Hi I own a Spice Dream uno smartphone.. I am happy to announce that I got lollipop 5.1 update for my phone. I have no words to express its goodness. What really catches my attraction is its UI, the all new Material UI.. Superb..

there is no multi user option in mmx either. i have not reset the fone though, but i guess they removed this feature from android one system.

u better ask the question at xda forums, see what the experts say there.

its availabel on flipkart for only 3600 with axis bank discount, only for today, what you say guys, should i go for it

could not buy that, as the discount is only applicable if you buy above 5k, what is the point, anyway, will buy some other good mobile

this year is going to be flooded with mobile with 1 gb ram and 8 gb rom in below 5k category may be even in 3000 category

so better wait and watch, its going to be very mainstream now

Bought one. Need suggestions from guys who already upgraded to LP. Is it worth upgrading or KK is better ? The phone will be used strictly for only calling and a bit messaging, nothing else (may once in a blue moon internet).

lollipop drains battery heavily for this purpose only. with only calls and mssgs, i used to have 4-5 days of battery backup with mmx, after lollipo its ~3 days. but managing gprs is easier with lollipop, and if u're active app user, perhaps lolli will give better battery than kitkat.

on tje other side, today mmx released another system update for android one, any idea what its about ?

I guess we are talking about Spice device, not the one from MMX. Thanks for the battery tip though, I will give update a shot.

i powered on my phone for the first time y'day...have kept the lollipop update on hold after seeing the posts on the previous page here and some comments/reviews regarding the battery back-up time having gone down....any of you other than icebags facing these issues (no multiple accounts, less batt. back-up)?

Anybody using call recorders on android one phones? If yes, then please tell me the name of working call recorder app.
Also, I have found these 2 call recorder apps after searching, please try them on the latest 5.1.1 update and post the result.
