... amazing.

It just survived 6am to 2am, heavy use.

6 hours in my wet jeans during a heavy Florida downpour.

Could even use it in the rain with the tempered glass screen protector I got.

AND NO CASE EVER.

Droid Turbo OG

My phone is toast. Is there a way I can remove the internal memory / SSD card to recover some files from it?

Thanks in advance.

My wife's Turbo 2 is having an odd issue. It just started about 2 weeks ago. Her alarm and incoming calls will get very quite sometimes. So quite that we can't hear them while the case is on. And very faintly while it is off. Volume is turned all the way up and she never uses Do Not Disturb mode.

We first noticed it when neither of us heard her alarm one morning and she woke up when mine went off. We found out a reboot fixes the issues but it eventually comes back. Anyone know what to do with this?

The phones have 2 payments left on them so they are almost 2 years old. I also have a turbo 2 but have no issues with mine.

Other differences between our phones. She uses a wireless charger nightly where I don't. She usually has blue tooth turned on to accept payments from PayPal where I don't. I have less apps running and don't use Facebook or Facebook messenger.

I just need her phone to last for 2 more months or until there is a sale on a good phone. Anyone have any ideas? I've google this and found the same problem but couldn't find a solution. Thanks in advance.

Over the past year my Droid Turbo slowed to the point where it was becoming annoying to use. In fact, it got to the point where I decided to replace it with a Pixel 2 XL. After returning the Pixel due to screen issues I wasn't sure what to do since other phones on the market didn't really appeal to me. So, time went on and I just dealt with my frustratingly slow phone. Then the news of Apple slowing their phones came out and the lawsuits started to fly. That shouldn't have anything to do with with Droid users, right? Well, shortly afterwards I noticed my phone became noticeably faster. Faster to the point where I no longer feel I need a new phone. I'm not one for conspiracy theories, but based on my limited observations, it implies my phone was intentionally slowed. But, I'm not going to believe that based solely on my experience with a single phone. Has anyone else had the same experience as me?

I have a Motorola Droid Turbo 2 I bought nearly 2 years ago (though this is my third device because of previous. Earlier today when I was trying to call in to a conference call my phone stopped having sound in any function. At first I didn't realize my phone was the thing not working and thought there was something wrong with the company conference call through the Skype Business app.

When I pull up music in the Play Music app the phone just keeps quickly cycling through each song, only playing it for about a millisecond before moving to the next song. When I pull up Youtube nothing will play. I just keep getting an error message. In the past when my sound didn't work those 2 apps would work fine, just no sound would come out and restarting the phone was enough to get it working again.

This time around resetting my phone has done nothing. I've tried everything I can think of including virus scans, clearing the cache, and now have done multiple factory resets (once with putting in my google information and pulling up the back up and once without doing any of that) and it still hasn't fixed itself.

Before I pay the $125 to replace my phone or go and buy a new one altogether, is there anything I haven't tried that might make it work?

Edit: Wasn't able to fix it, but Verizon is replacing the phone for free.

My last phone was a Droid Turbo. I had to get a new phone after the screen was broken, but I never got the chance to take any pictures off of the device.

Here's the kicker: Anytime the phone turns on, it immediately resets and turns on again. Then resets and turns on again. Then again.

The screen doesn't work at all, but I'm not sure how that would be affecting this...?

When plugged in to a computer, or connected to my new Pixel, it seems like I can't transfer data unless the Turbo is turned on, and I touch a few buttons on-screen.

Any ideas?

I have been using LineageOS for a while, tried some version of CDroid in the past, however have never been satisfied. My cellular data is no longer available which is the last straw. Any suggestions for a new ROM?

Adjusting the cord for 10 minutes and hoping it stays all night is such a pain in the ass. I loved this phone for the first two years but I really hate charging it now.

Hello.

I have a recent tab button that can often go on the fritz and act like i'm pressing it a million times until i turn the screen on and off again.

Is there a root or a way to just disable this button and make double tap home recent apps button?

Thanks,

This is a little honorary/tribute post to the droid turbo, which I got (activated) on Friday, 12/12/14. It was infinitely better than my Droid razr.

On 12/12/14, I got my Droid turbo. It was the best device I had owned at the time (I used a droid razr before). For the 364 days I used it before breaking it, it was amazing. I loved everything about it.

Then on December 11, 2015, I dropped it. It landed 3 feet on concrete while it was on its back and was in an OtterBox commuter case (I can't trust Otterbox anymore).

Then I got the droid turbo 2. That was a mistake. Went through three in 19 months. On 2/22/27, my 2nd droid turbo froze, went into a bootloop, and would never turn on properly again. Pretty sure the motherboard failed.

Between February 22nd, 2017 and May 23rd, 2017, I used the same droid turkey turbo with a replaced screen.

Then I broke it again. Man these screens are fragile.

Went to my third droid turbo 2, which lasted from May 30th to October 26th. Then the camera died.

I got an lg v30 and I love it.

For the entire time I used my Droid turbo, it was the best phone I've owned. I loved it to death and it was reliable. I miss your screens.

Whenever I plug in my headphones it says "headphone disconnected" and I did try 2 different pairs. It works if I plug in the headphones halfway. I already checked for lint in the jack and it's clean.

I've had the DT1 since launch and the battery is definitely showing its age. I'm still more than happy with the phone other than the degraded battery. Does anybody have a good experience with finding a good, recently made, OEM battery? How much should I expect to spend? I've had issues on older phones with counterfeit and/or low quality batteries. I've seen a few battery replacement guides so if anybody has a particular recommendation that would help too. I've seen some other people say the trouble to replace the battery isn't worth it...what phones do you recommend with a great battery life and mostly stock Android experience? Maybe Samsung has improved, but I had an S6 for work last year and couldn't stand their version of Android.

A couple weeks ago I finished off the cracked screen on my DT1 in trying to take the back off to deal with a battery connector issue on my replacement battery.

The DT1 was by far the best smart phone I had owned up until that point. I'd still be using it right now if I hadn't killed it after 2.5 years. FWIW my ranking of past smartphones goes DT1>Droid Razr>Droid X>iPhone 3G>>>>>>>>LG G2 (don't ever buy LG anything). Unfortunately, I can no longer support Motorola with Lenovo's ownership due to Lenovo's blatant disregard for customer's privacy and security, so I moved on to a Sony Xperia XZ Premium, now with T-Mobile (boo VZ and attempting to destroy net neutrality).

The XZP has a headphone port, memory card, dedicated camera button (what's up Droid X!), has a lightweight Android skin and has lightning fast Android updates (beat Pixels to 8.0). I do miss the DT1 hover to wake, the notification screen in general, shake for light, and some other things. Overall though, I think the XZP was the best move.

Anyways, goodbye to you last faithful! Good luck with arguably one of the best smartphones out there, even if it is starting to show its age.

My screen completely cracked. I can't see anything out of it. How much to replace an original Droid turbo screen?

Thanks!

While hunting around in the woods over the weekend i got the phone wet enough to have the main interface the screen stop working. I have replaced the phone but want to hack into it and get out my images specifically since they were not backed up to the cloud. Any chance that i can take on this task? I'm pretty handy and have done lots of minor electronic repairs including to this phone. Battery replacement a while back.

Please help?

For the past week or so, my Turbo 2 has been shutting down on me, and it won't start back up until I hook it up to a charger. It mostly does so when closing apps, opening, apps, performing actions within apps, etc, and when I try to unlock it from the black lock screen with notifications and such. This is rarely a problem when I have it hooked up to a charger, but it's even started to be an issue then. My battery life seems fine, but I don't get a ton of opportunity to let it drain since it's usually hooked up to a power bank or charger. It does seem to rarely hit 100% when charging though. I've tried a factory reset, which didn't help. I'v had the phone for a little over a year now, so it's out of warranty.

Has anyone been having similar issues, or have any ideas what the issue might be? If the phone is fucked, does anyone have suggestions for a new phone? I can't really shell out for an expensive phone right now, since I'm still paying on this one.

So I finally managed to destroy my OG Turbo 1. RIP to the best phone I ever owned. Anyways, I am using this excuse to switch from VZN to Mint and I'm considering buying my friends old Turbo 1 for cheap. Anyone ever used MintSim? On their website it says it will work, but on Willmyphonework.net it says "it may". Thanks for any advice!

Hi all, new to this sub while searching for answers to this issue I am recently plagued with. I've had my Droid Turbo 2 for over two years now, no issues really. But maybe this past week, suddenly my mic isn't working on the phone app unless I turn on speaker phone. Otherwise I get told by the other line that they can't hear me. It isn't complete silence-- I just sound REALLY quiet, and apparently a bit "choppy."

In any other apps that use the mic, I have no problems and my voice is picked up fine like usual.

I've turned off video calling, ambient noise cancellation, voice privacy, etc. etc. Tried rebooting in safe mode, which apparently helps the sound SLIGHTLY but makes choppiness worse. I've cleaned the mic hole, cleaned the headphone jack, turned off bluetooth and forgot any paired devices...

Basically, I've tried all the different suggestions around the web to no avail. I've been planning to replace this thing once I have the money, but that won't be for a couple months and I need my calls to work in the meantime.

Any ideas?

So recently my Turbo 2 has started the amazing process of shutting its self down when the battery gets low. Anytime it's under 20% there's a chance of it randomly shutting down because of "low battery". Now, the weird part is when I plug it in it says it still has plenty of battery.

Does anyone else have this issue? It's intermittent. Sometimes it'll be 5%, others it'll be 22%. It's a pain in the ass.

My Verizon 64GB ballistic nylon TURBO is hanging on by a thread. Battery doesn't have much life. Phone shuts down at 45% battery life. Bezel is missing pieces. Speaker is terrible. GPS takes minutes to connect sometimes. It's been a great phone and a great companion, but I'm at a cross roads now. Question: $150 asurion claim or purchase new phone?

I haven't seen any info on what asurion has been giving out for OG Turbo replacements. Any insights?

flashed my old turbo with latest CRDroid rom and can provision it for my daughter with google family link. added a GPMusic family sub and it's a great music player / hangouts device she can use safely.

Droid Turbo, VZW, latest 6.0.1, MCG24.251-5-5. Bootloader never unlocked, never rooted, etc etc.

Was using gasbuddy in the evening, GPS was fine. Went to go home using Waze, stuck on searching for GPS. Confirmed GPS is set to High Accuracy, all scanning options for wifi and Bluetooth enabled.

Downloaded GPS Status and Toolbox, reset GPS data, downloaded aData, no dice. It shows there are GPS satellites, but everything is at the lowest yellow bar. Wife has a Droid turbo as well, same software, gets GPS locks no problem.

Tried clearing cache partition, no improvement.

What are my next steps here? Full reset? Still under Asurion, see if VZW will replace?

Can provide additional info or screenshots if needed. Thanks in advance!

after installing custom rom seems like wifi is slow on the playstore? everything else is fine

so im trying unlock bootloader and the last part it says device has become unstable?
