I use the BTU ROM on my Note 4. It's perfect.

The Lollipop on my wife seems fine thus far.

That doesn't sound right at all

 

[CptPeters]

Correct. The S5 will make the jump straight from 4.4.2 to 5.0

O jirre. At least it says 'on' and not 'in'

I had major battery drain using the Polish 5.0 release.

[faniebraai]

I had major battery drain using the Polish 5.0 release.

Which one? They've had 3 releases so far. I'm on the third one.

 

[hawker]

had? sorted now?

No, I went back to 4.4.2

Which one? They've had 3 releases so far. I'm on the third one.

I think the 1st or 2nd one. (Not sure when the 3rd one was released?)

Is your battery life similar?

 

[faniebraai]

No, I went back to 4.4.2

2 and 3 was released in December.

Wife reported no battery drain on 1. I went from 1 to 3.

Oh ok, I think I'll give 3 a try then.

I see Lollipop has a major memory leak bug, so I'll stay on Android Kitkat for now.

That has been there since forever. My wife has had no issues so far. Weird.

I guess it how it affects you, will depend if you use a lot of multitasking/apps on your phone.

Don't think people with 3GB RAM on their phones will notice much of a slowdown.

On my S5 with 2GB RAM, I have 1.67GB RAM available, so might screw me rather bad.

I'm talking about the S5. But then again, my wife doesn't use a lot of apps to be honest.

Well, I'll just have to wait for Android 5.1, which will have both the memory leak and silent mode fixed.

Just wondering when that will be.

 

[CptPeters]

ill stick to kitkat for another few months.

Also the heads up notifications drive me nuts. It makes the status bar unusable while it's up there, and if you swipe the notification away it's completely dissmissed, which is something I don't want to happen either.
