Re: Just got kit kat on Sprint in so cal

Seem to not get any notifications sounds for text messages,, through phone or through watch or even blutetooh stereo headphones since updating. EDIT : blocking mode was set to "always" and not to the times I set it to for some reason.

THE BEAST,,NOTE 3. SIZE IS EVERYTHING!!!

Oh ok, I have the Note 3 for TMo and waiting for them to annouce the release for the update. I'll probably use Google Hangout rather than the stock sms messager app anyways. I just thought it was always annoying when you would get a text message and you would have that ugly sms widget on the lockscreen. I switched to widget locker but with the update allowing full screen music art I want to take atvantage.

Tap and pay now works on Google wallet

If Google Wallet does work again, that's reason enough for me. That's another thing I lost when I upgraded from the Note 2.

The only difference is the battery is white and not green, nothing major

Google wallet is working,, transition animation bug fixed,, much faster,,, that's just 5 mins of looking around. Pretty sure more than just battery icon color. Why do people expect their phone to do back flips after a update? Most of the time it's the things you can't see with the most improvement.

Bingo!

Also, I downloaded via wifi and it took 35 minutes to DL. Over all, I'm happy with it.

NOW bring on Android version 5!!

Re: Just got kit kat on Sprint in so cal

Question. i started the download earlier today on wifi and had to cancel it and now when I go to try to update it, it says everything is up to date. How can I force the update or get it back?

This happened to me too. I can't even download via Kies because it tells me I'm up to date. And Kies shows MJ4 as up to date. Any ideas?

503.29mb , cleared Google services framework and got the update!

Be careful clearing Google services framework, do a search on the forums, it is not recommended and can cause a multitude of problems, some of which may not show up right away.

Huh? Never heard of this before, so my phone isn't supposed to be barking like a dog? Damnit! I knew them Google boys were up to no good! Lol, I wish you would have just stated the problems you know about rather than having me work for it!

Sorry Greg, I don't have any first hand knowledge of the problems, I read an article written by, I believe, one of Googles software engineers explaining exactly what the framework service is, and why it's a bad idea, this was confirmed over on XDA and other sources, it affects an apps ability to recieve push notifications without the app running in the background, which would kill your battery, once the framework data has been cleared, some apps will not reset, as the "keys" it needs to receive the push are assigned when the app is downloaded, and these "keys" become invalid. Some of this can be rectified by clearing that apps cache and data, but you may not know which apps are affected.

Re: Just got kit kat on Sprint in so cal

I cleared the framework and immediately received my update yesterday but I'm not to concerned about that issue because I don't allow any push notifications on any app to begin with.

So you have the Tap to Pay settings and can select Google Wallet there?

I speculate it was a server load issue, I think they scaled back areas after release to prevent problems.
