This misc thing is completely wrecking me. I have to throw my charger in my bag on longer days now - never had this large an issue with KitKat unless the mm-qcamera-daemon came up, rare as that was. Problem will probably be obliterated by final. Or I pray it is, anyway, for the sake of my sanity.

There's a app called DelayedLock that does unlocking when connected to a trusted WiFi network but yeah, would have liked to see the functionality implemented in Lollipop.

I'm now thinking that I probably should've posted this here rather than in the Nexus' thread, but oh well.
I beg you all pardon.

And how much do you think the battery life will improve by? At the end of the day, it's still a 2300 mAh battery. Other phones will also increase as well.

The only thing I know is that, with a mere first developer preview, my Nexus 5 had suddenly got muuuch better.
And that was June.
Sure, a 2300mAh won't make any miracles, but it should bring almost everyone to the end of the day without much trouble.

How many hours until its released?
"In coming weeks." We don't know hours. The N7 and N10, wifi versions of 2012/2013, are scheduled to get it tomorrow.
When the official updates comes out, just do the same thing you did for the preview. Flash the images they put up. You can't update from the preview -> official.
Yes however in a phased approach. Sucks but its what we get.

Will that wipe data? I'm holding off on starting a game I've just bought because I don't want to have to start over when the official 5.0 drops for my N7.
Yeah, it will.

Thanks. Hopefully it drops tomorrow like everyone is saying.

I got my Zerolemon 3500mAh battery case about a week ago. It's amazing and does exactly what I want it to do. Even if 5.0 does great things for battery life on Mt N5, I am glad I got this thing. It's non intrusive and adds almost the right amount of weight to make the phone feel nice. Even comes with a built in screen protector that works great even with a protector already installed on this phone.
Nope. Uk. Nexus 7 2nd gen.
its still early in california man

Has this rolled out yet or should I just assume the Nov 3 date was wishful thinking (N7 2013 here)?
No public factory image on Google's site, so I'm guessing it's just not happening on time.
It started rolling out to lucky Nexus 9 owners.
2 screen protectors? Dude...
Didn't that ship with 5.0?

I have one on and the battery case comes with another on. It works very no intrusive.

Just got the order confirmation on my Xperia Z3 tablet compact. Can't wait, should have it by Saturday.
Hopefully I won't have to wait too long for the 5.0 update.

Early 2015, bud.
I think that was the "joke" of the 5.0 is rolling out starting 11/3 announcement

Ask me about the GAF Notebook
A battery draining WiFi bug could be whats holding up the Android 5.0 Lollipop rollout

Every. Single. Time.
Would you rather they just release it like iOS 8.0.1?

My S4 got an update yesterday via at&t and I was happy thinking it was 5.0. Lo and behold nothing changed at all... I need to keep myself informed with Android news more :*(.
Good that they're fixing bugs like that. I love the battery life on my Moto G on 4.4.4. It's a vast improvement over my old Lumia 920's. That thing died at least once a day, I haven't even had my Moto die on me at all and I'm using it more than the Lumia. I'd be devastated if my battery life went down the drain.
Samsung won't release 5.0 till well into 2015. Like June at the earliest I'm guessing.

Yeah that's what I've read as most likely to be true. At least it's coming at all I guess.

Youuuuu clearly don't understand what went wrong with 8.0.1.
lol don't get your panties in a bunch... I was using it as an example of releasing something to early.
Do you have a google alert set for the mention of anything apple related?
Apple alert
Ooh that's not good. Hope they fix it soon. I need my lollipop.
Yeah. The MISC draining thing was never a myth. More than 50% of my battery is eaten up by it, even when I barely touch the phone.
I wonder if I turn off wifi and just use the LTE will I get better battery life?
It's like something out of bizarro world.
