Lollipop!.... when?
Jim1348:
I might have to try that, too. I did the update and mine is also sluggish. I mainly use it to watch TV through DISH Anywhere and Sling. They are slow to start up and often stop working in the middle of a session.
Update: I did do this earlier today and it is quite an improvement. I should have done this sooner!
NSILMike:
Now I hear 5.1.1 has been spotted on Nexus 7, 2013.
Tronmech:
Have 5.1.1 on my 2012 Nexus 7. Awful. LollyLag.
Bob_Carmody:
I've noticed that each new update to my 2012 nexus make it a bit faster. 5.1.1 seems actually a little worse that 5.1.
Your mileage may vary.
I agree that this device NEVER should have gotten lollipop. Kitkat ran very smoothly.
Now I get lots of Application not responding windows.

Frequent crashing and freezing. Eventually reverted to 4.4.4 and much relieved. That took me some time issuing with fresh and lost a lot of info in process... Couldn't use Titanium back up as I wasn't rooted. After this experience I am reluctant to upgrade until a lot of users say 5.0.2 is stable and worthwhile.

I had the same problem when my Nexus 2012 went to 5.0.2. Clearing out the cache didn't seem to help. I finally did a factory reset :o and my Nexus is running pretty good. There are still some problems however. I used to have the WiFi turn off when asleep but found out that caused a lot of problems when the Nexus woke up. I now leave the WiFi on all the time (default) and find that battery life isn't a problem. I charge the Nexus in the morning for about three hours and it will last me all day long. I usually run it down to about 20%.
There are other problems with occasional hang ups especially with the Chrome browser and Google search. Also occasional hangups with Gmail. I am hoping that 5.1 will fix these problems. ;D
