    Security update came in today.

    Looks like Verizon is giving us O.G. Turbo users another update. 23.21.49.en.US has rolled out to me. It says it's offering improvements in call performance and the latest Android security updates. Of course Verizon's update page doesn't go into any more details. Anyone know what the call...

    October 2015 security update for Droid Turbo

    I didn't see a thread about this anywhere and it kind of came out of the blue for me, when I happened to look at my phone this evening and noticed a strange icons alerting me that a software update had been deferred until I was connected to wifi (and a charger). It was a small download, only...

    Help Auto brightness no longer working.

    Some time between noon and about 4 pm today, the auto brightness on my Turbo decided to quit working. When toggling it, it just goes to minimum brightness and never changes. I've tried going through the drop down quick settings, the main settings menu, even activating it with a third party...

    Software update rolling out: 21.44.12 has VoLTE, widget fix

    Looks like we're getting a software update rolling out in stages. Version is now 21.44.12.en.US. I got it this afternoon and it was about 32 MB. Droid Life is reporting that the fix includes updates to VoLTE calling, but other sources also note it's got a fix for the weather not updating on...

    Help Can't play HD audio tracks?

    I'm generally happy with my Turbo but I keep finding little things that are a step back from my old HTC Droid DNA. One of those is its inability to play "HD" audio tracks that I've copied over from my PC. I've tried playing them in the stock Google Play Music app (which sucks all around)...

    Weak wifi

    Has anyone noticed how weak the wifi reception seems to be on the Turbo? I set up my home network using my Droid DNA as a "reference device", using Wifi Analyzer and was happy with the performance. I have a dual high gain 2.4 GHz antenna setup on my main DSL modem/router combo box that, with...

    Using AT&T or T-Mobile sim in a DNA?

    Has anyone tried using an AT&T or T-mobile sim in your DNA? I've seen several reports that this phone is sold completely unlocked by Verizon, and since it has built in GSM support it should work on both carriers' networks, minus LTE support. I'm interested in checking out AT&T coverage in my...

    Latest software update for DNA (late September/early October rollout)

    Looks like we've gotten another software update. This is upgrading to 4.09.605.5 and seems to be security minded. Looks like it closes a root loophole, does something with Softpay (formerly ISIS) and some sort of wifi indicator tweak. Has anyone gotten it yet? It was about 180 MB and...

    Help Video recorder's audio track is out of phase

    I've been experimenting with taking video using some third party apps on my phone lately, and have run across a problem. It appears the third party camera apps (A Better Camera, Google Camera) only record audio for videos in mono. And it's not only mono, but barely audible. I did some...

    Roaming in VZW territory?

    I was at my local supermarket this afternoon, and Verizon's signal has always been terrible there. They don't have a tower anywhere nearby, and the store is next to a small but busy airport so the ability to add more cell towers is somewhat limited. The few that exist are barely over the tree...

    What's the shortest battery life you've gotten?

    We've spent a great amount of time optimizing our DNAs to maximize the rather small battery that's in the device, but I want to go the opposite route and ask who has gotten incredibly short run times from their devices? For me, it seems my driving setup is ideal for killing the battery in...

    Help DNA goes into partial sleep when screen is off

    A while back in one of the other threads on here I mentioned that my wifi and mobile data seem to go off when the phone's been idle for a while. It's especially bad after about 8 pm or when the battery is below ~75%. This sounds like something a battery extending program might do, but I don't...

    Can't turn DNA on while charging?

    OK, this is a weird one. I've noticed that I can't always turn my DNA on while it's charging. I have to unplug the USB cable then turn it on, then plug it back up. Is anyone else experiencing this, and is this just one of those odd 'HTC quirks' I'll get used to? What's happening when I...

    Hello Hello

    Hi, I'm CrackedLCD and I own an HTC Droid DNA, the flawed but cool phone from Verizon. I've been a browser for a while on these forums and finally decided to join so I can participate in the threads. I live in LA (Lower Alabama) near the coast and am still glowing happy over my first taste...
