So I have the 703L and the update is there but I am reluctant to upgrade to 6.0 because I heard a couple of people saying it was bad for battery and few other things.
Do you guys think I should hang onto the Android 5.0 or go ahead and upgrade??
Appreciate your opinions!
I reverted back to 5, since 6 was too buggy for me and the battery drain was definitely heavier than on 5. But some people here say, they have a longer battery life on 6, so you can't be sure. If you're satisfied with 5, then don't update, because reverting back to 5 from 6 is a pain.
I get with Android 6 about 7-10 hours SoT, dont have any bugs and Problems so far.
And a rollback is done on a few minutes with an open bootloader.

Hello,
I have just bought this phone and I am curious how much I have to wait until I get the 5.0 update request. Now I am using 4.4.4
Thank you.
Well mine is about week or two old now. And im also on 4..4.4 Im not sure what's the reason wh'y its not updating. Seems like everyone with new nexus 5 have this problem. We just have to wait i guess.
If nothing will change i will probably unlock bootloader next year and update it manually. Then again looks like there are huge battery life problems on lollipop. It might be better to stay on 4.4.4
Same case here. I bought a new Nexus on the 13th of December. After turning on the phone for the first time, I received a couple of OTA updates until 4.4.4. But I haven't received yet the lollipop OTA update request.
Finally I decided to manually load the OTA by following the tutorial here:
http://www.talkandroid.com/guides/b...on-your-nexus-device-download-links-included/
After my phone was manually updated to 5.0, I automatically received the OTA for 5.0.1

Same here, bought my nexus 5 two weeks ago. My nexus 4 already running 5.0.1 but the nexus 5 still 4.4.4. Maybe it's for the better given the nexus 5 lollipop issues. Probably jump straight to 5.0.2
Hi I have purchased an Lg G4 in the last 5 months. The day I got it from AT&T I updated to android 6.0 [Marshmallow]. My battery life has gone to crap ever since, I have Factory reset my phone 3 times and 2 out of the 3 times I have reinstalled my apps very slowly and carefully.
Here is my phone info:
Model Number-LG-H810
Android security patch level-2016-01-01
Build number-MRA58K
Kernel Version-3.10.84
Software version-H81020n
Or is there a way I can downgrade from 6.0 to 5.1.1?

This thread is about six weeks old already, but I thought I'd respond, since I'm in the same spot, looking to rollback from h81020n to 5.x. There is a thread in this forum with instructions about how to do it.

Ok thanks
So after 2-3 miss leading threads here I would really like for anyone to clear out if verizon note that can be fully rooted and rooted enough to freeze apps
Because there is several threads about rooting but many people say is fake
Also is it better to update note 5 on Verizon to android 7.0 or keep it on android 6
Battery drain seems a bit high
Thanks if anyone helps

Verizon Note 5 cannot be rooted yet! Not even tether root! I downgraded back from Nougat to MM 6 because Nougat was giving me only 4 hours at most of screen on time and on MM 6 I get 6 to 8 hours.. If you need something to disable apps use Package Disabler from the Play Store it also needs PDP engine from the Play Store too in order to work.
Thanks a lot for quick response
Is that app on plastered better than native android disable app feature in application management?
Also if I decide to upgrade to android 7 should I do it over the air or with Odin for easier going back to mm just in case
Thanks for all help

How can I downgrade to MM from Nougat? Every time I I try to flash a MM official fw with odin it fails. I assume the bootloader is blocking the down rev?

Wow, that worked! Thanks
Now I need to bypass frp. It's a company phone I was given and the old employee is gone but it's still asking for his google account. I've tried so many methods are there any left that work for this version of MM?
I am using an FRD-L09 with EMUI 5.0. Current version is B385. I am experiencing serious battery drain issue. I hardly get 4hrs SOT. I didn't even got a chance to work it out on Android 6 as i got nougat update in the day i bought the phone.Any solution to this other than rollback?
If you want to try.....do a factory reset from recovery but if you are unsatisfied of battery life you could use rollback package (transition package) to downgrade, you will find theese files on honor site in firmware section, with instructions inside the zip files

Its best not to upgrade to emui5. I have done enough analysis and found many people regretting the upgrade than enjoying the new features. I'm yet to upgrade though I got the update out of the box.
Follow this link to rollback FRD-L09 to Marshmallow.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8/how-to/problem-frd-l09-t3596449
If a factory reset didn't work, try an update (if available)
If none of the above worked, you stunt have nothing to do but to rollback

Use the guide provided by rommco , and clean the apps in lockscreen clean up and it won't satisfy , better to rollback to emui4.1 , it was good .

Can be downgraded, but I suggest you to wait some days before doing that, sometimes on nougat takes a while till battery autonomy gets better
The only way to downgrade from nougat to marshmallow is to flash BL+AP+CSC+CP files via latest version of Odin.

What actually drains your battery..?
Take a look... Maybe it better to do a factory reset and see if it helps... Phone works better with 7.0...
Anyway, if you wanna downgrade to 6.0.1, download latest 6.0.1 firmware for a region you are currently running, and flash it with odin...
