Thanks - got that

And yes, the X makes it go away - by turning it off smile (Which isn't what I want smile )
Depending on how locked down your phone is you can disable the power notification by going to your setup, Apps, Power, Disable Notifications. Unfortunately for me I have this option greyed out and therefore I cannot turn it off.

I do too - But having looked around online, I think that's common.

Anyone else got juddery transition from Apps to Home screen? Not as smooth as it used to be.

Edit: was the addition of the power widget. The old one isn't on the phone any more (I used it loads) and the alternative isn't as good.

What I do have, and had on 4.4, was my messages would always take a few moments to load up - usually saying something like "no messages found"

Hmm, I am experiencing wifi dropouts - I can see it's a common thing, but is it just me?

Is there a way to roll back? I really don't like this, the closing apps window is st, I don't like swiping to the right. The pull down menu from the top looks st too. Grrr.. was so happy with it before all this nonsense.

Well I like the UI tweeks, whole thing seems to run smoother and I have so far not had a single issue with it.

Nothing is really that different other than the UI as far as I can see!

Same here, the only changes are the material design and slight different menu's

Only issue I have come across so far is the Barclays app doesn't work with 5.0+

Reduced battery life it seems now too. By this stage every day my phone is at around 85% but it's at 71% now and I've done nothing different.

Bit of a fk up!

Maybe it's turned something on in settings?

I upgraded last night and no real dramas. Only effective change is the lock screen looks a bit different and the multi app page now scrolls vertically in a swooshy way.

Ok no i get that, but in terms of physical look and feel, there is no real difference just UI tweeks!

I did switch my run time to Dalivk when on KitKat but by battery drained out in about 8 hours so I switched back. Looks like alot of people are having the same issue with Lolipop owing to the runtime. I am at 75% battery having been running from it for just shy of 6 hours. Not what it was before!

Yeh a little bit annoying.

I'm loving Lollipop apart from that, Using Google Now launcher and Google keyboard aswell.
