Doubt it will be that buggy. My problem with Lollipop is what Google did with Silent Mode and the Notifications, I have actually just flashed back to 4.4.4 on my Note 4, I was so annoyed with the new setup today, Google 'fixed' something that didn't need any fixing, never thought I could be so annoyed with an update until these last two days, it feels so good to be back on KK, going to wait for 5.0.2 or 5.1, which ever comes.

What's the point?? 5.0.1 and 5.1 are just bug fixes so your still have the same problems * +

Samsung have apparently recently applied a fix in the GS5 for the Silent mode issue, so the Note should get it soon enough. * +

I love that you can say to google now turn on WiFi and it does it, or turn off Bluetooth etc * +

Thats possible with S Voice on KitKat. WRT Silent in 5.0 is why should I then have to go into Settings and turn vibrate off? In KitKat you simply flip to Silent and its all done, 5.0 is a stepback in that regard. The 5.0 notifications also don't play nice with WhatsApp Group Chat, I have multiple group chats one with family, two with close friends and old friends and another with work colleagues, and at any given time they are active, and even though I turned Vibrate for Groups off in WhatsApp, the 5.0 Notifications setup makes the phone vibrate, you can just imagine how annoying that is while at work, in a meeting or while driving, at the same time I want the phone to vibrate when I get a call or a WhatsApp from a single contact, this all works perfectly in KitKat, but on 5.0 there's a clash. They should have just left Silent there, it worked exactly the way I wanted, they broke something that didn't need any fixing whatsoever. * +

Back on Lollipop after finding out and trying the SilentMode app, I'm quite happy now as the rest of the update is fantastic, one thing I realised when I went back to KitKat is how much more smooth and snappy the Note 4 is on Lollipop, even the finger print scanner is way faster, so finally thoroughly enjoying 5.0.1 on it. *
