It changes color like GPE

---------- Post added at 07:19 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:12 AM ----------

I find it to be better than I expected, close enough to be usable. Not a lot of the material animations though, in fact you can see a huge difference when you are it the smartlock settings, the ripple effect when you chose an option, the sliders, the multiple animations on the notification screen. Definitely not huge but noticeable.

I do like the better sound and camera of Sense, having a different lockscreen wallpaper is nice as well, changing the font, definitely some nice things about Sense that I miss on GPE.

Oh and the dialer, damn the GPE dialer is sweet.
[One (M8) General] petalyaa:
Yeah, same here. Better than others lollipop release. Play around with my friend's note 3 with leak touchwiz lollipop, all i can say is sense is way cooler than it. Although changes might not be much in sense. As for me, lollipop notification is the main feature i like in this release. ;)
[One (M8) General] Allesa:
Cant find this discussed before, can we blacklist notifications from showing on lockscreen? I dont mean disabling it altogether on notification and status bar, only on lockscreen.

Especially those cant be dismissed.
[One (M8) General] Electronic Punk:
Go into setitngs, app and turn off notifications

[One (M8) General] Allesa:
That turns off notification altogether for that app. I only want it to be disabled from showing on lockscreen.

In my case, I want my GSAM persistent notification to still show on notification shade and status bar, but i dont want it to show on lockscreen.

I remember on nexus 5 lollipop there was an option to blacklist app notifs from showing on lockscreen only. Or maybe that was a feature on the custom rom i used.. :confused:
[One (M8) General] scifan:
My observances about Sense on Lollipop...

I installed over a Sense 4.4.4 load - initial boot and optimizing applications took ~ 15-20 minutes... because of how I installed, I had to flash the radio separately... wifi connectivity before installing the new radio was "sluggish".

HTC apparently chose not to move up to the new quick config menu... not sure if I like staying with old vs new... but Meh

Bluetooth connectivity seems pretty stable to my Car stereo... (~ half an hour without significant drops, though Pandora stopped playing 2 times... call it going paused - hitting pause and play fixed it both times)...

The car deck will remote-control/launch pandora - Pandora launched after the phone was unlocked and it was REALLY fast... MUCH faster than previously though I found it interesting that it didn't show in the notification bar, nor on the lock screen - this is different behavior than GPE 5.0.1 displayed...

At this point, I'm fairly happy with it... need to see about battery life...
[One (M8) General] ponts:
Yes I converted my Unlocked Edition M8 to GPE now I'm on HTC Dev Lollipop.
[One (M8) General] GohanBurner:
This has probably already been asked/mentioned numerous times in this thread, but I just want to know...how many of us are actually going to make the switch to Lollipop given all of its shortcomings?

The two major things that are bugging me right now is the lack of silent mode and the fact that the dialer cannot be force-rotated to landscape like the other dialers of the past without a force close. My phone is my main sorce for entertainment whilst in my car and it's quite bothersome to have to either tilt my head to use the dialer or remove it from the holder completely just for a phone call. Hopefully that'll be fixed in future builds.

To me it seems that Lollipop was purposely built to stimulate the development community. Most of all the things users do not like will eventually be fixed by developers. What do you guys think about that?
[One (M8) General] Captain_Throwback:
I think you may be confusing the GPE Lollipop release and the Sense version. The Sense version has a silent mode, and the Dialer can be force-rotated, the same as previously (the Dialer hasn't changed from KitKat).

So I'm not sure what you're complaining about?
[One (M8) General] GohanBurner:
I am talking about AOSP, yes. I never really cared much for Sense. The dialer will rotate to landscape mode, but as soon as you try to place a call it will force close. The part of the dialer that displays the contact information once your call is placed will force close unless its in portrait mode. I'm hoping its just a early bug, but who knows.

Wi-Fi notifications go crazy. I was near another open Wi-Fi and no matter how many times I hit that stupid card to cancel it kept coming back. And, those damn cards all over the place are the most ANNOYING thing I have ever see. It truly is enough to RUU back to 4.4 for me. I HATE these freaking cards. So far I think I have been able to stop them from displaying in the middle of my lock screen, but haven't killed them from the pull down yet. I just want to see normal notifications again!

That's odd. Must be specific to that app. I for example was sick of Android Wear's notification (from Google Play Services) showing on my lock screen as well. This is what I did to achieve this. I'd suggest sending a request to the developer to enable this option.

Thanks mate! I got it, that option wasn´t showing because I didn't had my device locked (it had only the keyguard).

If you are ever thinking you might need to go S-off, do it as soon as you can. Every OTA is a gamble that you might not ever get it.

[One (M8) General] tameracingdriver:
I've just put the Sense 5.01 developer edition on my phone. I've previously run it with GPE (KK+LP) and KK Sense.

Can't comment on battery life just yet, but it brings a few welcome upgrades for me.

+ Trusted place + face

+ Card notifications (on lock screen)

+ Search in settings

+ Still contains useful Sense features

+ Normal Silent Mode

+ Improved animations

+ Navigation bar now changes colour on material design app

- Dialer still ugly

- Toggles look a bit KitKat'ish

- Occasionally, the change from Lollipop style UI to Sense style is quite jarring and makes it look unfinished.

- No flash light in the toggles (GPE has one).

Overall though, I like it. I've stuck Nova Launcher on it, a new icon set, Simpler dialer, Google Messenger, Quickpic, Today Calendar and Swiftkey + Poweramp with a material design skin and I've got a very Nexus like experience 90% of the time, and without the downsides that being GPE had (mainly the godawful camera IMO). Time will tell if it was a good update, but so far it looks good!
[One (M8) General] Alex-V:

[One (M8) General] tameracingdriver:

[One (M8) General] BerndM14:
4.16.1540.8 <Developer Edition Lollipop.

x.xx.401.x < International WWE.

Anyways, it seems to have "fixed" itself, I don't know what the problem was. I think maybe they released this update a bit too soon, 90days wasn't even enough for them to iron out all the bugs, it's still as buggy as hell.

Guest mode? Where's that?

Floating notifications for calls? Not for us.

Not even then hidden game (Flap Droid) is available for us.

Battery? They spoke about a new improved method for saving battery life when Google showcased this during I/O I'm yet to see any improvement. KitKat 4.4.4 I could at least get 4hours SoT with games running(Three different games) now I barely get 1.5Hours with 1 game running.

Buggy UI experience at times, lagging, Play Store has missing keyboard(At least once now for me), Messages doesn't always get sent through Hangouts.

Nah, they messed up and rather decided to release it within their promise period(90Days) instead of straightening this out and give us an improved experience(In comparison with KitKat 4.4.4).

Hopefully they'll release some patches to fix this nonsense and a total overhaul with Sense 7 which we'll probably only get in April/May. :rolleyes:

Still like it though, it's great but maybe too soon.
