Verizon S5 Lollipop Bugs

[TJ Kaiser]

The only issue I have so far is regarding volume. It took me a while to find in the settings how to change notifications volume. I also can't seem to find how to keep my phone on mute for a set time period. I used to be able to use the blocking settings for while I was sleeping and now the option is gone and I have no clue how to set it up with the new upgrade. Help!

I was using blocking mode too so I had to do some digging. In settings go to "sound and notification". When there, scroll down and tap on interruptions.

Instead of blocking mode, now it's called "interruptions" or "priority interruptions".

My phone has become so slow after the update and battery life is horrible, almost nonexistent.

My phone battery life sucks now and slight hearing issue. My biggest concern though is that my heart rate sensor light comes on whenever something comes withing about .5 inches of the sensor. Anyone else have this issue or know a fix?

I did the update 2 days ago, was early a.m. & didn't have coffee yet, the update took almost 2 hours & the battery life is way less & I get messages telling me that the phone is running hot & it seems to be a bit slower.... I did the "wipe cache partition" & it didn't help much.. so it looks like a factory reset is in order... but my question is... will it reset to kitkat or lollipop. this phone was perfect as it was... not happy about this at all

Have you tried a battery pull?

Is anybody else having issues with the Dialer? I factory reset my phone, and now I can't dial more than 3 numbers before the app crashes. Contacts I'm not having an issue with, just the "keypad" screen in the Dialer/Contacts app.

Is this happening for anybody else?

Agreed - Battery life seems negatively impacted and the phone is sluggish betwixt screens/apps.

Just installed 5.0 last night. My phone locked up once while connecting via Bluetooth to my car. The phone ended up rebooting itself. Other than that is has been good so far. Battery life seems to be the same but the OS overall seems just a bit snappier. Multitasking button seems to bring up recent apps just a split second faster..

I updated and my phone gets excessively hot, the battery drains super fast (I have a zero lemon battery, usually last 2 to 3 days) my touch pal keyboard has a mind of its own now, over all extremely sluggish on everything. It totally changed the performance on my phone, not a happy camper.....I did a wipe cache partition to try to speed it up, I'm waiting to see if that helps. I'm trying not to do a factory reset just yet....

Me too. The L in Android L stands for Late to work.

This is supposedly some new feature. I dont have time to deal with the bs of learning a work around.

Keep us updated on the battery life and other issues.

Ran my Verizon supplied OTA update last night. So far, it seems slower.
It is slower to respond when opening an app, etc.

not really a bug, but I don't like that all 4 volume sliders are now buried under settings.

Many people have reported that a battery pull has helped and also clearing cache

I upgraded to Lollipop today and it's draining my battery other than that I like it...

Yes but battery life was still poor afterwards, however it seems fixed now. Have gone all day with my phone and only down 15% with moderate use. Overall phone is still running slow and my battery is starting to overheat.
