Just a few days ago, we brought you word that Sprint’s Samsung Galaxy S5 has finally been on the receiving end of the Android 4.4.4 KitKat update after some time of waiting. Well, it is not a surprise then to hear that there might be an Android 5.0 Lollipop update in store for the very same handset. After all, Samsung’s existing and previous generation flagships have been spotted running on Android 5.0 Lollipop with TouchWiz atop, albeit on an unofficial basis. What you see on the right happens to be a screenshot of just that elusive image.
This version of Android 5.0 Lollipop that runs with TouchWiz on top will cater to the SM-G900P, which so happens to be the Samsung Galaxy S5 which is made available by the folks over at Sprint. Do bear in mind that this particular firmware version will not run properly on other versions of the smartphone, so it might not be a prudent idea to go against the grain.
Being an unofficial build that is early in the game would certainly come with its fair share of niggling issues, including a slew of bugs and complications, but the so called “holy trinity” of a smartphone – calls, messaging, and internet, happen to be working just fine.
