WiFi choked by mysterious uploads on Droid Maxx

When connected to WiFi, my Droid Maxx is always uploading something. It prevents me from doing anything like checking email or browsing the web. How can I find out what the log jam is?

If you are using some sort of cloud backup, it's more than likely it trying to push everything you have to the cloud.
Most Internet providers only give 1-4 Mbps. so if you have Gigabytes of pics and music to upload you're going to be there a LONG time. 8GB of pictures is 64,000 Megabits of data. At 1 Mbps upload it will take at least 64,000 seconds (17+ HOURS) (longer because of overhead) to do a backup.

If i have droid maxx and am on wifi am i using verizon data

if i have droid maxx and am on wifi am i using verizon data?

No you are not using data while on WiFi. However if WiFi disconnects you can make sure no cell data is used by turning it off in settings / data usage. Turn it on when u out need it. Optional method

The wifi on my Droid Maxx Will NOT turn on how can i fix this.(it is not on airplane mode)

How can i make my wifi turn on my droid maxx

Oh no, ThunderHumper. Let's get your WiFi working smooth. What happens when you go to Settings and turn on WiFi? Does it show turned on but not recognize any WiFi connections? Try turning your phone off then back on to refresh it's services.

WIFI and Bluetooth will not turn on, DROID MAXX

Both WIFI and Bluetooth cannot now be activated on my DROID MAXX. No problems at all until the recent update, so I can only assume that this issue results from the update. At either the WIFI screen or at the Bluetooth screen, the window is empty except the slider, and when the slider is moved from OFF to ON, it hangs there about five seconds then slips back to OFF. Rebooting does make one difference: the first time you open the WIFI screen several options in a menu do appear in the window below the slider as expected, but after the first attempt to slide it to ON and then it returns to OFF, the options disappear and the window is again empty (except for the impotent slider). Is there a fix?

after a hard reset, wifi works and bluetooth works. I’ll reply here if they stop working again.
thanks.

Not at home, work or anywhere else

That's no good, jeanne1215. Let's get it connecting again. What happens when you try to turn the WiFi on? Did this start after installing a new application or update?

Droid Maxx Won't Forget WiFi Network

Hey all,
I just upgraded to a new Droid Maxx and I'm running into a frustrating problem. I configured a wireless network at the office (a limited guest network) and connected to it just fine. I then got connected to the full permission WiFi network and I decided to drop the guest network. I went to drop the WiFi network from WiFi - Manage Networks - Forget and it worked. Temporarily. I came back a few minutes later and it had reconnected to that guest network (which requires a password) and that guest network appears in my list of networks when I go to Manage Networks. I tried to Forget it again, which works, but once I lock the phone and come back a few minutes later, that network is back in my list of networks under Managed Networks. The problem is that it keeps connecting to this network. I've tried rebooting the phone and that doesn't help. The really odd thing is that when I Forget the network from Manage Networks, it comes back complete with the password. The only work-around I have found is to leave the network in my Manage Network list and change the password to something incorrect so it cannot connect. However if I then Forget that network with the bad password, it comes back with the correct password. My question is - what can I do to permanently remove that WiFi network from my Manage Networks list (short of a hard reset of the phone)?
Thanks in advance for your help!
Lee

That's odd. All of my devices will forget a wifi network after I long press to get a dialog and choose "forget network".
Try forgetting the network when you are in a different location and not in range of that wifi network. Reboot the phone afterwards and see if the wifi network remains gone from the saved list.
Hope this helps.

Have a Droid Maxx HD - How do I upload music to Easy Ringtone Maker?

I have music loaded on my Droid Maxx HD but can't figure out how to get them loaded onto Easy Ring Tone Maker to make ringtones?

Photo Stream is the service used to sync photos to iCloud. You have to enable the option in iCloud Control Panel on your Windows machine and/or iCloud settings on your iOS device.
You can't sync music to iCloud per se. Music you have purchased from iTunes can be redownloaded for free at any time. iTunes Match will allow you to download iTunes copies of music you have acquired through other sources for $24.99/year, though the service isn't available yet. More information is available at http://www.apple.com/icloud/features/.

I had the galaxy 3 withwifi issues. I recently obtained the droid maxx. it says that I am connected but over the past two months I've gone over data! I have two lines , we checked the numbers in "my verizon" and it pretty much validated our suspicions! i

I had the galaxy 3 with no wifi issues. I recently obtained the droid maxx. it says that I am connected but over the past two months I've gone over data! I have two lines , we checked the numbers in "my verizon" and it pretty much validated our suspicions! it's this phone. Is there something I should check? It says connected to wifi, wifi is fine.....confused.

Kimberly1966 we'll solve this mystery and put an end to the overage! Do you disable data when connected to Wi Fi? If not, I would recommend doing so to prevent accidental usage by http://vz.to/V4epNo

Battery drain on Droid MAXX that was just updated to 4.4.4

I updated my Droid MAXX to Android 4.4.4 last week. I can not longer even go a full day on a 1-0% charge. I used to be able to go 1.5 to 2 days but now the battery seems to drain extremely fast with the new OS. Anyone else experiencing this?
Also will not keep a WiFi connection - does not even see saved Wifi connections. If enter new, just saves connection and will not connect.

I agree with tbo27 with running a Factory Reset as you can't uninstall what was Downloaded. the more I see these post the harder to read..

Does anyone have Bluetooth failures with Mot Razr Droid Maxx using car hands free systems

Both my wife and I have Razr Droid Maxx's and are having the same problems with our respective cars. At times, the phone will drop the bluetooth connection and it will have to be rebooted at which point it will be discovered and re-connected to the car. The problem is NOT in the car, as we have a Ford Fusion and a Toyota Camry and we encounter the same problem with both.
Both phones are running Ice Cream Sandwich and we have verified all of the bluetooth settings at both ends of the connection.For some reason the phones.
The problem is particularly annoying in that, at least in the Camry, you are unable to reconnect the phone while driving, so you have to pull over and put the car in Park in order to do it.
Verizon tech support and the Verizon store have been of no help. They simply shrug their shoulders and say they have never heard of the problem.
Has anyone else had issues like this?

I use Razr HD Maxx and used to have bluetooth disconnect problems during the calls. I tried everything I could think of, all in vain. Factory-reset solved the problem only for a while. Finally, I have found that some communication apps like Viber have the nasty habit of asserting itself every few minutes during non-Viber calls and reset both the bluetooth and speakerphone state to the default mode. This causes bluetooth to disconnect or turn off the speakerphone a few minutes into every non-Viber call. If you have an app like Viber, try either freezing it or uninstalling it. Uninstalling Viber was the only permanent solution to my bluetooth disconnect problems.

Droid MAXX won't download MMS

My Droid MAXX will not download MMS messages. After clicking "Download," I receive the following two messages in sequence: "Message has expired or not available." and "Couldn't download mesage (no subject)". Does anyone know what might be the problem? Thanks!

Make sure your mobile data is on. If you are on WiFi, as long as you didn't shut off mobile data first, it should cycle automatically to download the MMS, but it doesn't always work.

Droid Maxx will not make or receive calls with a full signal

My Droid Maxx has been doing this for the last week or two. It seems to only happen at night though. I have a full 4g LTE signal, however it changes from grey to blue constantly. I am able to text, search the web, or plain just do anything else...other than call out or receive a phone call.
When I try and call it just says dialing or retrying.
Has anyone else had this same issue? I have searched my phone for any time settings that may be keeping me from making or receiving calls during certain hours since this only happens at night when I am at work but have not found anything.

I received a replacement phone and I have duplicated the problem on it. The call problems occur only when Wifi is turned on AND this began AFTER the KitKat release was installed on the phone(s). I noticed a similar complaint in the forum and his timeline suggests that he might be having the same problem. How can I get this investigated?
Thanks

Can't use MotoCast on my new Droid Maxx

I just upgraded from a Droid 4 to the Droid Maxx. I tried downloading the MotoCast app but it says it is not compatible with my phone. I am looking for a substitute. I want a super easy way to auto upload my photos to from my phone to computer. I know I can use Drive/Dropbox/cloud programs to transfer them to a folder on my computer, but not automatically. I have to go in, select all/new photos on my phone, and then hit upload. Does anyone know how I can streamline this process so it auto saves my phones pics on my computer whenever I am in range. I really really really miss that about motocast.

There's lots of great options to pick from to back up your media, CelesMaria. The best I'd suggest is Verizon Cloud. Not only can you move files from your phone to computer or computer to phone, but the backup will automatically occur daily. For more information about this program, visit http://vz.to/1uLq7Zv.

I ordered my droid maxx over 24 hours ago - can't call verizon because I don't have a working phone right now - it says it's still in processing. I was told I should get my phone today, despite it still being in processing instead of having shipped.

Tuesday night (2/3) I ordered a droid maxx using an upgrade because my s4 LCD screen shattered. I was told it would be over night shipping,a nd I should get it Thursday. I borrowed my wife's phone to call verizon last night to ask why it was still listed as "in processing" and I was reassured I should get it today.As of now, it's still listed as "In processing." When I asked a chat rep how it could still be in processing and I still supposedly get it today (as they had initially reassured me), they referred me to customer care. I won't be able to call verizon for quite some time because I don't have a phone myself right now. Help!

i am in the same boat, ordered tuesday after 4pm, as they said it would ship by 4pm the next day and 2 day shipping used.. have no Fedex tracking number, but found out once order is made,theres a place called the warehouse that can hold 3 days, before shipping anything out or the ware house.. so now instead of being home and able to sing for the phone, we will have to shift work schedules, one verixon decides that they will ship my phone to my house. so for 2 day shipping i may get it after 1 week..been told for 2 days in a row that it will ship... nothing but online sales tells me no delays no problems, but warehouse says it special configuration on my phone takes 3 days, but cant tell me when it will ship, or be delivered..
