Hello all downloaded the file at root junky's last night but the md5 was wrong so I deleted, went back this morning and it was removed. Anyone know why?
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] gqskrub:
Is this what I think it is? The ever-elusive-ETA?
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Character Zero:
I don't think we were meant to see those last night (yes, even though they were in a public part of the site). I think once the video is released with the method the links will go live again. I still wonder what the method is. Those files were .img files but I thought everything had to be signed if it were flashed through a locked bootloader. Just some fun speculation until we have the answer.

I know the root != bootloader unlock but I was wondering about CM12 and 5.1. Anyone know if AOSP had the right files for VoLTE? Now that we have it, its hard to go back to not having it. So if, IF, we had a bootloader unlock to keep VoLTE if we would just have to stick with Stock based ROMs.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] gqskrub:
Just downloaded the file the Sgt posted here: http://motofirmware.center/files/download/1071-xt1254systemblur214412quark-verizonrootedext4img7z/

Unroot

Sorry this is a noob question but is there a way to unroot your phone? I was just chatting with Verizon and they said that you cannot Edge Up if you root your phone. This would really be a deal breaker for me. :(
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] GreaterLesser:
There is an SU manager app in the play store called SuperSU. It has an unroot feature :)

[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Sefirosu:
First of all... why on glob's earth would you want to give Verizon more money by being in Edge? All it does it let you get rid of a phone (months/years before development stops) just to get the shiny new one. It plays with your bliss, which I find to be a cheep marketing ploy to sell more phones when the one you have is perfectly fine. Whats more, Verizon keeps your old phone, cleans it up a bit, and then sells that puppy to another person as "refurbished."

To answer your question, I believe you simply would need to reflash the firmware to rid yourself of root. In the end, doing anything to the phone like root will void the warranty, which is what they are warning you about if you want to be in Edge. Also keep in mind, this phone is just barely getting rooted. I'd imagine unrooting won't be too far behind for people who take their phones back to the store.

Oh forgot there was some apps that can unroot you too. I haven't unrooted with apps before, so I'm not 100% sure how reliable they are.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Nesto4887:
The original post on the first page
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] fernamx1:
OP. Edit 03/25.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Character Zero:
Sometimes root will trip a counter that cannot be reset. In that case an unroot would still leave that evidence. Also, the Edge plan now with them only giving you 25% of the value of the phone, its most likely (and who can predict the phone value at the 18 month mark) that you could be better off to buy it outright and sell yourself.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Sefirosu:
The dude who runs RootJunky said it. He is currently making the video and announced that he and the dev who is working on the root have agreed on a release today.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] jwort93:
The reason is quite simple. For a lot of people it is actually cheaper, because once you have a certain size data line on the more everything share plan, edge users get a $25 discount per line, which completely makes up for the $25/month device payments, AND you don't have to pay the $199 device fee when you upgrade. In essence saving the user $199 for the life of the 2 year contract, and now especially since users on 2 year contracts can't upgrade until exactly 24 months, and if you pay for the full 24 months on edge you still get to keep the phone, edge can be a much better deal.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Ekkoria:
OP updated with a link to the post confirming release today. :)
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] alias747:
Verizon doesn't like to promote it, but you get that same $25/mo discount if you bring your own off-contract phone.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] cerice74:
Is there an easy way to block OTA updates with root using Xposed or another root only app? I think I want to do that right after root gets published.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Tomsgt:
This is taking forever. When today is the release ;) maybe this afternoon? Evening? All I know is I have to get back to work. ;) maybe the first one but closer to the last one. Cryptic enough lol.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] jwort93:
I've was told that by one rep online, but when I went to the store they said they wouldn't give the discount without an edge phone added. I need to look into this again, because I have a line that is no longer on contract, but still paying the full $40/month line charge.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] -Michael_:
Perfect! Thanks to all working on it! You guys rock!
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Flowah:
Hey Tom, was wondering if you knew up to which version of the software this root worked on. I know some updates have been pushed to the Turbos. Are they all susceptible?
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] wifnhzivxllo:
Also, for some of us, $199 or the full cost of a phone is a lot of money to drop at one time. I would much rather pay a little more each month than shell out that much at one time. This is even more true when your significant other wants a new phone every time you get one.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] alias747:
I am doing that with 2 lines right now, save $50/mo ;)

Just log onto your MyVerizon portal and select that line. There is a place in features that you can apply the discount yourself.

Sorry, I stay on topic now... Lol
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Character Zero:
IIRC you can actually do it online for that phone. Its been a few months but there was a button on the page where you can see features and stuff about the phone. Its the Month 2 Month discount.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] tmsrise:
This won't work on lollipop right?
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] GreaterLesser:

[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] the_rooter:
we dont even have lollipop yet so why ask?
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Sefirosu:
Hm, I don't think we'll know until we have root and lollipop comes out.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] tmsrise:
But wont releasing root give out the security flaws for Motorola to patch? I used to be a huge jailbraker of my iPhone and that was the first concern of everyone's mind. If a software is going to be released soon why not wait for it to be released and then release root so its still possible on the newer software(lollipop).
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Tomsgt:
Can't give out any details yet. Sorry.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] GreaterLesser:

[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] GreaterLesser:

[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Harry44:
I've rooted phones and just flash stock back. They never know.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] kitcostantino:
yes, totally *possible* and *plausible* which is why you need to get root and take zero updates until a bl unlock method is found. then, it wont matter, and also there will be rooted OTAs to flash. kind of like the fuse blow on the razr maxx hd, it is pretty hard to undo bl unlock aside from foolishly typing "oem relock" from fastboot.

As far as ETA's, let these guys do their thing. we all want root long before now. letting them finish packaging, testing, and whatever they need to do is reasonable.

Hopefully, bl will not take long. until then, it isnt hard to disable otas, or even do what i do and set update reminders for 23 hours and 59 min from the popup. ;)

if it takes another week, even, (which it wont) root is worth waiting (and paying) for. im broke as crap, but you better believe im scrounging and donating. ;)

hopefully, by the time you go to sleep tonight, you will be rooted. if not, there is always tomorrow. i want it now too, but bugging these guys isnt going to help. ;)
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Coronado is dead:
Well, they can find out if they want to though. The qe 0/0 in the recovery screen changes to qe 1/1 when rooted, and flashing stock only takes it back to qe 0/1. Its set up as an on off switch for (is rooted) / (was rooted in the past) and cannot be reset even with a stock flash. At least that's what it was on past motos.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] JulesJam:
You have to call 611 to get the month to month line discount. Don't bother with the stores, they are commission sales people and all they care about is getting their commission for selling you an Edge phone. I wouldn't be surprised if they knew darn well that you could get a M2M discount but lied to you.

If 611 reps are clueless, call customer retentions.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Artnig:
So true. When I traded in my old droid for the $100 toward the turbo, I didn't even bother flashing back to stock and the Verizon rep didn't even care it had a custom ROM.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] JulesJam:
Really, huh I have never seen that, thanks!

[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] kitcostantino:

[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Droidavie:
This might feel better than donating to charity
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] JulesJam:
Actually, if you are on the More Everything plan with at least 6GB of shared data, it usually is cheaper to be on Edge due to the $25/mo line discount than to do a 2 year contract.

Here is the math based on current prices of 32GB DT:

2 year contract:

$150 subsidized price + $40 upgrade fee + sales tax = $200

Edge:

$550 + sales tax = $585

Line discount $25/mo x 24 mos = $600

$600 - $585 = $15

So if you do the 2 year contract, your OOP is $200 for the DT. If you do Edge and are eligible for the $25/mo line discount, not only is the DT free, you actually come out $15 ahead over the course of 2 years.

Of course if you are off contract, Edge and paying outright for the phone are the same deal since you can get the month to month discount of $25/mo if you are off contract. Edge is just an interest free loan in that situation, which is always a good thing.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] kitcostantino:
