[android] Android 4.4.3 has arrived

[Dos_Box]

Just seen the update announce itself on my Nexus 4.

Apparently it's a bunch of Nexus handset bug fixes and some fixes for other manufacturers devices.

Got it the other night on my nexus 4, working fine

Unfortunately, since the weekend my Nexus 4 has been sat on my bedside table with a cracked screen - Only the top half of the screen responds to touch so I am unable to unlock it. I feel naked every time I leave the house without it

Mine updated Monday, The phone dialer looks a lot different!

 

Not seen much else different

 

EDIT: Ive got a Nexus 4

Please tell me you haven't been leaving the house previously with a Nexus 4 strapped over the front of your waist and nothing else

Stupid samsung and their waiting period

Maybe that why they call it a Nexus 4inch?

Unfortunately, as my phone is broken I can't upload the photos - so it didn't happen.

Mine updated the other night as well. Not noticed any drawbacks yet. If anything the apparent connection issue fix has worked, as my phone does not seem to be buffering for as long while streaming music in the car.

@Dos_Box might be worth reading this before you update...

 

Android 4.4.3 KitKat Problems Plague Nexus Users

[Arthur]

4.4.4 is now available. Unfortunately, it contains mostly security fixes.

4.4.3 seems to have finally fixed the 4.2 buffer overflow bug in mobile signal, wherein everytime I lost reception, it would stay lost until I toggled airplane mode. The only fix was to force it to GSRM only (not WCDMA preferred) in the developer menu, which meant I never had 3G... only been a thorn in my side for the last year.

Been on 4.4.3 since released (N4) I like the new dialer but my battery life is miserable compared to 4.4.2.

 

Was going to try a factory reset but will try 4.4.4. first.
