This fix only the sound error, these others bugs do not corrects and are very important:
- Camera stops the phone
- To stop the camera, facial affect recognition.
- Photo contact shortcut "direct dialing", don't display photo contact, only default photo profile display
- Phone reboots
- Phone overheats
- Etc.

757 The update appeared to me in PCC on 10 late .

If you have solved the annoying sound bug , but for a phone that is hovering 600 € expecting much more .

. 1 - Battery , formerly with JB -intensive and lasted me about 20h. now with Kit Kat does not reach 11.

. 2 - The mobile gets hotter than before.

. 3 - As I write these lines I see a slow and inaccurate flow , delays in writing and others.

. 4 - In games with great graphics demand as Unpaved 8 there disfluencies stoppages and a clear deterioration from the previous version .

5 - . 've Experienced two system crashes and I have had to use the emergency shutdown button , has passed me without having a large active application demand.

6 - . Whether you listen to music with the Walkman application or Google play music , going to the standby screen the music widget does not appear and instead the widgets that appear are locked , you can not interact with them , it is as if wanting to show music widget and did not fail to do so the other widgets.

. 7 - The photos are still not spectacular for the fanfare that have given to the "best camera installed in a mobile world .

Which app is causing overheating? Mine has a shorter battery life (about 10 - 15% than on 4.3) but not overheating at all (as long as I avoid pairing with Toyota Touch & Go HF set - sth is broken in 4.4).

I will have to check. Havn't taken more than 3 - 4 pics in a row recently. On 4.3 video recording was working for up to 5 - 10 minutes then switched off.

Edit: took about 5 minutes and 5 to 7 pics to overheat. The phone was really hot nearby nfc logo.

Hey All,

For phone overheating issues and battery back up related issue plz update your phone through SUS to .757 and try your phone to safe mode and charge your phone after switch off. In this way battery will not be harmed and back up will not be reduced also no harm to your phone. Apply it 2-3 times but only for complete charge while switched off step.

I have .757 now and after update many issues I was facing similar to you all but now no issues as I tried as said above and also observed now phone is cool all time even continous usage for surfing and downloading over 3G till 3-4 hours. Back up is also improved as I feel.

Not sure but it may work for you also.

I encountered sometimes when I tried to change the phone ringtone volume, after I click Ok to confirm the volume, the ringtones still playing non-stop. Did anyone having the same issue?

Had the same. Updates should bring improvements, and not cripple your phone, especially when it's in the high-end >500€ range. I'll stick with 4.3, more eyecandy, and less lag/heat.
