I imagine everyone has the same update on KitKat. But I just want to share what I've noticed as different and would like to hear others' experience with this (another thread might exist of this, but I can't find it...)

1. The Wifi/mobile data color changed from blue (which I prefer) to white
2. The dial pad changed from black to white (I prefer black)
3. The speaker sound became lower/more tin-ny in sound
4. Same as above on phone calls
5. Signal improved a bit
6. Camera is no bueno (but it was pretty shameful to start)
7. Ok Google Now had to be retrained; same with active notification (had to go through tutorial again - it insisted)
8. A lot of built-in apps had to be updated via the Playstore

And that's all I've noticed so far.

What else have I missed noticing? What are your experiences with KitKat?

My update keeps failing. I tried going back to stock, original ROM, reflashed my original recovery, still nothing.

So you'd rooted it before the update? If you're back on stock ROM (I didn't know you could do that after rooting), then you might want to call Sprint and see if they can find another way to resolve this. But, as I'm sure you're aware, don't let on that you've rooted the phone (if you have).

Been thinking of getting a Nexus anyway. This is my reason to. Lol...

Anyone else getting very small fonts on their email?

(Regarding point 2, my dialer pad is still black, but at least its smaller so it doesnt look so bad (i disliked it). Posted via Android Central App
