    Android 6.0 Marshmallow for the DROID TURBO

    Re: marshmellow update? I think for those of us early buyers who waited so long for the L update in 2015, which post mortem was a good decision because of early glitches with L 5.0, we are just not anticipating anything different for M. I believe it will come, as Moto says, but timing who knows.

    Have Droid Turbo - What phone next?

    Re: What phone next? My turbo contract is up in Oct. On the fence about next choice. I would be interested in the next turbo 3, but I am put off by Verizon's handling of android updates, lets see how long it takes for turbo 2 and our turbo to get Marshmallow. I am hooked on wireless changing...

    is there nothing I can do to stop Lollipop update reminders?

    Rebecca, You really need to think longer term and find a solution that is future proof. Lollipop is already upgrading to Marshmallow, so you are talking about staying with an operating system and security flaws that are 2 generations old. Many people have complained about the "whiteness" that...

    Note 5 vs iPhone 6s

    Re: Aggravated with iOS /Android back and forth Yes I knew it as soon as I read your initial post, Your best choice, in lieu of clinical diagnosis & therapy lol, base your choice on your phone, you are loving the Note 5 so hand off the iPad and love the new Galaxy tab, best of luck :)

    Note 5 vs iPhone 6s

    Re: Aggravated with iOS /Android back and forth I think the difficulty for having one foot in each operating system, for those of us who have it, is clinically a form of OCD. I have it, have called it "evenism" in jest for years. Its a basic resistance to balancing unequal quantities/...

    Clock continuously pops up on lock screen

    All the Moto functions are accessed from the Moto app, should be on your home screen.

    Why does this phone use so much data?

    Go to advanced wifi settings and uncheck avoid bad wifi signals. This is on by default and uses 4G when wifi signal is not strong.

    Droid setup ?

    From the look of the home screen he definitely has a number of apps that are not part of OEM package, ie flixter, yahoo, stocks, flashlight, ESPN. They were all probably ported over by Verizon from his old phone, or a Verizon rep's idea of "essential apps". The lock screen app looks interesting...

    Just bought a used Turbo have a couple of questions.

    If you can get a discounted Droid Turbo go for it. I have had this phone since last November and if you look at my posts you will see I am a fan. The only factor worth noting, today it looks like a phone with a cover already on it, not having a sleek new form factor like most current 2015...

    Everything is fine

    Hey this may be a trend, everyone who has not had anything but a great experience with the Droid Turbo weigh in. I got mine last November and it has been nothing short of the best phone I have owned: super fast, no stutter, gorgeous screen, absolutely no battery anxiety! I have never had any of...

    Android 6.0 Marshmallow for the DROID TURBO

    Well one good thing I guess, the Turbo threads have just about died off, maybe this news will spark some new conversation to keep Turbo alive. I thoroughly enjoy L 5.1 and look forward to L 6.x as I plan on keeping this phone for at least another year. Nothing in 2015 has sufficiently moved...

    Volume issue....is there a real solution? I'm about to junk the Droid Turbo

    It might not be the turbo, but the way that square and zello are intergrating with L 5.1, assuming you have upgraded. Try a test, use each separately after a reboot. Ask someone to call you and see if it rings. Then go into settings/ programs/ running and see if each program software is still...

    Thinking of upgrading to Turbo

    That's funny you mention the leather case, I have been looking around for a leather back case that isn't a folding case, I don't want the leather front flap, but like the idea of a leather back as opposed to plastic. Can you share where you get your custom cases made, thanks.

    Thinking of upgrading to Turbo

    If it were me I would live with the Droid Maxx for another month, to see what the Turbo 2 looks like, its due out in October. The rumors seem firm about larger screen size and leaks of the form factor, the unknown is the "unbreakable display" chatter, which may be a very nice feature. It seems...

    My Battery Has To Be Bad!!!!

    To keep your phone from using data while on WIFI, Go into settings / WIFI / advanced/ and uncheck avoid bad WIFI connections. This will keep your phone from turning on data when WIFI signal is sketchy. I had a similar prob when I first got phone, using 4G when on WIFI. Good luck.
