Google Epic Failure
Google was supposed to have released the Android 5.0 Lollipop factory images for all the Nexus devices back on 11/3/14. Well it’s been one week now and the factory images still haven’t been released. I have heard that there is a battery bug that made Google stop the release. Come on Google you can figure out a little battery bug in one week. The Source code or AOSP has been release and developers are already releasing there own Lollipop roms based on AOSP which is really awesome. One of the reasons everybody buys a Nexus devices is to get the new Android version first, before everyone else. There have already been leaks of android 5.0 on the Moto X and LG G3 but for the Nexus line up, NOTHING. Google did release the factory firmware for the new Nexus 9 and Nexus player but not the Nexus 6 yet. Speaking of the Nexus 6 what a failure the preorder process was, the device went out of stock instantly and a week later is still out of stock. If you missed the 3 minute release from Gogole Play and the Motorola 1 hour release then you are out of luck at this time. GOOGLES EPIC FAILURE
ON THAT NOTE GOOGLE GIVE ME MY FACTORY IMAGES NOW LOL
When the factory images / Firmware are released you will be able to get them HERE
Android 5.0 Lollipop Factory Images Delayed
Well in Googles defense, Nexus 5 users like myself have already ran stock Lollipop enough to get tired of it, thanks to developer previews. There are also at least 3 pure AOSP Lollipop builds available for the N5. The only difference is that some of these builds do not contain new L binaries. Instead they contain the binaries released with the developer preview. I’ll patiently wait, but I want my OTA now. We should ALWAYS receive OTAs before any OEM. Always.
I know Gary 🙂 dont wreck my fun LOL
