I couldn't find any PayPal bullet to click on either site but my Spanish is fairly rudimentary and I was using a translator for the Brazilian site. I have also imported phones from the UK a couple times by using their local Amazon which took my card just fine but Mexico does not have a full Amazon site. A remailer would work if we could use our cards but we cant...

Its a little frustrating especially now that we know the bootloader can be unlocked because I would drop coin in a heartbeat. If you figure something out be sure and post up.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] ChazzMatt:
on the Mexican Motorola site, says "sold out".

http://www.motorola.com.mx/moto-maxx/moto-maxx-mex.html

AGOTADO (sold out)

What other Latin American countries will get this phone?

I actually have in-laws in Brazil and other friends, but I think Mexico would be less expensive.

When I go to the Brazil Motorla site and click for "more information", I get this"

http://www.lojaoficialmotorola.com.br/moto-maxx

OK, I changed VPN to Germany and got in to the Brazil site. But won't let me order until I register.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] matheus_sc:
Here in Brazil all sites needs registrer
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] krabman:
That was quick, it was available yesterday when I was trying to buy. They have not yet announced what other countries will see release, saying only "select Latin American countries"...
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Galaxo60:
I couldn't believe it, but yes, the phone is gone... I thought that this things were first world problems.

Anyway, I tried in Motorola Brazil and actually I can click everywhere and almost check out. I'm from Mexico and I never been on Motorola Brazil before.

[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Galaxo60:
Thanks you, it will really help me to know the capabilities of the Maxx in such enviroments.

:p

LOL, What kind of question is that?, you can set the language in the wizard in any Android.

:silly:
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] fabioccoelho:
Ok man.. I'll give you a feedback :)
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Galaxo60:
It seems that Moto Maxx is again available to buy directly from the Motorola page in Mexico.

Besides this, it seems that orders started to ship, but weird thing is that they are shipping the phones from China; I thought that Motorola send the phones directly for US.

:confused:
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] ChazzMatt:
Motorola now owned by Chinese Lenovo. ALL USA manufacturing facilities shut down. (If that's what you were asking about?)
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Galaxo60:
You are totally right, I forgot about Lenovo, but I didn't thought it were so fast. I was asking because I remember to read that a lot of Moto X bought through the page were sent from USA, and not China. Maybe that's why the time frame for delivery of the Moto X was around 5-7 days and fro the Moto Maxx is around 12 days.

:cyclops:
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] ChazzMatt:
Which remailer did you use? There's got to be a way around this, so want as much information as possible. :)
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] krabman:
I don't remember now, that was for a GS4 so its been nearly two years. I found them with a search but it took me a few hours, its easy to find a continuing service (monthly or annual fee) but not so much a one time service.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] donaldduck2004:
hey guys where can be bougth this smartphone?

I live in Italy?
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] gordonzhao:
If you go to Mexico or Brazil. Otherwise it's not available outside of those countries at e moment
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] donaldduck2004:
are there no intentions to sell in europe?

I've read Motorola is not going to sell there because it's afraid people could ignore nexus 6...:confused:
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Seventhwave:
hi there,

I am an AT&T user too and really want this phone. I think it will be compatible with AT&T lte because band 17 is the major band they use in most places. Band 4 supplements band17, and band 2 or 5 are only used where 17 is not. The band spectrum of your area can be checked by the LTE Discovery application on any lte-capable phone. I found most New England areas are using band 17. So I will surely works for me on AT&T if it's unlocked.

Now the only question to me is: how can I get a hand on it? Envy you Mexican/Brazilian guys over there.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] krabman:
As of now Motorola tweeted on their French Twitter that they would not. I've not seen anything official from them regarding their reasoning for not selling in the various markets. Protecting their existing products is certainly a possibility combined with possible restrictions from the Verizon agreement and corporate sales strategy.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Galaxo60:
About that, it is important to note that the tweet was deleted few hours later in the Motorola France Tweeter, so maybe this could mean something.

:confused:
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] donaldduck2004:
very strange...anyway I think that not at all appreciated this message...

nexus 6 is too large for common hands,it's a phablet...not a smartphone...turbo droid would be the nexus 6 everybody was looking for... :(
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] ChazzMatt:
What difference would it make to Motorola's profits if people bought the Motorola Moto Maxx or the Motorola Nexus 6? :confused:

The only thing I can think of is for IMAGE reasons, the Moto Maxx/Droid Turbo is branded as Motorola and thus helps Moto' s IMAGE (for the Lenovo sale), while the Nexus 6 is branded in people's eyes as "Google" -- thus Google let Motorola keep the best phone. "This phone is too good for our Nexus program. We need to make Motorola look good for Lenovo".

Google didn't want to make it available initially to the whole world because Google knows they made a mistake in trying to foist the 5.9" version when the 5.2" version would be better. This Moto Maxx/Droid Turbo was the 5.2" version Google was testing as late as mid-August to be the Nexus 6 -- either THE only one or a variant (like the iPhone 6/iPhone 6 Plus). Even has the same Nexus wireless charging that no other Motorola phones have -- because it was originally designed to be a Nexus phone. :rolleyes: Just because it's the 6th Nexus doesn't mean it has to have 6" screen, the numbers were NEVER indicative of screen size; that was a fallacy perpetrated by ignorant people who didn't know it stood for gen numbers. (The Nexus One was not 1", etc.)

But Lenovo now owns Motorola. So, not sure why Lenovo would not roll out this phone to the entire world. :confused: Or perhaps they will -- but under a different name. Same way "Droid Turbo" was exclusive to Verizon, which I knew was a LIE, because there were rumors even then the same phone called the "Moto Maxx" or "Moto X Play" would also be released... Sure enough, Moto Maxx. It's the name that was exclusive, not the PHONE. So, maybe phone will released under a different name to other countries?

_______

Yes, will work with AT&T just fine. YES. As long as the phone is unlocked. But important to buy from Motorola, and not a carrier for that reason.

GSM/UMTS are perfect.

For LTE AT&T currently uses LTE bands 2, 4, 5, 17.

This phone has everything needed for AT&T, except LTE Band 5.

AT&T only uses Band 5 in some areas; it's not ubiquitous. In those areas where LTE band 5 is used to supplement the other bands, you would stay on the other LTE bands but might have slower speed if there's lots of congestion. AT&T uses LTE band 5 in heavily congested areas to offload users to lesser used frequencies, if their devices have band 5 capability.

But there are also a few areas where AT&T has GSM/HSPA and only LTE band 5 (with no other LTE bands available). In those areas where ONLY LTE band 5 is available, your imported phone would drop down to GSM/HSPA instead of having LTE.

However, this is an expensive phone to import and you need to make sure it's not locked to the Brazilian or Mexican carrier...
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] donaldduck2004:
what a good perspective!!! ;)
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Galaxo60:
It is not locked because it is sold directly by Motorola, and all the devices sold here in Mexico through the Motorola's page are unlocked and SIM free to use with any carrier. Also, the bootloader is unlocked as well.

:good:
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] donaldduck2004:
... but the price is anyway over my pocket... :(

why this change in prices???nexus 5 was perfect in everything! price and performance!
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Galaxo60:
Maybe because Google was tired of hearing "Nexus devices are mediocre..." and tried to make competition to one of the most powerful devices out the: the Note 4.

Many people had complains about the battery and camera on Nexus, that's why they went all with the Nexus 6, but funny thing, is that all that reviews are agree on the mediocre battery life (again) on the new Nexus, pretty disappointed of this, and that's why I prefer the Maxx over the Nexus.

:silly:
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] donaldduck2004:
Maxx has a nuclear power plant ,not a battery...XD
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] PLGVIE:

[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Galaxo60:
Would be interesting to know from where you buy and also how you plan to get it because Motorola Mexico only accept mexican addresses.

[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] gauravahluwalia:
Verizon says droid will work in uk

So Verizon confirmed to me that the turbo will work in the Uk with any network SIM.

What I want to know is do I go for droid turbo or the Moto maxx?

4g usage doesn't really matter to me (it's pretty ****e in here) and I could live with a bit of Verizon bloatware. But I am confused on the boot loader.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Galaxo60:
I would pick the Maxx over the Turbo, because of the Verizon bloatware and the unlockable bootloader, which means you will have support and ROM's from developers in a short-mid term. Besides this, I think the Maxx could get 4G in most countries because of the bands it has, which are totally different from the ones in the Turbo.

;)
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] gauravahluwalia:
Thanks a lot mate. Now just need to find a way to order it.

Any idea When it's coming in Colombia? The only way I see it is take my friends Help who's in my University and is from Colombia.

Such a pity Motorola is not getting this in Asia/Europe. Definitely pick this over nexus 6
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Jaocagomez:
How did you managed to bypass the country setting? It's set to mexico by default and can't be changed
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] PLGVIE:
No need to bypass as I can use a delivery address within México.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Galaxo60:
He just used a mexican address because he has family and friends here, but the credit card was from Australia as far as I understand, that's the strange thing.

:confused:
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] ChazzMatt:
Austria, not Australia. But still...

Then why can't we do the same with Jaocagomez who offered to help us?

http://xdaforums.com/droid-turbo/ge...ion-coming-t2922398/post56726486#post56726486
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Galaxo60:
I thought it was Australia, I read quickly always and sometimes I misunderstand, but anyway, my bad.

About the help, it seems that many people who asked for help from him were reporting that the cards were not valid or were blocked, so we thought that the page would only accept mexican credit cards, but maybe is a random thing, and maybe some cards work and some other doesn't.

Would be nice to know if these people payed with VISA or MasterCard, and also if they call the bank before make the buy, because sometimes banks automatically block all the suspicious shopping, and moreover, that is in a totally different country.

:confused:
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Jaocagomez:
I mean the payment address of course, delivery can be any address but im payment must be from mexico as you can't select another country

I mean you even have to put your zip code and that moment is even you get rejected
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] ChazzMatt:
Yet, somehow he used a non-Mexico credit card.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] PLGVIE:
Checked: invoice address same as delivery address!

Mastercard used!

But pls, before you guys get too upset:

I just wrote that the order had gone through smoothly and that I had received the confirmation e-mail.

I explicitly noted that the shipment has not arrived yet! There are still three weeks to wait till the phone is supposed to be sent which means that the order could still be canceled, payment problems could occur or whatever else...

kind rgds

Peter
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Galaxo60:
It takes around 2-3 days to be shipped, and around a week to get it from China to Mexico. If the order wasn't canceled on the first day, probably it won't.

:fingers-crossed:
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] dzefas:
Guys, is it possible somehow buy it moto maxx and get this device in Germany?
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Jaocagomez:
I think that what you did was check the option ''billing address same as shipping address'' and just put the credit card info, and it accepted it, maybe it will decline when they try to send the phone, who knows. wait and see. if you get tracking number please let me know so i can help others get their maxx
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] krabman:
I just tried per our PMs but it wont let me put it in the cart as its out of stock again. I agree, I think he selected billing address is the same and that is why it went through. I'm going to try that myself when they are in stock and call my credit card company and tell them to accept the charge and hope it works.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] ChazzMatt:
Yes, out of stock again and the "discount" price ends today. :( (The Mexican holiday like "Black Friday".)

I called my credit card to tell them I was buying a phone in Mexico and having it shipped to a friend's house. They seemed OK with it...
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Seventhwave:
Congrats on your success placing the order! Man you are lucky.

Just out of curiosity, you used your own Austrian credit card (with your name of course), but want to deliver to a recipient with a Mexican address and a different name (otherwise delivery won't work I guess?)

How did that happen? Your credit card company won't check that?

[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] ChazzMatt:
Sometimes the card is not charged until the item actually ships. Perhaps the credit card has just passed "initial" scrutiny. It may still be rejected. He doesn't have the phone in hand yet. ;)

But I'm definitely going to try the same thing when the phone is back in stock... :)
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] ernani1:

Btw, if anyone wants the Brazilian version I can help with buying and shipping it to you.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] respider:
hey! do you know if it's already possible to unlock maxx's bootloader?
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] mfractal:
not yet as far as i know..
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Jaocagomez:
Yes you can, someone already unlocked the bootloader of his maxx a few pages ago.

----------

Guys I'll keep trying to bring Moto maxx outside the world, once they have stock again the people who contacted me, can try again on motorola mexico page, just check billing address is the same as shipping address and use your own credit card.

Which is this option:

"La dirección de facturación es la misma que la direccion de envio"

Just check that option and put your credit card and you are good to go.

I've already checked and it indeed let you put any credit card without asking country.

Same rules from my previous post apply.

See them here.

Does the Maxx comes with headphones?, it seems that the Maxx in Brazil comes with headphones, but as far as I know, the Maxx in Mexico doesn't come with them, Can you confirm this, please?.

Brazilian Maxx is around $200 more expensive that mexican version, that's why would be better to buy from Motorola Mexico.

:fingers-crossed:

---------- Post added at 08:59 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:53 AM ----------

I think because Turbo and Maxx are the same phone, but with different bands, it makes almost no sense to put a whole forum, but I think this thread would be really helpful with people from Mexico and Brazil contributing.

Try to use the latest one, if the latest doesnt work for you then choose older and older and so on. Latest one should work fine though. Remember to make a backup beforehand and let me know how it went and I might just create a version for CM11! :)

by backup you mean i should install this version ?

"Rebased on .314 fw Z2 soundmod 1.3 with headphones boost with backup"

or you meant the backup of full system?

i saw there an *.sh file that should do the backup of the original sound files?

i will need your help to restore if needed to original configuration
