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.

    Why am I no longer able to send or receive text messages from my Droid RAZR MAXX HD? 

        @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!

  • 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. 

  • 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 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- No output from headphone jack

    I've got a Motorola Droid Razr Maxx phone which I'm very happy with. Only thing I just noticed is that when I plug in extrenal speakers or wired headphones, there is no ouput from the jack. Internal phone speaker is still on with wired device plugged in. Bluetooth works fine, but I've got an external speaker I'd like to use for music that isn't bluetooth capable. I've looked at the sound setting on the phone, but can't find anything for this issue. If anyone has an idea on how to fix this I'd appreciate it.

    No as I said before in the post.  I still dont believe I abused the first one, and I am not going to take the risk of having to pay 350.oo for the second one.
    The only reason i took to the forums is to let others know of the service i received.  First individual I talked to told be to go buy one from someone else.
    The 2 hours I spent with your customer service reps  both placed a request for a supervisor to call me.  Its monday I have not heard from anyone.
    Just have very little trust or patience with Verizon anymore.
    And I haven't mentioned the ebill I received from Verizon for 429.00 for October that NO ONE at verizon can explain.
    Just bad service, Period.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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!
