I got brand new droid turbo in Sept. On Nov. 12 I went in to Verizon CB my calls were not showing up, they reset it, with in 2 weeks it was happening again so on Dec. 8 I took it in again, they changed out SIM card within 2 days if I did not reset my phone every 12 hours I was going through 18 new v.m. I didn’t know existed, I missed out on 3 job opportunities during this and calls from my kids schools. I went in yesterday my 2 options were go at least a week without a phone while they sent me a refurbished that if still be paying same amount on after being exasperated with this my other option was to pay off the $400 on the droid and get $80 trade toward another phone that hopefully works.. Not a droid..I’m sad because I am feeling very screwed over and I really did like my droid… I can’t believe these people can sleep at night ?

I was just online with Motorola global tech support and they are exchanging my “lollipop” ruined phone with a “like new” droid turbo for no charge. I am so happy. The next OS is total garbage. Kills my battery and you can’t silence the phone with just the side volume button. Over-engineered. I’ll take a refurb with KitKat all day after lollipop killed the best phone I ever had. Just need to make sure to disable auto OS updates…

I downloaded the 5.1 on my turbo and it is working fine. I use it around 16-20 hours a day non stop. Turbo charging still works perfect, internet is fine. The phone has been better since the update.

I can’t imagine what might be going on with other DROID Turbos, as mine works incredibility well after the 5.1 update. I have no problem with LTE speeds, no battery problems, in fact, battery performance has upticked a bit. It doesn’t get as hot as it did with KitKat either…. I sympathize with others and any problems they may be having, as this is the nicest Android phone I’ve used and I’ve used several over the years. I would say to Moto, bring on 5.1.1 already!

Talking about what’s coming up for Droid , what about what went down for all those who downloaded the new anticipated Lollipop program making their phone a not so sweet item anymore. Now they need to wait til their contract is
up to get a new phone with the features they wanted this time around. Verizon should make good for their failed promises to their customers now that got burned by false promises.
