Hey folks, I just talked to Motorola tech support and thought I'd give it a shot in the dark and ask. The guy told me that the Lollipop update for the Droid Turbo is scheduled for Dec 16-17. He said it after a brief pause - seemed to me like he was looking it up, as opposed to pulling an estimate out of thin air. That was a rather specific answer and up until now I haven't heard this anywhere at all. I did a double-take and asked again to be sure - yup, no joke! Who knows if he'll be right or not.
I actually signed up for these forums (after lurking for quite awhile) just to relay this. Don't shoot the messenger if turns out not to be true!Can't wait!
Whether this turns out to be true or not, it is still welcome information since anything previously has been pure speculation. Thanks for passing it along. You won't be lambasted (by most of us) if it turns out to be incorrect -- that shyte happens all the time. At least your information came from a Verizon source.Hey folks, I just talked to Motorola tech support and thought I'd give it a shot in the dark and ask.

Yeah, honestly until they develop a dark themed version of lollipop I'm not all that excited. White backgrounds for everything are too bright for my liking and they probably use more battery. In a dark room who wants to be staring at a sheet of white light. just my opinion.
I agree also. I cant Stand the white background on my nexus 7 and 10. Battery saving feature is nice though, but I cant see really needing it with the Beastly Turbo battery.Yeah, honestly until they develop a dark themed version of lollipop I'm not all that excited.

I agree. I'm pretty OCD when it comes to how my phone is set up & organized. I find I use it more & more for everything "not" a phone and getting it just right takes some time. As is, it's the most perfect phone I've had to date so while I'll definitely update to 5.0, I'm certainly in no hurry.I can wait. It took almost 3 weeks to get the phone where I am happy with it and everything works well and fast. Coming from Apple I have experienced too many times the battery killing CPU slowing updates. You guys can be the guinea pigs lol
+1Edit: All the same, Ima let a couple dozen of you guys run L for about a week for soaking before I dip into a potential bug pool.

Has anybody tried rooting and installing a lollipop ROM? I haven't checked if there's a stable one out for the droid turbo, but I'm curious if it's worth trying or if it's better to sit tight and wait.
The Droid Turbo has been added to the Lollipop development page on Motorola's website! Are you excited? and what are your thoughts?
