OK, So I am a little upset by it all, but I just bought the phone a month ago and now I am going to be without it for 2 out of the 5 weeks of ownership. Maybe its not the RMA process, but that I am having to go through it so soon and twice at that.
[X 2014 General] Paddington:
I do agree that is a PITA. I bought mine used and did not have this experience. It's funny you say you liked the 2013, because I actually very much disliked the 2013 and could not be happier with my 2014.

I'm not quite following the modified software thing. They sent you a phone with a locked bootloader but was not all the way stock? I found that either a) AirWatch does not look for whether the bootloader is locked/unlocked, or b) my firm did not include that in the AirWatch policies or whatever. I unlocked my bootloader, installed TWRP, and rooted, and my phone showed up as compromised. I returned to pure stock with stock recovery, but kept my bootloader unlocked, and had no problems clearing AirWatch. I've heard the same from others on XDA. But I find it weird that Moto would ship out a phone that had compromised software. Even if it was one someone else returned, you would think it would be standard policy to ensure it is completely wiped and returned to full on factory stock condition.
[X 2014 General] JulesJam:
I would return it again. This is Moto's fault for having these flags in the first place.
[X 2014 General] scottricketts:
Yeah, shipping it locked is not a surprise, showing up in Airwatch as compromised when it's still stock recovery, locked, and non rooted? That's odd.
[X 2014 General] JulesJam:
There is a root checker on Motorola phones since I think ICS days. If a device has never been rooted it's status is 0/0, if it is currently rooted it is 1/1 and if it was rooted and unrooted it is 0/1. If it is either of the latter 2, it will show as modified software in bootloader mode.

---------- Post added at 01:12 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:11 AM ----------

No it's not, it means it has been rooted in the past.
[X 2014 General] Paddington:
Did you try running a root checker app to see if the phone is currently rooted? Because my device was rooted, but reflashing a stock unrooted system made my phone go from compromised to compliant on our AirWatch system. And our AirWatch policies are pretty strict, because they have to meet the security tests of our clients with the strictest security policies, and we are a big law firm that represents most of the Fortune 100 and nearly (or every) major bank.

Although I do agree with your initial stance that there is really no excuse for them to ship you a pre-rooted phone without you requesting it. In the past, that would have saved me 10 minutes, but now, it would be a hassle.
[X 2014 General] JulesJam:
I did it with my N6. I know the phone is unrooted as I flashed a stock system image. In the bootloader mode, it still says software is modified.

This is well known to be how it works with Motorola phones.

His phone wasn't pre-rooted - it had been rooted in the past and that then creates the 0/1 state.
[X 2014 General] Paddington:
So I just tried this out. I booted into fastboot and it says my device is UNLOCKED, and then it says:

"Status Code: 3"

"Software Status: Official"

I unlocked this phone, flashed TWRP, and rooted it. I screwed around with it, downloaded a few root apps (busybox, rootbrowser, quick boot), then saw it was listed as compromised on AirWatch. I used a toolkit to do a full wipe and revert back to stock, unrooted 4.4.4 and factory recovery. I then upgraded to 5.0 through the OTA. I never relocked the bootloader. My device showed up as compliant when I redownloaded AirWatch.

And I still agree with the original premise that Motorola should have made sure this didn't happen originally--which is why they are going to fix it--but I'm not understanding why he can't get around this the same way I did. I'm not understanding why he is showing up as a modified software while I am not.
[X 2014 General] JulesJam:
Hmm, that is not what is happening with my N6 or on the Droid Turbo forums for those who are using MoFo. For us, once we root, that is it, even unrooting, flashing back to stock doesn't reset that root check flag.
[X 2014 General] Paddington:
If it was just Droid Turbo, I'd guess it has to do with the MoFo exploit and the fact that it is not supposed to be unlocked and rooted. And by "not supposed to be," I of course mean in the eyes of Verizon, because it is ridiculous that a company will not let you unlock your bootloader on a $600 phone once you've fully paid it off. But that is beside the point. The fact that it is also happening with your Nexus 6 pretty much defeats my theory that it is MoFo causing it.

Could it be that when I updated through a true OTA, like went to Settings > About Phone > Updates, it reset this counter? Or, ignoring the counter for a moment, that the true OTA update re-established my system as being 100% unmodified stock--"Software Status: Official"? Troubleshooting based on recent experiences without the ability to test my hypotheses (it is my work phone ,after all) is driving me nuts.
[X 2014 General] JulesJam:
I just flashed my N6 back to total stock using factory images and relocked it. Software status says modified and bootloader status is status code 2 locked (which means relocked). And AFAIK, this is what everyone's experience on a Motorola phone is:

Locked Status Code 0 = never been unlocked before by the fastboot oem unlock command

Unlocked Status Code 1 = unlocked in its original factory state and never been locked before*

Locked Status Code 2 = locked but has been unlocked before

Unlocked Status Code 3 = currently unlocked

*You can't buy a phone in the Status Code 1 Unlocked state in the US. You can buy them off of Tao Bao and they are referred to as "factory" devices. They are "removed" from the Chinese factory before they are locked. However, I would not do that as I am not sure if they are on the global blacklist or not.

The Software state can be any of the following:

qe 0/0 = never been rooted

qe 1/1 = currently rooted

qe 0/1 = not currently rooted but rooted at some point in the past

States qe 1/1 and qe 0/1 will show the Software status as modified IME. So Software Modified means modified currently or at some point in the past.

I previously had a N910F and it had an EFS backup from factory. I now have N910C and it does not have EFS backup on the phone. I tried creating a backup, but it says, "Not yet implemented" . So could this be an EXYNOS thing?

Hi,

I've tried 3 roms so far with the Wizard and they don't seem to have the option ' this is a hidden network ' in the WiFI settings.

Do someone has any idea about how to fix that ?

As my WiFI network at work is hidden, it's quite a problem

Thank you
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] Eximius:
It dont have to be a problem

I have a hidden network and it works perfect... how?

Settings -> connections --> WiFi --> Add new --> fill in the credentials for your network and it will show up in the Configure Wireless Networks page :)

Thats all
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] kaltera:
My bad, I had a complete false vision about what hidden network means :)

You just have to know the ssid and it shows up, I think it must be an internal problems because I have 3 different HTC and it was not working just for the wizard.

The only difference between those 3 is that in the wizard the option " this is a hiddent network " is not available. I then thought that the problem was due to this :)

Anyway , solved
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] da_jojo:
with windows vista it is not a good idea to hide the network as it will cause problems..

with xp this seems also the case when u experience disconnections at certain intervals
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] GoldStig23:
Has anyone noticed this on their Edge? I'm running the latest software release including the OTA. On my previous phone the GS4, I never had the same issue with WiFi calling and this type of drain in the same location.

So far, I've tried turning off VoLTE, but I'll need a few days to see if it makes a difference. Any one else have other suggestions?

Turning off WiFI fixes the issue. This is what you should do: Turn off wifi, fully charge phone, restart.

Thanks, I'll give that a try. It should be a permanent fix correct? Hopefully there's a software update soon.

I am okay with this and think it will just get better as the phone settles in.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] gravi2:
I guess you knew this question was coming :) . Can the people with Off contract Verizon s6 edge try to see if their phone works with other providers e.g AT&T ? I have heard/read that previous verizon phones like NOTE 3/4 worked on AT&T, but the LTE DATA was not supported. It only did HSPA+.

I know I will need to get the Verizon full price i.e off contract phone. If it does then s6 edge 64GB, turns out to be $115 cheaper compared to buying it from other places.

Anyone ?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] osmosizzz:
Most times Verizon phones won't get lte on att. Just hspa+
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] omf05:
As poster above said.

Almost all Verizon phones will not get LTE with AT&T or T-mobile.

And didn't Sprint or T-mobile have the cheapest at full price?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] justda:
I used a Verizon s4 and a Verizon note 2 on T mobile for over a year.

Verizon phones will work perfectly fine with GSM carriers, they have and utilize the GSM LTE bands just fine. In the beginning I had connection issues but Verizon radio updates opened it all up within a month or so of the LTE bands being opened for GSM use.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] Carloskeee:
i just got rid of my Verizon Droid Turbo, which i was using with at&t, and it got LTE.

all newer Verizon phones are GSM unlocked. by newer i say like 2013+ i believe.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] RaptorMD:
True, but AT&T's HSDPA+ is often times faster than Verizon's LTE at least in my market.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] Gatortribe:
The only reason I decided to upgrade instead of holding off for later phones was the Netflix deal. However, there are only 92,000 submissions for it allowed, and with so many in circulation already, I need it quickly. I got the tracking number (chose overnight shipping, may have been a waste if I can't get it early) and UPS says scheduled for today, but only that the order has been processed. I got a text from T-Mobile saying "For all pre-orders your tracking number will not be visible on UPS.com prior to launch date", although I can already view it. Was I too late to the party? This is what T-Mobile says but if the text was right, I'll just cancel the order and hopefully be able to use my Jump later.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] jonathan650:
I ordered mine on Sunday and got it delivered yesterday. If UPS.com says it's on its way, it is.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] Gatortribe:
I'll just hope for the best and assume UPS isn't updating the tracker. T-Mo finally sent a shipped email a couple minutes ago. So much conflicting information. I just want my Edge!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] jonathan650:
I was in the same boat. All the info that T-mobile was giving me suggested the phone had already shipped, but no tracking number was given. I went to UPS.com and signed up for MY CHOICE and they gave me all the details for my order, even and approximate delivery time instead of their 8 hour window.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] stackz07:
Is the note 4 still not rooted? Sorry, I made a HUGE mistake switching from a s4 to a ip6. Now I'm looking to switch back. I got the iphone 6 because my s4 had loki , but then my insurance replacement did not have that exploit available. So to say the least I am not up to speed on roots but I didn't know there were still phones out that in the wild unrooted.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] brholt6:
I don't believe it has root...I checked the bounty thread and it looked pretty active still. I'm jumping from the M8 so I'm not 100% sure on Samsung devices but I'm fairly certain they're really locked down on Verizon. I guess I'm just trying to not get my hopes up in case it doesn't happen with the VZW S6 but I've definitely got my fingers crossed!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] mamba94:
I think the edge will be a completely different beast. With all the attention it's getting, I think a lot people will be getting this device which only increases the odds of getting root. Just my opinion though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] stackz07:
That is what I am thinking as well. Then the question is - how much use can be squeezed out of the "edges" from the rom developers?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] brholt6:
I would love root, don't get me wrong. I'm just not getting my hopes up because of the history with Samsung and Verizon. Let's keep our fingers crossed and if need be, get a bounty thread going once we start getting devices (if the current root method doesn't work with VZW).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] gypsy214:
I don't know if it will have root... The Note 3 lost root ever since updated to 4.4.4 with a new exploid Verizon did with kernel + bootloader and it hasnt been able to root.. I figure same would be for Note 4 on Verizon... S6 or S6E would be the same or worst... Plus I don't know if there will be any development support since this S6/S6E have Samsung's Exynos processor (Not open source).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] TechBSwift:
The current method to root the s6 involves cf root which requires an unlocked bootloader... meaning chances that it will work in Verizon/AT&T is little to none. Let's hope that an exploit is found that will allow root

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] krazy_smokezalot:
Yeah I think those are for the dev editions.

But if we can get root some how.

All we need is root I think if I'm not mistaken hsbadr as a similar work around to safestrap and MORE I think it was mentioned in one of his Jasmine threads if forgot will post link when I find it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] Lock-N-Load:
If we don't get root, and the devs around here don't find a way to expand on the limited Edge functions, then the Edge is a total gimmick. The Edge does not have separate screens for the edges like the Note. The S6 edge just has curved glass/screen. You can only use 1 edge at a time (you select left or right) - which is absurd for a dual edged phone. And you can only do about 4 basic things with it most Launchers have been able to do for years. So I pray it gets expanded on as right now... a clock, a news feed, basic notifications, 5 people/contacts, and ring colors for those 5 people/contacts is hardly that cool. For example, people/contact on 1 edge and say an app launcher on the other edge.

I'm noticing that whenever I make a voice call while tethering, it kills my tethering. I've also noticed that when I'm not tethering and I make a phone call, my signal goes from 4G LTE to 1X. I assume these issues are related.

Anyone have a solution?
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Q&A, Help & Troublesh] GSUS969:

[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Q&A, Help & Troublesh] Flowah:
Maybe? The thought crossed my mind.

However, I never activated "advanced calling" either through vzw.com or on my phone. In fact, looking at the option on my phone, it's just completely greyed out. Can't select or unselect it.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Q&A, Help & Troublesh] frozenbear:
To simultaneously be on a call and use data you must activate advanced calling. This phone cannot activate more than one antenna at once, so when you call it calls over the 1X signal and has to disconnect from the 4G you're using to tether. If you activate advanced calling it will call over 4G, and therefore allow you to use data as well. It's kind of stupid, but since they got advanced calling fixed it's not so bad.

1.7 -2 GIGs of free RAM for Tasking etc.

I think " upgrading" to Lollipop on many Devices could create more problems than it solves - right ?

And the supposed Wifi Calling and VoLTE are not going to work

because they are Carrier Specific Software which must come directly from your Service Provider.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] jaseman:
Free RAM is UNUSED/WASTED RAM! Understand? The more software/applications that are pushed into RAM the better because it is available to do whatever it needs to do without having to go and search for it and place into RAM! If and when you need more RAM for something new, say like opening another application...then Android will move out of RAM whatever is not being used and replace it with the new software. If your phone had 10GB of RAM it would still look nearly full. This is a GOOD thing. It's all still available for use when needed. Remember that RAM is always the fastest part of your phone. Of course the more RAM you have the more applications you can have open at any one time without any lag/stutter. But for now 3GB of RAM is quite good for a cell phone on Android.

Come on... I have Galaxy S4 now (going for S6 today). The S4 comes with 1.8GB usable memory but when it reaches arount 1.5 GB it starts lagging, and by lagging I mean a lot! The fact is that when the device has less RAM it gets laggy and it works better when it has more free memory.

Anyway the higher memory usage is probably of how Lollipop works - it preloads the entire app in the RAM instead of loading it from the flash. It is meant to speed up loading but it takes more memory and I can argue for the effect.
