Bell
Mobility has announced
that all the Samsung Galaxy S5 owners on their network will receive today the
official Android 5.0 Lollipop OTA Update. If you’re one of them, then keep a
close eye on your smartphone and confirm the upgrade process right as the Lollipop
notification appears in order to get all the new firmware files installed
successfully.
The Android
5.0 Lollipop comes with tons of visual changes such as the Material Design UI,
and the new more bloatware-free TouchWiz. Besides all the visual changes you
will also be getting some software improvements that will finally offer all
Galaxy S5 users the possibility of running a better Android environment.
Some of the
most important new features added by Samsung and Bell through Android 5.0
Lollipop are as following: intelligent notifications ranking, Priority Mode, a
much more colorful and vibrant interface due to Material Design environment,
lock screen notifications control, new native Battery Power Saving mode,
improved Security, Device Sharing, new Quick Settings toggles, better Wi-Fi
connectivity, BLE peripheral mode, Android RunTime (ART) fully integrated that
has replaced Dalvik, improved Google Now, Settings search support, more
languages supported, and multiple other great new things.
Bell is rolling
out Android 5.0 Lollipop update via OTA (over-the-air) and through Samsung KIES
software for all the Samsung Galaxy S5 users on their network. Note that the
new update has the firmware version set to G900W8VLU1BOB3 and it will arrive
for all Galaxy S5 devices that are currently running stock Android 4.4.x
KitKat. If your device has suffered any modifications to its software, then the
official update will not be rolled out for it and you will have to use other
methods in order to install official Lollipop firmware on it.
Android 5.0
Lollipop is rolling out for Bell Samsung Galaxy S5 in phases, which means that
not all users are going to get the new firmware at the same time. Don’t worry
if the Lollipop update notification doesn’t arrive today for your device, it
will most probably arrive in the following days. Tell us in comments if you’ve
received the new Android 5.0 Lollipop G900W8VLU1BOB3 Update and, if you
did, then feel free to let others know how your Bell Galaxy S5 under Lollipop
feel is after a few hours of testing.
