Have been running 4.0.4 for a few days and all is good except all of my widgets quit updating on several occasions. They work fine for awhile and then nothing. Have seen this with Minimalistic Text and Android Pro Widgets. Sometimes they begin working again on their own, and sometimes I reboot to fix the issue, but within a few hours they freeze up again.
Anyone else with this issue? Not currently running a launcher and its stock 4.0.4.
I noticed the other day my gmail widget wasn't updating. I removed but never did add it back. I'll add it to my screen and see what it does. I'm running stock 4.0.4 too.
I think the problem was the Android Pro Widgets. I had an older version and when I removed it MT began working again. Added the newest version and all has been good since.
I recently finally accepted the 4.3 ota update on my rooted Nexus 7 2013. It made me lose root, so I used the latest wugfresh nexus toolkit and the Samsung drivers to root again and had to reinstall TWRP again.
Since then I've noticed a new weird problem.
I've used SwiftKey pro for a long time and have it set as the default keyboard in the tablet settings. Since the 4.3 update the default keyboard setting resets itself to the Google English keyboard every time the nexus goes to sleep. I reset it in Settings /Language & Input and it stays that way until the tablet goes to sleep. When repowered up, it reset itself to the Google keyboard again. Really weird and annoying. I tried rebooting and that doesn't help.
Anyone else has seen this or knows how to fix it?
Thanks.
Even when I toggle the screen rotate button in quick settings or the display settings, the phone seems to be stuck in portrait view. Can't get landscape view to after ever since I update from 4.3 to 4.4.2. I've tried rebooting multiple times.
I have the official TW ROM (albeit rooted with CF).
Anyone experiencing this same issue?
Solved
FYI, After some research I found a solution.
The issue has to do with deleting Samsung Hub app (instead of just freezing), which seems to break screen rotation. I copied the steps in the link below to copy libgnustl_shared.so into system/lib, set permissions, and reboot.
BAM! Screen rotation now works.

Share your experience with Android 5.0.2 Lollipop on Samsung Galaxy Tab S 10.5 LTE. Am I the only one who experiences annoying lags when switching between tabs in settings, closing browser and pulling down notification bar?

I was getting some lag,very slight, after Lollipop update OTA. So I did a factory reset and it's very smooth now. Very happy with this update overall. But some slight problems still show up. Like snow on screen after waking up and some apps that have problems (might need updates).
Very laggy

I get no lag on my SM T800 and it is much smoother than with KitKat. Again, that is after doing a factory reset (and flashing the firmware through Odin rather than OTA), but I always factory reset after a major update. If it matters, I'm also rooted. Very happy with this upgrade and looking forward to my favorite ROM upgrading.
I have maybe two hours of real usage time with the Lollipop on the Tab S, so I have only superficial observations..
First of all, the fingerprint scanner works a lot better. This alone makes installing the Lollipop update worth it. Next, I am not a big fan of the all white theme in the settings, keyboard, etc. The old one worked fine IMO. Finally, yesterday I did quite a bit of switching between applications, from my web browser to download manager, and a wifi analyzer (did it like 10 times), and I didn't feel much lag. However, I am disappointed with the new view of the apps/tasks where they are now stacked behind each other instead of side by side. Overall, it's gone pretty smooth. I'll see how it goes. I can't imagine going back to KitKat. If there are major issues, I could upgrade to CM12 by then.
This may help.
Had a similar problem with lags even after hard reset, so did a clear cache and factory data erase in recovery mode (volume up+home+power button) and it flies now..
I backed up the demo video first as it wipes all internal content.
