My Nexus 5 running 5.1 has been suffering from random reboots and app optimizations.
Judging by the sheer volume of Nexus 5 users reporting this it looks very much like a software update may be killing the hardware. I'll be mega pissed if this phone dies due to s/w updates from Google.
Hoping no hardware damage, but boy does it run hot when optimizing those apps each time it dies.
Please +Android fix this.

Just got a note 4 last month and am refusing the 5+ upgrade. Not a single person I know can recommend it. As AI JR mentioned, do you have the option to go back to KitKat?
