Samsung S5 Lollipop update

Anonymous
Not applicable

So, I receieved the new lollipop update but am hearing stories of battery drain and apps not working, and am now unsure as to whether to bother updating as right now the phone is working nicely.

 

What's the general concensus?  Is it worth the risk and should I take the plunge?  Is the update as bad as people are saying?

 

Thanks,

D

I think that would have been the advice given by our experts if honest. I have a family member who had the S5 last week. He has lollipop waiting to download. He wont do it just yet.....

You must do a factory reset as the whole framework of the firmware is completely different.
