Lollipop is currently installing I do I stop the installation?

[AC Question]

I've been avoiding installing lollipop but this morning When I turned on cell I accidentally hit install now instead of install later. I removed battery re inserted battery and it's still trying to update. Can I stop this update on my s5 with Verizon? I feel lollipop is the reason my last s5 had to be replaced.
Thank you,
Beverly

Welcome to AC.

Let it install, then do a Cache Partition wipe. A Factory Reset may be worth doing as well....let us know if you need advice on backing up your personal data first.

About the only way to stop a phone that's started updating and is past about 25% is to delete the update file - and that bricks the phone.
