Just a few months after Android L 5.0 Lollipop was rolled out, a 5.1 version is planned to be launched in February, ahead of its reported summer release.

According to Android Pit, the latest version will first be released on Nexus devices before it is made available for other major devices.

But Android 5.0 Lollilop did not come without its flaws. Aside from only a handful of users choosing to go for the upgrade, inability to connect to Wi-Fi became a major issue. A couple of users also experienced a huge loss of memory in their devices when they tried to install the software update.

In November of last year, Lollipop was supposed to come out earlier but Google withheld the update due to a bug that was causing issues on the devices' batteries, reports ZD Net.

With only less than 0.1% of users upgraded to Lollipop, the latest Android version paled in comparison to the Android 4.4 KitKat which had 1.1% users on its first month.

Right now, KitKat remains to be the most downloaded software for Android devices with 39.1% of Android users to date. It is followed by Jelly Bean versions 4.1.x with 19.2%, 4.2.x with 20.3%, and 4.3 with 6.5%. It is trailed behind by Ice Cream Sandwich, 4.03-04, with 7.8%, and antique Froyo, 2.2, with 0.4%.

When Lollipop was first released to Nexus devices, a couple of users warned against upgrading to the system because of technical mishaps, which included repeated crashes and device slowdown. Some users complained that the audio in the devices had also failed to work.

In a separate article published on ZD Net, some users commented that the Lollipop update was "unusable" after their tablets became "laggy" and would randomly restart. Other users, in fact, said that they regretted the over-the-air download.

The new features offered by Android Lollipop are indeed promising, as could be on the website of Android. For one thing, the update includes a longer battery life, with an extension of up to 90 minutes.

It also offers new ways to view and respond to messages and phone calls. With Lollipop, the user is now allowed to access messages from the lock screen. Moreover, incoming phone calls will not interrupt with the mobile application you are on, as it would give you the option to pick up the call or continue with what you are doing. Another feature is better Internet connection everywhere and more powerful Bluetooth connectivity.

As for the Googe operating system's problems, the 5.1 update hopes to address these issues with the needed bug fixes.
