Lollipop for my Note 3

[Cleoriff]

Ok guys...that time I have been dreading is here. Those of you who know me at all...will get my drift.

Over the months I have been reading all the posts about peoples experiences with Lollipop. ...I have been quite comfortable thinking not me...thank god it hasn't got to me yet. "If it ain't broke don't fix it' is my motto

So I will set the scene. I am in Spain on holiday with the family. I charge my lovely Note 3 last night and when I get up this morning there is the icon I have been dreading...I click on it very very gently (I would hate anything untoward to happen if my finger slipped you see)

I read this awful sentence

Update package downloaded. Install now? (and THAT word....LOLLIPOP)

I exit very carefully, close my phone...put it on the table and there it has remained untouched......

No biggie to you lot. Me?...I feel I have a ticking time bomb awaiting....

All looks a bit funny to me. It changed my damn wallpaper without my permission....Still have a cheetah cub...but another one....

Still installing updates....AND all stuff I backed up...is still there...I think ...

Sounds normal. It probably used a backup wallpaper you had previously.

[Cleoriff]

There ya go...

[jonsie]

Proud of you

[Cleoriff]

You wouldn't believe how frightened I was. I went back to instructions posted by Rich...checked, double checked....and checked again......and then clicked the damn install button....

I may have to have a lie down I think....

Great job. Well done 😁 x

A major update can be scary. I was so worried but everything went smoothly with no issues at all. Battery life improved after a few charge cycles and a few adjustments in the settings.

I just want to thank you all for such support. Seriously I have made a big joke of it ...but you all have been great. All that said I will be giving the solution to @MI5....not only did he give instructions on the thread....but the PM's that have been going to and from me to him would probably fill a page...

I make no secret of my technophobia......but hey..when it all goes to plan, its another thing I learn. Once again sincere thanks to all

Piece of cake after all then, glad you've managed it ok.
