I noticed this too and mostly I feel it is due to better CPU management. It sits at idle a lot better during music playback for example. It also spends a lot less time than normal at max CPU frequency. I feel like they looked at what the custom kernels were doing and tweaked the CPU speeds. With ART as the runtime, there is a ton of smoothness improvements as well so CPU speed isn't as needed.

Simple guide for Installing Lollipop in Nexus 5.

Hello, below is the detailed in depth step by step instructions to upgrade Nexus 5 to Lollipop.

Hope this will be helpful.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X1Ml7y25jy4

============================ Steps =================================

Detailed video of installing Lollipop in Nexus 5.

----------------------------------------*----------------------

To flash a system image:

Backup all your data before proceeding for flashing, as this process will erase

all the data.

NOTE: I am not responsible if any thing goes wrong.

1) Download the appropriate system image for your device below, then unzip it to a safe directory. say "Android".

https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images...

http://developer.android.com/preview/index.html...

2) You will need the few Android platform tools which you can get from platform-tools directory of Android SDK, or I have zipped at below URL.

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B2VylCsSQCTnQVkyRWljaFNWZE0/view?usp=sharing...

3) Download the tools zip folder, unzip it and copy all the 4 file to Android folder where you have unzipped image of nexus 5.

4) Open CMD prompt and change directory to the Android image folder.

5) Connect your device to your computer over USB.Ensure that "USB debugging" is enabled from "Developer options" in Settings.

6) To check the connectivity between laptop and Nexus 5 use the below command to restart the device from cmd prompt

adb reboot

If this command reboots the device then every thing done till now is OK.

7) Start the device in fastboot mode with any one of the following (a or b) methods:

(a) Using the adb tool: With the device powered on, execute:

adb reboot bootloader

(b) Using a key combo:

Turn the device off, then turn it on and immediately hold down the relevant key combination for your device.

For example, to put a Nexus 5 ("hammerhead") into fastboot mode, press and hold Volume Up + Volume Down + Power as the device begins booting up.

8) If necessary, unlock the device's bootloader by running:

fastboot oem unlock

The target device will show you a confirmation screen. (This erases all data on the target device.)

9) Navigate to the Android directory where system image are unzipped.

10) Execute the flash-all.bat script. This script installs the necessary bootloader, baseband firmware(s), and operating system.

Once the script finishes, your device reboots. You should now lock the bootloader for security:

11) Start the device in fastboot mode again, as described above.

Execute:

adb reboot bootloader

fastboot oem lock

Note: Locking the bootloader does not wipe any data, but when you want to flash it again, you must run fastboot oem unlock again, which will wipe the data.

Definitely agree with what you posted sjknight. My post isn't a battery complaint type inquiry as I am getting on average the same battery life as pre-Lollipop. I think it is just a new battery usage category. Just curious if anyone has not seen it on their devices at all.

[Nexus 5 General] snappycg1996:
That's very true! It's a lot more smooth and at least with the old Play Music I got maybe 1percent drain per 45 minutes. As opposed to 3-5 on KK. I'm shocked how much better ART is.

I feel the same way, my phone doesn't heat up as much doing various tasks :)

I am so loving 5.0.

It feels like my phone has been given a new lease on life. Its smoother, lasts longer, and looks so good.

And I remember thinking with KK if it ain't broke don't fix it (visually).

I tried and still get this message.. I also tried another calendar app and they just can't sync either cause that screen prevents me from it (says I'm already connected to a Gmail account)

[Nexus 5 General] x10user2011:
It's just my Google account, I didn't actually sign in within the calendar apps

Yes, but what happens if you sign out of the account? On the phone...
[Nexus 5 General] x10user2011:
Is that a solution? Cause if not I don't want to delete it as I'm gonna delete a lot of other important info :/
[Nexus 5 General] Tzfardaya:
I don't know if it's a solution.. I'm asking what happens with your calendar issue if you log out?

You're using a developer preview, you should be storing mission critical information on the phone anyways...

Ever since I've flashed ElementalX 2.0, Miscellaneous in the battery section has vanished completely. Did quite a few charge cycles. :eek:

Just to double check on that, I flashed permissive boot.img and the misc drain was back in that charge cycle itself. :eek:

PS: Loving 'Inbox by Gmail!' :D
[Nexus 5 General] Dungeon47:
Is out just not reporting, or is your performance improved?
[Nexus 5 General] vin4yak:
Performance was never an issue with Lollipop with stock / permissive boot.img. However, after flashing ElementalX, I do get better battery life out of this thing. That's [MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION] 's magic for you! :o

No idea about the Misc section though. Don't know whether it's just a coincidence or it has got to do something with the permissive kernel / ElementalX.

If someone else with some knowledge about this could shed some light, it would be good.

It's a week now that I'm on the last developer preview and I noticed something strange: every night I go to bed with my phone charging with Wi-Fi on and every morning I wake up with the 3G data on and not the wi-fi... Why? Am I missing something? Did anyone have this problem?

Oh man...

The Play Store updates itself..
[Nexus 5 General] Boonyard:
So will Google release the image files on the 3rd as well?
[Nexus 5 General] onesolo:
It's a new feature of 5.0. http://www.androidpolice.com/2014/1...-access-signal-icon-adds-a-for-no-connection/

Now when you connect to Wifi, but after a while you lost your connection it connects to 3G data... but I think this is stupid, cause it consumes more battery and consumes data, for the ones that have small data package...

Also I can't find the option to disable this... at least I always turn off Wifi and 3G data...

Why quote me? :eek:
[Nexus 5 General] Cliff666:
Hello,

I use Google's two factor authentication.

At the configuration after flashing I was not able to use a one time password to log in to my google account. It claimed to be a wrong password.

I had to remove my sim card, stick into my old phone to receive the authentication code.

Am I the only one with this problem? Haven't read anything about this on this thread. Or is nobody using two factor authentication?
[Nexus 5 General] e-Tiggy:
Afaik it does not disconnect from wifi, just reroutes the data connection to the cellular radio.
[Nexus 5 General] nomancoolboy:
I am using two step verification for quite a while ... Never had any problems with it .. Btw i use sms method for verification. .never had to use those back up codes (10 codes one time use )
[Nexus 5 General] Cliff666:
And did you type in your original gmail password or a one time password?

If you typed your original gmail password, how are you able to receive your verification sms while setting up your phone?

In KitKat I used a one time password every time I did set up my account. In Lollipop I needed to use my original gmail password.
[Nexus 5 General] joecool666:
no link it just updated it's self.i flash a stock rom and let it update. regard's build version 5.0.31 offical, p.s and google keyboard update'd you will find the keyboard on playstore hope this help's.
[Nexus 5 General] nomancoolboy:
Original gmail password .. And then it will ask me to enter the code sent to me by sms ..
[Nexus 5 General] scae:
I had this issue too - With kitkat my method is to use a one-time application password when logging in on the phone. With Lollipop I had to use my normal password then enter one of my 10 codes (which I have never previously used). I tried SMS but was not able to access to the notification bar to view the text.
[Nexus 5 General] KidCuda:
Hey everyone, I asked this in the general Android thread but didn't receive any response:

I'm looking to get a Nexus 6 on my work's account with Verizon, and I'm wondering if the new smart unlock with Lollipop will help bypass an enforced Exchange PIN? I don't mind having a PIN for security, but I have a Moto 360, and it would be nice if it would keep it unlocked temporarily.

I already have the dev preview on my Nexus 5, but I don't want to go and encrypt it for work just to try it out.
[Nexus 5 General] Hoezack:
Guess there isn't a new one. Mine is 5.0.32
[Nexus 5 General] vin4yak:
5.0.32 is the latest ^_^
[Nexus 5 General] joecool666:
well mine updated itself to 5.0.31 "offical" not apk version.regard's joe.
[Nexus 5 General] vin4yak:
May be because you're not on the latest developer's preview. I'm on 5.0.32 ever since I've flashed the latest build :rolleyes:
[Nexus 5 General] joecool666:
good point pal never thought of that . i was thinking where you on the apk version and they just updated the apk.but i will have ago with new build and see what happen's kind regard's joe.
[Nexus 5 General] ozzmanj1:
Just curious, can you elaborate? Is this developer just renaming the file to make it look like its a later/newer version of android L?
[Nexus 5 General] vin4yak:
He's kidding mate.. since he himself posted that build :silly: lol
[Nexus 5 General] ozzmanj1:
Wow... I feel dumb. I had no idea. Thanks for the clarification.
[Nexus 5 General] :
Yeah, I know that but it happens only on night, during the day I never lose Wi-Fi connection, so it's a bit weird that happens only during the night... Oh well, nobody complains about this so I guess should be something on my hand, I'll check when the stable release comes out...

Anyway, if the issue it's really releated with the new feature I hope we can turn it off somehow...

[Nexus 5 General] gverma1:
Do we really need to wipe to flash Lollipop

Just a point to ponder - when official Lollipop gets pushed from Google servers, and we do OTA update, my guess is our data will be intact after the update. If that be the case, then there should be a way to flash Lollipop preview release (or at least the production release when it is made available by Google) without wiping data.
[Nexus 5 General] onesolo:
No one said that this new feature disconnects wifi... the feature just turns data on IF you loose a Wifi connection!!!

By the way, I discovered that on the battery stats, it records that my wifi is all the time turn on, when is not... big bug

Nope.

I'll give it a try but I've been using the original charger and I've never had problems with speedy charging on 4.4.4
[Nexus 5 General] vin4yak:
I'm afraid I have to agree with x10user on this one. Charging on the stock kernel was poo. Current never crossed 1100 mAh and even if it did, it came back to 1100 within seconds. However, ever since I've flashed ElementalX, it's back to 1500-1700 range.

What is pure-white-nightness? I'm talking about official Google release which can be found @ developer.android.com

It was 5.0.32 from the beginning.

The original post, the one you responded to, was with the user going to bed with and active wifi connection and waking up with a turned off wifi, or at least thats what i think he/she tried to describe, hence my reply.

(P.s.: Just to clarify, if the cell broadband data is turned off in the settings the os not gonna turn it on even if it cannot auth through the wifi. The same thing gonna happen as if the AP would have lost power)

[Nexus 5 General] Tzfardaya:
It's sad how many people dont understand what a developers preview is...

Personally I just clone the data I need to keep to the cloud/my home server and don't bother with Tibu.... If they do decide to use Tibu, I would suggest only backing up data, not apps or settings....

And clean flashing the official rom, not dirty flashing it over the developers preview...

Exactly. I don't use it either and back up everything important to my home server.

To me using tibu is just introducing another possible problem on a clean install

[Nexus 5 General] JLishere:
Won't work yet. Live screen mirroring will be released in beta with a Google Play Services updates in "a few weeks".

Photos is now the only gallery app on L.

Aside from the 'material UI', no other changes. I actually think they removed one setting (long-press duration - can anyone confirm if it's gone?). If you notice worse predictions, try changing your auto-correction setting to 'Aggressive' (this is not a new feature, however).
