Yeah but that mutes alarms as well which is very annoying when I want to put my phone on silent at night (but still have an alarm). I've found an app that brings back silent mode via the volume buttons but it seems a retarded omission in Lollipop .

Thanks anyway.

Just put the phone in airplane mode, job done. If you want some notifications (for emergencies), just learn how to use the priority mode.

I don't see why they couldn't have just left silent mode via the volume keys, was so convenient

.

Still having no luck with network signal even though I've gone back to Cyanogenmod 11S

update to lollipop hasn't been great... can no longer get work emails on my phone as it's an exchange account, tried the gmail app and it needs a certificate, so seeing if the it guy can reformat the one we have and install it on the phone - what a load of faff!

also - anyone been able to get around the virgin tv restrictions?! load of nonsense - and the bbc iplayer thing too...

My battery life has gone from great to shocking now on lollipop.

I thought CM12 comes with Boxer that supports exchange accounts?

If not get Nine, been using that for ages. It's an awesome mail app and works with exchange.

Battery life seems to be way worse on CM12 OS, especially standby battery loss which seems to be awful now, losing 20% + overnight now.

Doesn't seem like anyone has anything good to say about CM12..

Glad I didn't (and won't) bother upgrading.

I'm liking it so far to be honest, haven't run in to many/any bugs and it looks very nice

Ditto - haven't changed my usage, but battery is plummeting.

The iPlayer bug is annoying too, in that iPlayer is unwatchable.

I occasionally get the app drawer bug - where you hit the app drawer button, but only the menu bar section of the screen is updated to display the bottom part of the app drawer, and the rest of the screen stays on your home wallpaper. You then have to scroll/move the screen, and it updates to display the app drawer.

Might flash back to CM11 I think.

Same here, the only real issue I have is that Whatsapp web is a bit flakes on works wifi network....

Battery is fine on idle, but seems to drain faster when the screens on than 11S in my experience.

If you haven't done it yet, use the privacy guard to disable 'waking' and 'keep awake' for Google Play Services.

Isn't that a Trebuchet launcher issue? Nova is fine here.

Probably - I've not go around to reinstalling Nova yet - think I'd better though.

How's that done?

I can't see any particular app using lots of battery, just seems to be lots of them using more than normal.

ShivP · 6 May 2015 at 21:39

I think the battery drain is a general Lolipop issue, not a OPO issue - may be wrong though

It is but the above helps by all accounts, mind you I've had them disabled since around October so I can't be 100% sure how much of a difference it is one Lolipop/COS12.

Silly Goose On The Loose · 6 May 2015 at 22:01

Lollipop just seems like such a half-baked update. I may dislike iOS but Apple seem to test their updates before releasing them...

Search for iOS 8.0 bugs.

lol, yeah right, didn't one of the last iOS updates brick some devices or something!?

Regarding your work emails try K-9 Mail. I use it now instead of the default apps for work email and it's pretty good.

As for Virgin & BBC... no idea

I'm not trying to turn this into an Android flamewar. I just know the iPhone doesn't have awful battery life after an update.
