  1. Anyone received lollipop update for P7-L10 as yet? It is June now and I have not received anything yet in the Asia-Pacific Region.

  2. Hmpf. wonder if the Samsung SM-705T will ever get Lillipop update.
    Not only that the phone sw is unstable (incoming call sometimes stops phone sw from working but not from ringing) there also seems to be a side effect with bluetooth (loses connectivity with BMW Bluetooth – neither Apple nor Npkia/Win Phone 8 had similar problems).

  3. If you are concerned about battery life, do not update your device. My LG G3 used to last at least from morning to bedtime, but after the update I have to charge during the day. My Nexus 7 charge used to last 2-3 days, but now doesn’t last a single day.

    1. Many who upgraded their samsung s5 have had the same problem- The fix for most has been wiping the cache then factory reset. pain in the ssa but seemed to have worked. I’m getting a bit MORE life from my battery now than even before and the s5 already had great battery life. Good luck.

  4. I’m waiting upgrade for my M7 1 month,allready!! Where is the problem? And you don’t wrote nothing about M7…!?

  5. March for the z3? Got a source for that? Sony said February. March was mentioned by one small Canadian carrier very few people will be interested in.

  6. I have been running lollipop on my m7 for over a now. It’s notification upgrade is a hell of a lot smoother than any other version.

    Can’t wait for my Note 4 to get it.

  7. Wonder about the Verizon moto g xt1028. Wonder who will get it out first among the CDMA variants. . Boost or Verizon
