Again, this phone and update is solid with nothing to fix. With this phone Android and Moto have arrived.
When out of the box you have a phone that works.
My next task is the get Tether working
A Guy over on the "other forum" is having major data dropping issues. I'm curious about the update and wondering why I haven't rec'd it. I'm totally stock. Went into about phone and system updates but it says I'm up to date. But I'm on .744?? Guess they're pushing them slowly as usual...

To get tethering to work with your RAZR. First download the wireless tethering app 3.1 beta 7. Install of course. Phone must be rooted. Also download rom
manager and open rom Manager and and go to. Fix permissions let that run. And the restart phone. Now tether your heart out.

I updated a moment ago from stock to stock.
So far it seems to be smoother. I meant really reminding me of the word "silky"
but I can't get Vibrant Feedback of stock multitouch keyboard to work even I ticked it at settings.
Sound feedback of the multi touch keyboard is fine.
Anyone else having issue like this?
The physical key haptic feedback when I press anything is still there. So I assume it is the software issue only.

Went and got a new SIM today and it fixed it a bit, but my signal was much better before. I'm at my work desk, and with the old update, I always had 4g. Now I'm 3g. I get 4g when I leave.

Just updated from the file on droidforums & the voodoo ota root keeper from the market works perfectly to reroot after the update. The only issue apparently is when safe strap is used because of the modifications to the preinstall partition. I hadn't moved from bootstrap yet so everything worked.

no update in my part of GA yet either.
after about 40 hours
my battery life is down with this update
my 4G is now dropping
i would not update my phone @ this point with this update
I'm 100% stock and after the update its running very smooth!! The stock launcher seems to have gotten faster?? Camera and over all performance is better. I don't know about data yet because VERIZON'S DATA IS DOWN AGAIN! but other then that its very good for me. Been running this for about 10 hours.

There have been a lot of 3G and 4G outages in the past several days. Make sure you're not a victim of that. There are DEFINITE issues this morning. I don't have the update installed, totally stock phone - and yesterday and today I have no 4G at work. I'm on a 4th floor by a window. I normally have a great 4G connection here.
Everyone Else: There's no trick you can do at this point to get the update. It's not released officially, it's only been sent out to a few beta testers. You are either going to get it by checking for the update, or not. Eventually they'll release it to everyone soon.
I'm in the same boat as mistawolfe, the update has made things much worse for me on the data side. On my way to work today, I had NO data for more than half the time, and only 3G the other half of the time. While at home, I have always had strong 4G and that has not changed after the update. But at work yesterday after I applied the update, it was the same thing, only 3G or NO data. Same today, more than half the time I have no data, and the other half only 3G. Going back and forth between no data and data is unacceptable. 3G/4G switching is fine, but this is horrible. 1/2 the time I can't even use the data. Terrible. I would not recommend this update.

Missed that, thanks. Talk about a strange coincidence, but at least it gives me hope (Although I'm still a bit weary as it started yesterday morning for me right after the update). Anyway, will hang tight and see if things get better. Hard to believe we are having another 4G/data outage again not even 2 weeks later! Big time growing pains for Verizon
Hey all
My 3g dropped after a 2-3 weeks flashing the china ICS
Is very wierd..anybody have any suggestion?
My 3g randomly dropped yesterday, came back up after a reboot. I wonder if Verizon had a glitch.

I'm on stock, any time my 3G vanishes I just reboot and its back, the first time it happened I didn't think to do that and took it to the verizon store and the guy put in a new SIM card, I'm betting that was probably a waste of time now.
Haha..actually when im at GB back tgen ,i dont have any problem with 3g.but after a few weeks on ICS China,it just slow..
I suffer almost the same issue these days. Suddenly 3G and 2G signal drop, and after 10 seconds it restore, I have no idea of it.

I was on the original ICS leak and was pretty happy with it for quite a while. Decided to try one of the other ROMs, and almost bricked. RSD back to GB, and all of a sudden my performance and speed went through the roof. I didn't realize just how much my phone had slowed down on that leaked ROM.
As such, I have decided to stick with a full stock GB until the official ICS is released.....at least that's my decision for the time being. It could change by this afternoon, but since I accepted the 181 fw it's probably not worth messing with.
I have actually been surprised at how satisfied I have been with GB since I switched back. I'm normally on the bleeding edge and used ICS since the Galaxy Nexus, but maybe I'm just tired of reloading my phone/FW every other week.
Few random thoughts from a holiday weekend.

I don't think this is a bug with any roms or ICS. Been happening to me for a while. I'm completely stock on Razr Maxx and never rooted or flashed any roms. It's a known bug for us Razr users. Don't know if it's Motorola or Verizon at fault but it's very annoying and they need to quit messing around and hire people who can give customers satisfaction for choosing their phone and carrier.

Ok I have tried everything I can think of so I am coming to you guys for help. My razr maxx keeps power cycling. It is not rooted and it is on ICS. It has a red little circle where the signal bars are. I have turned on and off airplane mode. I have done probably 4 hard wipes both manually and by going to through the settings of the phone. I don't know what is wrong with it or what I can do to fix it. I wanted to know if flashing the ICS update on there manually would help fix this? Any help would be very appreciated.
Thanks
If worse comes to worse you can manually install the .214 leak (if on cdma) go to droidrzr.com click forums find development and there's a upgrade guide and I believe u can downgrade to .211 if wanted.

You don't ned to factory reset to do the update. And it is only a small update to fix roaming and some radio improvements. Not that bad at all.
I was rooted and on a custom ROM. I used Voodoo OTA Rootkeeper app from Play Store to backup root, temporarily unroot and then take the new OTA update.
Once update was complete and phone rebooted, I went back into VooDoo and restored root. I did another reboot to fully restore root privileges. And all is good again. And stock ROM has new update and I can still go and use a custom ROM if desired.
Hope this helps ya.
Already updated, Gains in performance already!

Oh, sorry, I didn't mean to insinuate that a Factory Reset was needed to DO the update, I had already did the update, as you can see in the screen cap! But like the last 2 updates, I figured this latest one could stand a Factory Reset in order to improve system and app stability, as well as provide additional performance gains intended by the update (at least that was the case with the last update, maybe not the 1st). When I did the last update, early last year, the factor reset GREATLY improved my phone's battery life, system stability and performance. However, after using this new update for the last 24hrs, I have (oddly enough) seen some performance gains! I haven't done the factory reset yet, and will hold off to see if performance continues to be evident.
And by performance gains, I'm referring to app speed, reduction in lag (though, of course, the phone is still laggy as all hell, but it's a lot better), and animations/transitions.
Oh, and thanks so much @beyedup for the quick rundown of what was done in the update!
I haven't seen an all inclusive list but what I did see is very minor at most. Seems like it was directed at Canadian carrier issues.
Boot Loop after 98.72.165.en.us
My phone seems to be boot-looping following the attempted install of 98.72.165.en.us.
I get the android on his back with his guts open and a Red triangle and exclamation point inside.
The phone then reboots and appears to come up normally, but within a minute or two, it indicates that it is powering down.
It then reboots again, I see the android again. blah blah blah.
Suggestions on fixing this would be appreciated.

When you see android with red triangle,press vol- and vol+ and then find the option factory reset.

Has anyone actually seen improvement from this yet.. Because if its radio improvement I pretty sure we didn't need one. When I have full 4G signal there is no other devices faster.. I've compared the xt912 to the HTC DNA and One, Samsung Galaxy Note, and the new Droid line as well as many others including the N4 and 5 and the xt912 beats them by a large margin every time .. Wouldn't be worth the update if that went backwards! Just curious if anyone actual noticed improvement before I let this update fly!

I haven't had the opportunity to test it yet, but the radio needed MAJOR improvement. The 3G/4G radio may have been fine, but the BT radio was a problem. Ever since the first JB update, the only apps that work through my car's BT are the stock music app and Poweramp. Everything worked great in ICS. I've read numerous posts with people having the same issues with various makes and models of cars.
EDIT: Survival mode in Super SU Pro worked great with this update.
Is it necessary to unroot to do the update?

No, but it may be necessary to re-root after the update. I'm not sure if any of the current root methods still work with the new update, but OTA root survival methods still seem to work fine. For all I know, the current update may not even be killing root access in the first place, but you should definitely play it safe by using something like OTA Rootkeeper or SuperSU Survival mode (Pro only).
Its a small update for Canadian users. It's nothing major. Everything else is the same. I had to unroot to install and reroot after update. xt912 Verizon CDMA

Why do I get an update fail message with this update? I have downloaded the update many times. Android man eventually lays on his back with red triangle. After this is the reboot with fail message.

Did you unroot if rooted? If not, backup your root. Then unroot. Download OTA update and let it install. Then go back and restore root. I used Voodoo OTA Rootkeeper. This time it has worked fine for me. I know I've heard from others that it has failed to restore root for them.
I am not sure if RAZR Utility will still root with this update. I haven't heard anything yet if it will or not.
Hope this helps.

I know a factory reset might not be desirable, but it may be necessary in your case. I would backup any app data you don't want to lose, then go in to recovery mode and do a factory reset, then download Rootkeeper, backup root and temp unroot, then attempt to update.
I was hoping this update would fix a problem with bluetooth that I have had since jelly bean came to our phones. The volume control does not work. It's either full volume or no volume when connected to a speaker. The problem is pretty well documented on the web. I had my fingers crossed. No luck...

You and me both! Ever since JB, BT functions with my car stereo have been severely limited. I have to turn off BT to use navigation or any other app that isn't either the stock music app or Poweramp. Unfortunately, this update didn't change a thing.

it's probably just a way for them to try and lock the phone back down before the 4.4 release.

looks like 4.4.2 is released to those nordic countries for the n7105. the people on the att note2 forums are playing with it. Hoping for a port if everything goes well for them.
This update its very telling. A simple roaming fix that also kills root. Looking like my last samsung phone and maybe the end of VZ for me.
There's a pdf you can view before you download the update. it lists an update for Galaxy Gear, improvements for wifi, maps, voicemail notifications, bunch of other crap. comes with amazon appstore preloaded. im not rooted so i guess i'll go ahead and download it lol.
theyve been killing root with every update. id be more surprised if they allowed root to stay.

The only thing I care about is My free WiFi Hot Spot.
The last update KILLED my free FoxFi hot spot. But I was able to get it to work again by
(1) turning the phone off,
(2) removed the SIM card,
(3) retried FoxFi, without the SIM card, That got me passed Verizon's Subscription Check and Allowed FoxFi to install a security certificate.
(4) turned the phone back off and reinstalled the SIM card.
(5) turned the phone back on and my FREE WiFi Hot Spot has been working every since.
Could someone that has already taken the latest update try this and let me know if it will work ?

Update and root.
Just wanted to say, I was rooted running the stock rom and I took the OTA update this morning. I still have root access according to Super SU and Root Explorer. I have no idea about Foxfi, I don't use it.
I just downloaded and installed FoxFi, and while I'll admit I'm not familiar with the app, I got it set up on my phone and was able to connect and surf the web on my sons tablet. I didn't have to use the steps in the post above though. Hope that helps?
