issues that it seems the all Droid owners are experiencing? I can garantee tha I will never buy another Motorola product again.

        @retromamba,
    Thanks for the additional info!
    Are you using a a BlueTooth Low Energy (BLE) device, like a FitBit? If so it may lose the Wi-Fi connectivity if the device is connected to a Wi-Fi network, or device may not be able to connect to a Wi-Fi network. When the device loses the Wi-Fi connection, the device automatically connects to the cellular network.
    You can re-connect to the wifi and then make sure to disable automatic background syncing on your Bluetooth low energy device application/web settings so it auto connects to the wifi when you return.

  • The Kit Kat Impressions

    So after updating my WiFi model in the kit kat version i'd like to express my first impressions (After 2 weeks of heavy usage of the newest version of android)
    -Super fast menus (only the settings menu seems to be a bit laggy)
    -almost 30% faster I believe in Chrome and most of the apks I had already installed 
    -Unfortunately the flickering screen problem (mainly in apps such as chrome, or Google Tranlate) is still here.
    -the landscape button finaly works!
    There was indeed a drain problem which I totally fixed by turning off the Google locations.
    -Another problem I also noticed was the fact that almost all the videos I tested in Hardware mode with the default video player or by using the Mx player seem to "stop" momentarily every two minutes making the playback a bit painful... The only solution is to enable the S/W mode in the Mx Player 
    That's my first thoughts. 

    So you buy a very expensive  tablet with extra hardware like a sd-card,  and don't mention anything about that in the review of this  crippling update? 
    What if Google decided that WIFI will be redundant? 
    Do you not care about that either? 
    If someone is so positive about this upgrade you have to be very lucky,  or work for Google. 
    And Sony is to blame too. 
    They did nothing to prevent this all,  but still selling tablets with a sd-reader. 
    If we want this kind of security solutions we had bought an iPad.! 
    Just as expensive,  but with better hardware! 
    So,  Sony do something about it,  or stop selling this kind of expensive tablets! 
    Google is not God! Their just a bunch of creedy........... 
    But hardly anybody seems to protest here! 

  • UK Sony Xperia Z1 Kit Kat updates for unbranded phones?

    I have a UK generic unbranded Sony Xperia Z1 (i.e. I purchased my phone outright, not through a carrier) and am experiencing distorted audio and dropouts with Bluetooth when connected and playing music to some devices.  My phone is running Android 4.3 Sony update 14.2.A.0.290. 
    I read Sony have fixed the Bluetooth dropout and distortion issue with a later firmware 14.2.A.1.136 but Sony PC Companion and Sony Update Service will not upgrade my device beyond firmware release .290 (I've completed a 'repair' using both PC Companion and Sony Update Service and the phone is still on 14.2.A.0.290).
    Has Sony not produced a later firmware update for the non branded UK phones since 14.2.A.0.290?  I see the branded phones have got Android 4.4.2 Kit Kat in the form of update14.3.A.0.681, how long will it be before this version is available to UK users who bought their phones outright?

    Hi
    I'm currently having a conversation with Sony Xperia Contact Center (!) in regards to the Bluetooth issue with the .290 update, and why Bluetooth worked fine with the previous Android 4.2 update.  I've pointed out to them that techincally the phone is not fit for purpose (legal term) in its current state.  Awaiting their response

  • So many problems and Kit Kat 4.4.2 is to blame!

    Since the update to Kit Kat 4.4.2 my LG G2, along with so many other Android users, has been having problems. My biggest complaint is "Unfortunately, Messaging has stopped". The stock app won't even open unless I make Hangouts my default. I've deleted all threads, cleared cache, disabled/ tried Hangouts, and still no luck. I hate Hangouts and really want my stock app working again!
    Also my battery over heats often (charging or while using) plus it drains fast, alarm randomly will not go off, screen freezes from time to time, keyboard will hang up or double my text, and I will lose 4G LTE without even moving the phone.
    As for troubleshooting I have a background in tech support for phones. Here's what I have done and still no luck:
    1. Restarted phone.
    2. Disabled all stock apps I am not using plus cleared data/cache.
    3. Uninstalled all downloaded apps from Play Store.
    4. Restarted phone again.
    5. Made Hangouts default SMS.
    6. Data stays off unless I need it.
    7. Closed all running apps from Task Manager.
    8. Still no luck!
    9. Dimmed brightness to 40%.
    10. Turned off Location.
    11. Activated Battery Saver.
    14. Backed up everything.
    15. Factory Restore with out using Google.
    12. Restarted phone.
    13. Still no luck!
    16. Checked for System Updates on Verizon and LG websites.
    Still no luck!
    No one wants to take the blame for this HUGE problem that is reaping havoc on ALL Android users. I didn't buy a $600 phone less than a year ago just to use it as a paper weight! WE need a fix or an update ASAP!!!!!!

    The place to call is LG who updated your device with the Google Inc. Operating System.
    Verizon is not the blame.
    Good Luck

  • DROID RAZR MAXX HD - Battery Life Halved following Kit-Kat Update

    While I like many aspects of the Kit Kat Update, the battery life on my RAZR MAXX HD is half of what it once was under Jelly Bean.
    I have tried the same Smart Action settings used previously, when I was getting up to 3 days per charge...and I have turned off all the Smart Actions, but the result is still the same. I am now lucky to get 24 hours out of a charge...under very light usage.
    I was also sometimes unable to toggle wifi with the Smart Actions turned on. No such issues as long as the Smart Actions are turned off.
    I am hesitant to perform a Factory Reset, but is that my only option?
    It does seem as if there should be a 4.4.2 update forthcoming, but I have seen nothing to indicate that it is.

        I'm sorry you're having issues with the battery on your device bljusn. I know its frustrating and thanks for trying all those steps to correct the issue. The hard reset would be the last step towards fixing some of the issues with your phone. When you perform the hard reset, make sure you don't restore your apps because they could be causing some of the issues with your phone if their not compatible with the new software. We recommend adding them on one by one to check for issues. Keep us posted.

  • Xperia Z, Out of Warranty holding charge for only a few hours since Kit Kat Update

    Hi,
    I am a hapless owner of Xperia Z. I purchased my phone in March 2013 in India during the month of its launch.
    A day after I purchased I noticed that the phone was over heating like ****** and sent it to service center. After I received it back, it was working fine . I managed a workaround for heating by using a think case.
    I moved to USA and here again I had to send my phone to service center for USB Connectivity Issues. 
    Now, since the Kit Kat update, my phone doesn't lasts for more than 4 hours and there's simply no communication from SONY on when will it be fixed. Now because my phone is out of warranty and I don't have a copy of my bill, the customer care refuse to entertain it or redirect to thier service centre.
    I feel cheated as I invested my hard earned money on an expensive paper weight and with Customer care showing total apathy. All I want is a working phone.
    I strongly urge SONY to advertise its short comings as well, like heating, no battery backup, finger prints on touch screen and sluggish performance.

  • I have an older s3 that is off-network, How can I get the kit kat update on my s3?

    I have a "retired" Galaxy S3 that I am keeping as a spare-  The Kit Kat update supposedly has been available since 6/20, but I cannot get the software on my off-network phone to update-  even though is is connected by wi-fi.  I spent about a half hour chatting on-line with tech support Monday, 6/23, who assured me that is would update over wi-fe-  although I have NOT been able to do so yet.   I went into the Verizon store yesterday, and the woman I spoke to there told me all I had to do was swap SIM cards with my active phone, then casually mentioned that if I did that, it would void the warranty on my new phone by taking it off-network.  Great, just what I would want to do...
    I am seriously considering re-activating it for a couple hours, just to get it updated, then deactivating it again.  It would seem there should be an easier way.

    Thank you for the prompt reply, but still unsatisfying.  I spent a couple hundred dollars for this phone less than 2 years ago (not to mention the $600 for the S5 off-contract a couple months ago) and you are telling me that I have to void the warranty or open a new data-service line to get the proper support for my Verizon-branded device?  At this point the S3 is off warranty and primarily used on wi-fi-  I could just as well root it and run custom ROMs I suppose-  nothing to lose at this point, since the company that sold it to me won't even help to keep it up-to-date.  I don't mean to sound like a whiner, but this is not what most would consider good customer support.

  • Is There Any Way Under Heaven to Prevent Kit-Kat from Installing?

    I've already had my phone screwed up enough.  Tonight the stupid Kit-Kat downloaded to my Galaxy S3, and I'm getting those annoying pop-up dialogues asking me when I want to start the install.
    I don't WANT to start the install.  After reading so many problems here, especially the battery charging issues, I don't understand why this update continues to be pushed on those that have not already been stuck with it.
    Please!  ANYONE!  Tell me how to get this out of my phone.  I am looking for new phone, though I shouldn't have to, but it's going to be a couple of months before I can do it.  I'm only one year into a 2-year contract so I'm having to pay out of pocket for the new one.  I've already spent a ton of money on portable power packs, extra batteries, extra chargers.
    These things are money-pits, plain and simple.  And making people tear their hair out.  For Pete's sake, leave us alone!

    bubblemaker  Elector
    Try this...
    Application Manager-All-Google Services Framework-Uncheck Show Notifications
    That at least stopped the annoying popups that just WAIT for you to get through your lock-screen, then jump in before you can hit another app, forcing the install.
    I don't know if this will hold it off forever, but my daughter has been able to avoid the 4.3 update since last December.
    The Android icon will appear in your notification bar, but it will remain quiet.
    EDITED TO UPDATE:  Well, no, it isn't working after all.  All is lost and our phones are doomed.

  • Is there a way to revert back to Kit Kat on the G3?

    The Android L (5.0) update has made my phone fairly unreliable.  Is there anyway to roll the phone back to Kit Kat until some of these issues are worked out with lollipop on this device?

    You cannot revert back to KitKat without flashing your phone [read: Void Your Warranty!].  The latest scuttlebutt is that LG is aware and working on a 5.1 update.  So until then we are stuck.  I phones have had their issues as well, i.e. Apple finally acknowledging WiDie (phone loses WiFi connection for no reason).  We just take the good with the bad at this point.  You'd think in the 21st century this sh*t would be a thing of the past, but you'd be wrong....

Maybe you are looking for
