Trading for a RAZR - Motorola Droid RAZR

I'm really sick of my iPhone, and miss the android world. A guy near me said he'll trade his razr for my iPhone 4. Should I do it? Last droid I had was the Fascinate.

Get an Android Device with unlockable Bootloader. The RazR is great, but it's so damn locked and right now we can't root it on JB (GSM) and no one knows when it will be possible. That would never happen with an unlocked Bootloader.
Without Root it's a pain and you can stay with your IPhone.

I have a tablet that I have rooted and my Razr, and I have never felt the need to root it. I can do everything I want and need to be able to do with it just fine without root access. It all depends on what the phone would be used for.

Is the AT&T lapdock limited to the Atrix 4G or will it work on the EU Atrix?, and what about dataplan, will I get 3G?

Thanks! Guess the dataplan limitations lies within the AT&T ROM then.
I know this is very old. but I want to ask if
the at&t lapdock works for other networks also internationally.. (with unlocked at&t attix)?
second do you recomend the atrix
and do you recomend the lapdock for that price of 70$.?

[Q] ICS Wipe

Only a short question. Is it very dangerous to flash without wipe?

No, worked for me.

Dangerous is when a blind man drives a car or jumping out from a airplane naked.
I dont think you will be harmed in any ways if you dont wipe.
Dont have a Arc S myself, but a friend does. He had some problems with a slow phone after updating to ICS. After a few days he gave the phone a last chance and wiped it, and not hes a happy user.
Only complaint he got is the higher battery usage.

It's not dangerous but many people reported very laggy devices and had to resort to re flashing with full wipe to resolve. You may be lucky though....

Scook is correct, its a quick job to reinstall stuff but worth it to avoid possible performance issues/glitches.

XT910 EOL

As the RAZRs begin to reach their EOL (end of life) product cycle (warranty finished, no more firmware updates, etc) why can't Motorola release an upgrade to unlock the bootloader for everyone.
I can't imagine the carriers would care and surely it would be a simple thing for them to do. They don't have to force this update on any users but simply make it optional for those that want it.
I upgraded to jb with the ota update and unfortunately lost root and to be honest have now lost interest in this phone. I was running AOKP V7 SP's version and it was running so well.
If Motorola techs happen to be reading this, then please consider it because at this stage I sure ain't interested in getting another Motorola and not because they are no good, far from it, it's because you restrict your users freedom with this phone. I will vote with my wallet and atm it won't be Motorola/Google.
Cheers, Teiva

well, think about it:
It is good that you lost interest in this phone, maybe now you will buy a new one from them
Yeah true. Maybe the new X serious
Sent from my XT910 using xda premium
They already said it won't be Motorola because of this policy and same applies from me as well
Be interesting to see how all the new phones being released are with their bootloaders. I guess if I could pick up a RAZR HD or RAZR MAXX HD at a reasonable price I would consider getting one (even though they only come with 1GB system ram). My XT910 seems to run quite well with the OTA JB update. I do miss flashing roms though.
Sent from my XT910 using xda premium
I doubt that they will change this policy
Bun for us who didn't update to EU JB and still have root Is still fun due to kexec
It's a shame considering these phones are no longer premium and flashing Roms makes the world of difference to the experience on them.

Jumped ship a few months ago to an N4 and not looking back. I loved my xt910, beautiful piece of hardware, too bad that Motorola kills it. Never again Motorola.

So true. Motorola is losing customers because of lock bootloaders. I have heard so many people say never again to Motorola(in person & on forums). So if a unlocked bootloader keeps people interested especially at the EOL. I think it would be good for business.

They are going to lose me for that very reason. All we ask is for the option to unlock our bootloaders. It's not something that everyone wants to do nor even knows about but that choice should be there for those that choose too.

This same situation like milestone and other smartphones with lock bl from M. Owners dream of unlock bl when new models came out. But thats was never happend. The policy has never change. Sry for bad eng.

I agree, if moto would just open their eyes to what their customers are saying they would have a Hugh support of long term customers. Moto has such great phones. To bad to see they are losing their loyal supporters.

My XT910 when I bought it was an awesome phone. Better then the galaxy S2s being sold at the time.
I'm not sure the reasoning behind Motorola's reluctance to unlock the bootloader on what can now be considered an old phone but it sure is going to impact my future decisions.
Sent from my XT910 using xda premium
I think that Motorola wants to cut off from the "older" models and concentrate on models developed jointly with Google. You could see for a while like google too did not know which way to go with M. From what I know this phone x (or whatever he's called) is already unlocked bl (! Sic)
But do not despair, we already have good ports based on kexec and the issue of time is full of functionality. Thank you for the great developers from xda
Greetings from Poland, third-world country (according to Motorola)

We will see, but as far as I remember there was unlockable bootloaders on some Motorola phones. I hope somehow we will manage to use our RAZRs to the max For Milestone there is still active development (great @nadlabak) so I hope @dhacker and @Hashcode won't abandon us
Still nagging about the bootloader? We have kexec and imo that is enough. We should instead be grateful for devs like hashcode and dhacker who makes this phone awesome.
I disagree, Motorola should thank these dev's for keep their products still awesome and users should donate to the dev's for their hard work.

Do you need a rooted phone to run kexec? If so then kexec doesn't help those with XT910, JB OTA, and no root.
Does an unlocked bootloader make it easier to root your phone?

yes, you need rooted phone for kexec due to necessity of having a custom recovery to install if from
unlocked BL is not related to the root
I feel it's more of a carrier issue than Motorola, they're a company, they want money, referring to at least the US models, the carriers want locked bootloaders, they'll get them.

It is impossible. There is no solution to get 3G running yet. Unfortunately!
Why is there no kernel dev with a bit skill to do it

Hello, newbie arrived, but then I don't understand why there's a xubuntu rom with 3g working here.
I suppose xubuntu has it's own 3G drivers?
I tried KatKiss 6.x (don't remember the exact version number) for TF300T without 3G, then installed "ppp widget 2" (or "ppp widget 3"?) from Google Play and started 3g manually from this application (widget). Android will not automatically switch from Wi-Fi internet to 3G internet (as like in stock), you must switch it manually. Some bugs discovered, for example, I could connect 3G and disconnect only once, when I want to connect 3G again, I had to reboot. device. Maybe will work on some other firmwares?
Hi,
any progress in this area? I have this model with 3g but at the moment i have clean orginal os from ASUS and it shows that i don't have sim card. after I put it nothigs starts. Any ideas how to configure APN?
And have you testes some new soft for this model?
i suppose it's physically defect with SIM card, or try another os (like KatKiss 6.x)
