To be expected though as it's a previous generation device.

I have a problem where Pushbullet does not push all my notifications to my desktop (chrome) anymore, esp WhatsApp notifications.

Fixed - cleared Cache and Data, started Pushbullet again and followed the setup prompts.

“You will be able to see ripples, real-time shadows, and other 3D elements,” LG said.

It added that the new battery saving features go hand-in-hand with Lollipop’s Ambient-mode (or always-on display).

“This allows your device’s screen to remain on while it is at low battery life,” said LG. “It is intended to be used to view notifications at a glance without having to turn on or unlock the screen manually, thus conserving battery power.”

Have not seen any of this magic yet - especially Ambient-mode - does it need to be enabled somewhere? Can't find the setting under Display...

I couldnt wait and flashed lollipop last month. I'm now on the 6th official lollipop update v20f(from v20a to v20e). Anything before v20e has bad battery life and overheating issues. Can anyone tell us which version is available for SA users?

It's v20e-zaf-xx but my battery life seems worse since the upgrade.
