They don't have to install Lollipop.

Just came back from installing the latest greatest. My advice: DON'T. There are a number of problems reported and for some reason this install recognizes only 16GB and not 32GB. I am reverting to the Preview build as we speak.
I encountered this last night. Was such a buzz kill after trying to flash for an hour with nexus root kit. Storage came right after wiping the cache and resetting

There are a lot of other complaints. Any on your side?

I didn't have this issue.

Everything seems snazzy here.

I took the plunge and upgraded to Lollipop using fastboot commands (1st time for me), leaving out the userdata IMG, so that my current data remained intact. I also rooted using CF-auto-root. So far, so good. No obvious issues that I can see.

Anybody get the OTA update yet?

Nope, just got the Calender update this morning which was announced a few days ago. Have the feeling that the firmware will be next week maybe (for me).

:depressed crying:

So far...
-I miss the gallery app, never been a fan of photos.
-Definitely prefer the messaging app over hangouts to handle sms's.
-hate the annoying notification message from the lightflow app - impatiently waiting for them to push an update to fix this.

1. Download QuickPic
2. Glad to hear.
3. Can't you disable the notification in the App Settings menu?
