Thought this might be useful for anyone considering updating.
So far, I have noticed that Sky Go Tablet doesn't work and from the Sky forums it appears that it doesn't work for any Nexus device that has 4.4.3
MX Player Pro - "Unsupported Android Version".

Oh, what a surprise. That dev has a history of doing idiotic version checks.

There was an update to MX Player that now works with 4.4.3
Did anyone else notice that Google Currents was in the 4.4.3 update? I know that google stopped supporting it a long time ago. It just seems odd that its still there even though it directs you to the play newsstand as it has been for a while.
I just notice battery usage (probably due to cpu usage) is significantly higher in certain games ( specifically from 30-40% to 60-70% on average)
Skype isn't working too well in video calls for me. The aspect ratio of the front facing camera is screwed up and makes my face look fat when the tablet's in portrait mode, and skinny in landscape mode. Also, if I send Skype to the background while in a call (using the back arrow) to do something else then it stops transmitting video from my tablet.
I'm having issues with the email client crashing. It's has crashed a few times on me since loading 4.4.3.

This is now fixed - it was only if you had the system font size set to large.
Since update to 4.4.3 {tried all stock rooted, AOSP), Candy Crush not loading at all.
-It's work fine on all others Android phones I own but this Nexus 7 II.
-Not sure that CC is crash on on Tablet only because I own only Nexus 7 II.

For those who use Skype, they have updated their application to support tablets. Oh and Microsoft ID. iPad mini has nothing on the Nexus 7 now! Mwahaha
In all seriousness, this is pretty big. With the adoption of tablet optimised apps from companies like Skype and Tapatalk things are going to change. We're still waiting for Twitter and Facebook to get their arse in gear but Apples claim to fame will soon be invalid. I honestly thought Microsoft was going to ignore the Android tablet market in hope to push their Surface. Obviously not.

The quality of avatar is gone bad
Look like mosaic image
I do like the update but landscape only annoys me. The camera isn't in an ideal spot for landscape any its awkward to hold for a call in landscape. It needs to function in both views.

Though the point the OP makes is valid, our tablets have a camera mounted for portrait mode video chat. The update to Skype locks the app to landscape. Not cool..

I did find this to be an issue, so I downloaded the ultimate rotation app and what do'ya'know;
It's not ideal, an I'm sure they'll fix it soon considering the bad reception landscape only has got, but this is a good temporary solution.
My main point is people are finally adopting the android tablet and I'm certain there will be more to follow.

Anyone having issues with slow sign on? Mine takes over a minute to sign on?
Can't sing in at all. Noticed it few hours ago..
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
Sign in works fine for me, as does everything else. Hate the only landscape mode, though. Leaves the camera in an awkward position.
I use the modded skype.apk by theo0s*
Using the ultimate rotation app is also a smart way to rotate it, I would love this to be included at paranoid android

Hi Guys, I am new to Galaxy S3,
So far my experience has been so so. When I have been having problems with the music app, for example, once playing a track i cant pause, or if it is paused, i cant resume, app the kind of crashes. Is this normal
Also when i have hardware overlay disabled for play dead trigger, i cant watch hd youtube vidoes in full screen, the picture freezes.
any suggestions. I have tried 3 hard resets now and sprint wont replace it beacuse i cant recreate the music problem in store and they say youtube is app issue not phone

It's this Google Music? This is an issue that started for me with the most recent update to Google Music a couple of weeks ago. I rolled back to an earlier version using titanium backup and the problem is gone. Might have to wait for another update our use a different player.

nah its the stock app.
Both of those are problems with the apps not the phone or jellybean.
Contact app developer (doubt it'll do anything) but it is what it is.

●●● [APP UPDATE] ●●● INSTAGRAM v.4.1 - Now Allows Video IMPORT
Instagram announced this morning that in version 4.1 of their apps on both Android and iOS, users will be able to import previously recorded video from device galleries. In the previous version that introduced video, you were only able to record video through the app, not pick and choose previously recorded clips. This new importing feature also allows you to trim the clip down and choose which section is centered in the Insta-square.
But maybe more importantly, video recording is now available on devices running Ice Cream Sandwich in this new version.

Well the xperia tablet z is mine so are the HTC one (which I only use in the weekends) and Nexus 4 (My daily). The lg 4XHD is my emergency phone (which I will never get rid off). The TF300 I gave to my 2 yr old son since getting the Xperia tablet. My wife uses my old LG Optimus 2X and she refuses to upgrade. She loves that phone too much for some odd reason.
I seem to have a lil spending problem with new gadgets lol.

Hello,
Has anyone tried the Android 4.4 KitKat Launcher released for Nexus 5 on their Note 8.0?
"To install the new launcher (Google Home), you’ll have to install 3 different apps – Google Play Services 4.0, Google Search, and the Google Home .apk. "
If so, is it working ok? how's the performance with the new launcher?
Thanks for your help :good:
I'm currently using the launcher as my daily driver, and aside from a couple bugs (app drawer seems crowded, and the keyboard pops up randomly upon returning to home), it runs rather well. I'm enjoying this psuedo-Kitkat UI!

Could you please post some screenshots? Thanks!
Sorry, I cant. When I try to upload screenshots, it says it has the incorrect JPEG file extension. Can you download the launcher?

Wrong section..sorry..
The launcher runs fine. and looks ok,
I have gotten too used to touchwiz to like anything else,
however, this can also be used as an app i.e hitting back button does not close it.In that way it provides most of its functionality on demand and serves good for hands-free operation when needed, though s-voice did that kinda similar too.
App Drawer does not have any menus or settings so nothing much to write home about there, other than it's obviously different.
I have it set up minimally for reading stuff only (news and books) and here are screen shots.

Hi,
This is my experience with N5X while streaming music through bluetooth to my new Car (Ford Figo 2015 -India).
Play quality - Good so far
Connection Establishment - Good so far
Upload Contacts to Headunit - 100% works
Display song track info - Doesn't work
I have seen devices like LG G2 (5.0 android), Iphones (4,5s,6), Samsung Galaxy Young(cheapest samsung running Jelly bean) connect and stream music info while playing music.
However my older Nexus 4 and my new nexus 5x seems to be hitting roadblock.
Please correct me if i am wrong, but below are my points that could be the root cause of this issue
1. MP3 Players(AVRCP support)
I have tried almost all renowned Music players from Playstore. Tried all bluetooth assistance apps along with them still no luck.
2. Bluetooth Stack
N5x is not listed : https://support.google.com/nexus/answer/6048862?hl=en
AVRCP version is not up to date ?
https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!msg/nexus/_t1ufKwSqU8/76g7UPtwAQAJ
3. Bluedroid(previously BlueZ)
Bluedroid is still in its infancy and bluetooth stack not being upgraded, hence?
Please share your experience with N5X on Song track Info, maybe we could collate all information in this thread.
2016 Volkswagen Jetta with Nexus 5x here, track info displays over bluetooth when playing music files, haven't tested streaming audio or video. No special add-on apps or settings for bluetooth, using Shuttle+ as a music player.
