I have noticed 2 problems that only seem to have occurred after upgrading my Nexus 4 to Android 4.4.

Sometimes, for no apparent reason, the phone will simply refuse to charge. At first I thought it might be the micro USB port going dodgy but I've ruled out a hardware issue since simply rebooting the phone fixes the issue every time. I've also tried different chargers to see if that made any difference.

The second issue is that when the phone has finished charging the phone screen turns on (as it has always done), the problem is that every 2 or 3 minutes it flashes on again, and again, and again. So at night my phone screen is constantly turning itself on and off. I always thought it was stupid that the screen turns on when it has charged or removed from the charger and wish I could turn that off anyway.

Stock ROM, unlocked but not rooted. I haven't tried resetting due to the hassle of having to reinstall all my apps and setting everything up again.

Hmmm.. Is there any way the apps and it's settings be backed up EXACTLY like how they are and then restore after factory resetting the device?

Not to mention, all this WITHOUT root and being COMPLETELY stock?
