Why don't u use the gift card to buy a case, wireless charger, or portable charger etc. Why pass on free money?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] error666:
I'm not passing on it.. just decided to keep waiting for the VR whenever it ships. I already have all the chargers and cases that I bought elsewhere and for much less than on samsung.com

Not that I really need the second VR but I just don't know what else I can buy for $100 on samsung.com, that might be useful, and not double the price of other online retailers.

Once you're setup on the site, go to delivery manager and set up everything there as well. It should all be there for you if you have a pending shipment.

UPDATE FOR BOUNTY

: By my count (using my Droid Turbo 2 Calculator lol) the count for the bounty is now over $1700.00 and that is only counting those who put an exact amount of what they would be willing to donate. Quite a few others said they would chip in, but didn't leave an amount. Maybe we should all post what we would be willing to chip in. I'm good for $50. I know we have one guy who said he would throw in $500. I can't match that and I don't expect anyone else to either. What an awesome amount! Hope this helps!

*** I will not be updating this thread anymore as I feel it is not going to achieve root. I haven't been contacted by now regarding this and every time I try and post this in an Android General type of thread, it gets shut down bc the mods are busy people. No sense in reaching out to the dev's in other communities to see if they could help when Mods shut them down all the time. That said, I'm probably moving to a new device soon. I wish you all the best of luck on getting this guy rooted. I will still donate my part that I said I would in hopes this gets this rooted.***

I wanted to post this question here as I thought it wouldn't belong in the Q and A section. If it's in the wrong place MOD, please feel free to do your job.

I am willing to put up some cash into a bounty for ANYONE who can successfully root this device. Doesn't need the Bootloader unlocked (although that would be nice). Is anyone willing to participate and donate some $$$ for this project? I have no idea where to start nor do I have the time. But I do have money to spare for a project like this. I'm trying to get the bounty to at least $500. Who's with me?

I thought if we could get this thing going we could post it in XDA General to see if any other Dev from another device would want to take a stab at this.

[Droid Turbo 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jayman94fly:
Willing. Now it would be nice if they (devs) "waited" till 6.0 finally hit the phone to try to gain root or BL unlock but who knows better to have stayed on lollipop I think, yet I updated the update anxiety set in I guess XD
[Droid Turbo 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dsm2173:
what kernel version (3.somtheing) are you at and what security patch, there has apparently been a huge exploit recently patched you may still be able to gain root
[Droid Turbo 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jayman94fly:
March 1st security patch, and kernal version 3.10.84

Would be nice, but could we secure it afterward tho...
[Droid Turbo 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dsm2173:
ok so you should be in the clear (they closed up the potential for exploit in a march 18th patch, and kernel 3.18)

That's not how it works at all. That's just a toggle, it doesn't actively unlock the bootloader.

seriously.. I and others will break at some point and sell this phone for a rootable one. we need to be making an effort to get this noticed.
[Droid Turbo 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nmbenson:
I completely agree, I am very close to selling mine and going back to my MAXX since I have not been able to use any of the apps for root I have became accustomed to. That and the ability to block certain telemetry info sent in the background is invaluable, not to mention tethering (I know the work around). I simply feel like I have moved backward in functionality w/o root, basically crippled in my control of what info apps get from me and what I allow apps to access on my phone.
[Droid Turbo 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scottshebs:
yes sir. if it weren't for my Nexus 6 having an EMMC failure id still be using my phone like I would like to. all I ask is that we update the thread so it's more visible for developers. already have at least a few hundred.

Throwing $500 into the pot, only reason I got this phone was because of the unbreakable screen and ease of replacement. I am going to give it 2 Months and then I am going to another carrier and getting myself the new samsung. POS verizon.

Seriously, this needs to happen... I don't want to still be sitting here on a bloated phone when my next upgrade comes around. Have we seriously not attracted any devs? by my count there's something around a thousand dollars up for grabs here... Granted, this is the internet, and there's not like.... a kickstarter or gofundme up to support this, but whatever...
[Droid Turbo 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scottshebs:
OP starts a bounty thread and never logs on again. sorry. stock forever.
[Droid Turbo 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amateurhack:
Maybe we would have better luck with the Kickstarter.
[Droid Turbo 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TaigaCait:
I think we'd need to see if that's something we could actually do. We technically would need to find developers first, and then set up the campaign to get them paid. Not to mention, the "product" would be free on completion, and would be based on manipulating an existing product (the phone/android os/Verizon bloatloader)
[Droid Turbo 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nmbenson:
I feel you, it does seem like it will be stock forever; I have presently gone back to my MAXX (w/ Cyanogenmod & Exposed) and am in the process of buying the Moto X Pure (missed the $100 off sale) since it has root and basically the same camera (a biggy for me personally). I just couldn't take it anymore, the unsolicited pop ups, the constant telemetry in the background, inability to use Skype over LTE (we use this a lot). My wife is using my T2 to get used to the size in prep for buying the X Pure but that is all it is good for now, a training tool for a former iPhone 5 user.

Good luck all but I'm calling quits on the T2, I will however still honor my promise for bounty if it ever does materialize, if not for anything other than the respect for those who stuck in there for it over the long haul. Hat tip to you all... again Good Luck.
[Droid Turbo 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hypertek:
i think someone could start a new post and note all the names from this thread with the current amount in the title.

its a great phone, good hardware. can only imagine it being much much better with root and developer action. I keep using my old rooted s4 for using casper app (snapchat alternative), even tho my s4 is only wifi no and the main camera is broken..
[Droid Turbo 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Digital DJ:
I guess there always has to be one of you in every thread...
[Droid Turbo 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TaigaCait:
He lives! I do think you should update the main post, though. Put a total of the bounty so far and who's contributing what, and maybe a status thing showing nobody's started yet
[Droid Turbo 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nmbenson:
Just a side note... the Turbo 2 Root Discussion forum hasn't had any headway or comments for that matter since April 10th. Wishing on this forum and stagnation on the other are a recipe for failure IMHO.
[Droid Turbo 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brannonwj:
Call me stupid, but why can't I flash the bootloader from the Moto X Force, and rom (same phone, different software) and make my DT2 a X Force, then bring it back to VZW. If something doesn't happen soon, I'm ditching this phone for a One plus Two
[Droid Turbo 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nmbenson:
You need to have an unlocked bootloader before you can flash another ROM. As the T2 is a Verizon exclusive phone Motorola's site for unlocking the bootloader will not give you the unlock code to unlock said bootloader. Ergo no way to flash another ROM. Motorola points there finger at Verizon and Verizon points their finger at Motorola so the impasse leaves us in limbo indefinitely unless an insider starts selling unlock codes like what happened to the Droid MAXX back in late 2013 (I was lucky enough to get one before he was shut down).
[Droid Turbo 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scottshebs:
and the OP checks the post, reads our comments and does NOTHING. Way to go dude. start a bounty thread and refuse to update the posting title with out sum to attract devs. what a shame that this phone won't even get root. what was the point of starting a bounty thread if you have no intentions of furthering the cause? honestly. what a damn waste.

Possible exploit

Does anyone know if the exploit used on the Verizon HTC 10 to obtain bootloader unlock via sunshine can be extrapolated to the droid turbo 2? I was speculating that the exploit would work on other arm64 devices as well. However, I am not entirely sure how the exploit works. Just to clarify, I am referring to the exploit rootninja is using to obtain BL unlock.
[Droid Turbo 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Digital DJ:
Scott, why are you on the attack? Just please calm down, I'll update it now.
[Droid Turbo 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Digital DJ:
Now onto a more positive point, guys are there any other threads I can post this thread (where it won't be removed) to bring more attention to it? We're up to $1255 pledged donations so I'm thinking someone may be interested in taking a stab at it???

[MENTION=5459276]scottshebs[/MENTION], please do not reply unless you have something of positive value to add. I don't need any negativity or personal attacks.

To all of you, I apologize if I took too long to update the count in this thread. I guess it just didn't occur to me to update the count, so I am sorry. I am a Father, Husband, and a small business owner, so I have a VERY busy life.

I will keep a closer eye on it, and hopefully, we can get this puppy rooted!
[Droid Turbo 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nmbenson:
First off, thank you for updating the first post with totals. Question though, does the total amount include the $500 amount? I am guessing so but couldn't tell explicitly from the update.

Second, the forum here is the where they are looking for root (think tank). It would be wise to post there but please be sure to in-bed the link to this forum via hyperlink.

Lastly, it is also important within XDA forums to keep the discussion going, the continuous posts keep the forum post high on the trending list within XDA for the Turbo 2 (right side of the forum). This also helps with searches within google analytics as well, so as to bring in fresh eyes whom also want root/unlocked BL. Just a suggestion.

Personal update, my wife loves the T2 but hates she cant skype without wifi lol, I am still using my MAXX rooted (cyanogenmod) but dearly miss the awesome 21 megapixel camera SMH. She on the other hand is already dangerously close to filling the phone with pics lol. Anywayz... back to the grindstone.
[Droid Turbo 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Digital DJ:
Yes I don't mind talking about this every single day 500 times a day. I just don't know what to keep saying about it unless somebody volunteers to take a crack at this.

Yes the amount that I tallied up includes the $500 somebody had pledged. I tried reposting this link in the Android General Forum but it was taken down by one of the moderators.
[Droid Turbo 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Digital DJ:
On a side note I have gone back and forth time and time again about getting a new device, one that might be suitable 4 root. But I love the Droid Turbo 2. It has been maybe the best phone I have ever owned. In comparison with other phones on the market hands down this has the best battery life which is something I desperately need more than a great camera and even more than super fast processing power. Don't get me wrong this phone has very fast processing power and a really great camera, but I need better life more than those two things. So yes I have gone back and forth about picking up a new device, but I just have not found one I would like or has what I would consider really great battery life. The phones coming out nowadays seem to have 3000 milliamp batteries or less. I know a lot of people would say the new processors are more conservative in terms of battery usage but so far from some of the reviews and rating on devices like the Galaxy S 7 and the new LG G5 just don't convince me yet.
[Droid Turbo 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Digital DJ:
Well with the pot at $1255 and no one contacting me or anyone else to my knowledge, I'm beginning to lose faith. :(
[Droid Turbo 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mariofan064:
It's only been a day, bro. Give it time. In the end it's just a phone.

When I linked this thread on /r/DroidTurbo, a redditor pointed out that the bounty thread for the original Droid Turbo didn't go well. Infact, when it was finally unlocked and rooted by the Sunshine team they didn't accept the money.

Wait and be patient. Might be weeks, months, a year or 2. The Verizon Gs5 took 3 years to be unlocked.
[Droid Turbo 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dsm2173:
the verizon gs5 had root and safestrap by june (phone went on sale in march) of 2014, nowhere even close to 3 years, but it still took a few months (1.5 from the start of the thread to be exact) and around 18 grand between vzw and att users before an exploit was released
[Droid Turbo 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Digital DJ:
I'm trying my best to check in every other day at least to hopefully keep this thread at the top and alive. I'm wondering if there is somewhere else I could post it to get more interest? I tried the Android General thread, but a mod removed it. Any other ideas?
[Droid Turbo 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mariofan064:
I'd imagine reddit would be your only hope. Try twitter, but other than that you kinda don't have much place to travel.
