                                  The power key is not working most of the times after updating it to Kitkat. So during those times i am neither able to switch off the phone nor reboot it, and also not able to take screenshots. Big problem. Feeling lost!

That will solve your lags and hangs. And about the charging I lost my lg charger long ago.. since then im using Samsung charger and it takes 2hrs and 15/20 mins to charge from 0 to 100%. So brother change your charger. 4.4.2 Kitkat has no issue with slow charging.

                                        Anonym, 04 Aug 2014Benchmarks wise I've noticed quite the opposite. I bet you... moreYes I didn't go for factory rest. But i've check it via Google benchmark has fallen down.
                                        And also I forgot to mention my notification light is not working when I get a miss call, messages or anything. It only works when I plugged my charger. Yes in settings I turned it on but still no use.
