    Sprint Galaxy S4: Kitkat Update Screen Problem

    Same experience here, tried hard reset, removed most apps, turned off gps, tried watchon disable/enable.... this is brutal, wish I never updated to kitkat.... I noticed problem only occurs when memory used hits above 1.1gb... which usually happens about 4h after a restart Posted via Android...
