Sprint Galaxy S5 tipped to score Android 5.0 Lollipop starting tomorrow, Feb. 5 [Update: Rollout underway]

Update: We've received tips from users stating that the Lollipop update is now rolling out. If you're rocking a Galaxy S5 on Sprint, head to your device's settings to see if an update is available.

Original story: It looks like folks on Sprint may actually nab two Android 5.0 Lollipop updates tomorrow. According to a FAQ posted by Samsung, the Sprint Galaxy S5 is set to pick up some Lollipop love starting tomorrow, February 5.

The update was detailed on Samsung's update support page with the following changelog:

  • Android OS update to v5.0 Lollipop
  • Enhanced VoWiFi UI
  • Lumen tool bar removed

This comes shortly after news HTC's One M7 will also pick up some of Google's latest on Sprint starting tomorrow.

Of course, with no formal announcement, plans could change at the last minute. However, February 5 is looking like it might be a decent day to have an M7 or S5 on Sprint. If you do happen to score the update tomorrow, be sure to swing by this post and let us know how you're enjoying Lollipop on your S5.
