» How to Fix Android 5.0.1 Installation Problems

One of the more annoying Android 5.0.1 Lollipop issues that’s popped up for Nexus users pertains to the installation process itself. Users are reporting that the update’s installation process stops mid-download and that the update cannot be installed. We’re also hearing about an issue where the Android 5.0.1 update pops up and then disappears. While we don’t have a cure all, we’ve discovered a few possible fixes for these problems.

A majority of the people experiencing installation issues seem to be people that have rooted, unlocked the bootloader and or installed a custom ROM. The first thing you’ll want to do is check in with your development community. In our experience, killing root, locking up the bootloader and returning to a stock version of the previous update will allow for the installation process to proceed. It’s a tedious process but it might be the only way to get the OTA going.

If you believe that your installation process has been corrupted in any way, try clearing your cache partition. To do this, you’ll need to follow these basic steps that outline the process :



  • Press and hold Power and Volume Down buttons simultaneously until you see something other than Google on the screen.
  • You should see a large arrow at the top of the screen.
  • Tap Volume Down repeatedly until you see Recovery in the arrow.  Then tap the Power button
  • You should see an android on his back, chest open with a red triangle and exclamation mark.
  • While holding Power button tap Volume Up once then release Power.
  • You should now see a list of items at top of screen.
  • Tap Volume Down until the item to erase or wipe the cache partition is highlighted.  Then tap Power button to initiate.
  • Status messages will appear at the bottom of the screen.  Be patient – it can take 10-15 minutes to complete.  When done restart the Nexus.
  • If returning to stock Android 4.4.4 KitKat and trying again doesn’t work. If clearing the cache partition doesn’t work. Well, then you probably want to factory reset the device. Just remember to back up all of your precious files before performing a wipe.

» How to Fix Android 5.0.1 Battery Life Problems

Battery drain is one of the issues that always plagues Nexus users after Android updates. We haven’t seen a ton of complaints about Android 5.0.1 battery life problems but Android 5.0.1 is still limited to a few devices so we expect that to change in the days ahead. Fortunately, there are a few things Nexus users can do to try and eliminate abnormal battery drain if it emerges after the Android 5.0.1 upgrade.

Android updates aren’t supposed to cause battery drain issues and often times, the issues are caused by third-party applications that are behaving badly. So, first off, you’ll want to keep an eye on the apps and services taking up your precious battery life. You’ll be able to find that data in the Battery section of Settings. The Android operating system will breakdown the services sucking up your precious battery life.

You might also want to try rebooting your phone or tablet. It’s an extremely quick process but this will often return things to normal because the reboot will clear the cache and kill off services that might be eating away at your precious battery life.

» How to Fix Android 5.0.1 Wi-Fi Issues


Wi-Fi issues are causing problems for Android 5.0.1 users and many of them are looking for potential fixes. That’s not too surprising given that the problems range from slow connections to instability. Wi-Fi issues are common after Android update and through the years, we’ve been able to dig up a few potential fixes.

First, you’ll want to reboot the phone or tablet. You’ll also want to try rebooting your router if you haven’t unplugged it in awhile. We recommend unplugging the router for a good 30 seconds and then plugging it back in. You can do the same for your modem as well. If those simple fixes do not work, it’s time to head into the Nexus device’s settings.

There, you’ll want to force your device to forget your Wi-Fi network. Simply press down on the desired network and a white menu will pop up. At the top, you’ll see an option that says Forget network. Select that and then reenter your password to connect again. If that doesn’t work, try changing the frequency. To do that, click the vertical dots in the top right corner to bring up the Advanced menu. Go to Wi-Fi frequency band and play around with the settings. It should be set to Automatic by default.

How to Fix Android 5.0.1 Bluetooth Problems
Bluetooth continues to be problematic for Nexus users after the arrival of Android 5.0.1. Bluetooth is always a pain point after major Android updates so the news doesn’t come as much of a surprise.

If you are dealing with Bluetooth issues with Android 5.0.1 on board, try switching the feature off and on. This is a simple fix but it’s worked for some Nexus users in the past. You’ll also want to try clearing the cache on Bluetooth Share. To do this, head into Settings -> Apps -> Scroll over to All -> Select Bluetooth Share -> Clear Cache. After doing this, power down your phone or tablet and boot back up.

You can also try to Clear Data from the same screen. This is going to cause your device to forget your Bluetooth devices so if you’re going to have problems setting the phone or tablet up with your favorite speaker or your car, you’ll need to be aware of that.

If none of the aforementioned fixes work, you’ll also want to try booting into Safe Mode. To do this, follow Google’s instructions:


  • Ensure your device’s screen is on, then press & hold the Power button.
  • Touch & hold the Power off option in the dialog box.
  • Touch OK in the following dialog to start safe mode.
