    Finally rooted, now battery life through the roof!

    Just an FYI for those that might not follow the All Things Root sub-forum for the HD Maxx, you can now root your phone directly from JB 4.1.2. It is beyond easy and after downloading the drivers the actual root process takes about a minute. My phone is heavily customized with Nova Prime Launcher...

    Anyone lose their SD card after 4.1.2 update?

    I updated my RAZR MAXX HD three days ago to 4.1.2 via OTA and everything seemed to work well, no problems with the SD card. Listened to music (on the SD card) and even did some file transfers last night from Internal storage to the SD card with no issues. This morning all of the sudden I get an...

    What car dock are you using?

    I'm thinking of getting a car dock for my Razr Maxx HD so I can use Waze and charge it on long trips. For those of you using your RMHD in the car, what docks are you using? Any brands to avoid? Any considerations? I did a quick search of Amazon yesterday right before leaving work and it...

    Help Annoying Contacts widget issue

    I really like the Contacts 4x1 widget that came with our phone. It's the one that displays four contacts on the page and then you can select any one of them to text or call, or you can swipe down and it will display all the people you have starred as favorites in your contact list. I think it's...

    Front LED?

    Does the Note 2 have an LED light that can show different colors? Many Android users (me included) use a program called Light Flow (or Light Manager is another one) that allows configuration of different colored light flashes for different program notifications. I did a search in the Note 2...

    Possible fix for Bluetooth streaming music issues

    I was suffering a lot of problems when streaming music from the cloud (mostly Rhapsody) and other sources via Bluetooth to my Bose SoundLink speakers. I would get a lot of clicks and hiccups and worse, with the streaming cloud music - stoppages. A different post about a WiFi issue made me look...

    Considering going back to ICS?

    Okay, so the long awaited up-rev to Jelly Bean has come and gone. And as we all knew would be the case there are growing pains associated with this. For me there has not been any increase in performance and in fact it seems to be a little slower and laggier, although not much. But there are...

    Jelly Bean soak test going out soon

    According to a post over on Droidrzr.com at least in the RAZR HD section. Anyone here sign up to be a soak tester?

    Jelly Bean rollout to the masses today on the RAZR M

    Supposedly JB rolled out to the select few last week (soak test) and its rolling out to the masses today, or so sayeth those over on the RAZR M forum. Can we be far behind? How many are going to jump right on it when it comes out? I will probably wait to see how those that do jump on it see...

    Phone lock: Face, Pattern, Pin or Password?

    I'm just wondering what most people are using (if anything) with their phones? I never leave my phone in a place that I am not near it and usually it's in my pocket. And since I'm not a teenager I don't leave it lying around to be stolen or snooped in either. But I still like to have the...

    "It's the battery, stupid."

    It's election day so I thought I'd riff on the famous line from the '92 Clinton campaign where James Carville came up with (among other things) the line, 'The economy, stupid' to help keep campaign workers focused on the issues. I'm in my third week on this phone and so I'm past the point of...

    Anyone using Smart Actions?

    I have found this to be a very helpful feature. It usually works pretty well. The only times I found it's glitchy is when using the location as a trigger. I thought it might be interesting to see what others have come up with. Here are the few I have going right now: 1.) Home Rule -...

    Jelly Bean vs. ICS for the HD MAXX

    What is so much better about Jelly Bean over ICS? I test drove a regular RAZR MAXX back in the early summer for about a week and returned it because it wasn't quite there yet and I wanted to wait to see what the iPhone 5 and RAZR HD MAXX had to offer. Back then the regular MAXX had...

    Is anyone using Light Flow or Light Manager?

    I tried Light Manager and that didn't seem to work at all. So then I tried Light Flow Lite and got slightly better results. It works on the few options is allows for. I don't want a ton of things, just a few more than what came stock on the phone. It's been a little glitchy so far with one...

    Help RAZR HD MAXX volume problem with Bose Soundlink

    I just wanted to start this thread so if anyone else has this problem they can easily find a thread about it with a search. There's another one already in the regular RAZR / RAZR MAXX area. I have noted this problem with both these phones - the RAZR MAXX and now the RAZR HD MAXX. If you own...

    New RAZR HD MAXX

    I picked this phone up today from Verizon. Paid full retail ($649) to retain my unlimited data plan. Spent the last 6 hours setting it up. I'm coming from an iPhone 4. I actually 'test drove' a RAZR MAXX back in June for about a week. There were several issues that when combined made me...

    Help New MAXX owner question

    Hello all, Great forum. Just switched from iPhone to RAZR MAXX. Love the battery life for sure. Doing some serious A/B'ing of the two phones trying to decide whether to keep the MAXX. As always, both phones have their plusses and minuses. One annoying issue with the MAXX I'm having is with...
