Windows 8.1 and RT, XT912_Verizon Droid Razr, Texas Instruments TI_Connectivity_Module show up in my network

Checkout the thread on Microsoft Community forum.
On Windows 8.1 RT and 8.1 on a laptop, the XT912_Verizon Droid Razr keeps showing up under Phone in my network and the Texas Instruments TI_Connectivity_Module also keep showing up.  Also, sometimes a Samsung Galaxy shows up, all with various,
but consistent mac addresses in the Win 8.1 (RT) File explorer.  These devices are NOT showing up as available wireless networks that I can connect to.  This us under Network on File Explorer.  I have added mac address filtering to my router,
changed my wifi security key, which is a strong 20 random characters, and changed the user name and password for my router.  These devices do not show up as being wirelessly connected to the router and do not show up as dhcp clients on my router,
from the router admin interface.  This tells me that, if these devices are connecting to my network, they are not doing it wirelessly, since they are not in the mac address list and not listed as wireless connections in the router admin interface. 
If I show properties of, particularly the XT912, it "disappears" from the network window on the Win 8.1 (RT) explorer.  The router is a motorola sbg6580.  I connected through a cable to my router, turned off all other devices, disabled
wireless on both my router and my laptop, disabled WPS, listed only allowed MAC addresses in the MAC address filtering table and changed my network password, router user name and password to random character/number strings.  I haven't seen the devices
since. 
So far, three other users  have reported on this thread as having the same problem.  The other users who have posted on the Microsoft Community forum thread continue to have the problem.  The strange thing is the same device keeps showing
up, XT912_Verizon, for all users.

Hi,
For the issue, please select  "Turn off network discovery" to check the result.
Meanwhile, I suggest to perform Windows Defender to run a full-system scan.

  • How do I get firefox to display images clearly? I've got Windows 2000 Pro and Firefox 3.6.6. Internet Explorer shows images clearly, so I'm sure I have the correct graphics driver. Do I need a plugin or add-on of some sort? When I go to "updates", it

    When I use Firefox the images and logos don't show up clearly/correctly. I'm using Windows 2000 Pro. and just installed Firefox 3.6.6. I'm sure I have the right graphics driver as I'm able to see the images and logos clearly in Internet Explorer. I only have the "default plugin 1.0.0.15" installed. I'm thinking that I'm missing a plugin or add-on of some sort, but I'm not sure which one(s). When I go to "updates" it says there were no updates available. When I go to "Add-ons" it gives a list of Add-ons but I'm not sure which would help my issue. Any help would be appreciated.:)
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == I decided to Download and Use Firefox on this computer. I was using IE before, and it works fine. ==
    == User Agent ==
    Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US) AppleWebKit/533.4 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/5.0.375.99 Safari/533.4

    Firefox works fine on Windows 2000 SP4 for me.
    Any chance you have a dial-up connection that uses a web accelerator to speed the loading of content?

  • When i use pogo, on the risk game for instance, when i click on a game room, a window pops up and immdediately reduces in size, this size only shows part of the battle screen; i have tried resetting the zoom feature, no luck.

    i have seen this before on my home PC (on a lap top now) it is impossible for me to correct so i have to use IE to play pogo (i dont like IE it is slower) i click on a game, i go to a game room, and a window normally pops up showing the tables. normally i click on a seat and it takes me to a new window and the game board. NOW, when this first window pops up, it is aboout 1/4 size of my screen, but immediately reduces in size to about 1/6 of my screen. wnen the game loads, i cannot view the whole screen only part of the screen, as if it is zoomed in. I tried your suggestion and reset the zoom, no help.... i changed the zoom level manally.... no help.
    this also happens in scrabble and most other games. it is related to the java i am sure, but it only happens on firefox. How do i correct this. I have uninstalled, and reinstalled firefox. i have had this happen on the older version of firefox. it happens on multiple computers so it isnt just one computer.
    HELP!!!!!
    please

    I should have explained further. The game opens in a new window over to the upper left of my screen, leaving the original page underneath. I tried minimizing it so that I could get to my toolbar and did the View > Zoom > Reset. This has no effect. The lower portion of the game is still not showing. Using other browsers the window or frame of the game is much larger, therefore everything shows.

  • Qosmio G40 - Windows 7 64bit and missing drivers

    Hello..i recently upgraded my G40 to win7 64bit and have been very dismayed at all the missing drivers.
    so far
    1 Cd/hd dvd drive - driver not supported on this product - it was when it was on vista 32 - now i just get cd drive error.??
    2 tv tuner - no driver available
    3 av controller - no driver available
    4 acoustic silencer - no driver available
    5 finger print software - installed driver - no hardware found?? it definatly has one ..im looking at it.
    6 hdmi control manager - no driver available
    7 infrared driver- no driver available
    some of these drivers i can do without - (finger print im not worried about 0 but the CD/HD DVD drive is a real problem..
    Im normally reasonably fine with installing all these drivers...but it seems there are non there ..or they dont see the hardware....please help.

    Wait a moment you are mixing something.
    Do not mix CD/DVD driver and HD DVD driver.
    When you install operating system optical disc drive must be recognized properly. If you have problem watching HD DVD movies that completely other issue.
    So, is optical disc drive recognized properly? Can you use music CDs and watch DVD movies?
    If you cannot find Toshiba HD DVD player for 64 bit OS try to use some other players. I don't have HD DVD media and cannot test it for you.
    PCI memory controller is maybe cardreader.
    By the way, here is the list of all installed stuff on Qosmio G40 (Vista) so you can check if everything is installed and if there is some missing driver. Please note: some additional software is not downloadable.

  • Droid RAZR (not MAXX) 4G, service drops on GB and ICS

    Okay, the forums are full of threads concerning this issue. The phone loses data connectivity as well as voice. Every person seems to have a different opinion as to when or where their service drops, and I have tried to find a fix (official or not) since I first got my RAZR.
    I got my phone sometime in March 2012 from a Verizon store during a promotion. I was happy I can get a phone with better hardware than my DROID X (awesome phone-best I ever had). I didn't care much about the 4G, but I considered it a perk for upgrading.
    1. A day later I started having problems with my service. The 4G connection would drop, the 4G icon would turn white and then disappear for good. The phone would have no data connection at all but a few seconds later the white 4G icon would reappear and turn blue later. I thought it is because the 4G coverage is spotty as I was constantly moving from one place to another. But I got home (where I never had problems and Verizon service was always excellent) and it would do the same thing.
    2. I have data connectivity and voice service but I turn off the screen. When I turn the screen back on, data connection is lost and I have no service available. I had one error that said "SIM card invalid" or something like that a few times. On Gingerbread I just switched to 3G only and I had no problems. But every time I switched back to use the LTE, I had the same problem over and over.
    3. Upgraded to ICS as I figured Motorola and Verizon worked together to find a "cure" for these sudden service losses. I was wrong. With ICS it is even worse. I lose data and voice service very often. In store, Verizon employees are telling me they have never seen problems like mine (liars?). On the phone with CS I am told they do not know of any issues similar to mine. But forums are full of threads of people having the same issue. Answers from VZ employees are not very clear and directs people to a simple Factory Reset, cleaning the SIM card, reinserting the SIM card... basic stuff a monkey could think of too.
    4. Some times after a phone conversation, I hang up and immediately after, my service drops. I have to turn the screen off and then back on after about 5 seconds, the service is still nowhere to be seen, but if I leave the screen on for about 10 seconds, the phone will regain its connectivity to the network. THIS HAPPENS IN 3G COVERAGE AS WELL AS 4G NOW.
    Steps taken: Downloaded the Motorola app to Restore Connectivity - did not work, I still have the problem.
                        Carefully cleaned the SIM card surface making sure there is no static electricity  discharge - did not work, I still have the problem.
                        Factory reset numerous times  - did not work, I still have the problem.
                        Removed and reinserted the SIM card - did not work, I still have the problem.
                        Updated to ICS hoping that would solve the problem - did not work, I still have the problem.
                        Anything I do I still have the problem.
    So please tell me, Does VZ publicly acknowledges there is a problem with DROID RAZR? If yes why do some people inside VZ deny any issues with it while others don't. Aren't they trained or aren't they reading the same training material the others do? Besides that I am not aware of Motorola or VZ taking any responsibility in trying to fix this.Is there a fix in the works? Please if there is any help for people like me, with the same problem, I think VZ should email owners with solutions. REAL SOLUTIONS because it is possible. I receive newsletters for new phones and plans but none to suggest a fix to issues.
    And factory reset after factory reset is not working out for me as I use my phone not to txt my friends or send funny pictures of my dog to my neighbor but for business. This is really affecting and annoying me. And yes, I could switch to an iPhone but Android provides me with a great deal of options in my line of work that iPhone does not have. And yes, I could switch to another Android based phone, but I paid for this one and I want to use what I paid money for.
    Again... final question is: Is there a fix, a software fix (I think this has to do with software) for this?
    Thank you!

    I had EXACTLY ALL of the same issues (plus some Bluetooth issues):
    Got my phone in January or February
    First instance of this happened about the middle of June (or maybe the third week) for several days before I finally called, believing it was a "hiccup" in the network (still on GB)
    Customer Service did some troubleshooting, placed it in "safe mode" to see if it might be an app causing it, factory reset, etc., etc., etc.......
    VZ put in a network trouble ticket which seemed to solve the issue (although I don't really know what may have been done) for about a week (now I know that this was a mere coincidence)
    About a week or two later (still on GB) it started again; this was maybe a Wednesday
    CS troubleshooting, another trouble ticket, etc., etc., and then I finally did a factory reset myself
    Friday night (maybe Saturday) ICS is out, and downloaded believing it would fix it.
    The problem was resolved briefly (several hours, maybe a full day) and then began again with a vengance
    Called, went through all the same humbug, did a couple (or a few) factory resets, and I too, had the "invalid SIM" error show up on the screen out of nowhere ........
    Customer Service had me to go to my local Verizon store and get a new SIM (they thought that might possibly be the problem). Got the replacement, and it worked, again, only briefly; just a few short hours later, it was right back to the same old thing........more phone calls
    trouble ticket is still out.......
    Was even told by the advance tech support person that on several phones with this very same problem, that he actually saw this resolved by simply creating a different, brand new Google account (instead of the Verizon customer's original Google account) during setup, after a factory reset (don't ask me how......). Gladly, this is one step that I didn't take (that's all I need is one more email account!)
    Finally, it was determined that it MUST be the device. I really didn't want another phone as I always keep my phones in pristine condition cosmetically, and there was no reason (as far as I was concerned) to swap it.
    Reluctantly, I allowed them to send me a replacement. I say, "reluctantly" because my original was a new device but they would be sending me out a "certified reconditioned, like-new" replacement.
    After some trepidation, I decided to go ahead; Motorola would probably take a year to get mine back to me after finding "nothing wrong", or the same year getting me a replacement, should I be lucky enough that my original device would act up for them to see that there actually is a real problem. Verizon, on the other hand could have a replacement to me in two days.
    Needless to say, it has been a week (5 days) with the replacement and I have to admit that it absolutely WAS the device that I bought originally. This replacement hasn't repeated the problem, (with the exception of ONE VERY MINOR instance of about a 5 - 15 minute window on one day only), and I'm happy to say that it works like my original device did when I first got it.
    I got a call after the 3rd or 4th day (I believe it was the 4th day) with the replacement device, from the trouble ticket people (technician who actually works out in the field maybe?) and was told that they have thoroughly checked the network/antenna/tower here and found that there was absolutely nothing wrong, and that everything is functioning as it should.
    This problem was continuously happening at my house, so it was natural that I believed something was wrong with the tower here near my house. I live in a good 3G/LTE coverage area near New Orleans and had no problems whatsoever from January/February through the first part of June, so it was only natural that I thought it must be a problem with the tower.
    I thanked him, and told him about the replacement, and he told me that's what he was going to suggest next, and it was the only suggestion that he had left.
    Just know that in the course of all of these calls, I was told by at least a few reps (2 for sure) at Verizon that they were aware that this IS a problem on some of the Razr's and Razr Maxx's.
    If this is as bad for you as it was for me (and I'm confident that it is), then I would call Customer Service - don't go to a store. Tell them EVERYTHING that has happened, everything that you've done to attempt to resolve it (including the painful process of factory resets), and what I've described here.
    If you're okay with a "new" (read: replacement) device, then I'm sure that they can get you a replacement out in short order. As far as it looking new, you would NEVER be able to tell cosmetically that this isn't a brand new device.
    I hope that this was able to help you, as well as all the others, with this issue.
    Good luck everyone, and God bless you.

    Okay, so regrettably, I must report to everyone that the replacement followed suit after only 6-7 days. It lost 4G connectivity and jumped to 3G and that's where it stayed. 
    So I call Verizon and after a brief conversation, they asked if it was okay for them to transfer me over to Motorola for them to troubleshoot and I said that I'd be more than glad to speak with them.
    Here's the breakdown:
    After a lengthy call (an hour and twenty minutes), allowing them to remotely connect to my phone, and the Level 2 Tech seeing for himself that it's on 3G in a full 4G area, he tells me that there's nothing more that can be done.
    WHAAAT?!!!
    He said that if I want to send it in to Motorola they'll look at it, and if they did find anything wrong with the phone they'll send me a replacement, but if they DON'T find anything wrong with it (which I'm sure would be the case), they will simply send me my phone back, and that it will be Verizon's network that is the problem.
    In this scenario I would need to find a replacement phone to use while my Razr goes to Motorola (for them to find nothing wrong with of course, and blame everything on Verizon's LTE network) only to get it back weeks later and be totally inconvenienced (this has been going on since June).
    The last thing he said to me before getting off the phone was that they have similar devices with other carriers and they don't have any of these problems with those devices.
    I've started searching the other devices forums here in the Verizon Wireless Community and I'm beginning to see a pattern.  The same issue is happening with quite a few of the other 4G devices so I'm not really sure that another device (different manufacturer) is even the answer.
    They have sent me yet another Droid Razr and I can honestly say that this will be the last one. If I can't find a device that will actually keep/hold LTE connectivity then I may have to go back to Sprint.  Their native coverage is nowhere near Verizon's but they also don't have much 4G coverage right now.
    If I'm going to have to be on 3G anyway, I may as well pay less than I'm paying now - or at least pay the same and not have to worry about going over on data.I guess we'll see how this replacement works out and go from there.
    Anyhow, just know that it may not be a Razr/Razr Maxx problem after all.
    Hopefully, they can get this sorted out and we can all get back to life......  

  • Can I upgrade a DROID Razr Maxx to KitKat.  Tried running updates and it says I'm fully up to date with s/w version 4.1.2 (Jellybean)

    I'm running a two year old Droid Razr Maxx with Android v4.1.2 (Jelly Bean).  I'd like to be able to take advantage of some of the new fitness devices out there, but they all require minimum v4.4 (KitKat).  Can I upgrade my phone to the new version, or am I stuck replacing this two year old phone with a new one?  If I can upgrade, anybody know how to make the phone do it?  When I run the normal update routine it comes back saying everything is up to date.

    So is it maxed out, then, and can't be upgraded to KitKat? Or is there a way I can force it up to KitKat.  Sort of like loading Windows 8 on a machine that was delivered with Windows XP.  Reason I want KitKat is Jellybean won't support some of the peripherals I'd like to use.  Is it hardware limited so it can't support Bluetooth Smart, for example?

  • 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. 

  • I currently have a DROID RAZR M and I'm 1 year into my 2 year contract.  Since the Kitkat update, the phone won't stay charged and it's very buggy.  I know this is not Verizons fault but it's also not mine. I would like to change my phone to an iPhone 5s

    I currently have a DROID RAZR M and I'm 1 year into my 2 year contract.  Since the Kitkat update, the phone won't stay charged and it's very buggy.  I know this is not Verizons fault but it's also not mine. I would like to change my phone to an iPhone 5s and keep my same plan but switch to the Edge program. Is this possible? I don't think I should have to pay an early termination fee or anything like that since my phone has become almost unusable. I know under normal circumstances you have to wait 2 yrs to upgrade but due to the update and the poor service I'm now getting I hope Verizon can make an exception. Thank you.

    How recently did you switch?  If it's less than 60 days, then Verizon simply reinstates your previous account.  The fact that you were on the EDGE plan and mailed the devices back, and they apparently are somewhere in the system, could cause complications, and it might just work out that you just go back on the same plan and they set you up with the same devices.  I'm not sure how it will go - but since you are still being billed for the devices... 

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • My droid razr m suddenly developed a high pitched buzz while ringing and when callers are speaking. It doesn't buzz while on speaker. Any one have same problem or a solution to it?

    My droid razr m has developed a high pitched buzz while ringing and when callers are speaking. It does not buzz when on speaker. Anyone have this problem or a solution to it?

        Teakman lets make sure your device is clear as a whistle! There is not a known audio issue with the Droid Razr M so it appears this may be an hardware defect with the device. To make certain that's not an internal issue, I would recommend completing a Hard Reset http://vz.to/1kEchad .

  • I keep getting the "Something went wrong" message on my Droid Razr HD also. I looked in my Settings, and I don't have a Cloud app - I have a Cloud Print app with nothing cached.  This is making it nearly impossible to use the phone - please help!  So far,

    The details you're providing are very helpful, Maj_Dad. With airplane mode enabled,
    there would be no message because that disables celluar data. I would recommend
    tying that mode with WiFi to see if it still happens. It sounds like this issue
    has something to do with one of the applications on the device.

  • My Droid RAZR M randomly erases my text and resets my screen, HELP!

    I purchased a DROID RAZR M back in Nov. 2012 after eharing many good things about it.  I've been a DROID fan since day 1 and havent had too many issues.  RIght now I am stationed overseas in a country called Kyrgyzstan and we have Wi-Fi throught the whole base.  SInce I left the USA, my phone will randomly erase text that I type or reset the screen or **** of movies I am watching.  Its like the moment I left the USA my phone lost its mind.  Is there anything I can do?   Also do they make a anti-virus software for phones?

        @rlmurray3
    I, first, would like to thank you for your service.We truly appreciate your dedication to our nation.
    I have reviewed the information that you have brought forth.It does sound like the phone has a mind of its own since the move. I would suggest clearing data and cache on the device. You may do this by entering the Web Browser, selecting Menu and Selecting Settings. From the the “Advanced” Section select Privacy and Clear Browsing Data.
    I would also suggest clearing data and cache on any application that is used often.  You may do this by choosing Settings, selecting Apps, once you have reached apps. Slect the “All” tab and select “force stop.” Once you have completed this, you will be able to clear data from the “Storage” section.
    I’m sure you will find this information beneficial. Let us know if you have any additional questions.

  • Droid Razr M update and text messages

    After my droid razr m updated the other day, it now has to download text messages. One last night took about 30 minutes to download. It never did this prior to the update. I received messages from some people throughout that day. Prior to the udate, no download, just text message. After the update, download.
    How do I get it to stop the download and just show the texts like before?

    I am having the same issue, my phone was perfect for me before the GREAT UPDATE, then it overheated, shut off whenever it felt like it, freezes whenever, stopped ringing, text messages would take forever, kept getting "downloading" message in text, my group txt sent one txt repeatedly to everyone in the group for a whole day had to turn off my phone, so it would stop, people blocked me until I could get that fixed. Finally I went to the Verizon store and a lovely young lady replaced my phone, when I got it in the mail, the new one wouldn't even power on (really?????) sent that back finally got one that worked properly for about 3 months now it is randomly shutting down again!!!!!
    I can turn off auto updates on my pc I want the ablity to turn it off on my phone as well!!!!!
    It is the phone and the updates that are not compatible, just because your techs thought of something new doesn't mean that it's good for me, or just stop making blanket improvements as all phones are not equal..Example apparently my Android won't work with that same upgrades as an S4, seeing as how their 2 different phones.(duh)
    Frankly i have no problem with the customer service people, you have to stand by your company its your job I get it, but you guys need to take these forums seriously and stop acting like puttng something on here is going to make a difference!!!!
    Oh yeah and now this phone is starting to cut off randomly like the other!
