WTF is wrong with T-mobile? How did Verizon get the OTA out first? According to T-Mobile's website their version is still in development and hasn't even started testing. =(
Since the S5, Verizon has pushed out the latest OTA before any other carrier. (It's a beautiful thing!)

Be careful if you do the fdr. Mine messed up during the first 2 & I had to do it a third time to get it to install my apps. The other 2 times tweaked out while I was trying to deselect apps.

I'll definitely be doing a FDR. Just have to get some time where I can be without the phone for a short while. I never have it automatically install apps, so hopefully I won't run into that issue.

That's really only been with the S5. I was hoping it would continue with the Note 4, but the Sprint and AT&T variants had Lollipop updates before Verizon's did.

Saved me so much work after I decided to let it just install everything I already had installed. It syncs what's on your device if you selected that when you set it up. It'll install all the apps you had or you can deselect some from the list, but like I said, deselecting didn't pan out for me.

I've noticed that my 4glte is on while I'm using wifi. It used to be greyed out while using wifi. Any fix or is this the new normal?

There is a setting for download booster make sure that is off. That turns 4g and wifi on at same time. Some are reporting that getting turned on by itself


As for me I am LOVING this update. ALL the new options for notifications are superb. The new way to drag down all apps for multi tasking is awesome. My phone seems MUCH snappier now then it ever has.

I am going to hold off a few days and see about battery life before I FDR

No. I guess it is the new normal with lollipop.
If the arrows aren't gray, you're using lte too.

Here's mine:

Download booster is off. Is your 4glte on or greyed while on wifi?
