Android 5.0.1 Lollipop OTA update for Nexus 4, 5, 7, and 10 coming soon

There is good news for owners of Nexus devices as Google has recently uploaded the Android 5.0.1 Release 1 Lollipop code to AOSPA, which signals the arrival of the next Lollipop over-the-air (OTA) update for the famed Nexus line-up including Nexus 4, Nexus 5, Nexus 7 and Nexus 10.

With only a handful of Nexus devices (Nexus 7, Nexus 9 and Nexus 10) having received factory images of the latest Android 5.0.1 Lollipop update, it remains to be seen which of the Nexus devices would get the new OTA update first.

Various reports on the internet suggest that Android 5.0.1 update might be tablet-specific or limited to Nexus 7, 9 and 10.

However, we cannot rule out the possibility that other Nexus devices will also get the latest Lollipop update, especially given the handful of bugs being unearthed in Android 5.0.

For instance, several Nexus users have been perturbed with a flurry of bugs and issues in Lollipop update including unexpected battery drains, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi and cellular data connectivity issues, among other performance problems including app crashes, startup and video playback issues.

Interested users can now download factory images for Nexus 7, Nexus 9 and Nexus 10 from the links below:
