In another attempt to fix the numerous bugs and issues of the initial version, Google is reportedly testing new programs in a Nexus device.
According to a report by Christian Times, a leak was allegedly spotted, showing that the search engine giant is testing a couple of programs on an LG Nexus 5 device. In the report, these two programs could be the Android 5.1 and Android 5.2 Lollipop versions.
In the past years, Google has made the habit of testing its newer Android versions to Nexus devices first, and then using some of HTC's current handsets.
This year may be no different, as mentioned in the report.
In the report, Mo Versi, Google's vice president for product management hinted last month that there will be new updates arriving this month.
"It'll be tied to Google's next MR, which is in March. Thanks", he stated in a tweet.
In the alleged leak which came from sources of Android Pit, some of the Android 5.1 changelogs would include a feature that will include a silent mode for the OS. For people who have already been using Android 5.0, the version does not support any silent modes.
In addition, there will also be some system and security improvements, RAM management, better power saving options, and a fix for sudden closure in some apps. In terms of Wi-Fi features, the report mentioned a fix for excessive consumption of network devices.
Other alleged fixes include wireless connections, issues with the Okay Google function, notification improvements, and some sound problems experienced by users in certain devices.
Right now, Android 5.0 Lollipop only accounts for less than 10 percent of the entire Android market. In fact, in a report by ZD Net last month, Android Lollipop users were nowhere to be found.
Hopefully, the development of the next versions, Android 5.1 and 5.2 would soon bring Lollipop to more devices.
