[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] ChazzMatt:
"Spoke with Verizon" usually means customer service on the phone or in a store. Not saying they're the most informed but from his post it's pretty clear where he heard that. He says where he heard it. :p

Yes we do. But wouldn't it still be a nice Christmas present from Big Red.. IF it were true? :rolleyes:

I'm actually 98% happy with Lollipop on my Turbo but there a couple things I really want from MM. I hate the L volume control compared to MM and there is bug between the bluetooth stacks in L and my Garmin Tactix watch that gets fixed with MM.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] radon222:

[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] ChazzMatt:
Another user just contacted me and said he also got an email from Motorola to test software for the XT1254. (He actually lives outside the U.S.)

Has to be Marshmallow, but that's strange it's Motorola doing the soak tests and not Verizon since Motorola delivered Marshmallow to Verizon back in July 2016.

[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Okmed:
I too can confirm this. This is pretty much SOP for Moto. I can't do the test as my phone is unlocked and rooted, has RR on it. Got tired of waiting 1.25 years for an update. Kind of joke at this point

I just wonder how long until I can get a copy of this ROM? I do miss the advanced calling.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] leovalles:
I'm from outside the US and have an unlocked droid turbo on stock lollipop using it with a local carrier, so I have two questions:

1-if verizon releases an OTA update will I still receive it?

2-if I apply the sunshine bootloader unlock method and install a custom rom will I be able to go back to stock and receive the official update?

Here is the answer to your question

https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/answers/prod_answer_detail/a_id/91999/p/1449,8620
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] monza1412:
At this point it should be nice mainly for the new radio file, and for the Verizon volte users.

Other than that I hardly see any benefit with all the plethora of custom Roms out there (of course for the unlocked bootloader users).
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] ChazzMatt:
1) Once released, many, many copies of the new firmware will be available in this forum and other places for you to manually flash if you wish. There's many copies of SUTL-44 and SUTL-49 floating around, and those are the two most recent.

As an example, and only one example, here's a site that has almost EVERY VERSION OF FIRMWARE ever released for ALL Quarks:

http://www.filefactory.com/folder/f9d1880e6c5b4800/?sort=created&order=DESC&show=50

2) You probably won't even have to go back to stock!

[MENTION=7109882]iiWoodstocK[/MENTION] created a TWRP-flashable version of the Brazilian XT1225 which works on the XT1254 and XT1250. I'm sure someone else like CF or [MENTION=7109882]iiWoodstocK[/MENTION] will do the same for any new XT1254 Marshmallow ROM.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] leovalles:
OK, the thing is I'm still stock 'cause as far as I know the only way to unlock the bootloader is applying sunshine, but for us here in Venezuela is very difficult to get US$. (When I said my droid is unlocked meant GSM carrier).

A few days ago I convinced myself on paying sunshinet, so I was about to do it, but today I read all these posts about a possibly marshmallow soak test, so I'm not sure whether to wait or unlock bootloader.

Here $25 is more than a minimum month salary, and there are laws that restrict trading local currency with $$$, so you get the idea...

Enviado desde mi XT1254 mediante Tapatalk
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] monza1412:
If you don't unlock your bootloader now, I mean while you're still in lollipop, official marshmallow is your only upgrade hope. If you're OK with that, then wait for the Verizon release (if any), take the OTA or flash it via adb/fastboot.

Again, take in consideration that there is a 99. 9% chance that the bootloader will not be unlockable after marshmallow.

If you unlock your bootloader now, you can still run your factory ROM, you can also take OTA (if you didn't modify recovery/system partitions) when it becomes available, or you can flash other lollipop, marshmallow and even nougat Roms based on Cm.

The real question you have to ask to yourself is for how long you're planning to keep this phone and if it's worth the $25 investment to keep it up to date (software speaking).
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] leovalles:
Thanks for your clear answer, I plan on keeping it for a long time since it's still a great machine, and at least right now my budget wouldn't allow me to buy a new smartphone with all the features this droid has

[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] 3Dota:
yup ... only the radio that missing from 1225's 6.0.1
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Einsteindks:
If the radio is the only thing different, then that could be grounds for a class action suit. Verizon held onto security updates and put the welfare of its subscribers at risk.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] ChazzMatt:
Radio and Verizon bloatware. :p

That's the only difference from the Brazil, India, Mexico, Chile Marshmallow firmware released for the sibling Quark Moto Turbo/Moto Maxx XT1225 in July 2016.

THAT firmware went through FOUR soak tests starting in March 2015, before it was finally released. So, it was thoroughly tested! So, seriously, the only real difference would be the Verizon radio.

So, guess it took Verizon four more months to CRAM bloatware in! :mad:

[MENTION=7109882]iiWoodstocK[/MENTION] made a TWRP flashable version of the stock Brazilian Marshmallow ROM that has CDMA prop lines added and runs on XT1254 Droid Turbo. Lots of people are running it on their Droid Turbos (using Lollipop Verizon radio).

[ROM][6.0.1][Stock][Odexed]MPG24.107-70.2 Brazilian 6.0.1 for XT1254 [TWRP Flashable]

Stock 6.0.1 MPG24.107-70.2 (Brazil) for Verizon XT1254

http://xdaforums.com/droid-turbo/development/rom-mpg24-107-70-2-brazilian-6-0-1-t3426234

To install that onto your Droid Turbo XT1254, your bootloader must be unlocked and you must have TWRP custom recovery installed. It will use whatever radio that you already have.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] VincentCode88:
LOL It's been a year now and still no marshmallow update available for droid turbo .. such a pity

I almost gave up on this device until i find out about stock brazil rom
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Einsteindks:
Since the only expected differences are radio and updated bloatware (that already is running without incident), to be installed on an essentially identical phone, what the *@#&$ do they need to do a soak test for??!?!!?!? They may as well be catching rainfall 50 miles apart, and need to test both samples to see whether they are made up of water!!
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] quantum tao:
For LTE advanced
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] ChazzMatt:
As we said, radio. ;)

Verizon Lollipop already has LTE Advanced. Motorola gave them the Marshmallow ROM in July. They aren't going to really change anything with LTE Advanced, except to make sure it works with the new radio. And they've had 4 months or more. I'm sure there were test versions also going on same time the XT1225 Marshmallow was being tested, since back in March 2015.

It's not that Verizon is incompetent, it's that they don't care.

I used Verizon back 1999-2001. Never again. They act arrogant like Apple because their customers let them.

With a HSPA/LTE carrier you don't need Advanced LTE.

---------- Post added at 08:43 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:15 AM ----------

They also had to patch all the bootloader unlock exploits (Sunshine) because they're control freak Verizon.

All the other Quarks have bootloader unlock on request. So, it's not necessary at all.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] quantum tao:
[MENTION=3250376]ChazzMatt[/MENTION] I thought LTE advanced was brand new, I just got email from Verizon about it. Also Verizon site says the droid turbo is compatible pending software update https://www.verizonwireless.com/featured/lte-advanced/
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] iiWoodstocK:
LTE Advanced is just Verizon's branding for carrier aggregation. US GSM carriers use it as well. T-Mobile started it in the US with 2 channel CA in 2014 and 4x4 MIMO & 256 QAM d/l & 64 QAM u/l in 2016 (to my understanding, it's kinda like 4 channel CA with extra amplification, to achieve theoretical 300-400 Mbps speeds), and AT&T announced they are deploying 3 channel CA in September 2016.

So yea, your statement doesn't really make any sense since it's not something that's a Verizon/CDMA "special" to get features GSM carriers have (a la Verizon VoLTE to get SVDO back).
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] ChazzMatt:
I figured he was referring to Advanced Calling which is on LTE and seems to be euphemism for VoLTE. I see those terms -- "Advanced Calling"/"VoLTE" -- used interchangeably, whether they should be or not.

So, I was saying VoLTE is not necessary for HSPA/LTE carriers.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] iiWoodstocK:
Advanced Calling = VoLTE, HD Voice

LTE Advanced = carrier aggregation

Surprisingly, Verizon actually stuck with the industry name "LTE Advanced," when speaking about carrier aggregation. Normally they tack on their own name to make everything confusing.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Claps1775:
Time to buy another turbo for safe keeping.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] mustafu:
That's interesting. I'm curious about HD Voice myself and wondering if it works with my Turbo on ATT postpaid. Calls sound fine on Voice over HSPA though lol.

Edit: On ATT HD Voice compatible phones and over LTE only. Still haven't tried to enable band 17 on mine yet.

[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] jlang11:
You know what. i had a total brain fart yesterday. You are absolutely correct. But Id still go with the MAXX if I knew then what I know now.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] ChazzMatt:
Right. Unless you are on Verizon or specifically need CDMA bands or LTE band 13, of all the Quarks (which all have the same hardware, but different radios) the XT1225 is the better phone. In this case, according to your profile, you are in another country, so obviously you are not on Verizon. And I doubt you need CDMA or LTE band 13. ;)

For me, even in the U.S, the XT1225 is the better phone because I am on AT&T network. Has ALL the AT&T LTE bands! And when I visit Brazil, it has their LTE bands, too.

The XT1225 (sold under two model names: Moto Turbo, Moto Maxx depending on which part of the world you buy it) only comes in 64GB, and has more HSPA bands and more LTE bands than the XT1254 Droid Turbo. All the Quarks (XT1250, XT1254, XT1225) share LTE bands 2, 3, 4, 7. But the XT1225 has LTE bands 5 and 17, while the XT1250/XT1254 instead have LTE band 13. So, the XT1225 has more LTE bands you would actually use, plus more HSPA bands.

Also the XT1225 has free bootloader unlocking via Motorola website. No need to pay for Sunshine.

All the Quarks have access to custom Marshmallow ROMs, CM13 and Resurrection Remix. Motorola will issue stock Marshmallow some time this year. The XT1225 is undergoing Marshmallow soak test right now, but there's been custom Marshmallow ROMs available for ALL Quarks for at least six weeks now.

Okay, so these are the steps I had to take to get the OTA to work coming from RR M:

1. Backup all data.

2. Flash 100% stock rom here: http://xdaforums.com/droid-turbo/development/rom-su4tl-44-100-stock-t3320815

3. Flash stock recovery from here: https://mega.nz/#!L1AkQD4T!qoZIlLa-wuUBLMEi_gE574meiHd6Pehb34a-x3Gb-V8

4. Perform factory reset in stock recovery.

5. Take and install OTA as per normal (bootloader will not be re-locked)

After that, you can reinstall TWRP via fastboot, or by using sunshine to obtain temproot and using flashify or TWRP manager.
