It's only been a short few hours since the downgrade, but usability is far superior already... Definitely recommended for any other nexus 7 users on 5.x lollipop
I hope google stops the crap here. They are clogging things down so badly with the latest updates. My Galaxy S5 is starting some real crap lately. Lagging on startup. Lagging when I wake the phone up. Apps crashing. Starting to really annoy me.

I'm still on 4.4 since I've made "unauthorized change" and it wouldn't let me upgrade, guess it's a good thing.I've upgraded my mom's xperia mini and it seems to works okay, although there are a few new issues that I'm not sure if it's due to the new OS yet.

My phone regularly stalls when I swipe to unlock, and apps crash daily. And for some weird reason, at random my wallpaper will be cut in half, the upper half will remain on the screen and the lower half is black, with all my icons still present and all functions normal.
