[Q] Droid Razr Maxx - General Questions and Answers

I wasn't exactly being able to find this question. Where is the Forum made for the Droid Razr Maxx/HD ? I know there is Droid Razr, Droid Razr 4 but those are completely different devices. From what I know at least personal preference, the Droid Razr Maxx is the best Droid phone out there.
Thank you for any answers/explanations.

[Q] Razr Maxx HD vs. Droid 4, which is faster?

Can't seem to find any benchmarks. does anybody know which device is faster? I'm assuming the the Razr HD maxx. But by how much?
I'm considering buying one of em if I can't get the Nexus 4.
They vary, to be honest.
D4
Quadrant: 2,535 to 2,955
HD
Quadrant: 4110 to 4315
Have you ever held/looked at the Droid 4? The screen is atrocious when compared to the HD.
Had one for less than a day. Just my $0.02

Nope. I have the the moto milestone (basically droid 1) So anything better than that screen is good enough for me.
I'm also from canada and I was debating which phone to get if I can't get the Nexus 4 and sadly, the D4 and Maxx isn't available in Canada.

[Q] Google Now not speaking on Razr Maxx HD JB

Stupid Question

Hello everyone. I am not new to XDA but I do alot of reading and can generally find the answer to my question by XDA, Google, or some other forum. However, I am having a bit of a time with this question. I am brand new to Motorola...I am a Samsung guy but my wife likes these Motorola so in an effort to keep her happy I bought her the Droid Maxx. But as I was searching I have seen the name Maxx, Razr Maxx HD, Ultra, X all used when I think that I am only looking for Maxx. I have especially seen Ultra/Maxx used simultaneously.
**So my question: are these phones, at least basically, similar. I know there will be some difference but I'm wondering why they are grouped together (like Ultra Maxx and X) if there would be major differences? Just trying to understand so I can get the best information
Like I said I am Samsung so very new to Moto and just trying to understand so I can help her with her phone. Thanks for any clarification to this and if there is a thread that clears this up I apologize but I couldn't find it when I did my search.
For 2013, Motorola's newest releases are all very similar, aside from physical design.
There is the Moto X, released on many different carriers, and then the Verizon specific DROID lineup: Mini, Ultra, and Maxx.
These four devices all share the same processor and screen resolution. The DROID Mini has an LCD screen versus the AMOLEDs on the other three, and of course the battery capacity will vary.
On XDA, they have one forum for the DROID Mini, Ultra, and Maxx, and then a separate forum for the Moto X. Unless specified otherwise, any sort of modification created for the DROID Ultra will be compatible with the Mini and Maxx as well. Much of the discussion, however, is regarding the DROID Maxx (imo).
Motorola's RAZR brand is not being used this year (currently), and so those are all previous generation devices. 2011 being the DROID Razr, and 2012 was the DROID Razr HD. Both had 'Maxx' variants with the higher battery capacity.
Thanks for that reply. That makes sense and clears up alot of my confusion!

Razr Maxx the same as Razr HD for roms?

All,
Will a Verizon Motorola Droid Razr Maxx use the same roms as Motorola Droid Razr HD? My parents both have Verizon Motorola Droid Razr Maxx and I'm thinking it would be a good idea to put a custom Rom on both of their phones. I used to have a rooted HTC droid Eris and Motorola Droid Global. So I have somewhat of an idea of what I'm doing. The only problem is I want to make sure that these roms will work on their phones.
Also, extremely dumb question since everyone will say something different but what is the best stable ROM out there for reliability? I remember HTC sense being ultra easy to use with the stock overlay of just clicking phone at the bottom etc.
Thanks,
Chris

No. The Razr Maxx HD is the same as the Razr HD, which was released in Oct 2012.
The droid razr maxx (the one you mentioned in you post) uses the same roms as the droid razr, both phones were released in 2010/2011 time frame I think.
-- Dan
The Razr and Razr HD also run different processors. Like Dan said, they ROMs aren't interchangeable. Also, you cannot unlock the bootloader on the Razr, so you'll need to use SafeStrap to flash ROMs. For more info, I would go over to the Razr forums.

Difference in Droid Maxx's

Would someone help me distinguish between the different Droid Maxx's?
I have a Motorola Droid Maxx, XT1080, Kitkat 4.4.4, Build SU6-7.2. I see when using my phone it referee to itself sometimes as "Ultra." Then there is the Moto Maxx, RAZR Maxx. What are the differences, if any, and which forum should I post in? I have more questions about root access, Lollipop, Marshmallow, and custom ROMs.
I have been dying to unleash my phone but I want to do my research and have all my ducks in a row.
Thanks in advance!

Razr Maxx is an entirely different device that launched the year prior to the Droid Ultra (xt1080) and Droid Maxx (xt1080m). The latter two are identical with the only difference being that the Droid Maxx has a larger battery. Consequently, ROMs developed for the Ultra will work on the Maxx as well.
