NOTE: You cannot downgrade to a previous software version after installing this update.
ENHANCEMENTS
This software update is for all DROID TURBO users. After installing the software update you will notice enhancements and changes that include:
| Voice over LTE (VoLTE) | Enables Verizon’s Advanced Calling 1.0 service on 4G LTE networks with XLTE. This includes High Definition (HD) Voice to improve call quality, and video-calling between two Advanced Calling subscribers. You can also upgrade from an active voice call to a video call when both parties have the service enabled. |
| Simultaneous Voice & Data | Enables an active cellular data connection during a voice call so that you can talk and use your data connection (browse the web, etc.) at the same time. |
| Bluetooth | Fixes an issue that could cause the volume setting on a Bluetooth speaker to increase when a phone call interrupts a streaming audio session. |
| VZ Navigator | Fixes an issue that could cause the audio volume of navigation instructions to be low. |
| Visual Voice Mail | Closes a potential security vulnerability. Fixes an issue that prevented audio from playing to a Bluetooth car kit as well as one that could lead to a voicemail indicator when no messages remain on the server. |
| SoftCard | Fixes issues with activation and a connection issue that could occur when Advanced Calling is enabled. |
| Network Experience | Fixes an issue that could prevent proper switching from 3G to 4G LTE. Fixes issues that could trigger a dropped call, prevent a call from going through, show that no service is available or show that a SIM card is not inserted. |
| Charging | Fixes an issue where it could appear that the device was not charging while connected to a charger. |
| Stability | Fixes issues that could cause various applications to crash. Updated firmware fixes scenarios in which the display goes blank, the touch screen could be non-responsive, it appears that the phone is unresponsive or frozen, and an instance that could force a reboot. |
