RAZR have 2 types: XT910&XT912
Isn`t XT912 a global phone ?
what the fxxx.
developer.motorola.com/products/droid-razr-xt912
then what`s this there?
Just have a look at the Connectivity of the URL.
xt912 - for verizon
xt910 - for world
The hardware is there but I think the radios have been disabled.
The XT910 only has GSM and WCDMA bands while the XT912 have LTE, CDMA, GSM, and WCDMA bands...

the US version is CDMA I believe and outside it is GSM minus the 4G LTE radios..
It was stated from the start/announcement of the phone that theres going to be 2 variations from the get go. 1 CDMA/LTE fro the US (VZA) and 1 GSM/HSPA+ for global.
HI,
My Cousin is going to buy a droid Razr from Craigslist and send it to me here in india
I wanted to Know
1. He is going to buy a Droid Razr Verizon Lte phone will it work in india on GSM.
2. If not then any other Version that i should buy?
3. If yes then would i have to root it and then it would work.
I would really Appreciate if you could help me out.
Check out the frequency bands the Droid RAZR supports. Theoretically, it should work on CDMA networks in India. The LTE bands won't work (obviously) due to the lack of 4G LTE support in India. But Reliance and Tata Indicom CDMA networks should support the phone just fine.
Take Razr XT910 cuz it will support GSM as Droid by verizon is exclusive product for verizon network if u have to take their product then u need to break contract with them so to avoid complecations take XT910

Well, LTE is GSM-based. SO you should be able to. But yeah, the complications are a lot. Just get the XT910 then. Otherwise get it for CDMA, no issues with that. And don't worry about it being exclusive to Verizon, it can be unlocked locally.

Well That is basically what i want to know. If i go for LTE verizon can i use it in India.Anybody who is using it.
The Reason for me stressing on LTE verizon is Because My Cousin has got it for me.
So If there is nothing i cant do it then ill ask him to sell it again.
- Anyone who is using LTE VErizon in India?
Sell it. XT912 does not work on GSM full stop.

If you absolutely must have a RAZR, yes, you'll need to do just that.
I'd recommend buying a less awful phone full stop, though.

GSM support Verizone Droid Razr?
GSM capability of droid razr??
as per below link Razr support GSM networks.
droidmatters.com/news/verizon-confirms-global-gsm-roaming-coming-to-the-droid-razr-razr-maxx-htc-rezound-and-lg-spectrum/
does this conclude we can use it on GSM network like ATT or in India?
I have the XT910 version of the RAZR and was wondering. What does it mean?
Can I use it on TMOBILE?
Sent from my XT910 using XDA
pretty much yes.
the xt910 is the gsm version of the razr.
it only gets 3g on at&t frequencies.
so you'll be stuck on edge unless t-mobile refarms 3g in your area (you also may need to cut your sim as the razr uses a micro sim, the only difference that i know of is size)
I put NY Sim in but it still said, no Sim. Ima go get an official one. So I wont be able to use tmobiles 3g or 4g?

The Droid Razr XT910 only has 3G and HSDPA (evolved 3G or "fake" 4G) so no LTE no matter what your carrier supplies.
I dont want lte. But will it work on tmobiles 3g or 4g? And does it automatically means its "unlocked"

The Droid Razrs from verizon will be unlocked for gsm global use within next ICS update. Some users in sone versions of the leaked ics are reporting its fully working thought gsm networks.
Hope this is the info you're looking for.
Cheers

Kinda but thanks for the reply. I already have a GSM version of the RAZR, NOT the Verizon branded version. So shouldn't my phone work with Tmobile out the box and also even on GB 2.3.6
Which is what it came wit. I cant even install Verizon roms on mines w/o the gsm patch I guess

It will work on T-Mobile's 1X network, EDGE. You cannot get 3G unless you are using AT&T in the US because the XT910 doesn't support T-Mobile's LTE, HSPA, or 3G frequencies.

Oh! I see. Read the above post from [TSON] its an accurate information.
BTW. It's 'Droid Razr XT910' in OP but all 'Droid' phones are from verizon. Your's are Motorola Razr XT910. This may be usefull for future reference.
Cheers
So, I was wanting to buy an unlocked verizon phone (XT910) on ebay. But I live in Brazil and wanna use it with a GSM carrier. Is there any problem?
Thanks

Yes its a CDMA phone which is old tech which is not compatible with GSM. Try and buy the GSM one which is XT912 I think.
The XT910 is the GSM model and the XT912 is the CDMA Verizon model. As long as you buy an unlocked XT910 you should be able to use it on any GSM carrier.
Does Verizon sell gsm variant?

The Verizon Razr does come with GSM radios. I believe with the ICS update the global SIM capability has been unlocked. Check this thread for more info: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1619563&highlight=verizon+razr+gsm+radio
Hope this helps.
I am hoping someone could help me please, I am trying my best and I have spent about 5 hours searching online for the answer, to have different conclusions.
I was living in USA, purchased a Verizon droid razr maxx lte 912 from a friend. I did not use this in the USA, I left in the hope to use this phone in the UK.
Is this possible ?
Many thanks
No the xt912 is specifically for verizon and cdma which is in the united states. If you wanted to use it in another country or internationally, you would have to get the xt910. Hope this helped

If you have the xt910 razr you can use different sim cards with it. The xt912 razr is strictly cdma which is verizon

The phone will work with any GSM sim if used "outside of the US". It will NOT work on GSM in the US.
So yes, you can use it in the UK without any issues.
if your phone has been updated to ICs then its fully capable of being used all over the world for gsm usage ( but not in the US )
just insert any gsm sim
go to network and select gsm/umts option and thats it.
the XT912 razr and razr maxx both have unlocked gsm radios for all gsm operators outside US.
