Lollipop....Worth the update ?

[cjp40]

Am I the only person underwhelmed with Lollipop ? After months of eagerly waiting for the
official update......phhhf. Disappointed Cant think of anything that makes the upgrade worthwhile.
I know some of you will go on about SmartLock ,but i just cant get it to work properly on my S5.
The pale/light themes make reading difficult, and the notification bar that pops up is just a pain in the arse.
Seriously thinking of going back to 4.4.2

what about the battery issue? i hear that's the main complaint.

I've not noticed a huge difference in battery life, still get a day with moderate use

5.0 was buggy hence why Google released the updates to fix so quickly. At the same time they released 5.0 they pushed it to manufacturers such as Samsung, Samsung started working on it, it was later found to be buggy but Samsung continued to release it anyway.

5.0 on S5 is rubbish and visually no different than 4.4.2 so I would just stick with 4.4.2 and avoid 5.0 altogether.

No your not. Really not impressed at all. Gone back to 4.4.2 and staying there until they bring out something that doesn't suck as much!

Is 4.4.2 the latest KK ROM for the S5 or did it ever receive 4.4.4 ?

I updated to LP on day 1, starting to wonder if I should downgrade to KK

Lollipop worth it for me simply only for lockscreen notifications. That's all I want.
