Basically nothing extra special process happened what so ever, most consumption on screen by 60+% followed by google service.

It also self restart like hell, maybe it because i made some tweaks here n there through audism and tweakpro sweat.gif

here's my update on the issues i'm having after 4.3 update.

apps random crashes - most crashes are SOLVED with manual updates / redownloading the apps, others persistent crashes could be solved with factory reset and redownloading the app

gallery lag and freeze - SOLVED by backing up the sd card, and doing a reformat on the sd card.

significant battery draining when using -  icon_question.gif

wifi connections showing unstable -  icon_question.gif  tested the wifi problem a few times with different wifis at different location. and manage to reset my home modem a few times, and even adjusting the modem channel, to see whether its my modem problem or phone problem. seems like a phone problem to me. the wifi shows that its still connected, and running, and i might still b able to on9 with the connectivity. but notifications show "wifi is unstable" and prompt me to "auto connect to other available wifi". dint experience this problem b4 update.

conclusion: will go for a factory reset to see if it solves the other unsolved problems. but doesnt seems related with factory reset or not  hmm.gif

i din experience any self restart wo.... hmm.gif

from my observations....

the lags and crashes are caused by compatibility of the old version apps with 4.3

though, play store still prompts you to update the apps. after the apps updates. it still crashes / hang. so i do agree on the factory reset suggested by other fellow pros & bros.

after the reset.do a manual download of new version of the apps that you have. rather than jus updating the app. but do take note, that some apps with temp files / saved files (like games) might be gone.
so choose the particular apps which seems to be a bit sluggish after the update, but doesnt yield important info. and do a full back up on the others.

as... i still felt that 4.3 fluidity on the GUI and other areas out performed 4.2.2
so to judge that samsung screw up 4.3 might not be the best conclusion.

android is an open source when apps and the OS itself is developed at such variety wher crashes is a norm.
so i believe if v can follow the correct steps give our phone the new updates. v would b able to minimize the problems, and maximize the potential of 4.3 nod.gif
