Even newer devices that have been on the market for just a few months are without any form of Android 5.0 Lollipop. While we know why the Galaxy Note 4 has been slow to receiving the update, nothing has been said regarding the Galaxy Note Edge. The likely reason would be that it is taking Samsung a lot of time to tailor the software for the curved portion of the display. Fortunately for those tired of waiting, a build of Android 5.0.1 for the Galaxy Note Edge has leaked.
Everything is pretty much how you would expect it to be. TouchWiz is here to stay and elements of Lollipop are present. On XDA, it is noted that the build is a beta and that means issues can be found. Right now, the frequency of the Snapdragon 805 processor is not correct and requires users to manually set it to 3000MHz upon flashing the build.
It is an official build (XXU1BOA2); therefore, following directions will not cause your warranty to be rendered useless. It is available for both SM-N915FY and SM-915F variants of the Galaxy Note Edge.
