My issue:
Some, not all, of my widgets will not refresh/update. Specifically I am having this issue with weather/clock widgets (I have tried several different ones, none work), Samsung music, Twitter, reddit, ect. The calendar and e-mail appear to refreshing regularly though.

What I've tried:
-updated apps/widgets
-cycled phone
-reset phone
-updated phone

What I use:
Samsung Galaxy Note 3, Sprint
Android Version: 4.4.4

*I recently updated to KitKat 4.4 and the problem worsened after that. Before I was able to temporarily fix the issue by removing the widget and replacing it but now just nothing works.

**I should note that the applications work fine and I can still tap on the widget to open the app, but the content in the widget does not refresh. :'(

I haven't restricted background data. As far as task killers, I just use the pre-installed "Active Applications" widget to close apps and I haven't seemed to have any issues using that before.
