The positive part, after a few confusing weeks, with delays in the arrival of Android Lollipop 5.0, the new version of the operating system begins to be distributed via OTA among the Nexus "Spanish". But there is also a negative part, it comes with some errors that have been detected without solving. It remains to be seen how many of the users of our country will have to deal with known bugs that affect the camera, the flashlight or some applications.
As well the companions of AndroidHelp, Android 5.0 Lollipop has begun its journey through Nexus devices in Spain. Although the factory image could already be downloaded and installed, most users always wait for it to arrive via OTA (Over The Air). Little by little, the notification that warns that the update is available will appear progressively, depending on some factors, although it should be available to everyone within a few days.
To carry out the update once we see the message, we will need to have the terminal charged to 80% and it is preferable to have a connection to a WiFi network, since it has a considerable weight that varies between the 350 and 500 MB depending on the model. Nexus 5, Nexus 7, Nexus 10 and finally Nexus 4, all of them are included in the list. To check if we have already been blessed with Android Lollipop, just go to Settings> Phone information> System updates and choose Check now. If it does not come out this way, patience, it is about to fall.
The problems especially but not only affect Nexus 5
Some problems with the WiFi that especially affected last year's smartphone were responsible for the initial delay in the launch of Android 5.0 Lollipop, but they are not the only ones affected, for example, some Nexus 7 (2013) cannot play video. From various media they inform us that there are new cases. The new integrated function of the Lantern does not work properly on Nexus 4 and 5. It is necessary to restart the device or lock and unlock as appropriate to be able to use the flashlight again and the camera.
An annoying detail, just like the glitches with the application managementFor some reason the mechanism to close them does not work at times and they continue to appear in the active multitasking advantage. Small errors that we hope will be solved quickly so as not to tarnish a job really well done by Google with version 5.0.
