Hello all, 

 

I have had a look and couldn't find a thread directly related to this so please exuse me if its duplicated elseware. With Google offically rolling out 5.0 (lollipop) to Nexus 5 and 7 Wifi I thought it would be good to have a dedicated thread where we can update people. 

 

http://www.dailytech.com/Google+Initiates+Rollout+of+Lollipop+Updates+for+Nexus+5+7+and+10/article36...

 

If you get the update please state if your Nexus is unbranded and model please. 

 

I have a Wifi only Nexus 7 32GB, obvously unbranded, and as of now there is no update......

Had the update on my nexus 7 2012 yesterday and am pleasantly surprised to be honest. It seems less laggy than it had become on kk but I did do a factory reset after the update.

I also installed the google now launcher to give it the new look, because without it the app draw and homescreens remain unchanged from before.

I have it on my Nexus 4 and it works OK. There are definitely some useful features on it (countdown to ful charge, battery saver, torch app built in) and some things that are not bad, but going to take a little bit of getting used to (switching between apps, notification set up).

 

One thing that has hit me is that I re-downloaded the o2 priority app. On loading, it cannot locate me with GPS and shows no offers in my area. When I try and search by area, it allows me to type in and find my location (London) but doesn't actually allow me to select it.

 

Does anyone else have this issue? Not sure if it is Lollipop related or not!

Great to hear you views on the update @Anonymous .

 

With regards to the app issues, restart your phone and see if that helps, if not, let me know slight_smile

 

If anyone else sees this problem too, post here so we're aware!
