How did you get on? Didn't get a chance to do the update yesterday, but will get it done today.

People often mistake me for an adult because of my age.

Keep calm, and carry on posting.

Tried 4 times now but the flakey wifi that the last update for it bought has bailed on it each time after about half a gig. Will try at the cousins place later since 200 meg shoud get the whole lot downloaded in about as long as the wifi lasts on the current software.

Just turned it on this morning and having all sorts of problems so have done a factory reset of the phone ( needed to anyway and re downloading the update again)

Will report back then
The factory reset was done by holding simultaneously the volume button, Home and power button. Then chose wipe data and reset

Got around to updating this morning, and did a factory reset to minimise any issues. Should be sorted in a few days! Would have been nice if they'd actually given us a more up to date version of lollipop. Oh well.
