Just bought a new Droid Razr Maxx that is on version 4.0.4 and it won't allow me to update the firmware. Says its up to date. The phone is not rooted. Any help?

Depends on where you live,for some countries there's an update,for some there isn't.
But you can always flash JB with RSD Lite,if you want.

Well, I'm in the US and it still won't let me update. I've tried over wi-fi and even doing a factory reset and it still stays stuck on 4.0.4.
It's not about where we are.. It's about where we bought and what firmware it has..:/

Still no love for my Rogers XT910.

Hate to tell you this, but that is not entirely true as I just manually checked yesterday. So that's not the case.
Sorry I meant GSM xt910.
I got it at the us...let me know if you want one and I will send where I got it from.

I think the point is that this update has been rolling out for a while now (over a week) for many other users (I received it the day I received my phone last Friday).
Let me start first by saying, this is my second maxx because I rooted and bricked the first one the first day I had it.
I'm posting this to see if anyone can confirm a wifi tether app working on the stock rom (rooted of course) before I root this one because when I root, I'm gonna leave it on the stock rom til the bootloader is unlocked and cwm has a fully working recovery for this phone.
I am currently unrooted with firmware. 181.XT912.Verizon.end.US.
Thanx in advance.

Ill check out the wifi tether app in a few minutes here for u, but cwm does have a fully working recovery unless u mean something different than I'm thinking of. And the boot loader may never be unlocked as far as I know

There is a mobile hotspot hack on these pages somewhere. I couldn't get any tether apps to work but the hack worked wonders. Been using it a lot the last few days I've been on vacation.

I just use FoxFi for a tether app and works great
Foxfi works well and doesn't require root.

FoxFi is a free app in Google Play, and does not require root. BTW, it's very doubtful that Motorola will ever unlock the bootloader.

Yes, I've been using FoxFi for about 4 months now, and VZW is non the wiser. My bill has stayed the same.
Just a note about FoxFi- occasionally, when you turn the hot spot on, it won't show on the device you want to send wifi to. Turn the hot spot off and back on again, and normally, you're good to go. It's not a perfect app... but it is free, does not require root, and won't effect your bill.
Is anyone else getting the message
Can't check for up updates at the time
Try again later

As of 5:30am eastern this morning, I was able to download the official ICS OTA for VZW. I'm not part of the SOAK test, either.
I really wouldn't bother update checking til closer to the end of the week.

Looks like they're doing a phased, perhaps regional rollout to the public. I'm in Maine and received the update notification and downloaded ICS this morning. Haven't installed yet . . . waiting to make sure that I won't lose (or can at least easily regain) root. Yeah, I know . . . buk buk buk bukAAK

Last info I got was that the XT 912 will only work on global GSM carriers. It has been locked from USA GSM carriers. I have heard some reports that some people can get it to work on AT&T with voice only no data. If my information is outdated I apologize hopefully I helped in some way.
Edit: I thought I would add that I own an XT 910 and XT 912, currently operating on Deutsche Telekom (German T-Mobile)

After many replacement devices, Verizon is sending me a different device for this current one (Droid DNA) The only problem is that I've rooted this one after installing the JB leak. I'm not concerned about having the leak on my phone because I can just say I got it on Christmas through OTA, but I do need to unroot. How does one go about doing that? I have Safestrap installed btw.

Go into your super user app, there should be a option to do a full unroot.
