Just got a soak invite - Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General

Less than 10 minutes ago got an invite for the lollipop soak. Hurray!

I got one too! Light at the end of tunnel and its not another freight train!

Got one a minute ago for the droid turbo I got rid of. Lol. Good luck with it!

Great news guys you're gonna swallow your words about lollipop and you are gonna love it

By all means, please keep sharing who gets invites. Even better if you use the same handle on the Motorola forums!

Everyone in this thread should be ashamed. You are breaking NDA with Moto by talking about this in public. I do hope that you are removed from the soak and kicked out of the MFN.

It says we aren't allowed to discuss what is actually in the soak test, not that we can't mention it exists.

You are wrong. If you join the soak, you are saying you will not talk about it in public, period. You also electronically sign an NDA stating the same thing when you originally sign up for the MFN.

They want to make a mystery out of nothing. It is ridiculous!

Yes there is about keeping private but that won't stop people from leaking it and spreading it.

Hooooly **** this better not be a hoax.

I'm rooted using mofo. How would I go about reverting my Turbo to stock in order to receive this update?

I wouldn't though, if you want to keep root. Wait for a rooted image. If you don't you could lose root forever.

Looks like Gingerbread is confirmed (update: Just a Samsung copy-paste error)

As per Samsung Galaxy S Support on Twitter:
twitter .com/GalaxySsupport/status/15064053055492096
Sorry for the link
I wonder when this will be released then, if it's confirmed. Considering an official 2.2 build isn't even out yet
They are shipping 2.2 and going straight to gingerbread. Too many issues with froyo

I think you are mis reading the tweet.
"@tsytsma US Galaxy S line to 2.3 has been made & we aren't prepared to discuss this at this time. ^Sabrina"
I read this as they have made their statement on US GS 2.3 prior and they are not prepared to discuss it further. IMHO but would be sweet if it is the other way around.

Actually, I think this "Sabrina" bot at the Samsung Twitter is making a huge typo by pasting in a fragment of the boilerplate comment they have been tweeting all week. Here is an example of that boilerplate from yesterday:
@OrangeRafi No official statement about updating US Galaxy S line to 2.3 has been made & we aren't prepared to discuss this at this time.

Yup. The Samsung Twitter site now confirms that the comment was truncated:

So in other words, Samsung is just repeating its denial that any announcement about Gingerbread has been made.

I9020A got OTA! (and how to got it now)

I have a i9020A of Canada Fido and I got the 4.0.4 OTA just now! From my 2.3.6 all stock, no root no unlock nexus s.
the package is 128.6M and I am still downloading it. Here is the method to help you to get it NOW!
Manage APPs -> ALL->Google services Framwork: clear data ->dial *#*#2432546#*#* (*#*#checkin#*#*)->GOT IT!

PS: It has been one day and many people posted that they received the OTA. It's NOT a April joke.... However, I know many people's nexus s don't work. As the OTA file is availiable already, you can easily manual flash it using stock recovery. I did the method above for half a day and finally got it (The method was originally from a Chinese forum http://bbs.gfan.com/viewthread.php?tid=3941961&extra=page%3D1%26amp%3B%20sortid%3D and http://bbs.gfan.com/android-3941883-1-1.html They got the OTA at 12:05pm, 31/3, Canada Eastern Time )
Did you get the url?

maybe but that jives with a few other reports from yesterday, which would be a bit early for that. Now if one of the i9020A users from the great white north can capture the URL, the AT&T crowd can get there factory update on.
A url will be much appreciated.

in fact, the clear data step may not be necessary, but I do think the checkin step matters.

Skip right to M

I was doing some reading online and saw an article that said its a possibility that the delay in the lollipop rollout hints to Motorola skipping 5.1 and going straight to M. Thoughts?

You just read in this post that droid turbo will skip right to N after the release of M and L. Furthermore, sources say that it will be released after collaboration between VZW and Motorola. You heard it here first.
I really laughed when I read the title
Nope. Moto is pushing the turbo right to N! As soon as it's built, tested and launched..oh ya! Moto definitely did not completely forget or stop caring about the turbo.

Lets look at this logically for a second.
Why would a Chinese site report on an American carrier and phone?
http://www.yibada.com/
Now, logic aside, lets look at the source.
http://autoomobile.com/news/motorola-droid-turbo-android-m-instead/10023303/
Wait, pure speculation, including the final name of M? Heh.
This is the same site that has been making up crap like Lollipop is currently rolling out. They have since modified their articles, probably from the backlash they got from it. Twice they said Lollipop was rolling out, once in December, and again at the beginning of the year. Both times, wrong.
There are a few rings of websites that all link to each other and use each other as sources to increase their position on google and generate revenue from ads. They either make up stuff or copy from other, legit sites. Don't fall for these tricks and don't give them traffic

My thoughts are you don't want that to happen.
Verizon would give the Droid Turbo "M" SIX months after M is named and released (sometime in 2016). Do you want to wait that long?
MEANWHILE, the 2015 Quark follow up would already be on the market, if there is one.

That's a good tip I didn't know about. You just block the G+ pages of these websites? I get pissed every time I see "master herald" in Google Now!
I want the turbo to go straight to Android m aka muffin. Besides I don't think the turbo will get lollipop. I think they might skip right to muffin aka android m
Or maybe right to Necco wafer...
Next we'll hear they're restarting the alphabet and the Droid Turbo will be getting Android A soon.
