I'm still trying to work out the Wifi issue... I hope I can, because there is much to like about this camera. In other forums, I'm seeing Nexus and Samsung owner having trouble after the last Lollipop update, nothing before. Worse come to worst, I'm betting I can make it go with my HTC One, which doesn't have Lollipop.

You don't happen to remember how long your initial connection time was, do you? I gave up around the five minute mark every time!

Yea, 5 minutes is way too long. Just just be a matter of 10 seconds or so before the connection happens.

Have you tried another WiFi network? Have you tried camera access point mode? At what point is it getting stuck? Is the camera seeing the phone at all? Is the camera connecting to the network at all?
