Android 5.0 Lollipop comes to the Nubia Z7 Max

Ying HuaMarch 6, 2015

Lollipop makes its way to the large screen Nubia Z7 Max with the latest Nubia UI ROM.

Nubia 2.8 has been announced in China for the Nubia Z7 Max, and while it isn’t a stable build just yet it does begin the sweet Lollipop rollout for the flagship Nubia range.

As well as bringing the latest version of Android to phone, improvements include new animations, updated camera interface, a new lock screen and status bar. So far most of the bugs reported are to do with 3rd partly applications.

If you want to run the Android 5.0 update on your Nubia Z7 Max you must do so via a manual update, and also remember that this is a beta ROM and not really meant for non developer use.

All the necessary files can be found over on the Nubia forum in China.

I’m not going to upgrade mine to Lollipop. I have it on my Nexus 7 and I’m not really impressed. Besides, there are certain apps that I love and rely on like LeanDroid where you lose certain functions. Kitkat for me.

From classy to trash – pathetic stuff – upgraded last night, repenting badly. There’s also no way to go back to the last KitKat Rom, since there’s repartitioning involved.
What a fail – this Rom’s UI makes the phone look like a 720p handset.

  Hate to say “I told you so!” It’s perfect on kitkat.

  I have said this all along: I would much rather have a stable version of an older Android than a rushed, buggy version of the newest one.
