Can you share more details? I tried that and it did not work. I went to App and found Google Framework. I force stopped the service and then cleared the cache. I went back to the Update option and nothing happened.

Edit: Got it to work. Needed to clear data and not cache.

Sorry if I confused things. I knew it was clear one or the other. Either way, I'm on the
latest version. Hope you are too.

Ugh. I always hold my breath during updates. Now at least I can breathe. Going to be out all day at a yard sale tomorrow and was planning to use it to read. Happy to be able to do that...

I didn't have the phantom multitouch issue prior to the update, but did have the grounding touch issue where if the tablet was on a table and not in my hands, it would not always recognize my touch input. If I held the tablet on my hands, there would be no problems. Unfortunately the new update does not fix this grounding issue.

Okay, back in business. Factory Restore did it. Luckily I had a Titanium Backup. Rooted and with Custom Recovery.

I just got it OTA in Austin @ 2:35pm cdt. Testing out gps now, so can't provide feedback on that yet, since it takes quite a bit of playing around with the gps to make it "break". Also, I couldn't ever make the multi touch issue happen, so all I can test is if I now have a multi touch issue.

Will update the thread as I learn more.




UPDATE: 3:55pm cdt: Been over an hour and I haven't been able to break GPS, yet. Have been bouncing back and forth between Maps, Navigator and GPS Test, which used to break it. So far so good, but I'll keep at it. Sometimes being slightly OCD is handy.

Are all these TPU cases with the 'S' pattern on the back from the same OEM manufacturer? I see 4 "different" ones on Amazon.

Edit: Oops, wrong topic lol.

Totally new to android.
1. How are you informed you got the update (presumably a message on the notification shade)?
2. How do you install (I am guessing a power down, then it is installed upon next startup)?

Yes, and I have one. Not impressed. The case is loose, and the power and volume buttons are lousy. Also have the "X" tpu and it is much better. Really nice, actually.

I had the grounding issue and the touch screen issue. The update fixed my multi touch issues but not the grounding issue. It sucks that I have to put a finger on the bezzel to make it work. Trying to use it in a car dock is the worst.

You need to get your device exchanged. Why go through trouble when you have a on year warranty?

Fixed my rare, but easily duplicated multi-touch issue. Thanks, Google. Mine only happened when I'd pinch zoom in a non-linear line. As long as I went straight, it didn't happen.
