Re: HUDL 2 Lollipop update
:surprised:
Just in time for Android 6 release :D
I hope the battery life is improved though, and given the HUDL 1 wasn't so fortunate in its updates this is rather good news.
Re: HUDL 2 Lollipop update
The wife's Hudl2 updated last night.
At first it seemed pretty hosed, so I suggested firing up Google Play store and sure enough some key components wanted updating. It seems happy now.
It only does Facebook and Candy Crush mind, so it hasn't exactly been stressed :D
Re: HUDL 2 Lollipop update
Mine's fine since the factory reset, once I'd got Google Now launcher on, that is...
Battery life, responsiveness etc seem the same, so all in all, OK with me...
Re: HUDL 2 Lollipop update
Smudger, can I ask you a few questions about the reset?
Did you do a hardware or software reset?
How do you restore after a reset?
Ah, turns out I only had two questions.
Re: HUDL 2 Lollipop update
wow, tesco were so slow to release any new updates to this... i do hope modaco will release a new rooted rom
Re: HUDL 2 Lollipop update
To be fair, I wasn't expecting any updates at all, so being only one iteration behind is a bonus to me!
Just had the flashing battery charge light this morning, does this mean I'm going to be afflicted by the infamous battery issues? I pulled out the charging cable and put it back in and it's gone back to a solid orange light now...

Sorry, just seen this.
1) I did a factory reset from the Android Settings menu, rather than from Recovery Mode.
2) As soon as you login to your Google account after the reset, it asks you if you want to restore from backup. Works pretty well now, most apps are restored and go into the same groups as I had them in before.
Re: HUDL 2 Lollipop update
Anyway, not good news this morning: looked at my Hudl which had been left on all night, and the screen was just white. Switched it off and back on again, got the annoying Hudl startup sound, and then the screen gradually increased contrast until the whole this was white again. Anyone seen this, is there a fix, or is it back to the shop with it?
Only thing is, they're not making them any more, so if there's no stock, I don't get a new one...
Re: HUDL 2 Lollipop update
Sounds like the ribbon cable into the screen is not quite in right
Re: HUDL 2 Lollipop update
They're going to pick it up and send it off for repair. THe bloke said they'd probably just replace the whole screen unit.
I'd hoped they's do a direct swapout, but apparently as it's over 30 days old, I don't get that.
