Back to the RAZR. - Motorola Droid RAZR

So I started with a RAZR when it was the buy one get one free. Had 7, Verizon offered me a nexus, had 3 of those. Trade the nexus for a htc rezound and a ps3, had 2 rezounds, traded that for a Droid 4, traded the Droid 4 for a RAZR. Biggest circle every of phones for me! Lol. And I might have a gut that wants my razr for a nexus, but I don't think I'll trade.
Just thought I'd share my trading cycle.

I've bought and sold multiple phones on CL without issue. Not everyone on CL is out to cheat you. It's not that difficult to figure out if someone is trying to cheat you either. I've walked away from cheaper prices because I had a bad vibe from someone on CL. Always go with your instinct.

I won't even bother to go into the store, you can check their IMEI# right from VZW website. http://www.verizonwireless.com/b2c/estore/certifieddevice/cd If they aren't willing to provide the number, I move on to the next one.

Ditched My RAZR

Tired of waiting for ICS and succumbed to Samsung's new offering, I sold my RAZR and bought a Galaxy S III.
No more a disgruntled user. I am a happy user now
I'll be back when RAZR HD is released as a world phone equipped with MAXX battery, until then farewell!
Then when jellybean is released you will be disgruntled again lol
Unhappy user is unhappy.
Too bad unhappy user will never be happy (there's always something better than what he has).
I wont buy mot again, unless they unlock the bootloader.

Oh, no this again. This is the "I still want to be friends" speech once more. You found a new phone and we're getting kicked to the curb. Well, I hope you and your new phone are very happy together.
I should tell you that I've heard stories about her. She's very loose once she's had too much data. Word has it her unprotected browsing activities left her with a really nasty virus. I just want you to be safe.
We'll miss you. I've left all your things packed in boxes by the forum front door. When you pick them up, please leave your key on the hook inside the door and lock up as you leave.
Goodbye.

In some way i understand and even envy you. GSIII is far more superior than RAZR, with hardware and software.
Software update from samsung? And who need it today, if there is large XDA movement. New roms, roots method, great camera mod from yesterday. If samsung does not provide JB for gs3, developers form here will do it!
And what we have? Nice, slim (only original razr) phone with locked bootloader and webdock app, that 97% of users do not use because absence of dock.
Motorola will forget about this phone when 4.0.4 will be aired (someday, if they don't forget), and there is no visible chances for unlocked bootloader, although motorola promised this (i bet there is a inside joke about this in their company).
I am afraid, that motorola can jump with something stupid, after release of the RAZR HD.

horror stories of Razr HD owners teasing you for not having a current flagship device

Ok it is now official we razr xt912 owners are no longer top dog. We are now reduced to a pile of crap as the new razr hd series is out today. The new flasgship owners will glare and snicker and taunt us xt912 owners. They tell us size does matter as their is bigger then ours.... Women will not start to drop us for razr hd owners as we are yesterdays news. We will need to take phoneagra from the makers of Viagra. We can kid ourselves that we can use the same launcher but its all about the screen and battery babby and that dual core s4 man! Them chicks dig that speedy duel core! I even hear of a report of a divorce being filed today that a women dumped her husband because he refused to get a razr hd so she dumped his azz. Oh the stigma...
we can kick their Ass only with Custom ROM's, hope we'll get more talented Developers.

Goodbye Sprint and Photon

I'm getting close to saying goodbye to Sprint and sadly my Photon. Going to be making the jump to Big Red here soon, probably to a Galaxy S3. Price points just finally got the best of me. Huge thanks to Joker Bill and the rest of the devs, as well as everyone who has even remotely contributed to how far the Photon has come with the lack of support from Moto. That all being said, anyone have any personal preference or thoughts for android devices on Verizon? Far as I can see its basically the S3 or go home.. i want something new and fresh, with backing here on XDA, and please don't ever mention the word Motorola. NOT going to happen, no more Moto for me.
New and fresh you say? How about the N4? That's what I am going to switch to.

Even if this was a great phone, there was no reason to stick to 2.3.5, had to sell it
A Pantech Burst with ICS is far better than the Photon with GB and for 100 bucks, no reason to miss motorola.

I abandoned ship too. My job gave me a Blackberry an unlimited plan that I can tether with, and as long as I keep away from illegal and porn sites, I'm good!

You would have to change the ESN and that is illegal. best bet is to just use it on metro pcs or cricket and some other carrier like that. You can always buy a broken iphone,and swap internals.

I've had guys ask me to help them setup their DNA and I had taken them under my wing to teach them more advanced things with previous devices.
They got some AMAZING deals on DNAs through eBay and craigslist. So there are deals to be had if you can wait on one of those perfect deals.
One of them bought a Verizon presidents cabinet employee edition for about half what s regular device usually goes for.

I just a week ago purchased a Droid DNA from craigslist for $150!! Brand new in box never opened it was a insanely awesome deal.To be honest I hate it coming from a nexus 4 HTC sense feels way to lagged down for me. If anybody is interested I am planning on selling it listing it on swappa but if anybody is interested in here could work out something. Much rather have this phone go back into the android community rather than selling it to somebody in Asia who is just going to resell it for a higher proffit.
