1) all custom ROMs have built in tethering. Resurrection Remix (Nougat, Marshmallow), AOKP (Nougat, Marshmallow), Bliss POP (Marshmallow), CM 13 and CM14 unofficial... All of them. Plus the one listed below.

2) If you are a Verizon customer and need Verizon VoLTE and Wi-Fi calling, then this ROM would be best for you:

Computerfreek274_MM_1.0.4 Marshmallow 6.0.1 Stock rooted VOLte Debloated

https://xdaforums.com/droid-turbo/development/computerfreek274mm1-0-android-6-0-1-t3503634

It's a stock-based, debloated, tweaked version of the new Marshmallow firmware. And because it's based on Verizon firmware, it has Verizon VoLTE and Verizon Wi-Fi calling still built in. For people who are NOT Verizon customers, who couldn't care less about Verizon-only features, many of those go for other ROMs which may have more advanced CM-type options. But for you I would recommend that ROM.

3) You shouldn't be seeing that optimization on every reboot. I only see it if I manually clear caches in TWRP to force all my apps to optimize.

CUSTOM ROMS LIST FOR ALL QUARKS

For anyone curious about what custom ROMs are available after unlocking your bootloader and rooting, go here and look at the last post.

[ROMs][Quarks][List for Moto Maxx and Droid Turbo]

https://xdaforums.com/droid-turbo/development/roms-t3347701

[MENTION=6069596]calsurferpunk[/MENTION], who maintains "unofficial" CM ROMs, started the list almost a year ago because a lot of people didn't know about the ROMs available for ALL Quarks in the other Quark forum. (We used to be one forum, they were split in September 2015 before the XT1254 bootloader was unlocked by Sunshine.) I've tried to keep it updated. I only list the current Nougat and Marshmallow ROMs. I'm sure the half dozen custom Lollipop ROMs still work, but they are not being updated.

Root problem

Hi all!

So yesterday I unlocked my bootloader using sunshine, which worked perfectly, I then took the OTA to upgrade to MM - no problems there. Today, I installed TWRP, that worked great, and then I flashed the SuperSU file found in the original post of this thread using TWRP, and it didn't give me any errors or anything, but now my phone is stuck at the "warning bootloader unlocked" screen :(

I was hoping someone could explain to me what went wrong and how I can fix it. Will I have to reflash the OTA? Should I wipe first? And how can I install root without causing this to happen again? Am I using the wrong SuperSU file? I already tried reflashing the SuperSU file but I'm having the same results. Any help would be appreciated!
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] ChazzMatt:
CONGRATULATIONS FOR UNLOCKING YOUR BOOTLOADER PRIOR TO UPDATING TO MARSHMALLOW! You are very smart to do so!

Yes, as you suspected, you are using wrong SuperSu for the Marshmallow OTA.

The SuperSu in this thread (unlocking XT1254 bootloader on Motorola/Verizon Lollipop firmware) is not compatible for initial root of the official Motorola Marshmallow for our Quark phones. Starting with the XT1225 back in July 2016 when Marshmallow was released for that Quark and now the XT1254, we found you have to use older version, SuperSu beta 2.62. Find it attached to this post or

download it from here

.

Download to PC, boot into TWRP, drag file over (works like a flash drive in TWRP), then re-flash the older SuperSu. After flashing that in TWRP, reboot successfully, confirm root.

You can then flash a newer version of SuperSu you have downloaded. Or SuperSu should prompt you to automatically update to newer version.

Then after you fix that, go get rid of the unlocked bootloader warning:

BOOT LOGOS (ADB and TWRP-flashable versions)

Thank you very much for explaining this ChazzMatt, and for the quick reply!

I found and flashed the unSU script by osm0sis (https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=63615067&postcount=2459) while panicking, which worked wonderfully and I was able to boot again, then installed the beta 2.62-3 version of SuperSU as ChazzMatt suggested and it worked perfectly!

Bear with me here - I am a newb...

I have the vzw droid turbo xt1254, su4tl-44, and thanks to sunshine and this thread, unlocked bl, twrp, root, exposed etc - thank you!

I want to update to MM now(my phone is not encrypted).

Since i think it is easier to resolve issue working from stock, I want to back up important stuff from my phone, then restore to factory settings, take any available ota, and then start with the instructions in the op - twrp, root etc...

I think the recommendation is that I flash the full firmware from vzw myself(it was posted earlier) but I would simply prefer going back to stock and taking ota.

Anything I am missing?

If restore to factory settings doesn't remove root, then I won't be able to take ota - do I need to flash stock su4tl-44 first?

Edit: when I installed twrp last year, I selected read only, created a back up and then enabled write in twrp, if I can find that back up, can I just flash that and then take ota?
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] TheSt33v:
1. Remove root using the full unroot option in SuperSU. Remove xposed by flashing the uninstaller posted at the xposed framework thread. Alternatively, restore your 100% stock SU4TL-44 backup. You must have a completely stock, unmodified system partition for OTAs to work.

2. Flash stock SU4TL-44 recovery menu (in the full firmware package here if you need it: https://mega.nz/#!G1ghSADK!cbQKSdeq7Qd4ND-vh5W1kZHPZuBVqMz5fRLhCsiDIO4). All OTAs will fail if TWRP is installed. You can do this in the exact same way that you install TWRP, just use recovery.img from the firmware package instead of TWRP.img.

3. Take all the OTAs until good and marshmallowy

4. To get TWRP back, follow instructions in OP

5. To get root back, flash this version of SuperSU: https://download.chainfire.eu/751/SuperSU/ first, and then flash the newest version (link in OP) directly afterwards. You can flash one after the other. No reboot required.

Hi Am a new droid turbo user but I just updated my version to 6.0.1 how do I root my device
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] ChazzMatt:
Sorry, you don't -- not for the Droid Turbo XT1254. Unless your bootloader was unlocked via Sunshine prior to taking the 6.0.1 OTA update.

On all Moto Quarks (XT1254/XT1225/XT1250), an unlocked bootloader is necessary for root. For the Droid Turbo XT1254 variant, you need Sunshine to crack the bootloader. The

other Quarks -- XT1250 and XT1225 -- can get free code from Motorola to unlock the bootloader, even on Marshmallow

. But Verizon demands Motorola not allow any bootloader unlocking for their Quark, the Droid Turbo XT1254.

And right now, Sunshine only works on Verizon Lollipop firmware for the XT1254 Droid Turbo. And I assume you just updated to 6.0.1 with a locked bootloader? NEVER, NEVER just take an OTA. NEVER. You can always install it manually later if it's safe, after you've researched forums like this.

IF you wanted root on your phone, you would have used this guide to unlock your bootloader BEFORE updating to Marshmallow 6.0.1. Then your bootloader would safely be unlocked forever and you could then root at any time -- even after updating to Marshmallow. Multiple warnings all over this forum to NOT take the Marshmallow OTA until your bootloader is unlocked. Like this, plus 10,000 more:

This one was sort of funny...

i messed something up :((

my phone is working, updated to MM, have twrp installed. installed root as well(beta 2.62, update 2.79).

something i think is wrong with permissions on sdcard folder - i used twrp file manager to access that folder and copy stuff in it, and subfolders.

es file explorer gets root permissions, but can't turn on root explorer, chrome can't download, and the built in file manager(settings/storage/internal storage/explore) can't even open one of the new folders i added with twrp file manager. twrp file manager can still access everything fine.

i have restored a backup, and restored to factory, from inside android - didn't help.

can anyone help me out.

[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] ChazzMatt:
You mean do NOT take the OTA. If you have not unlocked your bootloader prior to 6.0.1.

If they are below SU4TL-44, make very sure any OTA being installed is not for 6.0.1. Better to manually flash to "44" or "49" from file here in this forum, then unlock your bootloader.

---------- Post added at 06:40 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:38 AM ----------

What is XT1285? It's NOT Droid Turbo. Droid Turbo is XT1254. XT1285 is Moto G.

What is "dakordo"?

EDIT: I see you also posted over in the Droid Turbo 2 forum and say you have an XT1585. You are out of luck. Droid Turbo 2 bootloader was never unlocked by Sunshine. You should have bought the OTHER Kinzie, the Moto X Force with the free bootloader unlock from Motorola, instead of the crappy Verizon locked-down version. I assume you are not a Verizon customer and therefore don't need a Verizon phone?

---------- Post added at 06:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:40 AM ----------

Yes, you can re-flash stock factory image, SU4TL-49. While you are at it, have you unlocked your bootloader yet? You can still do it while you are on SU4TL-49...

NEWER TWRP FOR QUARK

Some people do not go to the official Quark TWRP thread over on the other Quark forum and therefore do not realize they are running very old version of TWRP. There's newer versions available with more features, improvements. Latest version is from January 2017. If you've not updated TWRP recently, you don't have the latest, best.

Sorry for noob question, but regardless the build no., can you unlock any phone still on Lollipop? Or is there a Lollipop build that's newer than SUTL-49?
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] ChazzMatt:
There's no Lollipop Verizon firmware higher than "49" for the Droid Turbo XT1254. Sunshine works on SU4TL-44 (October 2015) and SU4TL-49 (May 2016).

There were OLDER versions of Lollipop for the Droid Turbo dating back to July 2015 -- but Sunshine only works on either of those two. Those two were the last two Lollipop firmware versions released by Verizon/Motorola for the Droid Turbo.

It's not just "recovery". Did you rename your TWRP file as "recovery"? Then where's the extension? Please tell us you actually read the guide and enabled your known extensions in Windows. Please.

[ROMs][Quarks][List for Moto Maxx and Droid Turbo]

https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=71000314&postcount=59

Back to names... "Turbo", etc.

THE "global" name for this phone was Moto Maxx. Same way an LG G3 is an LG G3.

But Verizon demanded an "exclusive", so Verizon's variant was name changed to Droid Turbo. But the XT1250 U.S. Moto Maxx has the exact same FCC ID, exact same radio bands and was sold by a dozen U.S. regional CDMA/LTE carriers. (And due to having all the AT&T bands, pretty clear the XT1225 Moto Maxx was originally headed to AT&T.)

The XT1254 is a perfect clone of the XT1250. Stick in a Verizon SIM card and the XT1250 runs on Verizon, because it's the exact same device. Verizon didn't have any exclusivity -- not even in the U.S. -- except the "Droid" name, which they control and really means nothing.

In India, the XT1225 Moto Maxx was re-named Moto Turbo due to a carrier there named Max/Maxx and Motorola didn't want any confusion.

Same way an LG G3 has different radio bands, different FCC IDs due to different carriers/different markets -- that's how the "Moto Maxx" is.

But Motorola really, really messed things up by changing the name due to Verizon's demands and then due to market conditions in India. Think if the LG G3 had 3 different names!

But this is why all custom ROM dev work in CM/LOS based ROMs is categorized either under Quark (the development code name for the series) or under "Moto Maxx" (the REAL name of this series).

Need some help with uninstalling bloatware. Unlocked my Droid Turbo on 6.x and gained root access. So the first thing I wanted to do is remove bloatware. Downloaded Titanium Backup and tried to uninstall some apps...Amazon, Audible, NFL. Titanium says it was successful, but the app icons still remain. When I click on the icon, it says the app has stopped.

Any ideas on why it won't uninstall?
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] nnjimmy59:
Go into Settings/Apps and click disable.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Dabrador:
Already tried that. I tried uninstalling a disabled app and uninstalling an enabled app (bloatware). Neither worked.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] TheSt33v:
When you uninstall via titanium backup, you're only removing the app on the system partition. Any updates that you might have installed exist on the data partition, and those don't get removed. After you remove with TiBu, you should be able to uninstall the app from the app drawer like any other user app.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Dabrador:
Unfortunately, I can't uninstall from the app drawer. It won't work. If I try to uninstall the app (after uninstalling through Titanium), the only option is 'App Info', no option to uninstall.

Have you tried rebooting after uninstalling with tiBu? Also, if you restart TiBu, does the app that you uninstalled come back?

Yes. Still not able to fully delete.

One more thing...even though the app icon is still present, the app itself does not appear in the app list in Titanium Backup.

So the question is how do I get rid of that app/icon?
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] TheSt33v:
So just to be clear, when you:

1. Delete using TiBu

2. Reboot, wipe cache/dalvik in TWRP

The app still does not appear in TiBu, and the app still cannot be deleted from the app drawer?
