Google has just run into a big stumbling block with the Android 5.0
Lollipop update. According to reports, the OTA updates for the Nexus
devices have been delayed because of a WiFi bug in Android 5.0 that is
draining the battery of the devices.
Android 5.0 Lollipop had started rolling out to devices some days ago,
but it seems that the updates have been stopped because of this issue.
The Nexus 4, Nexus 5, Nexus 7 (2012 and 2013) and Nexus 10 will be the
first devices to get the update. Google has itself confirmed the bug on
its Bug Tracker page as well.
Users ran into the issue on the Nexus 5 first and the Bug Tracker page
is filled with queries about the same. That said, it's not yet
confirmed whether the WiFi tracking bug is the cause for the battery
drain, but both the bug and the issue exist in Lollipop.
Google had said in its I/O conference back in June that the Lollipop
update would bring better battery life to Android smartphones, along
with the battery saver feature. Many smartphone makers have already
confirmed the update on their various devices, but the discovery of this
bug may delay their plans as well.....
