Motorola Droid Turbo: Bugs, quirks, problems and more

Re: problems/quirks with your turbo.

Yes 4. Screen jumps back and fourth from whatever app I have open to the all open apps screen. Back and fourth quickly. Screen completely freeks out. Power button is the only thinks that stops it. Any solutions?

Re: problems/quirks with your turbo.

When I dictate a text message to the phone it will often type it in twice, which is quite annoying. Its happened in several different apps. Sometimes after I send the message it will type it a second time in the window. Anyone else have this?

I have the same issue with Sticher Podcast Player. I pause and it will start again 30 seconds later every time. Haven't tried it with other audio apps yet.

I noticed Stitcher came out with an update to fix this... I am not using it currently, did the update fix the issue for you? Slacker is notoriously slow at fixing bugs, so I'm not holding my breath.

Why is the back button on the left? I'm coming from a Samsung and, as a right-handed person, I could hold the phone in one hand and navigate and go back to things easily. Since the button is on the left with the droid, I am forced to use 2 hands. Is there logic to this?

It looks like its been fixed now. At least my first attempt didn't continue playing after being paused.

It matches the android standard. The question should be why does Samsung do it differently from stock android?

I have a problem with my phone when it turns back on either after turning it off manually or it dying. It re-sends messages when it turns back on. When I go to my messaging. It shows that the message was sent but when I click on the person's name that the message was sent to, it doesn't show the message that was resent.

Dying? What do you mean by saying your phone dies?

What messaging app are you using?

I didn't see this question asked so I'll ask. Recently I can no longer upload videos to facebook or send videos via email. it doesn't matter if it is a 1 sec or 10 minute video or anything in-between. I can upload to instagram though? any ideas?

facebook just locks up and the task manager pull down says facebook uploading but it's sat like that for over 8 hours before. email just says can not send file.

So my Turbo just lost the ability to hear calls. The speakerphone works but not when off speakerphone. Moto suggested a factory reset but wanted to see if anyone else had this issue.

Did you get an answer about "Contact Doesn't Exist"?

I'm hoping this is just an issue/bug with my phone, but service is not good.
My cell service is mainly at 2 bars at home, and WiFi is awful. It's only full if I'm right next to the router. Down a bar if I'm one room away, 2 bars if I'm further.

Sounds like you got a buggered phone. I use 5ghz WiFi and its doing just fine. I've got 2 other Verizon phones as a reference at my home, and mine consistently has better signal than the others (GS4, and GS5)
I usually get 3 - 4 bars the others get 2 - 3. The dbm is usually 2-3 lower (better) than the others when looking at it that way. The 5ghz wifi reception is not as good as the GS5, but it does work throughout the house.

On the corporate email, does anyone know how to make it so that the reply all function does not include the sender? It keeps including me in my own emails and there does not appear to be any setting. If anybody knows of a setting, please screen shot it. This appears to be a bug.

That is a setting on your exchange server. you need to go in to the OWA and disable it. I've had users with this issue as well. That fixed them up. I can confirm on Exchange 2013, my Turbo does NOT copy myself unless I have the option enabled in OWA.

So I'm having this issue with my Turbo where I will answer a call and the other end cannot hear me for a few seconds. Same goes for when I check my voicemail. The voicemail recording will start with the third or fourth word. Any ideas?

There are still issues with Advanced Calling 1.0. If you have that enabled you may wish to turn it off. Hopefully an update soon will fix it.

Does anyones phone shut off and it says 0 battery connect charger and shuts off but when I turn it back on it shows I have plenty of battery. One time it says i had 52% battery and another time was 38% and the other times it was over 40% battery life.

Are you using a wireless Qi charger?

Keep getting found location notification. Even while sitting in the same spot. Getting annoying.

But when I reply all from my computer, it doesn't include me in it. I'll check this out, but wouldn't it be the same on my computer and my phone. This was also not an issue with any previous phone of mine.

My turbo doesn't detect my handsfreelink in my 2010 Honda Oddessy. Kinda sux.
