Title: Can I Go Back To Android OS 4.4.2?
Post by: Jim1348 on May 24, 2015, 07:43:52 AM

I have not had great luck with the Lollipop OS.  Can I go back to 4.4.2?  If so, how do I do it and where do I start?

Mine shows Android version 5.1.  When I check for system updates is states "Your system is up to date."  So, it looks like 5.1.1 is an update from 5.1.  How can I go from 5.1 to 5.1.1?

I upgraded both my Nexus 4 and Nexus 7 to Android 5.1.1 last night.  I will see if there are improvements.

Update:  As on 05-30-2015, Android 5.1.1 performs better for me than 5.1 did on the apps that I use.
