motorola droid razr

Sigh... I know there's a "magic spell" to reset the swap partition (effectively do an epic garbage collection). I can get into Recovery but it's the button pushes after that which escape me. I've done the job a couple of times but I've forgotten the trick to get past recovery mode. I found one...

I'm sure this issue is answered here somewhere, but I didn't find it in any searches I did. I've opened the door often enough, to play with the microSD and SIM, that the door won't stay closed. Meaning the phone often can't see the SIM or the SD or both - not a good thing. The phone is usually...

Have long list of apps downloaded that I can't access. When I press & hold home screen, I only get a screen of wallpaper options. How can I get app icons onto home screens?

It used to be that you could disable the popup notification on the native (i.e., Motorola) text messaging app. I had to go back to this app after Handcent screwed up by adding its "update agent" that demands the removal of things I use without offering a justification; but that's beside the...

There is a bug in Android that causes attempts to connect with a WEP-secured access point to fail. The symptom is looping between two messages: Connecting... and Obtaining IP Address... This is a known bug in a range of Android versions. Unfortunately, the fix from Google hasn't propagated...

Long story short, there's a problem with Android and DHCP. Specifically, the problem of the "Obtaining IP address loop" comes down to a botched record of IP lease times. That is, an IP associated with a router doesn't die when it should and attempting another connection goes back to this IP...

For better or worse, I'm visiting someone who has a router protected only by WEP. I have the password needed but it won't take, even though two laptops successfully use the same password. The first question is: under JB, is there some problem with accessing a WiFi access point with WEP...

My phone started freezing up and closing apps so I tried a internal factory reset yesterday through Settings. When the phone booted up it was stuck on the red eye. I tried the external factory reset next by holding down the Power, Volume Up and Down Keys. I cleared cache and reset and the phone...

My GF has a RAZR Maxx going on about 18 months. My parents and sister all have younger Maxxs. The GF's phone battery is terrible like 6 hours on wifi. Looking at a bettery app Android OS is the biggest user, well above the screen useage. Are there any fixes to this?

Backstory - I have a Motorola Droid Razr. I had it rooted at one time and I had Safestrap installed during this period. I decided that rooting this phone wasn't really worth it for my tastes and so I unrooted it and went back to stock. Right off the bat, I notice that the unrooting worked...

I'm using the default browser on my razr, because lately chrome has been so slow for unclear reasons. One thing I've noticed is that when i enter words into the search field on googles search page, spaces between words are not auto inserted. Can i change this? The auto inserted spaces are pretty...

I'm looking for a good call recorder for my Razr. Tried several which say they're compatible but so far no calls can be heard on replay even though it appears they were recorded. Anyone have good experience with such an app on the Razr? Thanks. Jack

I've been using CM 10.1.3 for some time without any problems. Over the past few days I've noticed that the LTE connection hasn't been active at all, and I can't get it to turn on manually. 3G still works. How do I troubleshoot to determine if the problem is hardware or software? Thanks in...

Just today, I've been unable to open .txt files from my File browser, something I've always been able to do in the nearly two years I've had my Droid Razr. I haven't upgraded the OS recently. What happens is that when I click on a .txt file to open it, the Files app freezes and exits and I...

Settings>> Developer Options >>> turn OFF developer options. now go back to Smart Action and set up whatever you want.:D Whenever you need to use the developer options- it will screw with smart actions so once you are done with using developer options, turn it back off

This may be a stupid question, but I'm somewhat new. When I first upgraded my phone in September of 2012, I rooted my phone and installed the Artic HD ROM. Since then I didn't really pay any attention to updates. Now I want to see if I can update my phone to Jellybean, or whatever is the latest...
