Hi,
So, I left T-mobile since their 4G network is great if you are in the 100 foot radius that they actually have reception in. I just purchased the RAZR MAXX from Verizon today and I am looking through the motorola website out of boredom and I found this on the RAZR MAXX site by motorola.

It says on the bottom right ICS upgradeable. Just thought it was kinda funny lol
Yeah that is kinda funny. I just got the RAZR and i was told that they dont know when we are going to get ICS.

The only phone that's running an official ICS beta (that I'm aware of) is the GSM Razr that was released in China, the XT or MT 917 (Same shape as the Razr but with a 13MP rear camera and one or two other tweaks).
when we will get Jellybeans....Lol
There are CDMA ICS Roms available for the Razr for about 3 weeks now...
The best out seems to be Axiom Rom.... current verison is AB8 now... It is a port from the Nexus with some code from leaked verisons as well. Axiom is just about the same as CM9 but with a good bit of mods to it to make it much more stable and faster....those developers are working together to some extent...
I suggest if there is still a link to go over to the Developers site and look for it... or do a google search....

Don't believe everything you read on the internet. That's how World War II was started.
It's 5:30am on the West Coast and 8:30a on the East. Lazy suits that make millions don't do Jack before 12pm.
Give it time.
I bet that there will be no ics today :-D
Don't we typically see some sort of "whats in this release" document from Verizon before any updates. I remember seeing them on all the updates even the last minor one.

The update is coming very soon. An ICS update has been leaked. There are multiple people posting that they received soak test invites. None have posted that it has started. The update will come a few days after the soak test starts if there are no major issues. I would be surprised if it was more than a few weeks.

From what I understand the soak test was pulled do to a problem with the sideloading. They have to fix that issue before the soak testers can even test it. So who knows when we will get it now.

Sorry but I call BS. I doubt Verizon does phased rollouts based on ESN assigned to where you bought the phone. The overhead and expense of doing that is astronomical.
That and you have nothing to back it up besides wishy washy logic.
Got the raze m Yesterday and I must say that for so $99 with contract you just can't beat it. Little disappointed I bought razr Maxx then moto releases 3-4 killer phones soon after. ...it is what it is. Anyway razr m is a little on the small side which i like and its solid. The phone is a great size, it fits so naturally in your hand. The benchmark results from quadrant was nothing shy of 4467! I think that's impressive compared To my Maxx Which is upper 2700s. Does that extra .3ghz make that huge of a difference? This dual core rocking the snap dragon 1.5ghz is right up there with the HTC one x
Sent from my DROID RAZR using xda app-developers app
I think it's more of the Snapdragon S4 processor being better than TI-OMap. I don't care for benchmarks, it's about real world usage.
RAZR M is cool. I would upgraded to the Maxx HD though. You not getting much change from a Maxx to RAZR M in my opinion. Better processor and more recent software stuff but what else? Not trying to hate, just saying the HD RAZR's would of been a better upgrade for me.

I believe the size and the screen display is the same the current Razr/Maxx have. So that's not an upgrade if you're moving to the Razr M.

What phones are you referring to? Because the only new Motorola phone released after the RAZR MAXX was the Droid 4. There might have been a new color released for the Droid RAZR, but no new phones. The RAZR M is the 1st new phone released since February. Of course I'm only counting phones released on VZW.

The RAZR MAXX came out towards the end of Jan. The Droid 4 was in Feb. The RAZR M just came out in the 2nd week of Sept. That's a lot of time between phones for Motorola. I count 3 new phones coming out, the RAZR M and the RAZR HD and MAXX HD. The RAZR/MAXX HD phones most likely aren't coming until sometime around Thanksgiving. That would be a year after the 1st Droid RAZR was released.

The OP has a Razr Maxx, not the skinny Razr, so it's not even a year yet. A year is 12 months in the U.S.
Shows how much quality they put into each of their phones. It's clear they care more about putting out the most phones they can rather than focusing on quality such as their average 8MP camera work just to name something. For me it's about quality, not quantity. The Razr M is cool for a lower end release (save some people money). The Razr Maxx HD would of been enough of a successor from the Razr/Razr Maxx. What is the point for them to release the Razr HD? And I don't even care for the Razr i.
Well for me I would get the regular Razr Hd, I like my phone to be thin and its the same specs as the Maxx so why not? When i bought my razr the maxx was already out and i chose the regular razr because it was so damn thin i love it.
The only thing that really pisses me off about the new phones is that they are all thicker than the originals. I agree the maxx has an awesome battery but too me its not worth the thickness, even if it is slight.

I don't know, it's like some mornings I wake up sobbing. Then I get this feeling of impending doom, like I'm all alone and no one cares. I used to have hope when I would click on system update and something would download or I would read about an upcoming update. Now Moto rarely writes, only if they need some money. They shroud the request by making it seem that the money would be for a new better phone. But I know what it's all about, they don't need me. Good bye cruel world, it's just me and my Maxx now.

are you holding onto false hope that moto will send you a big fat galaxy razr nexus? Verizon may not be open to the new nexus certified program as google will control the update process. As we know verizon like to control the update process just ask the galaxy nexus owners. Apple is the only one to get a pass on the update issue. Perhaps Google needs to make sure that all androids no longer have custom skins and they all run the stock android and if users want custom skins they can download them like how they download launchers from the store.
So if rumor has it we will be getting JB on our Droid Razr's and suspected time frames are saying Q'1? http://www.droid-life.com/2012/10/1...-which-phones-will-get-the-update/#more-86510
Question is where are the leaks? With ICS the leaks were out for months before its initial release! I'm ready to start seeing real moto leaks! :good:
But also in other news Rumor over on Droid-Life is that the Razr/Maxx may be recieving 4.2.2 a.k.a. KLP Q'2/3
so are we going to bypass JB and go straight there? http://www.droid-life.com/2012/10/2...-and-key-lime-pie-update-schedule/#more-87108
I'm just looking for answers are they using different update servers now and we can't access them like we could
before, or is no one looking or tried yet because we know its coming?

Motor can say the razr will get it... However Verizon must approve it. Vzw can say no we want to make them buy a new phone such as the razr hd at full price if they don't qualify for a discount which by the way c Verizon wants to end device subsidies.

All I know is if verizon doesn't want us to keep our phones then don't sell any good phones!!! If they want us to upgrade phones then don't charge us $200 flipping dollars for a new phone every couple of months or full price!! You sell better quality phones then your going to have to deal with people keeping them longer!! Moto has always made great quality phones software was a little lacking but now this RAZR is awesome both software and hardware I plan on keeping it as long as possible!!! Just hope the devs stay on it.

After a year and then some, I'm signing off on the RAZR. I just got the Sony xperia zr. The battery is not a patch on the maxx but I needed a phone that was faster and the RAZR was just getting a little too slow.
So with a heavy heart, I move on. If anybody in India wants to buy a rooted RAZR maxx that's a little bruised, hit me up in a pm. Otherwise, I wish everyone here the best. I'm sure I'll be back if and when Motorola decides to reenter the Indian market.
Till then, it is adios from me on this forum. It's been an awesome run and I learnt so much in the past year from the awesome devs here. Wish you guys the best.

there is a dearth of cdma phones with no telecom company or handset manufacturer offering goods handsets for the cdma crowd.
Being camped for new phone for 8 months, i'm waiting for motorola just because i want my phone to be a motorola that's why i am still sporting with my trusty Razr. I recently changed the battery and i have a RAZR MAXX now, it is a different experience.I easily get 2 days even if i play games for hours, watch videos and 3g browsing. Have no fear of empty battery. It is a good reason for me to stay with it until new motorola line up appears.
I even just bought a new Droid Razr white for my wife. So,I use her Droid Razr Maxx now. It's a 'lil bit slow but it's still acceptable for daily use and it's a 2011 lineup so I don't complain much about it. I love its build quality and design. It's still the lovable design android phones for me. If you got a new phone,don't sell it. Keep it always coz its design is the best around.

Yeah just got ahold of a brand new white razr myself. Sure you could say it's a little bit dated from a hardware standpoint, but damn right it's still able to hold its own against the competition, I'm saying this coming from several iphones - not that these are references either but I'm enjoying my razr so far. And yeah it absolutely blows in white. Would have loved to get the battery longevity of the Maxx but aside from the battery, both phones are exactly the same and it did not justify the steep extra cost for me.
I am moving on from RAzr as well, i am considering to go for xperia zl....

Still the same ... batterielife ist awsome
Yep. The battery in the maxx still brings me back to this forum. But I tried using it today and somehow it just doesn't appeal to me anymore.
The laggyness just kills the goodwill of the battery. But given that the Sony xperia zr doesn't have a forum on xda, I miss being part of the modding scene.
So expect me to pop up once in a while out here. And don't hold your breath on Motorola coming back to Asia. Still not on their radar apparently.
