The Big Lollipop Q&A Thread

Hey guys!
Now that we have the luxury of almost being the first on the world to test non-testing Lollipop, can we start a Q&A thread about it?
First and foremost, I'm curious about the new memory management in this Release. As you can see in this threads 1 XDA Thread 2 (Official Motorola Forums one) the problems with RAM management in KitKat were MASSIVE.
- How do you feel it is as of right now? It's still there? It's a little better?
- How does the CPU respond? Could you run an Antutu Benchmark to compare with KitKat?
- I know it's a little early to ask, but I'm curious about Project Volta. Do you notice more battery life?
Thanks, and keep posting questions!

I'm on the same boat as you bro, that's why I'm trying to let escape my anxiety by asking lucky XT-1064 users how Lollipop feels. There's a lack of info about this!

@oscillat0r.lfo
My thoughts exactly.
But the biggest gripe I currently have, is the RAM (mis)management.
Its driving me nuts
It doesnt really matter much to me about the benchmarks but the mem-leak and the battery life HAS to improve with the LP update, or I'll be a really sad bunny

Software Update (Stock) Galaxy Note 4 N910F

Hello guys,
Many of you allready have the Note 4 rooted, but I do not. I'm from Portugal and have a N910F model.
Last Sunday or Monday I just installed the recent software update that my Note 4 was asking for me to install it. All Stock.
The problem is that after the update, I'm having a poor battery life for example at night. Before I could have just 2% drop at night, now I have like 10/12%. I'm having wakelocks from time to time, without touching the phone.
Anyone knows how to report this to the developers? Because this was a poor update..
Thank you guys!

Goodbye Nexus 4, Hello Pixel XL

I would like to express myself. This was my 2nd Android device and Nexus device and I haven't looked back since. The best at the time of release, and was able to use it till now, even got to use Nougat on it via custom ROMs. Huge thanks to the developer who are keep making it better with the every release of new OS and porting it for it. Special thanks to @ganachoco @sykopompos @snak3ater @spezi77 and all the others too. Sorry if I forgot somebody. I wanted to buy the 6P but due to some reasons it got postponed then Google release the Pixel and I've been eyeing it for a while, the XL model because I am using N4 for a long time and need a bigger phone. My Nexus 4's performance not good, obviously it can be better with some tweaks but I left that tweaking side of me. Also battery life became poor, the camera had more noise than usual.
So that's it for me, I would like to say goodbye and thank you. See you all on the other side (Pixel forums).
RIP, Nexus 4 2013 - November 27, 2016

Hum, that's kind of sad to read -- but definitely a wise decision to move on and experience something new, try something different!
Maybe we will meet again on the Pixel (XL) forums, the sooner or later.. who knows.
Bye for now.
P.S.: Are you willing to contribute your Nexus 4? I could need an alternative device to continue developments. Please PM me. :fingers-crossed:

Yes, really enjoyed the Nexus 4. For me, this is still the best looking Nexus. Can't wait to get my Pixel XL tomorrow! :silly:

I surely will.

N4 was my first smartphone too, although not my first Android device, which was an Acer Iconia A100.

Question Oxygen 11.0.5.5

Hey folks,
today I got through system update (My device: EB2103) a hint to download Oxygen 11.0.5.5 (Still on 11.0.3.3 atm, 11.0.4.4 didn't showed up for me), but few users on One Plus forum complaining about heavily battery drains, even since they updated to 11.0.4.4:
OnePlus Community

Did anyone of you installed this update and can tell me/us anything about the battery life?
Would be a pleasure to know more about users experiences, before I install this update.
Thanks in advance!

It's gets me through the day. I charge it only once a day at night....

Thanks for sharing!
Is it maybe possible, that you can record battery stats a whole day without recharging your phone?

Will do and get back to you asap...workdays now so....

I got a Nord CE (12/256GB) a month or so ago and received the update within the past 3 days. No obvious disimprovement in battery performance so far (I had charged to 100% just prior) but I did have it on airplane mode for a few hours last night. In my experience the battery on this device is pretty good

I am facing battery drain , severe network and connectivity issues after latest update..

Thanks to all your replies and screenshots!
Here are my screenshots. I charged my phone upto 100% and went to sleep 8-9 hours ago. The 2nd one shows whole device usage. I'm still on 11.0.3.3 and I think, I will stay a bit longer on it and investigate for more results.
I also use the 12GB ram version. My Buildnumber is: EB13BA (EEA)
