Droid razr maxx keeps rebooting

I own a droid razr maxx. Every time I try to connect my headphones or try to connect to Bluetooth my phone reboots. This is very annoying and makes it hard for me to enjoy my music. Can someone please help me?

Jlace,
I am so sorry you have been having issues with the device rebooting when connecting an audio device. How long have your been having this issue? Have you tried the wonderful steps presented by SoccerRef12? If so, did it help? Have you downloaded any new applications around the time this began?

Droid razr maxx keeps sending multiple messages

My droid razr max keeps sending the same message over and over. The other day it sent the same one 20 times. Also sometimes it sends blank messages. Is there a way to fix this?

This problem is still persisting. In fact it is getting worse. We have called tech support multiple times. And nothing they have tried has helped. I am tired of wasting my time on the phone if it's not going to fix the problem. Something needs to be done now! This phone is a piece of garbage. You should not be allowed to screw over your customers by selling it to them. It is a nuisance to the owner of the phone and those they contact. Good thing most everyone that is texted from this phone has unlimited texting or you would be paying their bills for the ridiculous overages this would cause.

Try this App it's called Restore Connectivity it's in the Google Playstore! And leave the Switch in the CDMA/LTE position. Let me know if this Worked for you or Not..

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 Maxx keeps rebooting after software update

Since the upgrade on 11/1/14 to 23.3.24, my droid maxx keeps rebooting. It has done this about 15 times since yesterday evening. Any ideas as to what could be causing this? It is also telling me that I need my GPS on and set to high accuracy mode in order to detect my location. Before the upgrade, I only turned my location on when I used the navigation app. Any ideas?

The Latest update is suppose to get the Phone prepared for Verizon's voLTE it's hard to say how long it will be till all is functioning correctly with the system and the phones but, if your issues continue & it makes the phone unusable then I'd see if you can get another Droid Maxx hopefully one with out the new update..
My Current: Version is 21.11.21. my Maxx is still running with no issues

DROID RAZR MAXX Issue, Screen Issue

My one month old Droid Razr Maxx, has encountered an issue and is useless exept to tell the time. I was trying to change my wallpaper when the phone became very slow and laggy. The screen then flickered a little and went black. Next, it rebooted and then the home screen went black, except for the status bar which looks normal but will not drop down. Once the screen goes black from inactivity (even trying to press the touch keys produces no effect), pressing the screen unlock button will not turn the screen on. The screen will only turn on when connected to a charger. I had recently downloaded the gallery lock app (Morrison Smart Software), which seems to have mostly good reviews. I have performed 3 or 4 hard resets thus far. I need help fixing my phone. I can't remove the battery on this phone, and then screen isn't working correctly so I can't do a factory reset.

Can you boot into SAFE MODE ?? You can also UNINSTALL that Gallery Lock APP from the online Android Market (PLAY).
Safe mode:
- Power Off
- Power On
- Press & HOLD both up & down volume buttons at the same time -- for like 3 mins while it boots up. Keep holding these down!
- Phone should eventually come up and say SAFE MODE in lower left corner ..
Does THAT work??? If so, see if that app is in your APP drawer and try to uninstall it.
If that doesn't work, you can boot into the Maintenance Menu using a similar procedure that can get you to the ability to do a Factory Reset, if that's what you want to do.
let us know.

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 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.

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.

Droid razr maxx won't charge?

My droid razr maxx won't charge past 40%. I still am using the original charger and have tried charging while the phone is both on and off... Any suggestions?

As Rc indicated some USB's can have issues I have't seen any troubles in the one's that I currently own but I have more than one that I can use Plus I have the old Traditional OEM charger's that Motorola currently sell's but's not included in the box with the phone) The one you see below is one that I have and is usually found with an accessory..
If the phone is not passed the 14 day return, box it up with it's papers and return it to the store and have a Rep check it out with another charger if it works ok and you want to keep it Go a head) But if you'd rather exchange for another one see if the Rep will let you do it. Good Luck on your Decision.. b33

Just bought a new Droid Razr Maxx yesterday. WI-FI doesn't work at all.

Bought a new Droid Razr Maxx yesterday 9/23/12. Everything on it works just fine, except Wi-Fi. My phone doesn't even search for networks. I bring up the wi-fi menu and it's just blank. I hit scan and nothing happens. I restarted my phone a few times and it finally brought some up (although they're gone now) and when I tried to connect it would just practically ignore my requests. I'd enter the password in, hit "connect" and absolutely nothing would happen. This isn't just a problem with my home router, It doesn't find/recognize any wireless networks at my major university either. I've never had an issue like this. What can I do? Maybe I should just take it back to my local Verizon store?
Thanks!

To do a Soft Reset You Hold the Volume Down and the Power at the Same Time till the Phone Shuts off let go of the Buttons and the Maxx will re-power itself up.. Give the Wi-Fi another Shot

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.

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,
