Verizon's Samsung Galaxy S5 Now Getting Android 5.0 Lollipop Rollout

Well, so much for my idea. lol
Sorry deborah! I'm definitely not a fan of it as well. Hopefully a future update will correct it....or at least give you the option to change it. It can't be that difficult for developers to add a "color revert" option. I know enough people have complained about it since releasing on other devices.
Well, enjoy all the other goodies lollipop has to offer! [emoji2]

Y'all can have all of those bright colors. I'm sticking to the dark side.

Well, that didn't take long! All of a half a day? lol
Root access is now available for Lollipop on the Galaxy S5! Woohoo! [emoji106]
How to update to Lollipop on your Verizon Galaxy …:
I didn't want to start a new thread since I'm sure our buddy DMX will be posting a "how to" video soon.
Just thought I'd share the good news for those of you who have a rooted S5 and were waiting for developers to provide us with an updated 5.0 root method . [emoji2]

Lollipop is now also running on the Note Edge. Once my Daily Driver is updated I am on it.

Is there anything other than the leaked XXU1BOA2 test build out there yet for the Note Edge? That one just popped up in the last few days. I haven't heard of any official releases.

That is the only one that I have seen. It is stable, but not for my model. Once it is ported I will use it.
 
Screw VR Gear. 5 people are going to buy that crap, there is no reason to delay the update for millions of Note 4 owners, for the 0.003% that might buy a VR Gear...
Not to hijack an S5 thread, but I agree. They announced the VR the same day they announced the Note 4. You'd think they would've kept on top of the game and the software.

The thing didn't even work on release until they pushed that small update. Push Lollipop with a HUGE warning that if you have the Gear VR, you'll want to select "Install Later" until they can push another small update with the VR fix.
 
My Note 4 settings background is white with KitKat.
I don't mind the white background, I actually like it.

First issue I've had someone have with the update is Blocking Mode was changed to Interruptions and is confusing as heck now. Anyone messed with it?
