hi, recently bought this smartphone (motorola razr xt12 from verizon) i want use it here in usa with another company like t-mobile or prepaid or something ,already install ICS 4.0.4,i know we can use the gsm or global overseas, my question is you guys know some method or tutorial how to
unlock this kind of smartphone to any company in usa? (GSM of course) thank in advance guys.
Im in the same boat
I got this phone not Thinking it was strictly global only
I just came from a vzw iPhone 5 and a note 2 both got T-Mobile 3g
Now thinking id be good to go with the RAZR... i was wrong.
Apparently there is a method to enable. The u.s gsm radio
Looks difficult tho

Hi
Half ot the question is in the title,
Can I buy a phone like the Razr in the States for use in France, Europe ?
Because of the exchange rate, the prices are good, but are the American models exactly the same or ?
No. The US Verizon Wireless RAZR uses CDMA/LTE, not GSM/UMTS. It would be a reasonably priced paperweight in France.

Your MODEL is
THE MODEL YOU NEED IS THE GSM VERSION
Motorola Razr XT910
Maybe in future we'll be able to flash the GSM radio on XT912 and enable LTE functionality on XT910...
....but don't buy a 912: you need GSM NOW.
My wife and I are locked in to a T-Mobile family plan but she is in love with the new razr. Is it even possible to buy one online, root it, and flash a rom that would support T-Mobile? Any help would be awesome. Thanks
I believe the Razr is for use on CDMA networks such as Verizon. It will not be useable on TMobile.

Is it only CDMA, I thought it also had 2g,3g radio in it. Checking now.
Your only option would be to buy an international GSM Razr (XT910) I reckon. Maybe take a drive to Canada?

Correct
Xperia x10(Feralabs Rom) After trying all roms it was my Fav.
Now on the RAZR.
I see you Drinking that ¥Hateraid¥
Thank you guys.
I have a buddy with a XT912 that he can't dump due to a bad ESN.
He is willing to give it to me, I have heard rumors that you can re-flash the XT912 with the 910 software to unlock the GSM part of the phone...
Will that allow it to work with AT&T?
The specs I have seen show the 912 has the radio built in, just locked.
Can you re-flash it for AT&T?
i would like to know as well. my gf has a droid razr.
At the moment is not posible
There is another post which can help and i also got the same problem

Lots of info but don't think anyone has it fully working on AT&T yet, I know I'm stuck with it seeing the sim but never connecting to network.

I'm going to buy a GSM RAZR (XT910) and have some questions :
1. Does it work with T-mobile network ? (3G / 4G)
2. How satisfied are you with this phone ?
it does not supprt t-mobile 3/4g (it will if t-mobile refarms the 1900mhz band in your are)
i am currently using it on simple mobile (t-mobile MNVO?), and get a throttled edge speed of 110-167kbps dl and up to 1000kbps upload.
i will be swtitching to t-mobile soon, as i get great reception with this phone compared to other phones i have had, and simple doesn't even use all the t-mo towers.
the only downside is if you want a white/blue/or purple razr it won't be a maxx. so the battery life is only ok. otherwise i love the phone, it works great and i havent had any problems with it.
Can u unlock the Verizon razr and use it on Straight Talk? And 3g/4g?

Straight Talk has the option for t-mobile or AT&T sims, so with the at&t sim you would get 3/4g
from what i know you can't unlock it for domestic carriers yet, they are working on it.
so for now you'd need the xt910 (xt912 is verizon, 910 is simfree)
