Android 5.1 Lollipop update on Motorola Droid Turbo latest news: Users to be given taste of Lollipop OS

There is no official word on when Motorola Droid Turbo would be getting an Android 5.1 Lollipop bump though Verizon offers a simulator to give owners a glimpse of things to come.

Through their website, Verizon offers an Android 5.1 Lollipop simulator for the Motorola Droid Turbo handset, showing off what the OS update brings and perhaps the closes for now on what owners can get their hands on.

The simulator carries all the new features of the said OS bump, including the features which Verizon has added.

Aside from the simulation proper, the site offers in detail how users can efficiently maximize and use the software to get out the most out of the touted features it carries.

Among them include the ability to change the phone's notification volume (regardless if there is a media file active), easier selection of WiFi or Bluetooth devices (complete with pull-down controls), volume panel settings icons, and preventive measures just in case users accidentally swipe the display.

There will be new alarms and better security measures with the said update. When the phone is to be reset back to its factory settings, owners will have to key in the Google account to which the device is registered, a good feature to prevent the phone from being accessed and used just in case of theft or unauthorized use.

Troubleshooting tips and methods for different kinds of issues and scenarios once the OTA update is released is also available. That includes issues associated with the battery, communication and connectivity among others, a great guide for people who may get lost in the transition to the new OS.

With all that outlined as the Verizon site, the only thing left is when the Android 5.1 Lollipop will be made available. For now, there is no official word on when it will be made available for the Motorola Droid Turbo users.
