[Nexus 4 General] nikeman513:
I have not received backorder email, nor delayed dilvery emails. Site still says 11/15/12, which is today, I expect to see tracking info soon. One CS talk to said that since I have not received tracking info yet, that means I'm back ordered. Like I said though, I haven't received a back order email. I saw the first 600 sales, and I am ranked 194 at 9:33. I suspect I should be on normal schedule and getting the phone this weekend if they went in chronological order. Talked to one rep who said I'm back ordered, and another who said if I haven't gotten the email back order by now then i'm in the clear. IDC what's going on...

[RAZR HD General] ethion:
Just bought this after using the Samsung Galaxy Nexus for the past year. I gotta say I'm blown away by the Battery life. With the Nexus I'd get maybe 12-14 hours before getting warnings at 15%. With the Maxx I went for 2D 5H and 10M to get to 5% battery. That was with normal usage or maybe even a bit more than normal because it was new.

The screen is great and very clear and bright.

Initially the camera was a negative and I took a few pictures inside in the evening with kinda weak lighting. They were dark and rather poor. Course the Nexus pictures in the same conditions weren't much better. Well I thought I'd try an alternate camera software and found a Jelly Bean camera version on the market. I installed this software and took another picture in the same condition and the new picture was far nicer that the stock camera. It was faster, brighter, clearer and better in just about every way.

Smart actions is amazing. I messed with tasker and never could get it working reliably. With smart actions I setup my work location and told it to not ring when I was in meeting and it worked perfectly. Now when I'm in a meeting my phone automatically silences itself and automatically sends a txt reply saying I'm in a meeting. Awesome!

I really couldn't be happier. The few addons that Motorola has like the smart actions, and the widget with the clock and weather are both fantastic and enhancements over the alternatives I was using from the market.

This phone is also solid and feels amazing. I'm stuned that this phone isn't the rave of the internet. I played with the S3 and it is nice but really I think this phone beats it hands down. Maybe the S3 and the Nexus both looked slicker but other than that this phone is awesome in every other way!!
[RAZR HD General] skinien:
Awesome! I'm thinking to upgrade from my Galaxy Nexus also and I can't decide between the S3 and the Razr HD MAXX. I'm leaning towards the MAXX because of the build quality and the battery life. Have you noticed lag compared to the Galaxy Nexus? I expect some lag because the Razr doesn't have Jelly Bean yet. But would you say it's comparable to Galaxy Nexus running ICS?

Also, have you noticed improvement in LTE reception (if you're in an LTE area)?

Thanks!!
[RAZR HD General] syntrix:
Low lighting is the bane of taking pictures. It's not the camera, it actually does well in dim areas... compared to iso3200 on a full frame sensor, but that might set you back $6,000+ in a real DSLR.

Control the lighting, use flash, photography 101.
[RAZR HD General] ethion:
I loved the looks of my galaxy nexus and loved that I could always have the latest software. But other than that there is nothing I'm missing from the razr hd maxx. I have not had any noticable lag. And thats running ICS with JB this phone will be even better. Sound quality on the phone calls is much better. The speaker is louder and better sound quality. Blue tooth in my care is better. With the Nexus I would get periods of really bad sound quality when talking on the phone with blue tooth. I harassed my car service people to the point where they reloaded my entire system with new software. I have a Infiniti G37. No change.... Since I've had the maxx my blue tooth is perfect and now I feel bad for chewing on the infinity people. I was certain the problem wasn't my phone since I'd reloaded the rom and all and I even had a warrentee replacement phone.

Honestly I can't think of anything I miss at this point and countless things I'm much happier about. This is the best phone I've ever had.

On LTE reception I'm not sure. I don't recall any issues at all. But most of the time I'm on wifi. But I've had issues on my nexus. From time to time lte would be looking ok but the network wouldn't be working. The signal would be gray and the only way to get it to work was to reboot the phone. That didn't happen often but did happen. In the early days the nexus had lots of lte / 3g issues but they seemed to get fixed.

The razr is still too new to me to have a really good ability to assess how it will be. This weekend as I'm not at work will give me more time to really tell.
[RAZR HD General] animez:
My upgrade its tomorrow and I plan to order the HD Maxx from Amazon Wireless. I was just wondering if I'll have to take it to a VZW store to activate it. I've always ordered directly from Verizon in the past and could activate on my own. Wasn't sure if that would be the case going through someone else. Can anyone shed some light on that for me? I'll be replacing a Thunderbolt, so I think the sim is a different size on the Razr.
[RAZR HD General] skinien:
Not sure if you have to take it in. If you're upgrading from a phone that has the same SIM, I think you can just pop it in.

On a side note, even if Verizon says your upgrade is tomorrow, Amazon will let you do the upgrade now. You should be able to get the subsidized price through Amazon today. Try to get the order in today if you want :good:
[RAZR HD General] syntrix:
I'd wait a day and go through VZW. If you have an issue later, at least you have the option of a replacement (CLN) down the road if they allow. Plus you can see the phone right there before giving them your money, make sure it's put together correctly, make sure the screen is good, etc...

Just my opine!
[RAZR HD General] animez:
Thanks for the tip, just ordered and it should be here Tuesday. Can't wait!
[RAZR HD General] skinien:
On the other side, it's nice ordering from Amazon because the phone comes boxed up and YOU get to actually open it up. Some people don't like their new phones being molested by a salesman's greasy hands :p

Also, Amazon states that after 30 days, all warranty matters will go through Verizon. So, after the first 30 days, there really isn't a difference between whether or not you bought it from Amazon or Verizon in terms of replacement issues.

Finally, it's $100 cheaper on Amazon's site. If you can wait out the shipping time, that's quite the deal!
[RAZR HD General] animez:
As the poster above pointed out the phone is $100 cheaper from Amazon. Plus I still don't pay sales tax on Amazon (for one more year). I have absolutely no worries about returning it either. Bought a 42" TV from Amazon that about 28 days after purchase one of our kids decided it needed a nice big starburst crack in the lower corner. We contacted Amazon and actually told them the kids did it. They said that was not an issue and promptly shipped us another one. Paid to ship the other one back too. I'm a Amazon customer for life (or until they screw me).
[RAZR HD General] skinien:
I just upgraded from my Galaxy Nexus. Here are my first impressions:

Pros:

- The screen in the Razr HD is much better than the GN. The screen looks more crisp, the colors more accurate, and the the auto-brightness is set at a higher level.

- The radio is much, much better. I'm getting stronger LTE connection at work and the speed tests are much better and more consistent. I'm getting dn/up speeds ~3 times faster than my GN. 25/dn 20/up compared to 7/dn 5/up.

- Battery life is no joke. I have the MAXX and just finished my first battery cycle. I gave the phone a beating and it lasted 27 hours on LTE with 4.5 hours of screen time. I know most phones take 2 - 3 battery cycles to start getting full potential of the battery so I bet it's even going to get better. With the same usage on my GN, probably would have gotten around 10 hours max.

- The build quality is amazing. It feels like a solid phone. iPhone's have great build quality and someone posted that this is the iPhone for men; I agree ;) The speaker is louder, the notification light is great, and I love the look.

- Smart actions are pretty cool. I set a couple up that conserve battery when less than 10% and turn the ringer off when I'm usually sleeping.

- This version of Blur (if it's even called Blur anymore) has to be the lightest skin from any OEM. The UI looks very much like the stock Holo theme.

Cons:

- I was on Jelly Bean with the GN and it was super smooth. This phone stutters occasionally and I know our 4.1 update will help. 4.0 -> 4.1 made a significant difference in smoothness on the GN so I would expect it to do the same on the Razr HD. For now, I've replaced the lockscreen (Holo) and launcher (Nova) with "stock" versions from the market and it made a huge difference.

- I think the phone technically measures smaller than the GN however since it has sharper corners, it feels bigger in the pocket. This really isn't a big deal at all because after a couple of days, I expect that I'll be used to it and won't even notice the difference.

I thought about what is important to me in a phone:

- Screen (size and quality)

- Radio

- Build quality

- Battery life

This phone has it all. It feels so good to use my phone any way I want and not worry about battery life at the end of the day. What good is a phone if it's dead or if you can't get good reception? I was a big fan of rooting and flashing ROMs and this phone eliminates that desire because the phone meets my needs. I'm looking forward to the 4.1 update as it'll provide the following things I miss:

- More fluid UI

- Google Now

- High resolution contact photos

- Expanded notifications

Finally, just a couple of tips for those of you who are coming from the GN:

- Installing Holo Locker gives you the JB lock screen. It's nice and fast and looks great.

- Nova launcher has the ability to replace the app icons with the AOSP ones.

- AOSP Gallery3D from the market is the AOSP gallary app that gives you picasa syncing - this is a must for me!

- For those CM users, Power Toggles allows you to throw toggles in your notification pane.

tl;dr?

Buy this phone.
[RAZR HD General] sc540i:
I ordered my Maxx HD from Simplexity online store few weeks ago. I used this store before for my previous Droid phone. Price of my Maxx HD is $175 no tax and next day service. Got the phone next day and activated it over their web site. It took me about 15 minutes from the time unboxed the package. Pretty cool! The saving got it from Simplexity vs. local Verizon is $120 on the phone price and $60 on the tax. I also bought a white razr HD for my wife. It was $50 less than my Maxx HD!
[RAZR HD General] TotalLamer:
I'm not the biggest Android fan on the planet... I'm okay with it, but not my -favorite- thing. I had been looking forward to the Lumia 920 for a long time and did end up getting it, actually. But I'm still in my return period and finally decided that, although I couldn't get the exact phone I wanted on Verizon, it was worth it to me to switch onto my family's plan so I could save ~$40/month or so over what I was paying on my own on AT&T. So I picked up a Droid RAZR Maxx HD on Amazon today... only $150! :good:

Verizon DOES have some WP devices... but the Lumia 822 has a mediocre screen and the 8X has inadequate storage space... so Android it was. Oh well.

[Bravo General] zetsui:
i have the unlock code from att but i was like "nah i don't need the instruction emailed to me...youtube bro" little did i know...is there a way to do it without a non carrier sim?
[Bravo General] windfreak33:
I don't think...

Just by coincidence I've been researching around lately to unlock my Motorola Bravo phone so that I can use it on any network I wish. I have already "rooted" it, which I remember was quite easy (I think what most people complain about is the amount of time it can take and the number of steps that can be involved), but, as you most likely know, rooting and unlocking are completely separate, independent functions on the phone. I searched Google, a bunch of message boards like this one here (this has always been my favorite...lots of extremely intelligent people), even some torrent files, but despite hours of searching, I unfortunately couldn't find any way to unlock the phone without just paying for the code. Yes, you can get it free from your carrier, but my account has been cancelled for months and I no longer have that option. Luckily paying for the code is very cheap and should cost you less dollars than the number of digits on your hands...if not keep looking b/c you're getting ripped off.

Theoretically, that is if my theory of how the phone functions is correct, there should be a way. I mean, if unlocking is done purely through software, there's gotta be a way to crack that part of the software and trick the phone into thinking the correct unlock code has been entered. I know the whole IMEI number to unlock code generation process uses an encrypted algorithm to work, so I don't know how difficult or impossible that would be, but that's one way I can think of doing it. Another way I thought of that seems like it should work, although I haven't heard anyone that has done this specifically say that it also unlocked their phone, is to totally wipe the phone and reflash it with a generic/unbranded version of Android. Would either of these options work anyone?
[Bravo General] skeevydude:
You might, MIGHT, be able to use the Defy Soft Sim Unlock, but its for a different baseband than what we use (not in /system/etc/motorola, but in /dev/block/mmcblk1p14 -- actual radio partition). I attempted to flash the Defy radio.img, but I ended up having to flash the sbf so don't flash the baseband zip on that page. Go to Defy General and go to the Stickied Wiki or Beginner's Guide and it'll have all the info you need on this.

'

While I'm hopeful for you, I doubt it will work but its worth trying. You can also try motofan.ru and see if they can provide an unlock code for your Bravo (its free). Its a 50\50 chance that they can or can't.

Your only other option is forking over the $$$ and buying the code. Don't try to randomly guess it -- you only have 10 tries and once you use them all you're (possibly) screwed.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] ChrisM0678:
Got this in the mail a few days ago and decided I'd write a summary review for you guys just in case you're looking to charge your GS3 wirelessly. The kit includes a protective case that doubles as a back up battery for when you're on the go. The color is deep blue that matches the GS3 pretty closely except its done in a matte finish. Its a bit slick but not as slick as the phone is without anything on it so overall its not too bad. Has a button on the back that when pressed once checks the charge of the internal battery and when held down activates the actual recharge so you can juice up whenever you want.

[YOUTUBE]4FD4BGjgweQ[/YOUTUBE]

From a protective viewpoint its not the greatest considering some of the sides are exposed as well as some of the top, not sure why they did it that way but its not great for face down protection. I would definitely recommend a screen protector. The charging pad itself uses the Qi standard so you can use it with the new Nexus 4, Windows 8 phones or if you decided to hack the back cover and insert a coil you can use it to recharge as well. They do sell the pad seperately if you don't need the case so thats always good. The pad itself feels great and smooth just like the GS3 does and the finish is nearly identical in color and touch to the capacitive button area of the phone. It only fits one phone at a time and obviously you'd probably like to find one specific spot to keep it so you don't have to lug it around from room to room or between work and home. I did a full review with a ton more details at the link below but that pretty much sums everything up.

Full written review can be found here: http://bit.ly/T4crrk
