Updated yesterday,found a few bugs already.hopefully,someone can help resolve.

1) screen keeps flashing when keyboard is active.
SOLVED : changed keyboard theme and problem is gone.maybe a bug in default theme.

2) music playback skips / jerks for a split second,not all the time,just every once in a while.i am using jetaudio.this never happened on stock 4.2.2

3)touch screen not as responsive.sometimes have to touch a few times.was working perfectly on 4.2.2. There is an app to fine tune screen which i used for my old galaxy tab,cant remember what it was called.

4)battery drain still a big problem.i had same problem with 4.2.2 maybe i have a dodgy pad.anyone notice an improvement in the battery on 4.4.2


Thats all i found so far,pls post if anyone finds anymore.

Same here ,updated last night.
I had the screen flash but only when keyboard was used in conjunction with internet,using memo pad for instance it did not flash.
I use Poweramp and music is jumpy and has the static hissing noise that others with a Lg G2 have experienced,funnily enough not so bad with default music player,so could be a compatibility issue with Kitkat.
Touch screen ok for sensitivity ,but i have had a few crackles of static occasionally when touching the screen after a break ,watching a video for instance.
Battery drain is the same as yours ,but was with Jellybean also.
All in all don't know why i bothered so far no pluses at all just drawbacks

It is much more snappier,feels more smoother.will try another music player.might also try dyn kernel ,if compatible.

I did some testing with the leaked 018a KitKat I am using.

First of all, I experienced no static or sound issues such as the LG G2 headphone bug (BTW, the G2 ROM in my sig has no such issue). I also have PowerAmp, and checked with both loudspeakers and my G2 stock headphones.

I also checked the video, using a 1080p copy of Avatar played on BS Player Free (better than MX or others IMHO). I watched a half hour, with headphones, and saw not one single glitch, and about 5-6% battery drain (screen at 45% brightness BTW). Although no other program was running, things such as email sync and others were left running normally.

I was just browsing xda thru app and music skipped again,but looks like its the pad thats freezing and not the music player. Because i was scrolling thru a thread and it froze for like a second and music stopped,when it came back,i was half way down the thread.

i don't think so.dyn kernel good for battery life but,not sure it works for stock 4.4.2 .i actually did a factory reset earlier,and not experiencing random freezes.touch sensitivity and battery drain still exists.

I was getting about 7.5 to 8 hours of screen on time with new kk.
Before in 4.2.2 was getting about 6 to 6.5. The difference is substantial. Lag is gone too

After the factory reset the music /pad freeze seems to have gone.now video playback with mx player has that problem,was not a problem on 4,2,2. Is there a way to wipe cache,wipe dalvik before reset,like on custom recovery ? Also.i noticed the update centre app (brown box with android popping out ) is always auto updating,even though i disabled it,it just keeps showing up.maybe this is what is draining my battery.
