I upgraded my WiFi N7 using the zip version posted on these forums and didn't get a map update. Running 6.14.4 both before and after the 4.3 update.

I'd previously reverted to the 6.14.4 version after seeing the new version deleted the distance measuring tool and removed the ability to slew quickly in Street View (using the little man icon). Someone was kind enough to post 6.14.4 after I asked if anyone had it.

6.14.4 was in this post

4.3 seems to be running well in general although every 3rd party video player I've tested seems broken for now (Dice Player, MX Player, MOBO Player, BS Player). I only tested playing some compressed BluRay rips (m2ts files) piped through ES File Explorer from a SAMBA share but they all worked fine on 4.2.2.

[Nexus 7 General] Raikku:
When they start to OTA this 4.3 for older Nexus 7 in Europe's area? And those who already installed 4.3, is there notable differences?
[Nexus 7 General] khaytsus:
I'm seeing a lot of IO lag since moving to 4.3, especially obvious in the Engadget app. It's always taken a few seconds to load the stories, but now it seems like it takes several seconds to load the app, seconds to load the text, then another 5-10 second to load the images. And if you touch it while it's loading, you get a force close (ANR) dialog.

Maybe it's time to factory reset again... Meh.
[Nexus 7 General] Omar04:
I notice back button not working sometimes. Did you have that too? Its annoying for me.

I expect a 4.3.1 very soon.
[Nexus 7 General] sgt. meow:
Are root issues still there? I'm gonna wait for Paranoid Android 4.3 or CM10.2. Hopefully they'll do a better job at fixing weird lags than Google.
[Nexus 7 General] Whaleshark345:
Yeah the back button does not work sometimes luckily this only happened once for me in the YouTube app no matter how Manny times I pressed it I would not work fine since then though and you are right a fix hopefully will be in 4.3.1
[Nexus 7 General] sparksd:
I've seen the back button issues a couple of times but I don't recall the apps.
[Nexus 7 General] PVL_93_RU:
I think every problem people have so far happen because then APPS are not updated for appropriate compability with 4.3, plus if I'm not mistaken there's a newer API for 4.3

Let it work for a week or so, you'll see apps get updated and then all the slowdowns wopill surely begone

This for real, highest score I got on stock.

Running 4.3 100% stock and rooted

4.3 is much smoother than 4.2.2 with occasional lag but as much as 4.2.2
[Nexus 7 General] sparksd:
For me with stock& 4.3 sideloaded, MX Player says it is an unsupported Android version and closes - lots of similar posts under reviews for it in the Play store. BS Player is working for me with mp4's.
[Nexus 7 General] gc84245:
The new permissions manager on 4.3 really works! This is probably one of the most significant changes with 4.3, at least for me anyways.

Here is the play store link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.appaholics.applauncher&hl=en

Testing it out now.

As a video producer, that's not true. You gain nothing watching a higher resolution video on a lower resolution screen. On the other hand, a higher bitrate will give a better picture, many times a higher resolution video will be encoded with a higher bitrate. You can still encode a lower resolution video with the same higher bitrate though.

But to be honest, I'd prefer the 1080p video myself because then it's ready for the hd TV at home, upgraded tablet when that happens, etc. If it works, then why mess with it.
[Nexus 7 General] bluecarbon:
Just a heads up. The exposed theme engine is working on 4.3.

[Nexus 7 General] bkmaracas:
Got bored and managed to adb sideload the update on to my stock unrooted n7 - feel some things are definitely snappier, but have been a couple of occasional waiting for stuff to happen moments too - no worse than 422 though.

Just tried the restricted profiles thing, I like it!

Have Set one up called 'guests' and only activated play music, YouTube and boat browser, so folk can play with my google music all access or do a quick Google etc without my worrying that they'll look at emails or personal pics / videos or just start messing with stuff... And it doesn't clutter up my mostly full 8gb n7 too much either.

I hope when my dad's n10 gets update I can add a user profile as me and add a similar restricted profile

To that - anyone know if that'll work? I could test on n7 but new users takes up space n slows things down so bit reluctant.

Other than that experience much the same perhaps bit snappier . Typing seems better tbh, that often lags.

Will see if battery improves at all also.

Must say battery life isn't to shabby. Over 20 hrs and almost 6 he's of screen time. 4.3 is a major improvement. Wonder how it will preform on the phones.

Don't know why Facebook or tapatalk doesn't show up being used but I was using it a lot. Simpsons tapped out really drained the battery. So if it wasn't for that I should of gotten more battery life out of this charge. Can't wait till some ROMs and kernels comes out. This thing is going to fly.
[Nexus 7 General] tye_time:
I received my update this evening OTA, haven't noticed too much of a difference as of yet - still some lag as in 4.2.2

Forced update on my N4 and that seems to be smoother and just generally faster (app switching, scrolling through apps)

Glad to hear that. I like that theme which one is it?

Just for clarification, did you uninstall the xposed framework before you updated to 4.3 and then reinstall it? I assume you did since the app_process file is changed but just wanted to make sure.

Nope, just developer. Just want to experiment BT 4.0 on my N7 since it's hw supports it.

Want to measure battery life with BT 4.0 internet connection instead of WiFi. (It's easy to add BT 4.0 dongles to routers that has USB 2.0 power and OpenWRT firmware support.)

Also fun to play with BT 4.0 modules with DIY modules that sold from ~$15. Could build a home automation system with those.

Noticeably better performance here. Mine ran like a dog at times before, but it seems nicely nippy now, although not quite a match still for the Nexus 4 on which I also have 4.3 but that's to be expected. Overall though it annoys me far less than it did.

I was wondering how good is XPERIA Sola's build quality in your opinion?

Do u face any problems? For example mine already make some noises on both sides

next to volume button and power button... I guess it is because of pressure every time

I press these buttons. How do u fix it? Do you put in some paper or something like

that to make it stiff and strong? Share your opinion...

P.S.

I bought this phone a week ago.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] abhinav.mhjn:
bro everybody has this problem.my xperia sola also makes these chipping sounds when i hold it. so dont worry its normal and bro i suggest u to buy a sillicon cover for ur xperia sola to make it look safe and very cool
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] -scarface-:
I was thinking of getting a case for the phone to save it from scratches and dust but I don't think It would help with that back cover..

and I know that every Xperia Sola user faces these back cover housing problems... I just wanted to know If someone has a solution, some tips how to fix this.

Reason I am concerned about it's because I don t want to get it to condition when that back cover would be deformed completely, I ve red on Sony talk forum and have seen some pictures of half year used Xperia Sola... looks terrible, ofcourse it depends on how you use it. I use mine carefully, and first little noises appeared in a few days...

Anyway... I might buy case for the phone... maybe it helps. Thanks for reply ;)

some other thoughts?

After I get root I will try, Thanks ;)

Seems like I solved back cover problem :D wasn't that hard at all. I taped small insulating tape slices on the inside of a cover sides where it made noises ... now It does not make a single noise, feels good attached to phone :)

when I find it thru pc it show that my phone isn t compatible with this app... why?

about the tape trick, just tape only 1 peace on each side from inside of a cover in places where the noises come from... at first I thought 1 peace wouldn t be enough but with 2 on each side it s tough to attach housing to the phone.
