My Speaker is Popping on My Razr Maxx

The speaker on my Razr Maxx at different times wants to Pop or Crack like at the end of a Ringtone or if i'm listning to my scanner app an sometimes even listning to music. What i am wanting to know is any one Els hereing this on there Razr or Razr Maxx. It has kind of got to the point of maybe returning it for a new one. And this is the first device that i have ever had do this. My Droid X or my Droid Incredible never popped in the speaker like my Razr is Doing. Never! B33

It will do this from time to time Mine does it as Well Make Sure you get the App Called EQ you can get it Free or you can get the Paid Version an using this app will help with the snapping as it did Mine how did it do it once i got the app installed an then went in an Opened it. I cut the 14kHz down to + 1.2% an you can cut it down even further mostly with Eq's you just find the sound that best suites you an calms down the Snapping.. But if it's really bad Mickam an since your under your 14 days you could return if want but as said if you want to give a day or Two an see if the i mentioned helps the sound go ahead an Keep it..
To keep my Unlimited for Two more years i went bought another Maxx i wasn't really interested in any of the Others Devices i wanted or thought about a Rezound but Rep i work with said they had Units come back with issues. Some have gotten really Hot, the Cameras have Quite an some have Seized Up. But i really wanted to give it a Chance.! but stood Fast and took home another Maxx.. But i still have old Betsy my Droid X she's my Baby an even though she's not I.C.S upgradable she can still can come in if i need her. As a Very good back up.. So i'm Rockin Two Maxx's b33

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

RAZR MAXX drops calls "on command" and randomly

I have a RAZR MAXX (two months old). If I use my Plantronics Pro HD Bluetooth device, the phone will suddenly drops a phone call without any reason. If I don't use the BT device and use only the phone/speaker, everything is working fine. The same goes if I connect another BT device as well as a wired earpiece. It suddenly gives the loud beep in the ear and the call gets disconnected. This happens 2-3 times per day out of 40 phone calls.
My boss has a RAZR MAXX as well, and he has the same identical problem... only today, he was able to "make" the phone drop the call by simply placing the phone back into the holster. He uses only a wired earpiece and the call would drop ONLY when the earpiece is connected. We tried a phone call by having the conversation on the speaker, and he was able to place the phone into the holster without any problem... the moment he connected the earpiece plug to the phone, I got the beep and the call got disconnected.
Can ANYONE confirm or had any experience with this crap?

You are absolutely correct. The person who deleted my posts AND his own post which made no sense whatsoever to the initial question I posted, is probably reading this post with interest, as I'm reporting this incident to Verizon's Admins.
Here is what my boss discovered in the last few days since I posted the question:
1. Him and I use a leather holster with a latching magnets to close the flap. When he placed his phone in the holster while on call, and closes the flap, the call gets disconnected... but ONLY if his $50 wired (forget Bluetooth for a moment) is connected to the phone. He now uses a piece of Velcro (ugly but works) to hold the phone in the holster. When the flap is open, he can use the phone WITH the wired earpiece without a problem. There is no question it is a design issue of the phone.
2. In my case, the fist call of the day today, which I used the speaker option, not even my BT, the call was disconnected after 3 seconds... It is definitely the phone. This is without turning the BT ON...
So far, the only way MY phone is working properly as a phone is when I bring it close to my head and talk... For free cancer catalyst I can go out to the desert and enjoy the sun... The phone is a pain AS A PHONE.
3. I know for sure it is NOT Verizon. I'm with the company for year and used BlackBerries until the RAZR MAXX... Maybe I'll need a PHONE phone AND and RAZR MAXX as a data device... so why did I buy the tablet?....
So far, only by playing with the phone things work... But I don't have time to play with the phone every day just to make some calls and mainly to receive many calls....

SLOW GUI in RAZR MAXX

I bought this phone because I wanted something with killer battery life AND because it's loaded with RAM and processing power. But after I updated to ICS ( due to issues) I noticed that all the nice animations that I had on the old OS are now gone. My phone is slow and choppy! Turning the phone horizontal and vertical causes the orientation to change after about 2 seconds and it doesn't transition smoothly. it just "pops" into it's new orientation without trying to look smooth while it's doing it. This is the story with MANY of the featurs on the phone. The menus are slow and boring. I bought an expensive phone so that I would not have to deal with "free smart phone" blues. But look what I got. I slow, choppy phone that I paid out the nose for.
Any suggestions? Is there any setting that will allow a friendlier looking OS? This thing just looks like it is out of the 80's. Sometimes I have to restart it because it responds to touch slowly. looking at pictures is a painstaking and embarassing feat. I had to put fireworks as my backdrop so that it would look exciting. blah. I should have gone with the galaxy SIII or something.
AM I MISSING SOMETHING???

Gmail on Razr Maxx

How can i delete emails (Gmail) on my Razr Maxx but still keep them in Gmail on my computer ?

I think it's under Settings - Forwarding and POP or something such as that. About 1/2 way down the page I tell it to leave a copy on the server. Now, that might only pertain to my computer using Outlook Express, I'm not sure. However, I never delete them from my phone if I think I might want to open it on my computer when I get home. I like to save emails from friends and family on my computer. I also save certain other emails from one reason or another. I don't save things on my phone except maybe temporarily.

Bluetooth on Razr Maxx

I just upgraded to the Razr Maxx and can't get it to see my bluetooth device at all when scanning. Any obvious hints or tips I am overlooking?

Welcome to the Forum: first off what kind of Blue headset are Using ? If you have had previous Motos like the Droid X it's Basically the same as the Pairing Goes. But Try this Go to Settings > Scroll to the Top to Wireless & Network Settings > Tap it look down just a bit to find Blue tooth & Blue tooth Settings Make sure Bluetooth is check > then go in to your settings.. An just like you had to to do with your Previous U was using Turn Bluetooth On an put it in Pairing Mode that way the Maxx can find it. While it is in pairing Mode Tap scan for Devices: you should then see it Pop Up in the Devices Box An with the Maxx Normally you Don't have to put the 0000 code in just let it Do it's thing an you should see Your Head set in the Box with {PAIRED BUT NOT CONNECTED} Tap on your Device an give a Few seconds an it should say it's Connected. Do that all that i suggested an you should be Hooked Up.. Let me know on here in this Post if that Worked for Ya.! b33

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.

Razr Maxx Calendar will not sync with Exchange Calendar

My Thunderbolt synced fine....just switched to the Razr Maxx Friday and the Calendar will not sync with my Exchange Calendar. Email and contacts are syncing fine.

Gapam wrote:
I guess I'm screwed. My Razr HD calendar won't sync with Google - apparently all my events were on the phone calendar and not Googe calendar. After following prior posts, I cleared the data on my phone's calendar - now my events are gone and I don't know when my next appointments are. Any way to retrieve that data? Any way to sync the two calendars - or to make sure the darn appointments are placed on the Google calendar and not the stupid phone calendar?
You have to select the Google/Gmail account as the location where to save the event. In the screen where you are adding the info to create the event there is a spot for choosing which calendar to save it to. This is where you pick the Gmail calendar.

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.

Thanks for the info regarding the latest update. I like some of the new/improved options, however I am highly disappointed that the update discontinued the reminder option. I would think that setting a program reminder is a highly used feature and many will be unhappy now that it is gone. I know I surely am!

Verizon Edge???? What will be the stipulations. & Major issue w/ Razr Maxx HD

Let me explain why I am wondering about this at this point and the problems I am having. I am wondering and hoping to get some concrete info on the new edge plan. I am on my third refurb warranty replacement phone. I am sick and tired of it at this point. This third phone is a Razr Maxx HD and of course the first week it starts acting up. I get the following icons either one or all at the same time: sim card icon, a no smoking type circle thing over the signal bars, and then that will turn into a red triangle with a white plus sign. A month and a half later and 3 sims card later, I still have no idea at any given moment when I can actually use my phone. Even motorola said if the third sims card does the same thing then it has something to do in the sims card slot. Believe me, i have went round and round with customer service about this. I'm so sick of this situation at this point I would like to trade for a different phone but it seems that not an option at this point. So it's either get another refurb Razr Maxx HD or buy a Note 2 at $700 all up front to keep my unlimited data. Now I have an old Alltel plan with a limited amount of minutes which is enough for us but we have unlimited text and UNLIMITED DATA. Now the only way to keep this is to purchase a phone at full retail. I was already to upgrade my plan and get a Note 2 at the discounted price but I just cant give up my unlimited data I don't think....I mean 10 gb of data with three phone is almost the same price as I pay now with unlimited data. It's a little bit more but come on its unlimited data. AHHHHHHHHHH!!!!! We have been averaging 6 gb approx but still get a Note 2 and I see my usage going up. April I used over 6 myself (daggone Pandora radio lol). Ok what I need to know is how this new program is going to work exactly. I know you are supposed to be able to purchase a new device at full retail price with no contract and make payments on it over a 24 month period. Then after 6 months and only if you have paid half of what the device cost on full retail, you would be able to purchase another device. My issue comes in at ... should I wait till this program goes live Aug. 25th to get a Note 2, get one now at full retail (but its $700) all up front, or just get another refurb Razr Maxx HD for now. Plus I heard the Note 3 is coming this fall but I'm not holding my breather about it. I would like to know more specifics about the New Edge plan especially if they will allow us on unlimited data plans to keep keep it if we use this program. Can someone please help?

B33 I have read your links thank you for the time. So it does seem Verizon will not let us unlimited data users to take advantage of the Edge program. Nor do I believe it is good anyway. I see people selling their phones for 2 and 3 times as much as what the trade in program gives you anyway right now. So if you have to trade your phone back in definitely not coming out ahead to me anyway. I am not one to want to trade every 6 months to a year anyway unless my phone has just crapped out on me.
As far as the update, I have already ran the update and it did nothing to help my phone. According to Motorola it is something inside of the sims card slot messed up. It was still doing after I ran the update. I never know when I can and can't use my phone.
I was all ready to go get a Note 2 but do not want to lose the unlimited date even if we only use 6 gb combined right now. You never know when you will start using more esp if I got the Note 2. But...I hate to try and put out $700 right now. And I do not know how it is handled if I buy one off of EBAY even if the one I buy is new. So I am in between a rock and a hard place. My contact at my store thinks I should get another refurb and wait out till more details come out about this program to see if it will help me. Any additional advice is wanted and appreciated.

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.
