Razr phone problems

My Razr V3 is a little over a year old. Whenever I try to go to the menu, call someone, or do ANYTHING else on the phone, either it does not respond, or the ring styles screen pops up.(ring styles screen -->where you can change the voulume) It won't do anything. The only thing I can do is recieve calls, and sometimes that doesn't even work! Help please...

    Had some of the same problems with razor phone. Screen conctantly blacks out; not it is totally black. Contacted AT&T and they said the phone gotten water in it. I can call, but can not see numbers dialed; can receive calls, but can not see numbers."Will not" buy another razor. It is not worth the price. They are only interested in selling contracts, not customer service.

    I had a similar problem w/ my Razr. I called T-Mobile to help. They recommended a Master reset and this is how I did it. As I could not scroll, I took the battery out and reinstalled it. When I powered on, it asked if I wanted to "Customize" and I replied "Yes". I then navigated the following : Home Screen (select); HOME kEYS (Select);Icons(Select) - Hide. Then exit out. Now you can push the center button on the scroll pad and then use the volume keys on the left dise to navigate. Navigate to Master Reset and select. The code (at least for the T-Mobile units) is " 000000 " (6 zeroes). Hope this helps, but I still cannot use the scroll pad to navigate and am trying to find out if there is a remedy or recall for this.

    hi yesterday made a few calls and everything was fine. today when tried to change my ring style to soft (at work so phone can't ring loud) only pops up is the ring style. I used the phone tools to see if i could dial a number through it and it does but to dial with the phone itself doesn't work...looking for solutions all suggestions are welcomed.

When I close my razor it turns off and all the lights on it flash.
And if I set it down to hard it turns off, the end button doesn't work, and neither does the numbers '2' and '8' , and its only 6 months old and I havent done anything to it.

I had mine for 11/2yrs. Constant dropped calls, then the GLUE! yes the glue started coming off the phone making it unusable. No Tmobile will not help and Motorola well, read the website. Last purchase of a Motorola.

Mine does the exact same thing, another site says its from water or corrosion damage. Warranty doesn't cover it. Mine did it after a few drops of rain hit the number pad while I was walking to my car. They say a professional will have to fix it. let me know if you here something different too.

Hi Mosmo - Did you happen to find any solution to this problem? My phone just started doing the same thing yesterday and it is only 1 year old (and 9 days) since I've had it...I tried calling my phone company and they weren't able to do anything for me and I can't do the Master reset suggested by other sites (and above) because the BUTTONS DON'T WORK!!! :-) Let me know if you were able to find a solution!! My e-mail is [email protected]. Thanks!!

The easiest thing tpo do here is take it to a professional but if you want to try updating your software off the Motorola website. (this require a data cable or bluetooth in your computer) This fixes a lot of software problems with the razor. If this doesn't work then you will have to reflash your Firmware which is like the Windows Xp of the phone. This does require a professional as it can destroy the phone

    OK you could also try and master reset the phone.

I've had the same problem. I fixed this, but I can't remember how. So I'll try my best to remember. I think it had something to do with bluetooth. Do you have bluetooth?

Sounds like you may need to update your configuration settings. If you are not using an unlocked phone a master reset should do it. If this doesnt work call your carrier they should be able to update your browser settings

Phone call

This is most likely either a defective speaker, problem with the internal antenna, or a loose connection inside the phone. If the phone is in warranty, I would definitely contact your carrier and see what your options are for repair.

You may also want to try resetting the phone in the settings menu. Make sure you backup your data first, as it will most likely be wiped clean after the reset.

Do you notice this buzz only when you use the phone in a certain location, or do you get it anywhere you talk on it?
