Maleshaman 15 Posted May 9, 2015 Posted May 9, 2015 So a few days maybe a week ago I got the lollipop upgrade for my android. What I want to talk about in this topic is what exactly changed in this upgrade over the last one (think it was KitKat?) I've seen a few graphical changes on my s5, some of them being the active task folder, lighter keyboard/ browser etc. And probably my best discovery, recording footage without having to root. Hail the non roof bricks! What other things changed between these versions? Quote

Nosotraes 349 Posted May 9, 2015 Posted May 9, 2015 It's smoother and adds some new features. Trust me, I read Sammobile. Quote
Maleshaman 15 Posted May 9, 2015 Author Posted May 9, 2015 Read the article up here nothing really great.. As for smoother interface it's mehish Quote
Nosotraes 349 Posted May 9, 2015 Posted May 9, 2015 Lollipop is faster and smoother. Guess you're using S5 or S4? Or Note 4? Because at Sammobile they said Lollipop is way faster than Kitkat:/ Quote
Maleshaman 15 Posted May 9, 2015 Author Posted May 9, 2015 Using a Samsung galaxy s5 indeed yes, but I don't see a noticeable increase in things. Quote
sulla 127 Posted May 9, 2015 Posted May 9, 2015 (edited) If you were running KitKat on a high end device already, will barely notice any speed or performance increase, as KitKat was relatively stable and smooth. On nexus 7 coming from KitKat to lolipop on day, main changes being visual (settings, keyboard, notification bar), just a huge make over to clean the interface, battery life was slightly improved.

Maleshaman 15 Posted May 10, 2015 Author Posted May 10, 2015 Thanks, that's probably why I don't notice a whole lot of changes in speed. The interface stuff was really noticeable as my phone got updated, I gues most of my questions been answered xd How do you guys feel about lollipop? Quote
Pliskin 41 Posted May 10, 2015 Posted May 10, 2015 Use symbian and you get early warspear updates Quote
Nosotraes 349 Posted May 10, 2015 Posted May 10, 2015 Kitkat is a very heavy but smooth OS, but Lollipop is smoother. Quote
Maleshaman 15 Posted May 11, 2015 Author Posted May 11, 2015 Only thing I'll point out dueing experience, whenever I'm charging my phone whilst on youtube or something I notice a particular spot of my phone that gets extremely hot, haven't had this issue back with KitKat. Specific spot would be next to the camera. Quote
Nosotraes 349 Posted May 11, 2015 Posted May 11, 2015 That has, as far as I know, nothing to do with the software. Quote
