Android has been troublesome for the last few weeks with Google experiencing delay with the Android 4.4 KitKat update for the Nexus 4 and Samsung suffering from severe issues with its Android 4.3 Jelly Bean update for the Galaxy S3 that led further to an update delay altogether.

The Android 4.4 KitKat OTA update has finally started rolling out to Nexus 4. While most of the users already have it, some have started to report major issues with the update. Although most problems are not major and make the device unusable, these truly made the Android experience an unpleasant one.

Nexus 4 owners have reported to experience issues with the lockscreen while they swipe to the right side to open the camera. Some users had problems removing a widget from the home screen, which gets stuck at "X Remove."

Both bugs are minor compared to what other users are reportedly experiencing after the Android 4.4 KitKat update. Some Nexus 4 owners reported having problems with the phone dialer and home button that do not work at all. Bugs are not present at all times. While some may experience just one or two, an unfortunate user may experience the bugs all at the same time. The one thing that all Nexus 4 owners who are experiencing Android 4.4 KitKat problems have in common is that they all used the OTA upgrade to replace Android 4.3 Jelly Bean (JWR66Y) with Android 4.4 KitKat (KRT16S).

Google hasn't announced any fix or update yet. But one of the advantages of Android is that users can always do it manually. A suggested fix is to do a factory reset and hope for things to go smoothly the second time. Note that a factory reset will erase any apps and files stored in the Nexus 4.

The second suggested solution is to run the setup wizard from ADB again, a solution that users have reported to be successful in fixing several Android 4.4 KitKat bugs. This solution is for people who don't want to wipe out their phones. To do this, type the following command within ADB: adb shell am start -n com.google.android.setupwizard/.SetupWizardTestActivity

If the update hasn't arrived to your Nexus 4, it is recommended to avoid it until Google releases some kind of update or fix. If you are too eager to try out Android 4.4 KitKat, it should be fine because the bugs do not damage the device anyway, it's just that it can surely be annoying.
