[Q] RAZR GSM compatible - Motorola Droid RAZR

I'm going to buy a GSM RAZR (XT910) and have some questions :
1. Does it work with T-mobile network ? (3G / 4G)
2. How satisfied are you with this phone ?

it does not supprt t-mobile 3/4g (it will if t-mobile refarms the 1900mhz band in your are)
i am currently using it on simple mobile (t-mobile MNVO?), and get a throttled edge speed of 110-167kbps dl and up to 1000kbps upload.
i will be swtitching to t-mobile soon, as i get great reception with this phone compared to other phones i have had, and simple doesn't even use all the t-mo towers.
the only downside is if you want a white/blue/or purple razr it won't be a maxx. so the battery life is only ok. otherwise i love the phone, it works great and i havent had any problems with it.

Can u unlock the Verizon razr and use it on Straight Talk? And 3g/4g?

Straight Talk has the option for t-mobile or AT&T sims, so with the at&t sim you would get 3/4g
from what i know you can't unlock it for domestic carriers yet, they are working on it.
so for now you'd need the xt910 (xt912 is verizon, 910 is simfree)

[Q] Can I use my Razr XT910 with T-Mobile US

Can I used Razr GSM version with T-Mobile US? And does it works with T-Mobile 3G and 4G or just 2G? Thanks.

Thanks for your replied. But do you have any idea with T-Mobile 3G?
Tmo uses 1700mhz band for 3g , you wont be able use tmo 3g with xt910.

[Q] Does razr xt910 on work on at&t?

I started with a working iphone 4 on AT&T. Two weeks ago I went crazy and bought an AT&T Galaxy S II off of ebay. I popped in my micro sim (using adapter) and it works great! I have constant hsdpa+ service even in some pretty rural areas!
In any case, I was having so much android fun that I decided to buy an unlocked Motorola XT910 to try it out. So far, not so good. Using the same sim that works in both my iphone and gs2 will not connect to AT&T's data network. I have 4-5 bars of signal, but I seen no letter network indicator (may be normal, I don't know) and network apps report 'no data connection found'.
So, is there some secret or trick I need to do to this XT910 to make it work with AT&T? I'm new to this forum and android in general, so please forgive me if I'm doing something totally stupid. Thanks!
The RAZR XT910 supports GSM 850/900/1800/1900 and W-CDMA 850/900/1900/2100 so it should work with AT&T...
Did you set the APN up correctly?
Razr XT910
You need to manually add the AT&T APN under network settings. Google APN settings for AT&T and it should work.
Make sure your APN settings is correct.

I will try that tonight when I get home and let you know how it works. Thanks!
You guys are great! I setup everything based on what I found on a google search and now everything is working great. The Razr is actually a little faster on HSPA+ than the Galaxy S2. The max speeds I got on speedtest.net are:
Galaxy S2: 3487 D/L 1129 U/L
Razr: 3909 D/L 1101 U/L
Thanks again!
Hey guys,
New member here looking to do the same as resotek and try to set up a droid razr for at&t.
Resotek, or anyone if you could help me out...after adding the APN settings for at&t does everything work meaning internet, pic messages, wifi, etc
Thanks in advance
I've never seen HSPA+ on my xt910, only HSPA with ATT. I have the standard wap.cingular apn. Is there something special you have to do with apn settings to get HSPA+?

Yes, the phone works like a champ and I have no known issues. Check your PM.

I'm also getting an xt-910 and I just want to make sure I use the right apn settings. Will I use the ATT ptt settings, like for a Samsung Infuse or can I use the apn settings for a Samsung Skyrocket?? Looking at the bands the phone supports I think I need to use the same settings as the Infuse but I just want to check.

Bumpskies.
Just looking for some confirmation of the correct apn.
Also, can I just cut my Skyrocket sim and use that or do I need to get a micro sim from att?
Thank You

u can cut it, but i bought a SIM card puncher From Amazon that did a perfect job. i kept the punched off piece to place around the new micro sim to use in my other phones.
www.amazon.com/Noosy-Cutter-MicroSim-Adapter-iPhone/dp/B00419V4L0
Thanks for the response about the sim card. I figured as much about a cutter, I just didn't want to buy a cutter for one sim. But it's not expensive so I may just spring for it haha
sigh ;(
bought the xt912 without realizing and now im searching and searching with no luck to unlock it...any one figure out if theres a way?
thanks
So a Verizon Razr won't work like this or what would have to be done if anything? Looking to buy one to use on AT&T

i dont think the verizon razr (xt912) will work but the global one (xt910) should be good to go.
For the xt910 you just put in the ATT APN settings and your good
I'm on the Att network and mine (xt910) is working fine, works much better after I called Att and gave them the imei number?
Since I came from using a SGS2...but yes it works!

Don't usually post since I am Moto employee, but you guys should know - there is no difference between 910 and 912 aside from SW. I can take a VZ retail device out of box, flash with a GSM AP and pop in an AT&T SIM (using now)

[Q] Droid Razr will work in India?

HI,
My Cousin is going to buy a droid Razr from Craigslist and send it to me here in india
I wanted to Know
1. He is going to buy a Droid Razr Verizon Lte phone will it work in india on GSM.
2. If not then any other Version that i should buy?
3. If yes then would i have to root it and then it would work.
I would really Appreciate if you could help me out.
Check out the frequency bands the Droid RAZR supports. Theoretically, it should work on CDMA networks in India. The LTE bands won't work (obviously) due to the lack of 4G LTE support in India. But Reliance and Tata Indicom CDMA networks should support the phone just fine.
Take Razr XT910 cuz it will support GSM as Droid by verizon is exclusive product for verizon network if u have to take their product then u need to break contract with them so to avoid complecations take XT910

Well, LTE is GSM-based. SO you should be able to. But yeah, the complications are a lot. Just get the XT910 then. Otherwise get it for CDMA, no issues with that. And don't worry about it being exclusive to Verizon, it can be unlocked locally.

Well That is basically what i want to know. If i go for LTE verizon can i use it in India.Anybody who is using it.
The Reason for me stressing on LTE verizon is Because My Cousin has got it for me.
So If there is nothing i cant do it then ill ask him to sell it again.
- Anyone who is using LTE VErizon in India?
Sell it. XT912 does not work on GSM full stop.

If you absolutely must have a RAZR, yes, you'll need to do just that.
I'd recommend buying a less awful phone full stop, though.

GSM support Verizone Droid Razr?
GSM capability of droid razr??
as per below link Razr support GSM networks.
droidmatters.com/news/verizon-confirms-global-gsm-roaming-coming-to-the-droid-razr-razr-maxx-htc-rezound-and-lg-spectrum/
does this conclude we can use it on GSM network like ATT or in India?

Droid RAZR XT910....

I have the XT910 version of the RAZR and was wondering. What does it mean?
Can I use it on TMOBILE?
Sent from my XT910 using XDA
pretty much yes.
the xt910 is the gsm version of the razr.
it only gets 3g on at&t frequencies.
so you'll be stuck on edge unless t-mobile refarms 3g in your area (you also may need to cut your sim as the razr uses a micro sim, the only difference that i know of is size)
I put NY Sim in but it still said, no Sim. Ima go get an official one. So I wont be able to use tmobiles 3g or 4g?

The Droid Razr XT910 only has 3G and HSDPA (evolved 3G or "fake" 4G) so no LTE no matter what your carrier supplies.
I dont want lte. But will it work on tmobiles 3g or 4g? And does it automatically means its "unlocked"

The Droid Razrs from verizon will be unlocked for gsm global use within next ICS update. Some users in sone versions of the leaked ics are reporting its fully working thought gsm networks.
Hope this is the info you're looking for.

Kinda but thanks for the reply. I already have a GSM version of the RAZR, NOT the Verizon branded version. So shouldn't my phone work with Tmobile out the box and also even on GB 2.3.6
Which is what it came wit. I cant even install Verizon roms on mines w/o the gsm patch I guess

It will work on T-Mobile's 1X network, EDGE. You cannot get 3G unless you are using AT&T in the US because the XT910 doesn't support T-Mobile's LTE, HSPA, or 3G frequencies.

Oh! I see. Read the above post from [TSON] its an accurate information.
BTW. It's 'Droid Razr XT910' in OP but all 'Droid' phones are from verizon. Your's are Motorola Razr XT910. This may be usefull for future reference.
