Galaxy Note 3 4.4.2 Kit Kat update

[timmy75]

after updating the latest firmware battery life like not that lasting anymore leh, any one feel the same way also?

Battery feel no diff. Do you use ext sd card? Battery super drain if you put pdf in ext sd card (index service will use more battery than screen).

Good to hear that. It helps in most cases if there isn't any rough app.

Is yours totally cannot write?

This is a strange thing. I usually use Ghost Commander and I cannot write to ext sd. I try ES Explorer and have no issue. Maybe some app were coded with some old API not compatible with Note 3 KK?

Probably that those apps developers have not updated their codes yet to work with KittyKat!

Google will have to change their codes but unlikely that they will do it. They made it that all 3rd party apps cant use the external memory card. Only internal phone apps can use. This really defeats the purpose of an ext SD card.

Now I cannot xfer files from my internal memory to my ext card using ES file explorer because its a 3rd party app. Only the original samsung file manager can do it.

My shows which i download using Quai Bo (QVOD) cannot be saved to my ext SD card and its says my ex SD card not inserted. This is also the same for UTorrent and Bittorrent android apps.

Google did not announce this change in their changelog for kitkat. They deliberate did it for a purpose. But I do not see what valid purpose there is.

Google the net for Kitkat sd card issues and you will read all about it.

After updating to the latest FW yesterday, I forgot to charge the phone when I went to sleep. When I wake up, I was pleasantly surprised that the battery dropped only around ~2% (the battery % line was quite flat from 11pm to 6am).
