Just got 4.4.3 update notification

[amroa]

Mine is DE which I converted to a GPe. Installation was pretty darn quick.

Lost SU, but that was expected. Dialer is updated. I already had great battery life, so I'm not sure I'll even notice.

i am thinking of converting too. does the GPE M8 still has the sense camera app or just the stock andriod camera app.?
What guide did you use to concert ?

Not for me.

Was going to start a thread to ask if anyone has received it. My GPE device bought directly from the Play Store has not received the update yet.

I think it does because I can change the focus within a picture which I think is what you're looking for. It also has the motion based controls, so I can pick it up and double tap to wake it up instead of pushing the power button. I really never even tried the Sense version. I ordered the DE because it was available and the GPe was on back order for such a long time.

Look for sakitechonline. He's got a great webpage to teach you how to do everything and then he also includes links to youtube where he basically spells it out step by step.

One day in with 4.4.3 and my battery is still great. I know I could get two days out of this easily. With the previous One (M7), I had to top it off to get a full day.

Stock android which is actually pretty good and supports the sense features. You do lose the htc gallery so you have to do everything from within google camera tho. Basically you lose all sense apps except for the tv remote and the dot case support and other than losing the simply awesome blinkfeed, the conversion is most worth it

I posted some extremely easy videos i found on how to convert in this thread

Yeah I got 4.4.3 a few days ago however, it killed wifi, cam and my sd card. so, I put 4.4.2 back on it a day later now, no more OTA. I plan on flashing it sometime today with 4.4.3. I'll let you know what happens.

Just did the 4.4.3 update via OTA and lost wifi again. Had to roll back to 4.4.2 any ideas guys?

Were you rooted with any xposed mods? If so I think that is your problem, if not no idea I got my OTA last week and have had no problems.
