1. Download and transfer the Android 5.1 OTA update’s .zip file from the link above to your Droid Turbo.
2. Boot your Droid Turbo into recovery mode:
   1. Power off your phone.
   2. Hold “Volume Down + Power” for at-least 3 seconds and then release the buttons. You’ll boot into bootloader mode.

      └ If you’re on stock recovery, you might see an Android with “no command” written on screen. Press and hold “Power button” and then hit the “Volume Up” key to see the stock Android 3e recovery.
3. Select “apply update from sdcard” from the recovery menu. And then select the OTA update zip file that we transferred to your device earlier and flash it.

4. Reboot your phone.

That’s it. Your Droid Turbo should boot with Android 5.1 Lollipop now. Cheers!
