Same problem here (Indonesia), Samsung Grand 2, GPS unable to lock at all after update KitKat.

I was advised to do factory data reset by Samsung Center, same cause - one or more application updates has crash with KitKat.

Loosen back panel and tightening it back the screw doesnt work as well. No update from Samsung. This is a worldwide issue. Kitkat vs Grand 2 issue.

      Tried everything including reinstall and then discovered a very simple solution:-

      1. Turn on Developer Options (tap build number 7 times in About Device in Settings/General).

      2. Tick Do Not Keep Activities

      Not only does my phone not crash any more but it's twice as fast.

      Please give me a mention if you re-post this fix.

                  Hey guys!
                  i had updated to kitkat from jellybean and then i started facing the problem of blue screen and auto restart. After repeated complaints to service centre and samsung delhi office i always got a answer from them saying this happens due to 3rd party apps ( apps from playstore).This answer was stupid!!! I think then samsung should stop providing their handsets with play store then! I am very much frustrated because 20K have gone wasted. The handset has turned out to b useless now if they say of not installing apps frm playstore! F*** off SAMSUNG!!!

                        I m from rajasthan purchased Samsung grand 2 from pondycherry on Feb 22,2014 but last 3 months my camera is not working I've gone to many of ur service centres even to ur pondycherry centre they are demanding bill to repair it. my dear sir I would like to say that bill of the mobile is not an pan card or driving licence which is to b carried all the time pl instruct ur centres to see imei numbers and accept the system for repair and give us as soon as possible . More over all centres want to keep mobile for 4-5 days for repairing it is really very dissapointing us and makes us re think that should v go for any other product of Samsung or not.please give me better solution if possible thnx and I hope u realise my problem
