The time has come to update your AndEx installation to a new version build on top of the Android 5.1.1 Lollipop mobile operating system and Linux kernel 4.0.3, as Arne Exton has informed us recently.

AndEx Build 150610 is here to update the Lollipop version of Android to 5.1.1, which was released on April 27, 2015, as well as to rebase the entire distribution on a new, optimized kernel package based on the upstream Linux kernel 4.0.3. Of course, the GAPPS (Google Apps) package is installed by default so you can enjoy Google's services.

Therefore, users will be able to access applications like YouTube, Google Maps, GMail, and Google Play Store. Additionally, AndEx Build 150610 comes with Facebook, OfficeSuite 8, and Pool Break Lite. Users are being informed by Arne Exton that the Google Play store app can be used to install new applications, and that Aptoide app manager should be used only if they don't find their favorite apps in Google's store.

"My compiled Android–x86 system (Lollipop 5.1.1) can run live (from DVD or a USB stick) or be installed on almost all laptops (and some Desktop computers). For example Acer (Aspire), HP, Samsung, Dell, Toshiba, Lenovo, Thinkpad, Fujitsu, Panasonic and Asus laptops," says Arne Exton for Softpedia.
