Samsung Galaxy S2 Back In Market with the Android Lollipop Upgrade

The latest Android firmware upgrade has hit the stores, and it looks pretty exciting. This latest upgrade, called the Lollipop, is Android version 5.0. Since its release, it has been able to achieve a positive feedback from countless Android users along with many critics.

The Samsung Galaxy S2 is a bit off the market lately with the next generation models coming from the home team, Samsung. However, S2 users are in for a big surprise as news have surfaced over the internet that Android Lollipop v5.0 custom ROM is releasing for the S2 very soon.

The Lollipop team working on Galaxy S2 has already released a similar update, especially customized for Lollipop, known as the CodeRom Update. Although it is still in its beta stage as far as functionality is concerned, but latest news suggests that they are working hard on developing the latest software for the Galaxy S2.

Last heard, they have successfully proceeded with booting the animation spec with this CodeRom Update for the Android Lollipop 5.0 but a lot is left to be done. While understanding its functionality, developers state that CodeRom is ported with the use of AT&T AOSP ROM.

Samsung Galaxy S2 users are naturally very happy with this news. Previously, the S2 was equipped with Android Jellybean v4.1, and no further official upgrade was being discussed. So with the arrival of this news, users can get a taste of the Lollipop’s advanced interface.

Of course, this upgrade is not equipped with Samsung’s own TouchWiz interface but there is a new material at play here. This is an unofficial firmware, so users have to be very careful while following the installation procedures.

Other features of this phone are quite decent too, which include an 8 MP primary camera sporting 3,264 x 2,448 pixels and a 1.2 GHz Cortex A9 processor. With the inception of the Lollipop Upgrade, the phone will obviously receive a complete makeover as far as the interface design is concerned.

Priority settings of the applications will renovate under the 5.0 Lollipop upgrade with advanced control over notifications and device aptitude. Lock screen settings will change as well by providing users with more accessibility in case of relevant data and apps.
