Updated 2 hours ago.

Multi-tasking seems snappier but still not KK speed. Gonna use it for a while and see if it has any effect in general. After updating, I'm having some on/off problems with SIM card again ( US set ), will check back in after further usage.

Read on G+ that someone who was rooted was not able to get the tablet back on after updating, so take note.

SHIELD Tablet Software Upgrade 2.1
This update contains important enhancements to further improve your SHIELD tablet experience, including:

Operating System update to Android 5.0.1
SHIELD Tablet gets updated to the latest version of Android 'Lollipop'. This is a minor release which includes a few bug fixes and updates

Improvements in general UI and app responsiveness, including switching between apps

Camera enhancements: Live HD Effects (HDFX)

SHIELD Power Control Menu
We’ve brought back the SHIELD Power Control Menu, based on community feedback

How much did you pay for it? Still cannot decide whether to get this or not.
367 Euros in total. Well, its more ex than US model. but at least the 4G should work I think. LOL~

I wanted to get it mainly because it has the built in mini HDMI port. :)

The price actually not bad. Almost same as Amazon UK set. US set may be cheaper but they don't ship the LTE version directly to SG.

Yes. Sent by Iparcel this time but delivered by speed post. The tracking update is slow. Still shows its at Surrey. So far both items sent by Amazon UK arrived on time or earlier.
bro, just to check with you since this is my first time using the registered article service by signpost to send back the tablet back to Amazon UK. I just realise from Signpost website that it mentioned that they will not provide tracking services once the parcel is out of Singapore and mine was written as arrival at GB on the 30th Dec and till now no further update and it seems that the parcel has yet to reach Amazon.

Just wonder if you have confirm with Amazon that they had received your return tablet? And if there is any update at Singpost that shows that it had delivered to Amazon?

Thanks.

Hi, Yes my tracking also shows that it arrived at GB and no updates after that. Amazon UK even sent an email to remind me to return it. I replied to them again that I've already sent it back along with the tracking number.

The tracking shows that it arrived in GB on the 17th of Dec. I just recently received an email that Amazon finally received the item on the 5th of Jan and that they are processing it. So it does take a while for them to receive it even though its in UK for 2 weeks.

Hope this info helps.
