Which version of android 5 Lollipop is it thats playing up?

Is it 5.0.0 5.0.1 5.0.2 or what?

I have just updated a friends Motorola Moto G 1st Generation (2013) to Android 5.0.2.

Im not sure if there any bugs in this version as my friend has not used it yet as the update was only today.

Maybe those who have issues with this update on the samsung S4 and S5 could advise which Version of Android Lollipop and what faults they are getting.

My friend has Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini and so far no sign of any update from Android 4.4.2 to any other version of Android.

    This is what happens when someone curses with true broken heart ! Sammy drowned into S6 waves and forgot stability and timely updates for existing Note 4 and S5 buyers. Money got from one product will be invested in servicing other older products which are flooded with bugs introduced by you. Learn the lesson sammy dont forget your loyal customers.

        AnonD-4697, 11 Mar 2015That's what I'm talking about about "not so nice"... moreSamsung was reasonably fast with lollipop update and face few issues for the galaxy s5. Whats your point here ? Every software update in any eco system has its share of bugs which are sorted out over time. At least samsung does not ridiculously respond as the fruit vendor does.

        Here is what the fruit vendor said when there was a signal problem with the fruit product :

        " Gripping any mobile phone will result in some attenuation of its antenna performance, with certain places being worse than others depending on the placement of the antennas. This is a fact of life for every wireless phone. If you ever experience this on your iPhone 4, avoid gripping it in the lower left corner in a way that covers both sides of the black strip in the metal band, or simply use one of many available cases. "

        So basically they said you are holding your phone the wrong way. Can it get any more ridiculous then that. Even the most die hard fruit fan will admit it.

          So Galaxy S5 still doesn't have 5.0 but the older Nexus 5 has already 5.1...

                      Most of them are happening on my girlfriend's Brazilian s5 and also on my note4. Contacts app keep crashing even on fresh restart, phone gets very hot, battery drain is strange, some apps not working properly, graphical issues on some games, random game crash just to name a few.
