Droid Razr Maxx HD release date??

Does anyone know when they will be releasing the Droid Razr Maxx HD? I've heard anything from last month to this coming January. I'm only concerned because the phone I have now is slowly dying of old age and I was curious how much longer I would have to put up with it.

Something i wanted to Add the new Maxx HD has a Nifty Notification Light that is Under the Motorola Logo on the Front Check out the Video at the Link

Can I upgrade a DROID Razr Maxx to KitKat. Tried running updates and it says I'm fully up to date with s/w version 4.1.2 (Jellybean)

I'm running a two year old Droid Razr Maxx with Android v4.1.2 (Jelly Bean). I'd like to be able to take advantage of some of the new fitness devices out there, but they all require minimum v4.4 (KitKat). Can I upgrade my phone to the new version, or am I stuck replacing this two year old phone with a new one? If I can upgrade, anybody know how to make the phone do it? When I run the normal update routine it comes back saying everything is up to date.

So is it maxed out, then, and can't be upgraded to KitKat? Or is there a way I can force it up to KitKat. Sort of like loading Windows 8 on a machine that was delivered with Windows XP. Reason I want KitKat is Jellybean won't support some of the peripherals I'd like to use. Is it hardware limited so it can't support Bluetooth Smart, for example?

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.

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 HD will not update to Android 4.4.2

Hello, All.
I am trying to figure out why my phone will not update to the newest version of Android or how to resolve this issue.
Here are my specs:
System version: 9.18.94.XT926.Verizon.en.US
Model number: DROID RAZR MAXX HD
Android version: 4.1.2
Baseband version: VANQUISH_BQ_100730.151.64.17P
Kernel version: 3.1.31-gef7deb8
Build number: 9.8.1Q-94
Build date: Wed Sep 25 15:13:00 CDT 2013
Here's the issue. I get the notification to update to KitKat (4.4.2) and so I download the update and press the install. It reboots my phone and starts the update. It gets to about halfway when the little Android animation falls on its side and displays a red triangle above him. My phone reboots again and when it loads, it shows a message saying that the update failed. There is no more information - just that it failed.
Is anyone out there having the same problem I am having? I've searched the Internet at no avail. All I've found are issues after the update.
Is there another way of updating my system that I don't know about? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!

Sharon ,
Thank you for giving that a try. A factory data reset would be the next step. I know you are hesitant to do this, but we can make it easier to restore the phone after it is erased. Do you happen to use Verizon Cloud? It's a great app that you can download from the Play Store and it'll save all of your contacts, pictures, videos, music and documents. If you do not recall your Gmail address and password please take note of them before doing the reset. Then, follow these steps http://vz.to/1hdnWdK to reset your phone. Often times doing this after a software update will resolve any issues you're having.

DROID RAZR MAXX TO RAZR MAXX HD

DOES ANYONE KNOW IF THE RAZR MAXX HD IS ALOT BETTER THEN THE RAZR MAXX? AND WHY, IS IT WORTH UP GRADING?

I have no idea, but I would not upgrade from a Motorola Droid Razr Maxx to any other phone unless I had to, especially if I was on an unlimited data plan, which I am.

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...?

Update has completely ruined Droid Razr Maxx Hd

As stated I have a droid razr maxx hd and ever since the kit kat update my phone has been close to useless. I have browsed the forum and seen multiple complaints and proposed solutions to the problems like mine and I have tried them and none have worked. My wifi signal reception is half as good and no changes have been made to the home wifi setttings. Areas in town where I would have full 4g reception including at my home are now 3 bar 3g reception. I have been missing calls for work because the phone is constantly searching for signal and is in between 3g and 4g in areas that before were always max 4g. With wifi turned off, if I pass an open wifi spot the phone will lose all data connection until im out of reach of the wifi spot. The phone shuts down on its own and battery life has been cut in half with absolutely no changes since the update. No new apps no change in how frequent the phone is used. I have done the very harsh factory reset and re-installed apps and no luck. I feel like im out of options and don't know which direction to go because I've still got 5 months before im eligible for an upgrade and I don't think I should have to pay full price for a phone when I enjoyed the phone I had until this update was forced on me. The rep at the local store told me about a plan to pay for the phone monthly but Verizon would be making me pay another 20 bucks a month to buy a new phone that this update screwed up along with me GIVING them the phone I paid for. I don't want to leave Verizon as I liked their service before all of this happening but I cant see paying 600 for a new phone that I didn't tear up. Im almost at the end of my rope...any help would be greatly appreciated.

I also have had the same misfortune. I am appalled that I was forced into updating my phone to Kit Kat. My phone just randomly freezes, shuts down, reboots itself, and now I don't have the battery life that it used to have. I could normally leave my phone on for 2-3 days and now it just shuts itself off more than once a day.
It seems none of the "fixes", that have been suggested, work. I don't know about you but I also lost my Swype and this new app they had me download is not nearly as good!!!! Wasn't it Motorola that "forced" the update? ...not Verizon. I know I had to call Motorola for any issues.
We need to have them change the phone back to its original programming... I wasn't asking for an update so why did they send them to all of our Razr Maxx HD phones? AGGRAVATING!!!
If you find out anything new please post it so that everyone can benefit from the knowledge.
Thanks.

My 4G LTE speed on Droid Razr MAXX HD is abysmal in Washington DC Area

Started with HTC Thunderbolt on 4G at 30Mbps 2 years back and now down to 0.35 Mbps on Droid Razr MAXX HD. I used to boast around the speeds on my phone with my AT&T friends and now its vice versa. Verizon 4G LTE speed is more pathetic than T-mobile or AT&T 3G speeds. My phone would drop data connections all day long in the office and this didn't happen before, it had started recently. I tried various resets, almost 5 Sim card replacement from their store and still no good. Opening a ticket with them is like spending 2 hours of troubleshooting before they even listen to you. Cannot stream videos, cannot watch anything on my phone, hell its up to the point that I just cannot use data services at all. The only place I get better 4G LTE is in Loudoun county at my home. The speed is consistently around 19-20 Mbps. Its only when I come to DC downtown or Rockville the phone is almost unusable. I don't know when will they hear me or I might have to just walk away and never recommend verizon to anyone for their pathetic wireless service (couldn't justify the price that I pay for their "Reliable"???? service). Is anyone else having issues with their phones or is it just me ?

Ann154 , Did not receive any messages ? What are you referring to?
I was writing to bobbys_vzw even though I was specifically replying to your post on the Verizon Wireless Community forum. If you sent them a DM (Direct Message), then they need to log in under their individual username and check their Communications tab for your message to them. The reps are replying to the customers on here with a group username which shouldn't be used for sending DMs to. The follow up on this community is iffy at best and it definitely doesn't help if the reps NEVER login with their individual username and only see the community through the "rose-colored glasses" window the Verizon Wireless Customer Support username presents to the members of the Verizon Wireless Social Media Team.

Droid Razr Maxx Internet Connection Problem

I have had the Droid Razr Maxx for several years. Recently (especially since the last update), my Droid Razr Maxx's internet connection is extremely poor and mostly non-functional. In fact, I normally shut off the WiFi since it rarely works. It does not function in my home or any other place. My router is fine and many other devices connect normally to my router (it is not the router). This seems to be a Droid Razr Maxx problem. I've removed all connections from the device, but nothing seems to work. I included the phone information below. Is there any viable solution to this problem? I'd appreciate any help.
Android version: 4.1.2
System version: 98.72.165.XT912.Verizon.en.US
Baseband version: CDMA_N_05.21.00RLTEDC_U_09.1D.00
Webtop version: wt-3.0.0
Kernal version: 2.0.8-g3617609 hudsoncm@ilclbld32 #1 SMP PREEMPT Thu Nov 21 14:19:19 CST 2013
Build number: 9.8.20-72_VZW-16-5
Build date: Thus Nov 21 14:10:17 CST 2013

Well, I think I may have figured out the problem. The guest network on my router was apparently interfering with my regular network and not allowing my Droid Razr Maxx to connect. Once I shut the guest network off, I've been connected to the Internet for 8 straight hours today. No drops, just a clean connecting all day long and streaming music all day long!
So, for me, the solution to this issue was turning off the guest network on my router.

Droid Razr Maxx Multimedia messages

For the past couple of week, my droid razr maxx has started not to allow me to respond or send anything that is considered a multimedia message. At all. This is extremely frustrating. I'm a college student and often use this as a way to contact my parents, friends, and classmates. My phone is up to date and I have both Wifi and my data plan turned on. I can receive multimedia messages just fine; however, I cannot send or reply to them.
Can anyone help me? I haven't even had this phone for a year and this is just the latest problem I'm having. My sister and mom have this phone as well and they're having no problems whatsoever.

I know it's very important to have an operable device to communicate rcripps. Let's get to the bottom of this! Are you connected to the wifi connection while the wifi setting is on? When you attempt to respond or send do you notice the signal indicator connecting to 3G/4G for a few moments? Are you able to send/respond with wifi off and connected to the Verizon Wireless network? Try powering the device off and removing/inserting the sim here http://vz.to/19QSEGL test and share. Thank you.

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.

Hi Kent K,
Article: HT1365 is about Potential sources of interference. Make sure to go over that because it can be responsible for all kinds of problems.
Hope this helps,
