Apologies for not realizing the burden I would put on you; I didn't recognize how difficult it would be to read three lines of text and reply yes or no. Anyway the bootloader is locked so I am out of luck. Thanks for taking the time Chaz Matt... Sorry to take you away from banging supermodels or whatever else you were doing Beaups.
[GUIDE] How to unlock your bootloader, install TWRP and gain root access
- Thread starter TheSt33v
- Start date
Every one feel the pain you are in but it is a serious and time taking process (finding exploits and to use them for unlocking). It is so difficult that it took almost a year to find and implement the first exploit to unlock the Droid Turbo...
However,
It is also said that hope sustains the world.
Beaups' frustration is justified. Imagine (or consider, if this is your actual situation) you have a kid with a toy that has a tiny blue light on it, and your kid says to you "Daddy (or mommy), I want the light to be red!" So you take the thing apart, find wiring diagrams, meticulously unsolder the blue light, solder the red light, reassemble it and say "okay kid, there's your red light! Just don't drop it in the water." The kid is happy for a few days, and then sure enough he comes back and says "I dropped it in the water! Can you make the red light come back?" So you disassemble it again, find out what is fried, order a new part, break the new part because you were wrong, order a few more parts, find the right one through trial and error, install it, reassemble the toy and give it to your kid. "There," you say, "the red light is back on, but don't throw it in a fire." A few days pass..."I threw it in a fire! It's all melted now! Can you make the red light come back on?"
Wouldn't you kind of want to smack your kid at this point?

I unlocked using this guide as soon as the update started downloading. Thanks everybody.
I can give you a real-life example...
About 10 years ago, in the corporation where I work (2,000 employees in this particular HQ building, 4000 worldwide), one strain of virulent malware propagated by email was running rampant. (This was back before we off-shored our U.S. IT dept. and actually had lots of guys in the building responding to this crisis.) All the employees were told "DO NOT CLICK ON ANY STRANGE ATTACHMENT IN EMAILS", especially from "co-workers".
The virus/worm was confiscating Outlook contact lists and then sending itself to other employees with the message "Important information! See attachment". Once everyone knew what to look for it was easy to spot -- it was some strange php or js attachment. The email message was the same each time. It's just back then such an attack was NEW and took people by surprise, as the product from our company is such a collaborative effort and you trust coworkers. This wasn't email malware from "strangers", as in the past.
Point is, everyone knew we were in crisis mode. In the early stages, computers were going down left and right, and for our media business (we produce a daily worldwide product, which is very time sensitive) and to communicate with our other branches in other countries or to research/write, we needed our computers. But once employees were informed of the danger and what to look for, that helped matters tremendously.
However, one woman's computer got infected THREE TIMES. The IT workers spent a lot of time getting her computer up and running. Their time was being wasted that could be working on other computers. She was asked "What's going on? Why do you keep clicking on the email attachments?" Her reply, "I just wanted to see what would happen." She got sent home for the day.
Except that the instructions on this thread haven't been updated in a while and I admitted that I screwed said pooch from the get go.... was pretty obvious about basically saying I'm just looking for confirmation that I'm not going to successfully root and just want one of you fine folks to confirm that I am indeed out of luck. I successfully got my answer and will both stop reading a million posts and not Bork my phone.... So thanks a ton... Merry Christmas
Did anyone happen to capture the OTA or are there firmware images posted somewhere? Digitizer went bad on my last Turbo and I won't be buying another.

How'd you know what I was doing btw? You must have hacked my security cameras.
Quickly glanced at the update and it looks like Motorola doesn't like to do the work to patch all of our bugs properly (again). I'll dig around more this weekend, there's a reasonable chance we can get things working.

Good luck getting that melted toy to flash a red light again!
Guys, after flashing CM13.0 whenever I try to make a call my phone reboots? I saw somewhere I need to set the defaults for calling. Any idea where that is?
It's the dialer. Depending on which GAPPs you installed, you may have two dialers now.
For Marshmallow ROMs, Banks Dynamic GAPPS are better than Open GAPPS -- for reasons like that.

CM13 thread discusses it. Here's one I found doing search in the the thread:
So you fixed your radio or APN issues you had earlier?

If that doesn't fix it, reflash your radio/modem.
