I can't figure out how to edit the top post on this
Got the update this morning and hardly noticed. One thing to note is the Verizon messaging application crashes when trying to send and receive MMS forcing me to use the new version. I only noticed because of this glitch. It has other instabilities as well and my battery suffered a loss, I only get about a full days use where I used to have almost 2. Also the phone keeps going into Airplane mode. The camera can't record in 4k mode either...
The first is the phone before the update, the latter two are after... Still near stock with circles widget. I can take it in to get it replaced, but I don't want the Verizon tramp stamp...

Sorry Droid Turbo, and no I don't do soak tests. I rely too heavily on the device for business. I have a feeling the update may get delayed due to this. Trust me there are issues, and it is the only reason I noticed I got the update at all. The Maxx is the non-Verizon version.
Can you post some screenshot of the 'about phone'?
Any new stuff on the lollipop for droid turbo?

Also, I think you can downgrade the phone to 4.4.4 by RSD, if you need the firmware.xml, I get send a link to you.
If you've got lollipop, then why is the usb debugging icon from kitkat? :/
It's an alternative launcher....
So you got the update this morning? And yet you already know how the battery life is? Yeah nothing to see here, move along. Let's lock this before it gets out of hand
The op is also the guy that claims to have got root working.. Then provided Nada...
There's actually no indicative that it's lollipop. It's just the Google Now launcher before and after the update (app update)
Everything looks as kitkat as it could. Sorry, pal. You didn't fool us
Hey look, I got the update too!!
Its called an updated Google Now Launcher (or any other up to date third party launcher for that matter), not Lollipop.

He also claimed that the soak test was over and Lollipop was rolling out two weeks ago. Of course, some of us know better.
Damn, the guy didn't even had the work to change the Kitkat debug logo on the status bar. I don't know if he's a bad pretender or really believed that his device was updated.

Go ask Motorola for yourselves, it is past the soak test, and is now rolling out in the first wave. As soon as my device gets the update I will post screenshots, but I did provide proof of the Motorola conversation screenshot. I didn't even edit out my name. I stand by my word.

I have it temporarily rooted, it loses root upon reboot, please wait until I can get a script working. I have been granted temporary root via camera. It grants temporary root via USB Debugging turned on with MTP and all that turned off. I have been able to remove VZW Bloatware... no luck on bootloader yet though.

I thought I would, but everything I used to use root for I can do non-rooted now. This has all that I want and more, only a few minor setbacks.
USB OTG for storage, and USB gamepad, keyboards etc...
Wireless HDMI
USB Tethering I use PDA Net
Sideloading applications, provided they are signed, and signing an unsigned application isn't that hard...
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I can hide the apps (only drawback) but not uninstall them
I can't load kernel modules
Buttons are hardware so changing them is a non-issue
I can't change the battery icon
In fact up until the Lollipop update, the device has been fast, smooth, stable, and did everything I wanted. I think rooting and romming aside, and of course my next phone will be a developer phone, but I can live without root for a little while, this works well. I am off to the Verizon store to replace this so I can get a working Kit-Kat version, if I can get one without the Verizon trampstamp. If not I will just wait for a fix which will be coming shortly.

This guy is worthy of your ignore list. He first claims soak is over and Lollipop is rolling out weeks ago, then posts a launcher fake-out.
He claims he has root, then says he doesn't miss it? what a troll.

I already reported him as did a few others so hopefully they can deal with him. He must live a sad life, I really feel bad for him
All it took was 2 seconds looking at the wifi icon to see that this wasn't lollipop. I mean, come on, really? What's the point in this? I agree, definitely worthy of ignore list.

Depending on the oem the wifi icon may or may not change. If you look at the s5 for verizon that icon didnt change.

That's touchwiz you're talking about. It doesn't look like stock android anyway. The Turbo (like most Moto phones) is meant to be as close to stock as possible. I'd be willing to bet quite a bit that our wifi icon will be solid white when we get the update.
How the hell does he get a full day of use if he got the update this morning. Please close thread and stop giving him attention.
Stop the bull****, the wifi icons are from kitkat

Yep, installing now. Pretty impressive of VZW, if these are indeed the latest (June) security updates that just landed on my Pixel C.
Yep, version APE1 also for me.

lol... from your signature: "Its not the device....its operator error."
But seriously... A lot of people have this phone and aren't having the issues you are describing. I have the S7. It works perfectly (except the whole no root deal). But my girlfriend on the other hand also comes to me with these random issues.
Says the screen won't turn on, and the camera keeps crashing. Ok, so I look at it. The (cheap) case that she bought from Amazon is holding down the power button so when she presses it, of course nothing happens. And when the screen doesn't turn on via the power button she spams the home key, which is configured to launch the camera after a double tap. Hence, the camera keeps doing funny things. So yeah... operator error. But she's a smart girl. I told her about those things and now everything is fine. She got a new case and we turned off the double-tap home key camera shortcut. Problems solved.
Just gotta find the source of the issues man. These phones are legit. Good luck
Good for you, bye.

disable update nag
Is there a way to disable the update nag prompt? I am not going to update my phone, in the hopes that someday we will see a root option. I can swipe to remove the prompt, but it remains perpetually in my notifications. Is there a way to remove this?

Nothing for a specific notification. You could try long pressing on the notification and seeing if it lets you disable notifications for the whole app but chances are it would be something like SystemUI or other system app so even if it did let you disable all notifications for the app, you may miss others like the USB connection choice for example.
Disable ota
Package disabler pro.. It's a paid app but it's cheap enough and it certainly does the job.. you can disable system update plus partially debloat your phone if careful not to disable the wrong process.. it tells you what you can or cannot disable.. it won't free up space but it will stop the update notifications.. it's envitable that you'll accidently update sooner or later if you don't disable the nag notification..
A lot of times it centers around installed apps as well. Sometimes, all it takes is one to cause issue with the rest of the phone. Did you check on any "same" apps you installed? I've had this thing for a year now, some issues now and then, but was primarily due to apps..uninstalling, updating or finding a supported app was often the solution.
My wife has has an S7 also (a year into Verizon's Samsung devices as well), the only time there's issue is when she doesn't update the apps she has installed. A few of the same apps on different phones, but no problems.
As far as SDCARD issues, what type of card/brand? I had issue with SanDisk cards in my previous samsung phones, so I switched to only using samsung cards...no problems whatsoever since I've changed card brands.

What? This phone was only released a little over 3 months ago.
sorry, meant with Verizon's Samsung over the last year. GS7 since it's been out. Still no notable issues either way...at least nothing worth crying about.
We were with Sprint before for over a decade. Had Samsung devices since the GS"II" (yeah, that's #2), not many issues over the years at all.
Doesn't look like the samsung site has the latest info on this update, but my phone just updated to this firmware, curious to see what this addresses.. i hope network performance lol

Does this fix the data/voice dropout? (DNS, data and voice not working even though the 4G icon shows)
I thought this was Sprint bogging down my "unlimited data". Glad to know its not just me experiencing this issue. I had no issues when I first got my phone in October. Something told me not to download the update smh

Yeah, my phone became unusable. I had to restart to get data/voice working. This would happen randomly multiple times a day.

Sounds like you already did everything I was thinking of doing already. Did that at least solve the issue. I wonder how they was able to roll it back being Samsung usually blocks it. Last hope may be the Oreo update..

Yes, it solved the issue. I'm holding off on updates unless someone can confirm that the QL9 update fixes this issue.
The phone did not pass initial QC and Samsung replaced some internal parts as shown in the attached pic (the main board assembly I assume). I had the phone back in a week with software QI5.

I have the tmobile s8 active and everything is great with the phone until I updated to the January patch. After the update, the camera app no longer works. It will open, black screen, and then crash. I have tried everything I can think of to fix it. Reset, clear cache, factory reset, reflash current patch firmware, and reflash the previous December patch when it was still working. It is just somehow completely broken. The camera hardware is functional because I can use a third party camera app and take pictures. I am already in the process of getting a warranty replacement with tmobile and I am really hoping that I will just get a new phone instead of a refurb. However, this ordeal has soured me on the phone. I really like the active, but I am now worried that it will just randomly stop working and be unfixable. Is there something else I could possibly do? Any thoughts on what could have happened?

A friend of mine received a reply from Samsung telling that they have acknowledged the deep sleep issue, and it will be fixed in the next update (ASC1).
So everyone please be patient, don't return your phone yet ??
ASC3 has just been released for Germany, UK and France!
Edit: its ASC8 not ASC3
This is good news
I've got ASC8 in the UK today with the March security patch. Does ASC1 or ASC3 come after or before?
Before. ASC8 is newer.
so is it fixed now? can you translate that message in english please?
