How to identify a genuine make of the Atrix 4G?? - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

HI all,
I have just ordered an Atrix 4G from a popular newspaper's online shopping site, but my question is how does one identify the make of the phone?? To make sure it is genuinely made by Motorola and not a cheap China make???
Is there a way I can do that? Is there a way I can know if this is genuinely a new phone or a used one??
I think I am just going paranoid because this is my first online buy, but could someone plz help me..
Thanx!

Have there BEEN any reports of Atrix knockoff phones from China?

[Q] Where to buy Samsung Galaxy S II in Europe (Spain)

This might be an odd question in a wrong forum but I couldn't think of anywhere else to ask it!
My sister studies in Spain and she's going to return home 3 weeks from now.
I have the fabulous SGS and wanted to upgrade to SGS II and since SGS II won't be available in out country anytime soon, I thought it would be better if my sister bought it for me there.
I want my phone to be equipped with SAMOLED+ screen and the Exynos chipset. I don't really care about NFC.
The thing is I Googled but I didn't come across any retailer that distribute in Spain, and frankly I don't know how thing work over there.
I even looked for online shops but since I don't really know about any of them, I wasn't so lucky and in fact there are quite a lot of them and I don't really know which one is better!
She could order one online but there is another problem. Since my sister is not a citizen in there, she said she could get back the VAT tax on her way back if there was a proof of purchase for the product. However I don't know if she could do the same thing if the product was ordered online.
So I'm totally lost and don't know what my options are...
I would really appreciate it if you guys could help me out here.
Thanks a lot in advance

[Q] Can a US version bought in India be entitled for future upgrades?

I plan to buy the RAZR, but if buy a US version here in India, will I get future OS upgrades or will my phone be locked?
I had this same question whilst buying my HD7, the shop dealer showed me a T-mobile HD7 and a regular one. Fearing the fact that it will be locked while upgrading, I bought the regular(local) one. ( there was a good 10k difference between the two.)
And like we all know there are two versions, Motorola Razr and Droid Razr, if I pick the latter, will I not be getting any benefits/upgrades or there will be no problems at all?
Hi
Not relevant to the question you have asked, but I have one question and one point:
Question: How much cheaper are you offered the Droid Razr compared to the regular Razr?
Point:
I had found out re Blackberry, that the new 9930 (CDMA version of 9900) does not work with Vodafone in India as Verizon has put some block on it. Ebay sellers in India state that the 9930 will not work with Vodafone India.
Now, could there be a similar block with the Droid Razr as well?
As to your question, I am sure someone on XDA would post the upgrades as they become available for the Droid Razr, it might not be OTA, but I don't think I have heard of an update that has been released that XDA have not also made available manually.
Let me know if the Droid Razr is significantly cheaper than the Razr. If it is, I don't mind visiting Mumbai to pick it up at a cheaper price.

Hi..
Firstly, the device hasn't hit Indian shores...secondly, like I mentioned, when I wqs going to buy the HD7, the Tmobile was 10k cheaper than the legal/local one... I got my for 28 and the US version was 18k...that's a lot...thirdly you are right, someone would post the update here and I don't need to worry about the warranty, as the phone itself doesn't have any, considering its a US device...i am just wondering if its worth the gamble...
If the price difference is as big as your HD7 experience and I could check out a piece in store before committing my money, I would take the risk in buying a Droid Razr. Rs.10K buys a lot of additional stuff, pays a lot of bills...
(Also subject to no network blocks in India like I had read about the Blackberry 9930).

i honestly doubt there will be any sort of block...just that is shouldnt turn out to be a CDMA..as these type of phones dont have a SIM card slot...yes, agree 10k is a lot, but paying that extra 10k is also a lot of peace of mind.
If something goes awry tomorrow, i know i can screw Motorola's happiness. But if the phone is unlocked/jail broken and a US edition, i can say good bye to that 18k and head to the Himalayas...
Your call, all I wanted to know is that can I have a working/functioning US version here in India...?
Also do you know there is a Driod Razr and a Motorola Razr. Droid ones are for US and the rest are for global..

US version ie Driod Razr is a CDMA device and most networks in India are GSM so i suggest not to go for the US Droid Razr coz CDMA devices are generally locked to their respective networks and Indian CDMA operators wont entertain Verizon devices...

I have to agree. Its safe paying that extra bit. Also, am not planning to buy it anytime now seeing the current chaos of some having the green tint and not others...a couple of months lets say?

[Q] Razr Maxx - can be used in Portugal?

Hello all, I never had a motorola and coming from an HTC EVO 3D... so this phone is all new to me.
I was thinking in buy an razr maxx to use in Portugal. I can find some razrs to sell from verizon (so i guess they come from USA) but my question is to know if i can use it in Europe and more exactly in Portugal? Will it work fine with my Portuguese SIM card? Something i should know?
Other thing, can anyone advise me if this is a good choice? With so many new phones, like SII, SIII, ONE S, ONE X, should this be a good choice? Or should this be the best choice?
Thank you for all the information that you can give me and help me to decide.
Bump! I would also like to know if this will work since Im currently in germany

I no longer need this information as I've decided to buy another phone.
Thanks anyway.
Yes, if you're on ICS, then this phone will work on any GSM carrier if you put the SIM card in.

Bell Galaxy s2 LTE HD SGH-I757m, Battery Compatibly

Hello everyone, I`m in need of a backup battery for my Bell Galaxy s2 LTE HD. I can't seem to find any for this phone online, was hoping if anyone knew of any battery that is compatible. My Galaxy s2 LTE HD model is SGH-I757m
You can always buy a generic Samsung battery directly from Bell at their website. Just click Samsung and then your phone's name.
The price probably won't be competitive, but it's there if you cant find it anywhere else.
So thats our only option, i must say i do like this phone, but thiers no market or support for it, wich blows, i regret getting it
Found one 21.79 alot cheaper then what bell wants, here link for anyone whos looking http://www.batterybuyer.com/battery...galaxy-skyrocket-galaxy-skyrocket-p-7277.html
I'm looking for a replacement battery for my SGH-i757M. Looks like the model on the back of the battery is EB585157VA. I was not able to find any for sale, however, I found the EB585157VK. Specs are identical. Do you know if it will work with my phone? Any other suggestions on where I can purchase a replacement battery?
