[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] TheSt33v:
As of today, you can't go wrong. SU4TL-44 is the latest version. I put that stuff in there about a build number higher than SU4TL-44 to be future-proof.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] doitinthedirt:
Thank you, theyre $99 plus 40 upgrade fee at verizon, do you know if there is a better deal out there? One other q, I dont need an unlocked phone, only root and hotspot bypass. I have used sunshine to unlock my two moto x phones, but only did that in case I accidentally took an ota, but since have not had problems with that after freezing the ota app, is unlocking required to get root and write on the turbo? If I need to I will but just dont have a need right now for unlocked.

Thanks again!
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] ChazzMatt:
Yes, with Verizon's Droid Turbo bootloader needs to be unlocked via Sunshine for FULL root.

And do NOT lock it back. Even if selling it. It's a one time process and can not be unlocked a 2nd time.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] TheSt33v:
$140 is a great deal for this phone. If you're looking for a powerhouse with specs that are still on par with today's flagships, you should definitely get it.

And yes, as was previously mentioned, unlocking is required for anything other than temp root. But for any sort of system write access, unlocking is required. Luckily though, unlocking couldn't be easier thanks to Sunshine.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Jeffy!:
I'm having bluetooth issues that I can't find a solution to. When using my phone to stream bluetooth to my car's head unit, it works great the first time. However the next time I get in my car the audio playback is slow, like the song is only playing at half speed. If I turn off bluetooth and immediately turn it back on, it works perfectly.

I've read a lot of people with similar issues but no solutions yet (I've tried using AwesomePlayer instead of NuPlayer with no success). Any ideas?
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] mrkhigh:
What ROM?
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] doitinthedirt:
I was going to pull the trigger on the ultra but not sure about this talk and data thing HD talk? All my 4g moto phones (razr m, moto x) have always been able to surf while talking without a special hd talk app, do they charge for this? why fix wasnt isnt broken?
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Jeffy!:
Wow, yea that would probably help. I'm currently on nightly 2016-03-28, but this happened on the last stable release and a few other nightlies as well.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Cobra04:
I'm pretty sure my droid dna had working data while on call. Must be a radio limitation.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] mrkhigh:
It is a hardware limitation.

The way I understand it the Verizon turbo has to use a software implementation to overcome it. Which cm does not have.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] TheSt33v:
There's no charge. It works fine on the stock rom, but CM devs haven't been able to get it working on their roms.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] ChazzMatt:
It's a CDMA issue. GSM/HSPA can talk and use data at the same time. Older Verizon phones which had that ability had TWO hardware radios to overcome the CDMA problem. Used one to talk, used the other for data. Not all older phones had two radios, however. Many, many Verizon and Sprint customers could not talk and use data at the same time, while that was never an issue for AT&T and T-mobile with GSM/HSPA.

With VoLTE, it works very much like GSM/HSPA, where you can stay on LTE while talking and using data. LTE as first implemented is very fast, but is data only. With VoLTE, Verizon no longer has to specify manufacturers include TWO radios per phone to overcome CMDA technical limitations. :rolleyes:

For instance, right now on AT&T most phones have to drop down to HSPA (3G) signal when making phone calls as "native" LTE is still data only. (But on HSPA, you can talk and use data simultaneously.) When the AT&T phone call is over, the phone jumps back to LTE.

VoLTE is the attempt to make LTE be more like GSM/HSPA for simultaneous calls and data. All the carriers are implementing it, but arguably it's more crucial for the CDMA carriers like Verizon and Sprint. AT&T and T-mobile don't need it as much.

Right. As the Droid Turbo is Verizon's Quark, there's something in the code of the stock ROM that allows VoLTE, but right now has not been replicated in CM-based ROMs. We have two devs working on it -- official CM dev [MENTION=2228410]Skrilax_CZ[/MENTION] and Resurrection Remix [MENTION=5747496]baybutcher27[/MENTION] -- but neither are Verizon customers and one actually lives in Brazil. They haven't given up, so it's not a closed issue.

But there are tons of Verizon Droid Turbo owners using both CM and Resurrection Remix right now, so it's not a deal breaker for many people. Those custom ROMs have many more features stock ROM does not, which they feel they can't live without. In reality, most people don't talk on the phone and surf the web at the same time time. When I'm on the phone, I'm talking to the person on the phone. ;) For those for whom VoLTE is important, stay on a Verizon stock-based ROM.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] zeeshanbaloch:
wow good
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] cal50:
Just had the time to sit down and unlock & root my turbo. A tip of my hat to the dev's for an awesome job.

Now I look forward to removing all the Verizon crap from my device.

Any opinions or feedback on the Marshmallow based custom ROM's currently available?

I am undecided on what to flash or just wait.

Again thanks for the excellent "how to" guide and now having full control of my device.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] affineer:
Go ahead and flash resurrection remix ROM... So far.. So good.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] TheSt33v:
I stayed with the stock rom for a very long time because I'm very picky about stability, I liked the Moto functions (chop chop flashlight, moto display) and the transition from lollipop to marshmallow isn't as revolutionary as kit kat to lollipop was. I flashed CM 12.1 a few months ago and it just wasn't there yet, in my opinion. However, I flashed Resurrection Remix (CM13 + more features) a week or so ago and I'm never going back. It emulates the Moto functions that I use perfectly, it's super stable and I'm now on the latest and greatest official android version. Really the only trade off is that VoLTE doesn't work, but unless you make a habit of surfing the web while talking to someone, that isn't a big deal.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] cal50:
That's what I was hoping to hear and will flash it.

Any other must have files in addition to the ROM or what exactly did you use with your ROM flash?
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] TheSt33v:
I flashed xposed, PON-3 and the Android-N emojis in addition to the rom. Links to the first two can be found in the OP, and the emojis are here: http://xdaforums.com/nexus-6p/general/android-n-emojis-flashable-zip-t3360836

I am trying to do these steps but I am stuck on firmware downgrade process, when I am trying to install the older version I am getting this message (bootloader) preflash validation failed, (FAILED) remote failure. process itself ends successfully, and when phone boots it still has same firmware, do you have any idea what am I doing wrong?
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] TheSt33v:
There is no firmware downgrade process. If you upgraded to the latest OTA, build SU4TL-49, you're stuck there. See the first few steps of section 0. Specifically section 0 step 3. No one has confirmed that this update patches the unlock exploit yet, but I'd be willing to bet a lot of money that it does.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] oneinwww:
yes it is su4tl-49, so no way I can install twrp now?
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Grynch13:
I assume you already tried to run the sunshine apk and it failed if not just give it a shot it can't hurt to try it.

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elv13:
Hello,

I installed TWRP and is totally destroyed the touchscreen calibration (totally unusable, way, way off + wrong DPI + wrong resolution)

See this video (not from me) around 5:00 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WlHN7XPDvXQ for an identical issue

So the issue is known and just happen. In the video, the guy dial *#*#6223#*#* and it bring a calibration page. However, it doesn't work without a SIM. I currently dropped my provider (it is why I wanted to upgrade to cyanogen, as I stopped getting the updates) and use SIP providers for the phone access (I have Wifi everywhere, including the city one, I don't need 3G/LTE at all). Dialing this number doesn't work with "unregistered network" error.

Any idea how I can re-calibrate the touchscreen?

(btw, the S-Pen work fine)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tbessie:
Any "reminder" app that pushes next reminder forward from when last one was ack'd?

Hey all...

I've been searching a ton, both with Google and in the Play Store, to find a "reminder" app that will "remind" you to do something in a repeating fashion (every 10 minutes, every hour, etc. starting at X'oclock every [day/monday/etc]), but with this proviso. When you are reminded, it waits until you have dismissed the reminder, and repeats the next reminder at a fixed interval from when you dismissed it.

Every single app I've seen out there does repeating reminders by resetting the reminder to the next [interval] from the last reminder time, not from when you dismissed it. This is useless to me, since sometimes I may not get to do the repeatedly-reminded thing (eg. "stretch" or "drink water") for 10 minutes after it reminds me, and if it's a 15-minute interval, it'll remind me again in 5 minutes, not in 15 minutes, for example.

Anyone know of an app that makes this distinction?

- Tim
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Saurav Kanchan:
Life Reminders - Android App on Google Play
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tbessie:
I just took a look at that. Looks promising - only has hour granularity for repeat. Not sure if repeat function repeats on the time unit, or time unit amount after last one marked "Done".

How do you have a repeating alarm where all future alarms are pushed forward by time waited before acknowledging alarm?

Or do you use a single alarm and keep hitting "Sleep"?

- Tim
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Saurav Kanchan:
While creating alarms select the appropriate repeat option.

[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] Totest:
Hello,

since July 2007 I've been testing a lot of cooked and not not cooked (original) ROMs and suddenly, one moth ago, I've not achieved to have a stable device working: hang, black/white screen, stuch on load, etc, etc.

Now, I've cooked the original WM5 ROM (+ SDcorrupted card issue solved) and, I cross my fingers, everything seems to be OK.

That's why I wonder if anyone know if maybe these kind of issiues are due to certain incompabilities of different versions of firmware (Protocol, Bootloader, ROM , OSBuild & Radio). Because we are mixing differents releases of firmware and I don't know if anyone knows if that is right or not.

Any ideas?

Mate 8 camera is good enough for me
[Mate 8 General] drexappeal:
Just got my phone delivered yesterday and with the few pics I've tested so far, it reminded me how hyper-critical reviews can be from the "experts." The reviews have a tendancy to knock down otherwise amazing devices, just because of the reviewer's own personal feel for what a camera "should" be or do, and/or the user interface that might not be what people are used to. Without even having really set up my phone completely yet (save for Contacts and Calendar sync), I absolutely love this phone and the pics I've taken have been great. The image stabilization on this thing is ridiculously good, which is great for someone like me, who doesn't necessarily have the steadiest hands.

Take a look at the night scene on GSMArena. Camera from Mate 8 is one of the best for very fine details, colour rendition, image processing (without halos, sharpening artifacts, smudging etc). Compare it with the best cameras (Samsung Galaxy s6 edge plus, LG G4 etc) and you'll see. I was very impressed and surprised, too. Sorry, I can't post examples /screenshots. Have a nice day !

but mate 8 is more powerfull and way faster
[Mate 8 General] ajsmsg78:
The camera on the Mate 8 is good. It's about on par with my Nexus 6. It's great outdoors and good in most low light situations. The front camera on the Mate 8 is probably one of the best though. Here's a pic of me and the wife taken with the front camera in a restaurant with very dim lighting.

YES! exactly my point! :D

I don´t want to compare mobile phone with DSLR, it is not comparable...... I just told that Mate 8 doing a bad photos, worse than Note 5 even worse than Huawei. I had both phone (+LG V10) before Mate 8 and Note 5 seems to be a best device for me......

And yes I am choosing phone by camera quality :D ..... because I have two small child and I don´t want to carry a heavy DSLR with me everywhere so I am looking a superior camera in smartphone ... thats all

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghostofdavid:
I downloaded the wugfresh tool to try and unlock and root my Nexus 6 used on Verizon but obtained from the Google Play store.

Wugfresh recognizes the device. I have enabled debugging and developer options and have the phone properly set up with the original cable.

When I open wugfresh and after I download the appropriate files, I click on unlock phone and a pop up just says ENCRYPTED.

I tried googling as well as searching this forum and I cannot figure out how to remove encryption without the phone already having been unlocked and reverted back to Lollipop.

Can someone give me a hand? I'm unsure of what to do next.

Thanks!
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zelendel:
All the info you need is in the stickies. Many will tell you not to bother with tool kits. This is due to that you wont know how to fix any issues that may come up. It is always best to learn what you are doing. All you re.ally have to do to un-encrypt is to completely wipe the device. Then you need a kernel that doesnt force the encryption

I checked this sticky - http://xdaforums.com/nexus-6/help/nexus-6-frequently-questions-t3106029

"First off, to best answer the "what is" question, look HERE. Now, whether or not to disable it, is entirely up to you. For the most part, the benefits are dependent on your usage. HERE is a thread discussing encryption on 5.1 so please check it out."

I clicked that link and ended up at http://xdaforums.com/android/software-hacking/fix-fed-patcher-v8-forceencrypt-disable-t3234422

I'm still stuck!
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scryan:
Read the stickies on unlocking your phone manually first.

Be careful that some of the stickies and or threads on rooting ect are old. Before you blindly follow instructions check the date and the version its meant for. If its more then a month or so old, or states a different version of android proceed with causion. Also, make sure you read the last maybe 4 or so pages of the threads if not more, as if the instructions ARE out of date you will see people note it there, and either suggest what changes are necessary or point to newer guides.

You really will help yourself out A LOT to learn the little bit it takes to do it manually. Multiple threads every day from people who have one little thing go wrong with the toolkits, that would be REALLY easy to fix if they knew what they were doing.

First read up on how to unlock, its really really easy... Once your unlocked STAY UNLOCKED, and make sure you keep "allow OEM unlock" on... Do those two things and you can almost definitely fix your phone no matter what you mess up.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lioncat55:
It's been a while since I last did this, and I'm afraid I'm quite confused...

I am running a custom ROM (Bliss Beta 6) but remembered that updating my ROM doesn't update my baseband/modem.

Are baseband and modem the same thing?

https://support.t-mobile.com/docs/DOC-10398

Using this site here I see that my current baseband (G900TUVU1CNK2) is super outdated. It tells me that G900T3UVU1FOG6 or G900TUVS1FOL1 are the latest, but I don't get why there are two. Which one should I install?

All that being said, can I install using TWRP and a zip, or do I need to ODIN it?

Any help would be appreciated, as I said I've done this before but can't find any updated tutorials that explain the questions I'm asking (I've tried searching google and XDA, if I missed something obvious I would appreciate a link!).

cheers
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lioncat55:
More research has helped me answer my own question! Sharing what I've found in case anyone else comes across this thread:

Baseband and Modem are effectively the same thing in this context.

G900T3UVU1FOG6 was released in August 2015 and has the fix for stage-fright.

G900TUVS1FOJ4 was released in November 2015

G900TUVS1FOL1 is pretty much brand new (released in December 2015) so there's not a lot on it. This is the one I'm going to try installing.

Followed the instructions from this thread http://xdaforums.com/tmobile-galaxy-s5/general/compilation-s5-g900t-stock-firmware-t3042400 to figure it out.

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kn00tcn:
i've been wondering this myself, so did you update your baseband & is there any change in battery or signal quality? (or i guess stagefright detector?)

also wondering if downgrading is no problem or if it affects anything like that (which stock samsung or other device kernels/ROMs do, sometimes blocking root etc)
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lioncat55:
Hey, so I actually updated to G900TUVS1FOL1 using ODIN. It nuked everything and installed regular TouchWiz which I wasn't a fan of, but I have no problem installing my own ROM later.

If you're doing the T-Mobile one, then there is no issue with rooting, installing kernels, custom ROMs, etc. I don't really know about "downgrading" the baseband or modem, but I don't think you would need to in this case.

Note that if you have Verizon or At&T you probably want to be SUPER careful, because they lock down everything.
