How can I disable the startup sound on the Droid Turbo?
This is currently not possible unless you can find a way to root your phone and rooting your phone will void your warranty.
The start-up is on a sound File and disabling it, is usually impossible unless there is and adjustment setting in sounds you might look there but more in likely the sound will stay the same..
Settings >> Sounds Look through the Area..
For my-self I just live with the sound.
Put the phone in silent mode before you shut down the phone.
This doesn't work like it did on previous models. Even in silent mode, the boot sound plays when powering on.
rds24a That's a great question. What happens if you power up the phone and then press the volume down key? SheritaH_VZW Follow us on Twitter@VZWSupport
I was going to suggest doing the Following from the Link I added below to see if Silence Mode would silence the power up but on my Droid Maxx it does not the start up Droid is still present so I'm not really sure there is an option to silence it.
The First Link is for the ( Ultra Droid Maxx and Mini) the Second Link is for the Droid Turbo. the instructions for the two style of phones are the same.. as far as I could tell
Adjusting audio alerts
Pushing the volume buttons does nothing during the startup sound. This is really a problem when you're trying to turn your phone on while others are sleeping. On previous Droids, I could either turn the sound off before turning the phone off (and it would boot up silently) or put my thumb over the speaker if I forgot to turn it off. On this droid, however, the speaker is not effectively covered and the boot sound plays no matter what the sound settings are. It is a pretty common complaint across various discussion boards.
I just *finally* got the Verizon 21.44.8_Quark... Update and when my Turbo Droid rebooted she was muted and that sound was silenced.
Perhaps this issue may be fixed!? I am going to restart her again with a few different volume combinations to be sure. If I do not report back otherwise,please presume this is now a non issue.

Hey sounds good let us know.!
Update: Ah, the sound of silence.
*MUST Mute volume prior to shutdown.
- Volume buttons have no effect if phone was not previously muted.
- Startup/Shutdown vibration remains (Behavior consistent with my previous Droid2 & Droid4).
HTH,
GOOD Deal :smileyhappy: guess this could be considered as a found solution b
Agreed with AdMan and B33: This issue seems to be solved in the latest software update pushed out over the past couple of days. Behavior is now consistent with previous droid where the volume on/off preference at the previous shutdown is honored by the boot sound at startup.
All Moto's are pretty close to having the same features, I just tried the shut Down and my Maxx replicated the above it Vibrated on power up with NO sound which I'll admit is a Nice change b
Hi, all,
I have found the solution. First, make sure your Droid Turbo has the latest device software. Check in your settings for updates. To mute the boot sequence when the Turbo first starts, make sure your device is either in vibrate mode or on silent. Press the power key and when the prompt screen appears, select Power Off. Once the Turbo is powered off, you can press the power key and the device will boot back up with the boot sequence muted. If you try to reboot the Turbo by holding the power key until it restarts, the boot sequence will still have sound, regardless of your sound settings. I found all this out by trying different boot methods. I hope this helps and answers the question. I really love my Droid Turbo.

Great Solution Doc. and Happy New Years.!
