Motorola‘s efforts to revamp its software support are hitting a snag with its Android 15 rollout. Despite promising faster, long-term updates, the latest OS version is causing widespread glitches, and even the fixes are introducing new problems.
Users of devices like the Edge 50 Fusion are reporting recurring crashes of the stock launcher, rendering basic navigation nearly impossible. Reddit user KausHere described the issue as constant crashes, even in safe mode. While some found temporary relief using third-party launchers, others, like Lenovo forum user ShyamG, experienced their devices reverting to the buggy default launcher.
Motorola’s response was swift, with patches released within weeks. However, these fixes haven’t been without consequences. While the ThinkPhone 25’s main screen crashes were resolved, the Razr+ 2023 now suffers from a new issue: its cover screen is crashing, effectively “bricking” it, according to Android Authority. This flaw severely impacts the Razr+’s core functionality as a foldable device.
The glitches undermine Motorola’s recent efforts to shed its reputation for inconsistent support. Prior to the Edge 50 Neo’s five-year pledge, devices like the Razr Plus (2023) languished on outdated security patches for months. Since September, however, the brand has delivered updates punctually across its lineup—a sign of structural improvement.
While Motorola’s quick response to bugs is positive, the flawed fixes threaten to damage user trust. As one Razr+ user commented, updates that introduce new problems are worse than waiting for stable ones.
In other news, Motorola has launched the Razr+ Paris Hilton Limited Edition in the U.S. for $1,199.99, available exclusively on motorola.com in limited quantities.
