AFTER the upgrade, andriod file transfer is not seeing the phone, and in tethering says "USB not connected" (usb is connected, different ports, diff. cables, restarted every which way). Am I alone on this?

Battery is so so.... Google Play Services is still taking way to much battery usage. It shows my GPS has been on for 45 mins, but I opened the maps app once for a min to lookup a restaurant. Previous version I turned off high accuracy and my battery life increased dramatically. I may have to do it again. :\
I was able to transfer music and text files from my Macbook Pro to my Nexus 5 using AFT, after sideloading the OTA file. So, I am not sure why yours would not work. How did you upgrade your phone?

I did a clean (wiped all my data, apps and photos) install of 5.1 directly from Google's website. I've decided not to add any apps until I need them.
The phone is fast. Must faster than before. It charges quite quickly for some reason. I'll see how the battery goes over the next few days.

Today I've noticed that face unlock was not working anymore. When I try to use it it'll give me 2 or 3 "face unlock is not responding" in a row then not bother trying again until the next time I restart the phone. Going into settings to try setting face unlock again gets force closes of face unlock as well.

O M G. It is not a fluke. I have the best battery life now. I USED to have great battery life until I think three updates ago and it went down the toilet and stayed that way. It would burn up 20 to 25% of my battery being completely idle and unused for 9 hours at work, with WiFi on and on a WiFi network, even. Every single day. Regardless of any settings. Oh, and as of Lollipop, I can't even tell what was using the power, because the only things listed were all "1%" and added up to maybe 6%, which obviously doesn't equal the missing 25% of my battery. (I *hate* what they did to the battery stats in 5.X).
After THIS update (5.1) on Friday, I immediately noticed a difference, but it wasn't a controlled test over a weekend. But I had that test today: I got home from work and the battery was at 96%!!!! And I even used the phone several times (three short calls, and two web searches). It is back to the way it used to be. And I did *NOTHING* to change anything. I didn't reset it, didn't clear cache partition, didn't change any settings, I didn't change any installed apps, nothing.
I hope this lasts, because this is a far more reasonable standby time.
Wow
??? I posted last week that I got the OTA last week. Yep, it started. One of the few times I got the update early. Still nothing on my Nexus 10, though..... although the one at work got updated last week.

It looks like 5.1 has a memory leak also. :/
