This device is also a (VERY) improved version of early last year’s Droid RAZR MAXX. You all know the very slim phone with the 3300 mAh battery? Well this is the new and improved version. Th... »

Do you have the Verizon variant of the Samsung Galaxy Note II? Have you ignored the OTA pushing the security patch so far? Are you rooted?

Sometime near Christmas Droid RAZR (and MAXX I’m sure) owners were treated to a nice little gift from Santa, who is actually someone at Motorola. Somehow an update for Android version 4.1.2 (Jellybean) was pushed to the RAZR owners straight from Motorola. Also just as quickly as it appeared, it disappeared, and now you aren’t able to pull it. This was so sporadic that Verizon stated th... »
