If we talk about the latter, then it has quashed the bugs related to launcher and notification, the media player in the notification pulldown fails to fully display and function, and the Camera being non-functional at startup with a black screen.

Likewise, issues regarding Status bar icons missing corner padding, Notification shade message folding breaks, Kernel issues causing restarts, and Full phone restarts due to class loader have also been ironed out.
