Pros and Cons updating Moto E first gen to Android 5.1 Lollipop

Hi,

I am an owner of one Moto E XT1021 first gen phone. Right now it has Android Kitkat 4.4.4 on it.
This morning warned me of system update available to Android Lollipop 5.1. (and this in Romania).
I know many of other people like to update to the new OS. But I doubt in Moto E first gen is good this. And previously read on different articles about the main problem with the storage for this Moto E fist gen because of the 4G available on main storage.
I open this thread because I didn't found some other thread treating only this subject (pros and cons about Lollipop update on Moto E firstgen).
I wait for opinions especially from those already making the update and if there is a good life or bad life after the update.
What are the pros for updating, what is working and what is maybe wonderful ... and what are the cons, what is not working and maybe even blocking and annoying about Lollipop on Moto E firstgen?
Thanks.

Bumper / Shell

Anyone seen any bumpers/shells (just going along the periphery of the phone) for the 5X? I'll be new to nexus so not sure if the old ones ever got these.

I'm running one on my Moto X 2013 and its great. Lighter than a lot of cases and lets you keep the back open or put a dbrand skin on it.

Help pls, code for hor mov based on 24 hrs parameters

Hello everyone!

I've been playing with this awesome widget for a while, mostly overlaying images to do cool clocks and stuff
However I got to a point today where, inside a fisheye I wanted to put an image of a timelapse scenery that moves horizontally based on a 24 hrs data.

For the life of my I cant figure out the code (Even though Im a master in MS Excel) to make it move to a 150 coordinate at noon, -30 at midnight with a middle point of 60 at 6 pm and am, so basically it has to go back and forth, like this:

X Y
0 -30
3 15
6 60
9 105
12 150
15 105
18 60
21 15
24 -30

Im thinking on some IFs to pull it out but I cant put it together in the code for the widget.
Please help me :):):):)

Fingerprint Unlock turns on device.

Hi Devs,

Is it possible to have the fingerprint unlock turn on the screen aswell? Like at this moment we need to first turn on the screen and then we can touch and unlock but other android devices like OP2, can be unlocked while they are off aswell.

Ability to switch to 1080p resolution

Like in Z5 premium, do we have ability to change resolution from 2k to 1080p. Or do we need custom rom for this to happen?

is there any way to make S OFF ?

with firewater its not working for me.
i always getting an error on this
adb wait-for-device push firewater /data/local/tmp

is there any other way?
