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 was wondering if I were to purchase the HTC DNA for retail pricing to keep my unlimited data plan. Would the bootloader be unlocked on the retail version of this phone?
Happy Thanksgiving!
Thanks

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

Sorry for the duplicate as i posted wrongly on general section rather than Q&A
Hi,
i am planning to buy the Verizon Droid DNA without contract from Amazon wireless and planning to use it overseas(Singapore).
i know the phone is GSM unlocked and i can literally use it with any GSM network and that gave me a confidence to buy it,
Do i really need to activate the phone with Verizon?
regards

no i got one and poped my tmo card in and it worked
I can't get past activation. How do I activate when using AT&T sim card?
Take out the SIM card and restart the phone.
