ramboacdc Posted 4 February 2015 Share Posted 4 February 2015 Hi Guys has anyone else updated their android yet? i did my s5 last night. so far i have had the app store crash, cannot change the background on my messages (apparently it has to stay orange and white), the vibration settings have gone so you cant change the vibrations of texts, calls etc..they all sound the same but the best bit of it all...THE SILENT MODE HAS GONE! you have a choice between sound or vibrate...thats it. you have a "do not disturb" button but that's no help to no one. anyone else updated yet?

I read it would be out early February I will be honest i dont know. my phone popped up with it last night (its around the 1gb mark as well and you need 3gb spare on your phone to install) sony will hopefully get it later in feb for the patches needed for it.

CKB Posted 1 April 2015 Share Posted 1 April 2015 I'm still waiting for a damn update! Got a Note 4 so it really should already be on lollipop but Samsung seem to be taking a fvcking age to release it in the UK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theories are that new updates deliberately slow down older models to make the handset owners buy newer phones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good phone though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CKB Posted 2 April 2015 Share Posted 2 April 2015 Still waiting for my Sony Xperia Z3 to get the update. Annoying now. It is but in a way it's also good as I heard certain phones are like test subjects & it gets released & if there are issues it gets held back on other phones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ramboacdc Posted 13 May 2015 Author Share Posted 13 May 2015 i bought some new batteries on ebay for my s5 after this update. thinking that it was maybe the battery had seen better days and it needed a new one. gave both a run over 2 days. original battery. full nights charge. got up at 7:50 used it in morning for a facebook browse, timehop etc. by the time i got to work at 9 i had 85% battery left. new battery. Same stuff. By the time i got to work at 9. 69% battery....i lost 31% in an hour and 10 minutes. has anyone found a way of sorting this yet at all?

ramboacdc Posted 11 June 2015 Author Share Posted 11 June 2015 seems to have been a new update overnight to "increase performance." still losing battery at the same rate however. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stripeyfox Posted 11 June 2015 Share Posted 11 June 2015 seems to have been a new update overnight to "increase performance." still losing battery at the same rate however. All the recent phones I've had have drained pretty quick. But I did find I was constantly checking the phone for messages etc. I recently brought a Sony smartwatch and one of the side effects has been much less frequent checking of the phone, resulting in increased battery life. It's much more discreet as well in a meeting at work to just glance at your watch to see if there is something which really needs your attention. Has helped me wean myself off checking my phone every 5 minutes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry_LCFC Posted 26 June 2015 Share Posted 26 June 2015 This thread is Android related so I wont make a new one. Has anyone used BlueStacks before on the computers/laptops? Downloaded it yesterday so I could put a movie app on my PC. Absolutely brilliant. Love having all my apps on my PC screen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
