Woke up this morning to this notification. "new system software is downloaded and ready to install".

I'm afraid to mess with a phone that works as well as this Turbo.

Any advice?

The update adds Verizon's Advance calling 1.0 - which is both Voice over LTE and Video Calling capability to your handset. I updated with no problem whatsoever

Do it nao! Get to da choppa!! Yes, you should definitely update. Besides the above enhancements, there's also a bunch of other improvements and fixes as well. Here's more info on it from Motorola:

But they didn't quite list everything, apparently. A thread was started for people to list improvements (has now been merged with another thread), starting with post #287 on this page:

Make sure after you download/install the update that you enable the "HD Voice" feature on your line either by the My Verizon app, on the VZW website, or calling VZW. Then wait a few minutes, reboot, and double-check that "Advanced Calling" is turned 'on' under settings. Finally, you can find specific instructions and other good stuff for the Advanced Calling features from its FAQ:

Advanced Calling 1.0 | Verizon Wireless

Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo VoLTE or Simultaneous Voice and Data

Thanks for this link. I had been following that thread when it disappeared and I was unable to find it. I'm still kinda on the fence about whether to get a Turbo or not (it's the frontrunner), and this thread was really swaying me towards this phone.

^^ You can go to the FAQ via the link above for detailed instructions, but the remaining checklist of requirements for simultaneous voice/data if you've already installed the update is:

Enable "HD Voice" feature on your line via My Verizon app/VZW website/calling VZW, wait a few minutes and reboot, double-check that "Advanced Calling" is 'on' under settings, and make sure that you're in a location with a 4g signal.

Are you in LTE coverage when doing this? The way it works with these new phones with only one antenna, is if you want to do data when on a call, you need to have Advanced Calling installed and activated and be in LTE coverage, or use WiFi for the data part. There is no simultaneous voice and data if you don't have an LTE signal or WiFi.
