Lollipop for S5, now live!

[Chris_K]

Lollipop, lollipop, where for art thou lollipop?

I am here, says Lollipop while standing atop a shiny Samsung Galaxy S5!

Okay enough of the ye olde talk – Lollipop means business. If you thought Jellybean was buttery smooth, then you’ve not seen what Lollipop can do. This is a major platform update and isn’t just a collection of minor bug fixes or anything like that… This is a full blown update – new eye candy, new & fresh menus, new features – all while keeping the system running smooth & fluid while keeping your battery life in check too. You can find out here what Lollipop can do > http://www.android.com/versions/lollipop-5-0/

The update is now live via KIES and should be live via OTA update towards the end of the week, so go grab it now and let us know your thoughts on the new update

Good news

Yeah, I see it most days. Will try clearing the Contacts app cache when it happens again and see if this helps.

Do you have an app killer downloaded on the phone?

Nope. I don't go near those things. They're bad news.

So the general thought seems to be that Lollipop for the S5 is buggy so when will an update be released to fix the issues?

Google have already developed as far as 5.1 for Nexus devices and Samsung are about to release 5.02 for their devices, so it won't be long before they all catch up.

As far as i'm aware its only 5.1 that fixes all the bugs.

I'm running 5.0.2 at the moment with no major issues, but 5.1 will be better still.
