The software update is around 377MB in size, which isn’t too bad at all for a full system update like this.

Every now and then, Verizon likes to go and surprise us, and this week they did just that. They updated the Galaxy S5 to Android 5.0.1 Lollipop – imagine that! They even did a fairly decent job of explaining some of the new features on their support page, but diehard Samsung fans will no doubt have seen every leaked video of the update available. Still, it’s nice that this update is here so quickly on Verizon, and for more info you can head to their official support site.

The original HTC One (no no, not the One X guys) is getting updated to Android 5.0.2 this week. HTC have started with the Developer Edition of the handset which gets a massive 702MB update complete with Sense 6. The software version is  7.17.1540.7 and with Sense 6 onboard, this should bring with it many of the features from the HTC One M8 as well. Elsewhere, Sprint is rolling out the update, too. Sprint’s HTC One M7 is getting Android 5.0.1 with Sense 6 as well, and a software version of 6.16.651.2. You might have already downloaded it by now, but if you haven’t there’s a sizable 1.5GB RUU available from HTC here.
