Re: Google Android

Re: Google Android
I accepted the update on my Nexus 7 (2012 - WiFi) and it now runs badly. Apps that were stable now crash, the SystemUI crashes, it runs really slowly, then speeds up to OK then snails to unusable. I would recommend holding off if you can.

Re: Google Android
Lollipop appears to work fine for my Nexus 10, hope it is also on my LG G3 when available.

I used this program to put kitkat back on. It wasnt that difficult but read it several times before starting. Took about 90 minutes from start to finish. If youve got stuff on it that you want make a copy of it before starting. There was nothing on mine that I didnt have elsewhere.

Re: Google Android
My nexus 10 has flagged a system update, still going to hold on a few days to see if anything gets posted on the tech sites I frequent, I'm happy to wait a bit until its right.

Re: Google Android
Only issues if you can call them that was 1 crash in chrome and the tesco app froze a couple of times during an online shop but recovered ok.
Overall it seems very stable, some apps need updating but that's to be expected.

Re: Google Android
1 feature I really like after the Google play services update is the ability to set trusted locations, so once set I don't have to enter a password for my Nexus 10 at home.
1 bug found so far in Lollipop, a few times all sound stops working until a restart.

Re: Google Android
My Nexus 7 does have that. In Settings go to Security then select Smart Lock and you can set it there.

I don't know if this happens with windows phones, other android phones or is just a Samsung issue but my 32gb micro SD card has apparently started to degrade to a point where when it's in the phone the phone reports that it doesn't have a sim inserted within a few minutes of booting. The only remedy is to run the phone without the SD card.
This has happened twice now, once in my wife's note 2 and now my s4. It's not as if we buy cheap no brand cards, they are branded but only seem to work for a year or so before causing issue.

Re: Google Android
Not had that issue before, although i have had to reinsert a microSD card again a few times in my old S3 as it wasnt recognised.
