Droid Razr M SD Card Damaged?

I have owned my Razr M for (almost) a year, and within the last month I kept getting notifications saying my SD card has been "unmounted", when I have not touched the SD card. Within the last week, I am now getting an icon that says my SD card is damaged and needs reformatting. I also noticed that one of my camera folders is missing all the photos.
When I tap on the SD card error notification, it says all the data on my SD card will be deleted if I reformat. Is there any way I can retrieve these "missing" photos (approx. 190 of them) without having to delete everything on my card?
I have already powered the phone down, and removed the SD card and reinserted. I also went through a recent system update, not sure if this has anything to do with it?

Hi there -
When i go to Settings>Storage> and scroll to the SD card, it doesn't show
how much storage is available and doesn't allow me to click on anything to
check. The only options it gives me are "Mount SD Card", "Erase SD card".
Should I take my phone into a Verizon store to have them take a look at
what the issue is? Thanks for your help.

DROID RAZRs Receiving "Sim Card Authorization Error"

Received this today on top of other issues. Seems I have a "SIMS issue. Anyone else? I yet have called verizon on this. What's next.
Matt

I've seen that when there's problems with the 4G in your area. It was too common a month or so ago, but not lately. For me, what fixed it was to turn the phone off then back on. To prevent it, I just put the phone in CDMA only until the problems stopped. To turn off 4G, go to Settings>Mobile Networks>Network Mode and select CDMA only.
It's possible there's a problem with your SIM card, but most all the time I've heard of this, that is not the problem.

How can I use an unlocked Droid Razr M with another company's sim card?

How do you use another company's sim card in an unlocked Droid Razr M? I tried the phone in both Global and GSM mode, but both say unknown sim card, and cannot find a network.

External MicroSD card not seating correctly in Droid RAZR HD

Hi. Got my new Droid RAZR HD yesterday and got it activated without incident. (Thank you Verizon.) However when I attempted to insert a micro SD card in the slot, it would not seat properly. For most of the micro SD readers I've used in the past, when you insert a micro SD card into a slot, it usually "clicks" into place. But not in my Razr. It doesn't stay in the slot. I have to press my finger over the cover in order for my phone to access it. If I remove my finger, the phone gives a "sd card unexpected removed" notification.
Anyone else have this problem? Maybe I need to buy a new sd card or something.

It should have a Spring Mechanism in the Maxx HD to catch it) Try using the Sim Tool pick to Gently push it in Or get a Round Toothpick Cut it to a Blunt Edge and as i mentioned push it in Gently) Make the sure that you have it going in the Correct Way. b33

Type of SIM card in Droid Razr

Is the SIM card in the Droid Razr a traditional SIM or a "micro SIM" or a "Nano" SIM card?

Micro-SIM

Droid RAZR SIM card

Can you tell me where I can get an SIM card for the Droid Razr. I ordered one from amazon and it didn't come with a SIM card. I would greatly appreciate any help.

SIM cards are free at your local Corporate Verizon store, or you can order one via Customer Service.

Using a motorola droid razr . i do not have a provider , nor a sim card. just wifi at home.

I am a new to most all of this.
Had A+ training 15years ago.
What recommendations.... I'm ready to jump.
( 1st I like to load new OS on this Droid)
Thank you, DOZER

hello dozer, sorry your question doesn't seem to be related to firefox in particular, so probably we won't be able to help much. if you need help flashing an OS onto the phone rather try a specialised forum like http://forum.xda-developers.com/droid-razr.
<br>thank you for your understanding!

Droid Razr M Sound Problems

I got my Droid Razr M a couple months back. After the Jelly Bean update I notice that I do not get sound when I am calling/talking over the phone. No ringing, no audio, nothing. However, people on the other end of the line can hear me. I then tried to play a random Youtube video to see if that played sound, and nothing. I tried plugging in head phones and that worked. Did the same thing with calling, head phones worked but the phone ear piece gave no audio. Having the call on speaker works as well though.
So basically I have no audio from calls, games, movies, songs from the phones speakers but I get it through the head phones. I factory reset, removed the sd card and cleared it, and it still gives me this problem. Any suggestions?
Thanks.

Hello Xcdhrider
The issues you described would be very frustrating! That's not a known issue that I've encountered after the update. I'm sure we can work together and get this addressed!
Was the device exposed to any physical or liquid damage? After the factory reset did any 3rd party applications redownload on the device? Please power the device in safe mode and retest. Here's how: http://support.verizonwireless.com/clc/devices/knowledge_base.html?id=63868&sayt=safe mode *
Please let me know if the issue persists.

Droid Razr Maxx stuck in boot loop

A few days ago my droid razr max essentially died . I went to my local Verizon and purchased a new device but I have
been unable to recover all of the photos and other data from the old device. I've somehow managed to get the device to turn on but it is now stuck booting and will not load past the red eye. I am wondering if there is anything that I can do to get out of the boot loop without deleting or damaging the file saved to the device.

Chela2004,
Thank you for reaching out to us. I am sorry to hear that you are having trouble with your device not starting. We certainly want you to be able to retain the information on the phone. What exact information are you looking to extract? If you had an sd card in the old phone, pictures should be saved on their. As for contacts, those would either be saved with your google account you had with the phone, or with our application Backup Assistant plus. You can try to run the phone in safe mode to bypass the red eye screen http://vz.to/159K41E. Please fill us in on how this works and what you are needing to move from phone to phone.
Thank you,

Droid RAZR (not MAXX) 4G, service drops on GB and ICS

Okay, the forums are full of threads concerning this issue. The phone loses data connectivity as well as voice. Every person seems to have a different opinion as to when or where their service drops, and I have tried to find a fix (official or not) since I first got my RAZR.
I got my phone sometime in March 2012 from a Verizon store during a promotion. I was happy I can get a phone with better hardware than my DROID X (awesome phone-best I ever had). I didn't care much about the 4G, but I considered it a perk for upgrading.
1. A day later I started having problems with my service. The 4G connection would drop, the 4G icon would turn white and then disappear for good. The phone would have no data connection at all but a few seconds later the white 4G icon would reappear and turn blue later. I thought it is because the 4G coverage is spotty as I was constantly moving from one place to another. But I got home (where I never had problems and Verizon service was always excellent) and it would do the same thing.
2. I have data connectivity and voice service but I turn off the screen. When I turn the screen back on, data connection is lost and I have no service available. I had one error that said "SIM card invalid" or something like that a few times. On Gingerbread I just switched to 3G only and I had no problems. But every time I switched back to use the LTE, I had the same problem over and over.
3. Upgraded to ICS as I figured Motorola and Verizon worked together to find a "cure" for these sudden service losses. I was wrong. With ICS it is even worse. I lose data and voice service very often. In store, Verizon employees are telling me they have never seen problems like mine (liars?). On the phone with CS I am told they do not know of any issues similar to mine. But forums are full of threads of people having the same issue. Answers from VZ employees are not very clear and directs people to a simple Factory Reset, cleaning the SIM card, reinserting the SIM card... basic stuff a monkey could think of too.
4. Some times after a phone conversation, I hang up and immediately after, my service drops. I have to turn the screen off and then back on after about 5 seconds, the service is still nowhere to be seen, but if I leave the screen on for about 10 seconds, the phone will regain its connectivity to the network. THIS HAPPENS IN 3G COVERAGE AS WELL AS 4G NOW.
Steps taken: Downloaded the Motorola app to Restore Connectivity - did not work, I still have the problem.
                    Carefully cleaned the SIM card surface making sure there is no static electricity discharge - did not work, I still have the problem.
                    Factory reset numerous times - did not work, I still have the problem.
                    Removed and reinserted the SIM card - did not work, I still have the problem.
                    Updated to ICS hoping that would solve the problem - did not work, I still have the problem.
                    Anything I do I still have the problem.
So please tell me, Does VZ publicly acknowledges there is a problem with DROID RAZR? If yes why do some people inside VZ deny any issues with it while others don't. Aren't they trained or aren't they reading the same training material the others do? Besides that I am not aware of Motorola or VZ taking any responsibility in trying to fix this.Is there a fix in the works? Please if there is any help for people like me, with the same problem, I think VZ should email owners with solutions. REAL SOLUTIONS because it is possible. I receive newsletters for new phones and plans but none to suggest a fix to issues.
And factory reset after factory reset is not working out for me as I use my phone not to txt my friends or send funny pictures of my dog to my neighbor but for business. This is really affecting and annoying me. And yes, I could switch to an iPhone but Android provides me with a great deal of options in my line of work that iPhone does not have. And yes, I could switch to another Android based phone, but I paid for this one and I want to use what I paid money for.
Again... final question is: Is there a fix, a software fix (I think this has to do with software) for this?
Thank you!

I had EXACTLY ALL of the same issues (plus some Bluetooth issues):
Got my phone in January or February
First instance of this happened about the middle of June (or maybe the third week) for several days before I finally called, believing it was a "hiccup" in the network (still on GB)
Customer Service did some troubleshooting, placed it in "safe mode" to see if it might be an app causing it, factory reset, etc., etc., etc.......
VZ put in a network trouble ticket which seemed to solve the issue (although I don't really know what may have been done) for about a week (now I know that this was a mere coincidence)
About a week or two later (still on GB) it started again; this was maybe a Wednesday
CS troubleshooting, another trouble ticket, etc., etc., and then I finally did a factory reset myself
Friday night (maybe Saturday) ICS is out, and downloaded believing it would fix it.
The problem was resolved briefly (several hours, maybe a full day) and then began again with a vengance
Called, went through all the same humbug, did a couple (or a few) factory resets, and I too, had the "invalid SIM" error show up on the screen out of nowhere ........
Customer Service had me to go to my local Verizon store and get a new SIM (they thought that might possibly be the problem). Got the replacement, and it worked, again, only briefly; just a few short hours later, it was right back to the same old thing........more phone calls
trouble ticket is still out.......
Was even told by the advance tech support person that on several phones with this very same problem, that he actually saw this resolved by simply creating a different, brand new Google account (instead of the Verizon customer's original Google account) during setup, after a factory reset (don't ask me how......). Gladly, this is one step that I didn't take (that's all I need is one more email account!)
Finally, it was determined that it MUST be the device. I really didn't want another phone as I always keep my phones in pristine condition cosmetically, and there was no reason (as far as I was concerned) to swap it.
Reluctantly, I allowed them to send me a replacement. I say, "reluctantly" because my original was a new device but they would be sending me out a "certified reconditioned, like-new" replacement.
After some trepidation, I decided to go ahead; Motorola would probably take a year to get mine back to me after finding "nothing wrong", or the same year getting me a replacement, should I be lucky enough that my original device would act up for them to see that there actually is a real problem. Verizon, on the other hand could have a replacement to me in two days.
Needless to say, it has been a week (5 days) with the replacement and I have to admit that it absolutely WAS the device that I bought originally. This replacement hasn't repeated the problem, (with the exception of ONE VERY MINOR instance of about a 5 - 15 minute window on one day only), and I'm happy to say that it works like my original device did when I first got it.
I got a call after the 3rd or 4th day (I believe it was the 4th day) with the replacement device, from the trouble ticket people (technician who actually works out in the field maybe?) and was told that they have thoroughly checked the network/antenna/tower here and found that there was absolutely nothing wrong, and that everything is functioning as it should.
This problem was continuously happening at my house, so it was natural that I believed something was wrong with the tower here near my house. I live in a good 3G/LTE coverage area near New Orleans and had no problems whatsoever from January/February through the first part of June, so it was only natural that I thought it must be a problem with the tower.
I thanked him, and told him about the replacement, and he told me that's what he was going to suggest next, and it was the only suggestion that he had left.
Just know that in the course of all of these calls, I was told by at least a few reps (2 for sure) at Verizon that they were aware that this IS a problem on some of the Razr's and Razr Maxx's.
If this is as bad for you as it was for me (and I'm confident that it is), then I would call Customer Service - don't go to a store. Tell them EVERYTHING that has happened, everything that you've done to attempt to resolve it (including the painful process of factory resets), and what I've described here.
If you're okay with a "new" (read: replacement) device, then I'm sure that they can get you a replacement out in short order. As far as it looking new, you would NEVER be able to tell cosmetically that this isn't a brand new device.
I hope that this was able to help you, as well as all the others, with this issue.
Good luck everyone, and God bless you.

Okay, so regrettably, I must report to everyone that the replacement followed suit after only 6-7 days. It lost 4G connectivity and jumped to 3G and that's where it stayed.
So I call Verizon and after a brief conversation, they asked if it was okay for them to transfer me over to Motorola for them to troubleshoot and I said that I'd be more than glad to speak with them.
Here's the breakdown:
After a lengthy call (an hour and twenty minutes), allowing them to remotely connect to my phone, and the Level 2 Tech seeing for himself that it's on 3G in a full 4G area, he tells me that there's nothing more that can be done.
WHAAAT?!!!
He said that if I want to send it in to Motorola they'll look at it, and if they did find anything wrong with the phone they'll send me a replacement, but if they DON'T find anything wrong with it (which I'm sure would be the case), they will simply send me my phone back, and that it will be Verizon's network that is the problem.
In this scenario I would need to find a replacement phone to use while my Razr goes to Motorola (for them to find nothing wrong with of course, and blame everything on Verizon's LTE network) only to get it back weeks later and be totally inconvenienced (this has been going on since June).
The last thing he said to me before getting off the phone was that they have similar devices with other carriers and they don't have any of these problems with those devices.
I've started searching the other devices forums here in the Verizon Wireless Community and I'm beginning to see a pattern. The same issue is happening with quite a few of the other 4G devices so I'm not really sure that another device (different manufacturer) is even the answer.
They have sent me yet another Droid Razr and I can honestly say that this will be the last one. If I can't find a device that will actually keep/hold LTE connectivity then I may have to go back to Sprint. Their native coverage is nowhere near Verizon's but they also don't have much 4G coverage right now.
If I'm going to have to be on 3G anyway, I may as well pay less than I'm paying now - or at least pay the same and not have to worry about going over on data.I guess we'll see how this replacement works out and go from there.
Anyhow, just know that it may not be a Razr/Razr Maxx problem after all.
Hopefully, they can get this sorted out and we can all get back to life......

T520 won't operate with Droid Razr M Hotspot

I have tried a Click Away computer repair, Verizon and Motorola support but to no avail.
My T520 will not operate with my Droid Razr M hotspot. The hotspot works with other computers. The
T520 works with other hotspots. With the Droid Razr M, the T520 connects , sometimes has internet access for a short while, then no internet access. Most times it is no internet access from the start but the connection is made.
I have upgraded the driver for the Realtek 1x1 11b/g/n Wireless LAN PCI Express Half Mini Card, no change.
My other computer is an Ideapad Y550. The hotpsot works fine with this. I have no problem with my home Wifi
operating with the T520 either. I have spent hours by myself and with others and have no other ideas. HELP!!
Click Away - could get other cell phone Wifi to connect with T520. They thought the Droid Razr M was rejecting the
connection to the T520 due to a MAC ID flagged as bad by the phone. Explained this to Verizon but they didn't pursue this.
Verizon - Opened a ticket to look into it and after a week still had no response. Customer agent that answered my call to follow up on open ticket said their network people didn't find anything operating incorrectly, thus no call. Called 611 and phone person tried clearing cache and then resetting different settings to see if could get connection.
Motorola - tried extensively to test different setups, took over control of phone and did a lot I didn't follow, ended running through different specified Broadcast channels ( rather than auto) to see
if that would allow internet access. Their conclusion is that T520 is an incompatibility with the phone.

You can't. iPad Bluetooth does not support it.

Droid razr

i have the droid razr and it's awful. it's always glitching, freezing, during on and off by itself out of no where, the screen and the back of the phone get really hot like it's been laying outside or something. and worst of all the screen will just sometimes randomly go black for a long period of time. i don't think this could have happened from me dropping it, because it was doing all this before i dropped it and i've only dropped it a few times. but do you think Verizon will replace my phone if i tell them this? or do you think they'll just say it's from the phone being dropped?even though it was happening before the drops. and cna someone, anyone, please give me advice or an answer as soon as possible. it's greatly apprecatied!

Thank you all for your response. I appreciate you taking the time to help out our fellow community members.
@sydddnneey,
Having issue with your phone is never a good time and I’m here to help!
How long have you had this issue? Have you tried a soft reset http://bit.ly/tb2reb? Did you notice these started after the ICS update? One thing you can try is a hard reset. This is recommended after a large software update like the ICS.
If you are still having these issues after the hard reset http://bit.ly/tQ0nkT we may need to look into replacement options. As long as there is no physical or liquid damage and you’re under the warranty it can be replaced at no cost.
Post back if you need further assistance after the hard reset.

Sluggish touch screen Droid Razr Maxx

For the last several months, my Droid Razr Maxx has had a very sluggish touch screen. How can I fix this? Could I possibly have too many photos (1700?) saved to my phone, consuming too much memory? Would saving the photos to the card solve that problem and if so, how do I do that? Thanks so much!

I would think that 1700 photos on your device storage might be the culprit. You could use a file manager to multi select all the photos and move them to your SD card. As an easier alternative, you could use a file manager app to move the DCIM folder to your SD card and then make that the default storage location in your camera settings.

Is my Droid Razr Maxx xt912 locked for use with another carrier's SIM - either in the U.S. or globally?

Is the Verizon Droid Razr Maxx XT912 locked to prevent using another carrier's SIM in the U.S.? Is it blocked to prevent use of another carrier's SIM outside the U.S.?
Thanks

Hi MattFlash, that is a great questions and I would be happy to help! The good news is that all of our 4G devices would be unlocked and ready for use with another carrier, so the Maxx is ready to go. If you would like to use another carriers service you may need their SIM card and would then need to follow their activation procedures. Hope this helps!
