I installed it yesterday on Nexus 5.  Some changes to get used to but overall I like it.  Today will be the first full day so I will see if it does anything positive or negative to the battery.  So far nothing is broken.  Was pretty easy.  


I guess "it just works"

Updated my Nexus 7 to 5.0.

Haven't played with it much.  I don't like the centered notification bar when you pull it down.  I'm sure I'll get used to it, though.

The battery life draw for wifi was fixed so battery life is great now. Overall better in kitkat for optimization and more user friendly now!

I'll update my N7 over the weekend, still hoping a dev puts out a ROM for my aging Galaxy Nexus.

The Priority stuff took some messing around for me to get it to work.

My phone wasn't ringing for a while until I changed some settings around.

Updated my Nexus 10, got stuck in a boot loop that resulted in my having to factory reset. I'm gonna flash the 5.0 ROM to the thing tonight. Right now my first impressions of 5 are slightly less than stellar

Yup! Downloaded, got half way through the install process and then locked up hard. No idea what caused it.

I updated my Nexus 4 to 5.0 and I think it's a good update overall. It took forever to install and configure all the apps though.  I like the slick look and the battery life has improved for me. I'm still getting used to swiping up to unlock the screen instead of sideways. I keep opening the phone tab.

Son got the OTA fro his Nexus 5 tuesday. He says his battery life is better.
Says he's still getting used to it but likes it thus far

I like the new keyboard. It seems like it brings up the next word a lot better. I like the volume bar for YouTube not being in the middle of the screen now. That said I do not like the random app crashes or the tabbed browser.

CyanogenMod is busy incorporating Lollipop in its newest iteration.  I'm running KitKat 4.4.4 on my Galaxy S3.  If I had stayed with the stock Samsung updates, I would still be stuck on Jellybean, as they stopped supporting OS updates for the S3.

I'll be surprised if Lollipop will be able to run on my phone, but I'm willing to give it a shot.  I can always revert back to KitKat.  Cyanogen runs everything I want without that damned TouchWiz bloatware.  The only thing I miss is the Samsung predictive text, although I work around that with AIType.

I flashed it last week when it came out. Quite a bit faster then KitKat. Slight increase in battery life to. Nice update.

It's not playing well with Firefox right now and all my non-cloud books got wiped in the Kindle app.  Otherwise, besides the (seemingly) random switch in where stuff is located, it seems to be working well.

Huge battery improvement with 5 over 4.4.4 on my Nexus 5. Only thing I don't like is Hangouts. Is it possible to dump that and get a simple texting app. Recommendations?
