  • 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

  • I bought a new Droid Razr Maxx six months ago and now it does not work..

    So I bought my new Droid six months ago because the battery life was supposed last a long time. Recently, my battery usage time has started depleting. The phone only stays charged for MAYBE half a day where I used to go over a day without charging it. It has also started shutting off at random times and freezes up often. When I make/receive calls, no one can hear me. My keyboard malfunctions as well.
    My contract is not up until February of 2014. I was wondering if there is anything I can do to get a new phone (iPhone 5) without paying the ETF or the full price of the phone? Verizon has not been helpful at all and it is very frustrating because I have been a loyal customer since they were Alltel.

    If your Battery is starting to Loose it's Punch you can get it Replaced)  Motorola has a Program were you can send you Maxx in and they will Replace the Battery For a Small Fee but at least it would get through till you Contract is Up...
    How can I replace the battery on my Droid RAZR?
    There are a couple of things you can do before replacing the battery. Sometimes it's a matter of changing a few settings that will ensure you're getting all the power you can from your battery. Motorola Customer Service can help you with this process over the phone.
    Before you call:
    We recommend that you completely deplete the battery by allowing the device to completely shut down when the battery has depleted.
    Once your product shuts down, plug it into the charger that came in the original box, and allow it to charge to 100%.
    Once you've completed this charging cycle, call Motorola Support at 800-734-5870, and the team will diagnose your battery, and recommend setting changes or actions.If your battery does need to be replaced, we offer two battery replacement options:
    The battery only replacement program lets you send your product to Motorola so that we can replace the battery and return the device back to you. If your device is within the warranty period there is no charge for this service. If your device is outside of the warranty period, the cost of this service is $49 plus applicable taxes.
    You can expect to receive the device back approximately 5 business days from the time we receive the device.  Use our online repair submission process to get going.
    If your device is outside of the warranty we also offer an expedited battery replacement program. For an extra charge we'll provide you with a FedEx label to return your product, the cost of this service is $69 plus applicable taxes.
    You can expect to receive the device back 3 days after we receive the unit.  Use our online repair submission process to get going.

  • Who Is Ordering A Droid Razr Maxx Tomorrow?

    The way things are going, wait two months and they'll be a whole new device that will make the Maxx the "almost" best thing - and $100 cheaper.
    Probably the quad core Razr will be next.

    How can I unock my phone when the touch screen is broke/frozen?  I have a replacement phone coming tomorrow and need to back-up to itunes.  The phone is a 5.
    All help is most appreciated.

    If the device has been regularly backed up and synced with iTunes, simply connect it to the computer and do a backup via iTunes.
    If it has not been backed up regularly (or never backed up) there is no way to force a backup without a functioning screen.

  • So I lost my Motorola Droid Razr Maxx HD and had to get it replaced with an LG Lucid 2. I was wondering when I could possibly upgrade to a newer Motorola and if so, how long that would take.

    This is a question concerning eligibility for upgrades with replacement phones for a lost phone.

        Hi nchiajoe
    I would be happy to help! Was there any issues with your LG? You can see your upgrade date by dialing #UPG to check. To get a new device sooner check this link: http://vz.to/ZILXBT

  • The screen of my ipod broke so will i be able to get a new one but i left my ipod in the locker and my mom is planning to go tomorrow without the ipod to the apple store

    the screen of my ipod cracked so will i be able to get a new one but i left my ipod in the locker and my mom is planning to go tomorrow without the ipod to the apple store but we still got the case of the ipod from the first day we cant find the receit though

    1) you can get a replacement one, though you might have to pay the out of warranty price for the device (normal iPod touch 4th gen 8g = $99)
    2) If you don't have the iPod itself, its is highly unlikely they'll replace it since you won't be handing the original over (since its in your locker)

  • I Have been getting BAD battery life after the ICS UPDATE !! on the DROID RAZAR MAXX have this happen to any one else ??????

    i have been getting really bad battery life after install ICS on my droid razar maxx i can only go 1 day and 3 hours where i used to be able to go 2 day easy have this happen to anyone else can someone tell me how i can make my battery life better??????/ and do i need to let my phone go complete dead before fully chargeing it again ??????
    before install the ICS update i had 30 percent of battery life remaining so i pluged it in and let charged for a little bit while it updated my phone and ever thing after it updated i unplug my phone and started playing on my phone to see what ICS was all about but when it got to 15 and said " connect to your changer so i did !!!!! should i haved let my phone going complete dead since i unplug without it fully changer or does it matter ?????????????? if someone could please help me !!!!:)

    What was your battery reading right after the update when you unplugged the phone? I have never let my Maxx drain further than 20% battery ever before I charge it. Yesterday after the update I also played more with the phone trying to learn the OS, as did most everyone on this forum. Give it a few days of your normal use before you decide your battery life has decreased. I took my phone off charger today at noon, it was 100%, and now it's 80%, with about 30 min talk time, and mostly standby. that's about normal batt life for me, maybe a little better than before the update. I'm still going to watch it for a few days before I make a conclusion about battery life.

  • Droid Razr Maxx getting JB update now.

    I received ota update this morning. Now I'm just waiting on the Xoom 4g update to JB and I'll finally have all three of my devices on the same OS.
    My Nexus 7 has shown me the very nice OS benefits and I'm looking forward to continuity across all 3 devices.

    The OP must have the HD version, the JB update is currently rolling out for those models. The original RAZR and RAZR MAXX are still on the schedule to get JB, but there is no time table given for it yet.

  • 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.

  • 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...?

  • How to get a new iPhone 5 16GB for $200 without a Contract

    I upgraded to the Droid Razr Maxx about 2 months ago.  I have decided that I want to switch to the iPhone 5 and was set on paying the $650 price then just selling my Razr Maxx on eBay to make up some of the cost.  I went to the Verizon store and told the guy there what I was doing and he suggested I do something else.  He suggested I add a line to my existing plan and get the iPhone 5 on it.  Then I can immediately 'suspend' the line for up to 90 days at no cost.
    Total cost: $199 + $30 upgrade fee plus tax, about $248
    Within the first 30 days, call and cancel the new line.  You will have a $350 early termination fee but you will not have any service costs since the line was suspended.
    Total cost: $248 + $350 = $598
    Then sell your old phone on eBay/Craigslist to cover the difference.  Of course, this will be a different amount for everyone.  SGSIII's and Razr Maxx's are going for about $400 - $450 used.
    Total cost: $598 - $400* (old phone) = $198
    New iPhone 5 without contract: $649 + tax, about $702 - $400* (old phone) = $302
    profit????

    All that assumes you paid $0 for the Razr Maxx (current upgrade price $199.99).  Was this true?  That cost needs to be added into the equation. 
    Also you state you upgraded a few months ago, did you not enter into a contract then?  All you have done is swap phones on an existing contract that still probably has 18+ months to go.  Congrats on your $100 savings though.
