Calling all Nexus 7 owners.

Has your tablet updated to the Lollipop operating system yet?

 

[Diggs]

No, but the Diglet's has even though we bought them at the same time. As @User suggests, it's always with a little trepidation that I update

 

[phil_hg_uk]

No but then I havent checked for updates and as @User says wait, also make sure any apps you have will run under the new version before you update.

My phone (Nexus 5) updated last week and runs fine.No crashes or freezes yet.

 

[Leedsbusdriver]

Looks like Google are releasing the update in batches then.Sort of glad i haven't got the update yet going by the replies on here.

Not yet, thankfully..

The only thing i don't like now is that you are now forced to use Hangouts for SMS.Yes i know there are third party SMS apps,but haven't found one i like yet.

My 2012 Nexus 7 has been updated and sometimes runs slow. Has anyone had a 2013 Nexus 7 update yet?

 

[ianrauk]

Think I'll stick to Kitkat for now

My 2012 lags occasionally esp just after start-up but seems okay after
that.

Same here. I'm interested to find out if any 2013 Nexus 7s have any problems or whether it's just the 2012s. The 2012s are lower specced so it would make sense if it only affected the 2012 model.

Reddit has a post on how to eliminate the lag without going through the factory reset the Google advises. I cannot post the link as Reddit is having one of its moments...
It's all about the cache

N7 2012 more prone to lag (irrespective of lollipop or kitkat) because of the memory it used, 2013 doesn't suffer the same (allegedly).

Lollipop runs like a dream on the N5. I've left my N7 (2012) on kitkat for now.

I had to restore my NEXUS7 2013 to factory settings after installing Lollipop, because it got into a contiuous loop of shutting down !!

Never mind, it's good to have a system restore every now and again. At least the play back issues with the BBC I Player have been resolved.

I've got Lollipop on my Nexus 10, no lag apparent.
