Droid razr Maxx HD, Accessories

This is more of a retoricle question, just due to the fact this has been the case with motorola for years when it comes to accessories. I have yet to figure out why iphone/apple as soon as a new product comes out theres a boat load of accessories already out on the market. I know that the mfg. give out specs to the aftermarket mfgs so pre development of case's and other things can be done ahead of release of a new product, so why can't motorola or for that matter HTC, etc. do the same. For instance I had a Droid Razr Maxx when it first came out and it took at least 3 to 4 months to find a different case other than what Verizon offers. Now I have a Droid Razr Maxx HD and the same holds true. Is it that Apple has a better marketing department. I know that a iphone is designed for the cell phone impaired people, but come on the Android base system is still out selling apple, and for for a person thats been around the iphone and owned numerous Razrs and Android devise's, the Razr runs circles around any iphone. I tried even getting a Zagg invisasheild and even they don't have one yet, but all kinds of apple crap.      [ Gorrilla Glass still scatches ]. I can see why people by apple just due to fact of all the cool accessories that come out. Again I think the marketing dept. at the cell phone mfg. are asleep.

I agree with above.
All the many manufactures out there when they develop all their accessories designs can machine and plan for one design when doing so for apple iphone, but when they have to look at the android lines to make covers, they would have to CNC (machine) and have multiple drawings and licences etc. That is why most of the accessory companies have more apple designs, because they do not change too often from design to design and everyone that uses apple (iphone) has the same specs....
I mean look at Motorola alone...the number of new design style phones they placed on the market in the last two years is enough to drive us crazy, imagine developing accessories for them...?

  • Droid Razr & Droid Razr Maxx Accessories the same?

    Can someone tell me if the accessories for the Droid Razr are the same as the Droid Razr Maxx?  I'm upgrading to the Droid Razr Maxx and wonder if the Docking station, charging cords and car charging cords will work on it.  I'm thinking they will, but want to make sure.  I believe the plugs are all the same.  My concern is mostly the Docking Station.
    By the way Ice Cream 4.0 should be coming out this year, but there is no set date for the Droid Razr or Maxx yet.  So, it may not be until 3rd or 4th Quarter until it comes out.

    I did some digging on this subject after you brought it to my Attention!  An this is what i found the Car Dock that was Designed for the Razr is Only for the Razr an Not Maxx you can put the razr in it as a bare phone no Case or Take the insert out an put the Razr that's in a case in it!.
    As for the Razr Maxx it has to have the Dock specifically Maid for it So it Will match up with the Dock Pins!! Using the one for the Regular Razr will cause a Miss alignment..
    The One Hundred Dollar $100.00 Bundle that Verizon is Selling has the Car Dock for the Regular Razr Only!!  It however though has the Home Dock that will Work for Both Razr an Razr Maxx..
    This is the Correct Container Box for the Car Dock.. for the Razr Maxx

  • Droid Razr Maxx/Issues with Exchange Sync and Texting

    I have a Droid Razr Maxx.  Since the KitKat update to 4.4 in May 2014, my Exchange email account will not sync. My Comcast account does.    If I power cycle the phone, it will sync the Exchange account for a short time until I receive the following error message:  'couldn't open connection to server due to sec..."  When I touch the error message, it just goes away.  If there is more of the error message, I'm unable to see it.  I have removed the Exchange account and added it back in three times.  My IT department indicates they have not made any changes to the security levels, but have fielded several questions from other Android users with the KitKat update.  My text messaging service also stopped.  I've been reviewing all forums and tried different things, but to no avail.  I went to the Verizon store, who just said that there have been 'lots' of complaints about KitKat and that I should buy a different phone.  This $200+ phone is only 7 months old.  Please help!!

    After deleting and adding my Corporate account, visiting the local Verizon store several times, visiting my IT department, and now wiping the phone and re installing all software, the Corporate email still only syncs when I power cycle the phone.  We are a BYOD company which means every other phone works with the Exchange account.  My phone also worked up until the KitKat update in May 2014. The only recommendation I have received from Verizon is to replace my 8 month old Motorola Razr Maxx with a entirely different phone at full price. The tech I spoke with at Verizon made the statement that she has avoided updating to KitKat given all the customer issues she has had to deal with. 
    I'm in a technology field and understand when glitches occur, but also expect functionality issues to be addressed. I've been with both Verizon and Motorola for a long time, but very doubtful I will continue this relationship when contract time is up for renewal.  I'm carrying my iPad around to get the Corporate emails and the Razr Maxx has been relegated to just being a very expensive phone. 

  • After I unplug headphones, the speakers no longer work until rebooted.  Anyone else experience this?  Also had the same issue on the Droid Razr Maxx.

        Ahh. We can still help find the culprit, TeaParty14. Do you have any 3rd party applications installed to play your music? Are you able to hear any audio if you plug the headphones back into the phone instead of rebooting? Any audio for calls through the phone direct or through speakerphone?

  • Droid razr maxx

    I have an Apple Airport Extreme and am trying to utilize the wirelss function with my Droid Razr Maxx...the reception is poor at best on my Droid (3 units) and Motorolla says to contact Apple for resolution as the Droids have good reception with all other routers I encounter.  I assume it is some sort of setup in the router that needs to be changed as my Macbook Air's and other devices have great reception with the router.

  • Bluetooth Issue with Droid Razr Maxx

    I have had my Razr Maxx for about 3 weeks. From the jump I have had problems playing music thru several bluetooth devices. It will play fine for a few minutes, then music will start stuttering(dropping in and out) and continue to do so. Music plays fine when playing thru the phone speaker or wired headphones, but fails when using bluetooth.  I called in, and they sent me another phone, and the same problem is occurring with the new one. I'm figuring its a software issue, bc I had no problems with my Droid X. Is anyone else having this problem?? I probably listen to music just as much as I talk on the phone and this is def. frustrating.

    Hey CornyJoe: Time to invest in a Case Bubba they cost no more than a good pair of Golf Shorts an they'll make it look good an Protect as Well . Here are a Few Choices to go with. Enjoy! b33
    Well Here's a Few Options to Get you Started: Take a Look an See witch one Works the Best for Ya For me i Have the Leather Flap Pouch an the Pop in Case with the Kick Stand.

  • Problem with Droid Razr Maxx and Jelly Bean update

    My Droid Razr Maxx was updated this morning and right away found a couple of problems. First, although I was sitting next to my wireless router, the signal display indicated a really weak signal. This seemed to clear up after a reboot and an on-off-on cycle of the wifi on the phone.
    The second problem was that, with the wifi off, I had no data signal. None. The phone worked but no 1x/3G/4G. I traced that problem to the phone configuration. Somehow the update turned off Mobile network data access. (Menu -> System Settings -> Wireless Netwroks -> More... -> Mobile networks -> Enable data access over mobile networks)
    Seems like a dumb thing for the update to do.

    Put all of your contacts in one place, Gmail contacts.  Gmail will only sync one copy and is an excellent way to restore contacts after a factory reset.  If you have contacts in Gmail, Verizon Backup Assistant, Facemail, etc. then you will probably get multiple copies.  Ditch Backup Assistant ASAP if you have it activated.
    Make sure all of your contacts are in Gmail Contacts, erase all contacts from your phone (clear data in Settings > Apps > All > Contacts Storage), and resync with Gmail Contacts.

  • 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!

        @slotjan49
    I want to ensure you're able to stay connected using your Motorola Droid Razr Maxx HD!  When did this problem begin?  In what zip code are you experiencing this?  Do you get an error message when attempting to send a text?  Are you using a downloaded text messaging application or are you using the preinstalled text messaging application?
    Please try removing and reinserting the SIM Card http://vz.to/1jxFQVZ and retesting.  Please let me know so that I can further assist.  Thanks!

  • Wifi all of a sudden stopped working on my droid razr maxx

    not sure what the deal is. my droid razr maxx sees that there is wifi at home but my phone will not connect.
    thank you.

    Try a soft reset volume up and down hold plus power until it turns off or just reset you router at least power cycle it even if other devices connect. Also forget your network in WiFi settings

  • Group Text Messages Won't Download On My Droid Razr Maxx HD

    Many times my Droid Razr Maxx HD will not receive group text messages.  Often, not always, when I receive a group text I get a message notification and when I look at the screen it simply says "downloading."  This downloading can go on for hours.  Two days ago one simple text message took 7 hours to download.  This is a recent problem probably only going back 3 weeks or so.  The other phones in this group text are two I Phone 5's, an I Phone 5 s and a Samsung Galaxy SIII.  My phone is used for business and my inability to receive a text quickly is hurting my business.  I may as well not have a cell phone.  Anyone have any suggestions or ideas?

    I, too, am having the same issue.  I also notice the phone gets fairly warm/hot at times.  This all started after the most recent update.  It's highly annoying, as you all know, to see "Downloading  0kb" or "Downloading 30kb" over and over for both group texts as well as standard MMS.  Having to turn off WiFi, get the messages/downloads, then re-enable it is a hassle and not one that was present prior to the update.
    I've been with Verizon for a little less than 2 years but if pushing out mandatory patches to their phones causes problems like this then I would have no qualms switching to AT&T. 
    I like my phone and, for the most part, I've liked my service.  I've Googled this issue and TONS of people are having it since the update.  I hope Verizon is listening to it's customers and working on a patch of some sort.
