Over the weekend Verizon started to roll out the update to Android Lollipop for the Samsung Galaxy S 5. This was welcome news to owners of the device who thought they were getting it back in February. However, after starting the process, Verizon pulled the update with no reason given, putting owners of the Galaxy S 5 back into waiting mode. Since resuming the update process, it appears Verizon has updated the update yet again based on changes to the build number.
The original update that started rolling out in February was G900VVRU1BNLC, which was replaced over this past weekend with G900VVRU1BOA4. A check of the most recent update announcement shows Verizon has now updated the build number to G900VVRU1BOC4. Given the minor change in the number, it seems likely that Verizon discovered some very small item that needed to be addressed once the update started hitting end users’ devices.
Along with the normal Lollipop updates, Verizon indicates the update includes bolder colors and more fluid animations as part of their TouchWiz interface and their specific apps now incorporate Material Design guidelines. Verizon also included specific updates to the Interruptions feature to help users get around some of the sound issues present in the initial release of Lollipop.
