![Download: Install Lollipop 5.1 on Your Nexus Now [Update: OTAs added]](http://hashtagandroid.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/android-5.1-lollipop-update-700x449.jpg)
On Monday, sheer hours after Apple’s event ended, Google announced Android Lollipop 5.1 to the masses. What they failed to do, was send OTA updates to the entire Nexus line so that everyone could have it. Luckily, they have uploaded (some of) the factory images for you to download and flash to your Nexus.
If you head on over to Google Developers site you can go download the images for your specific device. From there you can put your device into bootloader mode and then manually flash the images to your device to get the new version — or you can just wait… nah!
Currently only the Nexus 5, 6, 7 (2012), and 10 have their images uploaded, but the Nexus 7(2013), and 9 shouldn’t be too far behind.
What are you waiting for? Go download and update your device now!
Update: Nexus 5, 6, 7(2012 WiFi) and 10 OTA zips are now available. Download the zip and sideload using recovery into your stock device. Make sure the .zip you download matches the build you have now AND THAT YOU FLASH USING STOCK RECOVERY!

Urban Armor Gear LG G4 Case Review
June 23, 2015 | Vincent Messina
The Urban Armor Gear series of cases for the LG G4 aim to protect and serve your mobile device in a virtual blanket of, well, urban armor. Designed from a patented lightweight composite consisting of a hard outer shell and a soft impact resistant core, this dual layer defense not only meets military drop-test standards (MIL STD 810G 516.6), but looks good doing it. Now, before I go into more detail, let it be know that I have always been more of an au naturel device kind of guy, but after a bit of time with the Ash colored LG G4 Urban Armor Case, I can tell you that this case won’t be coming off any time soon.
Device Review: Droid Turbo, This is the Droid You’re Looking For
January 31, 2015 | Keyan X
The DROID brand deserves the majority of credit for the amount of early success that the Android operating system had in 2009 and 2010. From the original Motorola DROID to the original DROID Incredible, this was the brand of phones that people flocked to if they wanted a phone outside of the iPhone, not just because of a great marketing campaign, but because these were top of the line phones. Ask most of the readers on this site which phone got them started on Android, and you shouldn’t be surprised to hear them say, “The OG DROID.” It’s an iconic phone that helped launch Android to the top.
