List your problems faced after kitkat update

Since my stock Galaxy S3 updated to 4.4.2, I have found three annoying issues.
1. Can no longer toggle Mobile Hotspot via widget. I was using Settings Extended, have tried Power Toggles and several others. It briefly starts to turn on, then turns back off. I have to open the App to turn it on.

2. GPS & Locations combined. Before, I could leave non-GPS locations on, so my Weather apps, Google searches, etc. would know where I am. Then I could easily toggle GPS on/off. Now, it's all or nothing, so I have to leave Locations on, then open up the settings and change to High Accuracy if I want to use GPS. Again, what used to be toggled now requires extra steps.

3. Messenger box in lock screen. This used to be optional, now you get a box no matter what. You can turn off "preview" but this also turns it off in your Notifications bar. I ended up downloading a different messenging app and changing the default to that one instead.

If anyone knows a way around these issues, any apps that will toggle directly in 4.4.2, please let me know!!!

This is an annoyance for me too. I also find that my battery drain is most severe when I'm not at home or work when I'm in high accuracy location mode. But that's the only way to have GPS on.

What exactly is "wugfresh" and where can I get it? Also, I have a LG G FLEX (curved) phone and would like to revert back to old OS because KitKat has messed up my phone in too many ways to mention. By the way, is it safe to revert to older OS? Thanks!

Since updating my n7 2013 to 4.4.3 the wifi and bluetooth connections are less stable.

The three down keys of my note are not working with hand touch except with the use of the stylus pen, this includes the home key. This has happened after the kit kat 4.4.2 upgrade. This means the three keys are useless in the event loss or damage of the stylus pen. Please what can I do?

I am using Xperia Z1 model C6903.
After kitkat update:

I am unable to hear sound ( for music, video) through normal speakers until I plug in head sets. But if one calls, I can hear the ringtone through those speakers. Weird!!

During call, I can not hear a connecting tone nor the person on the other side of the call. He also can not hear me.

Every time the message "headset connected" keeps popping up on upper left even when they are not connected.

So bad. I wish had not upgraded it.
