HTC One, Moto G Android 4.4 Kitkat Problems: Google Offers Solutions
HTC One and Moto G users have reported a host of problems brought about by the installation of Android 4.4 Kitkat. Among these problems include signal loss and huge battery drops.
Google has offered solutions, telling device owners to uninstall applications like Skype, which can help address bugs and other battery problems. However, this may not be an option for many who rely on Skype for personal and business interaction. Google admitted that camera using applications have been related to bug problems previously, but those have been rare occasions.
Apart from signal and battery problems, Moto G users have been plagued with other issues, such as: lack of airplane icon notification, in which the device does not display the setting, a recurring "No SIM' notification, pop errors related to airplane mode, dropped calls, signal problems during calls.
Meanwhile, HTC One users have also been experiencing the same problem, according to Tech Radar. In response to the problems, HTC sent out a statement to Android Central.
"We are aware of that a limited number of HTC users are experiencing difficulties with the Kitkat update. As a result, all FOTA updates have been temporarily suspended. HTC is committed to providing customers with the best possible mobile experience and we are working hard to resolve the issue quickly".
As a temporary solution, tech experts are advising HTC One and Moto G users to switch to Airplane mode. They also suggest sporadically turning on and off the device throughout the day and clearing caches.
