[Q] International GSM Compatibility of Verizon Razr/Maxx HD

Hi All,
I know this question might have been asked in different forms, but I still want to double check and be at peace.
I have purchased a Verizon Razr Maxx HD - seller claims it to be brand new, clean ESN and International ready. I am importing this to India where the Frequency Band of my service provider Vodafone is GSM - 900/1800 MHZ, HSPA - 2100 MHZ, 4G LTE - 2300 MHZ
Since Verizon uses CDMA technology in the US, I was initially not very sure if this will work in India. But I researched quite a bit and found that as per the phone Specs: http://www.gsmarena.com/motorola_droid_razr_maxx_hd-4972.php, I should be able connect to GSM and 3G (4G is still a dream here in India)
I then confirmed from Verizon and XDA threads that the phone is indeed International ready i.e. in US it is locked for Verizon, but it will work with most networks GSM/HSPA/4G abroad so it doesn't require any separate unlocking for International Use. Is this correct? If the seller says that the phone has a clean ESN, then do I need to unlock the phone separately?
Once my friend in US receives the phone tomorrow, I plan to check the ESN here: http://www.verizonwireless.com/b2c/estore/certifieddevice/cd and also with Verizon Customer Care. Some other XDA members in India and abroad are facing difficulty in connecting to 2G/3G ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2100093) so I am worried, if my money will go to waste, although on paper all seems fine. Certain seller on ebay India is saying that it will only work on CDMA networks. So there is a lot of confusion creeping in.
If there is anything other precautionary measures that I should take, before my friend ships the phone to India? Any help is deeply appreciated.
PS: Motorola has discontinued there India business (yes no local support or warranty!) , but I really adore the Razr line of phones so much (for there build quality, great battery life and vanilla UI) that I am treading this path. Only (huge) concern is if the phone will connect to the network

Thanks! The phone was finally delivered yesterday. So I noted the IMEI number and called up Verizon. They said that it has a clean ESN but it is still activated with Verizon. But I am sure what does that really mean.. Will it work properly on any other SIM? I could imagine two scenarios:
As I understand, as soon as the original owner of the phone (eBay seller) stops the monthly bill payment, the connection will get cancelled first and then Verizon will try to claim the phone back. As the seller doesn't have this phone anymore, it is at this time that the phone will start giving SIM card errors to me as the ESN will become bad. Is that correct?
The seller claims, that she got this phone as a contract upgrade but did not use it all. So she must have activated this SIM on some other phone or her older phone. Wouldn't verizon come to know of this and deactivate this SIM card or blacklist list this user and report the phone IMEI. I am clueless on this one.
Overall, I feel that this is a deal breaker for me. And I am planning to return the phone. Any suggestions?
PS: Anyone wondering why I am going through so much trouble? I am in love with this phone (sturdy build quality and best battery!) And it is not available in India for retail.

You shouldn't have any issues unless you plan to use it on a CDMA network owned by Verizon.

Just pull the Verizon SIM out of the phone and pop in your favorite Indian SIM. Be sure to switch the phone to the Global network mode (or GSM/UMTS) and you'll be good to go. Doesn't matter what happens to the seller's account in the US, the phone will still work -- although perhaps not on VZW in the US, in case you travel here. For that matter, the phone won't work in the US at all, as the radio firmware specifically blocks ATT/TMobile.
They'll be an annoying "This SIM is from an unknown source" message every time you start the phone, but that is easily bypassed by pressing OK. I read on here somewhere that the unknown message is actually generated by a VZW *.apk that is installed on the phone. So theoretically one could root the phone and remove the annoying apk/message.
Also, you won't be able to do tethering using the stock utilities -- they try to phone home to Verizon and don't work when on a foreign network (I tried while I was in Australia last week on Optus, it failed miserably.)

For that matter, there is a recently discovered working unlock for that too, and it doesn't even require root
He won't need it though.

Theoretically and in practice, this has been done (just search...).

And again there is a fix if you root the phone, it involves editing a sqlite db and setting a value to zero (again search... Don't have the link handy, sorry...).

I see you've tried rooting the phone in the states, so the phone will just show a message that can be removed after rooting the phone and the phone will work on 3G/HSDPA in the states even without using a verizon account?

i have seen a number of people reporting the phone not to be working in India .

Very interesting thread and an even more interesting question.
I wonder what happened to the OP.
I have seen some ads. for used Razr HD's recently.
I am confused if those will work in India or not, but the phones are indeed very well built.

I thought you just had to change the mobile networks under settings and it would work.

So is your Droid Razr Maxx Hd working fine with the Indian GSM carrier? Me too looking for a Droid razr maxx hd from US (Verizon Locked with clean ESN). Need a confrimation as this is highly priced & i don't wanna waste my hard earned money. Your reply is appreciated. Thanks

I've been using it since a couple of months now on the Vodafone network and works fine. Gives a HDSP+ network for 3G connections. Rest your doubts the phone works fine in India.

The phone is actually GLOBAL READY NOT GLOBAL UNLCOKED
Well I bought my droid razr maxx brand new from eBay and since I knew it's global "ready" I directly brought it to Iran. I've tried a couple of non-Verizon SIMs but non of them worked. when I turn on the phone it simply doesn't recognize the SIM and doesn't let me get past the "Insert SIM" screen. So I thought there should be a problem with the phone as a result I sent it back to US and Motorola for repair and they sent it back saying no functional faults were found. yesterday I chatted with a Motorola agent and she told me "you should have had an international plan with Verizon" before taking it to countries other than US" here's the link which confirms this statement:
https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/86286
When it says global ready it means that it has GSM capabilities rather than only CDMA capability and better say it's NOT GLOBALLY UNLOCKED.

Slow Updates For Canadians?

Hi all,
I bought the unlocked A9 (32GB / 3GB) from the Canadian HTC portal over the holidays. Everything works great and I love the device, but I'm concerned about the lack of updates.
I'm still on 6.0, with 6.0.1 not in sight. The bigger concern though is that my last security patch was 2015-11-01.
I never received a patch for December, and the January patch was just announced as being released today.
I've tried contacting HTC directly (on Twitter and on their online help chat) but I just can't get any info from them. Has anyone else (specifically people in Canada that bought the unlocked A9) had any issues in regards to device updates?
Thanks!

Have the same problem with at&t USA, 6.0 and no info from HTC. However, the device you have must be locked to a specific carrier, so the update it carrier based, you will have to contact the carrier company on the status of the update

Nope. Bought directly from HTC with no carrier involvement. My carrier doesn't even sell the device.

How does the site generate end of warranty information accurately? This can be difficult because actual end user warranty is based on purchase date not necessarily production date.
Is the query supposed to check the production date? When I checked mine, All information seemed correct except the warranty date. I know this because my warranty end date was told to me by Huawei yesterday. The site said December 2016 and actual date is October 2016.

I used your service to check apple activation lockout. I get items from a lost and found acquired legitimately. Your site gave me faulty info stating a device had apple lockout activation off. THE INFO YOUR SITE GAVE ME WAS INCORRECT. Now the device will only be good for parts since it's not worth the repair. Don't advertise a service you can't deliver. Waste of time.

What is you phone Imei ?

and even if it is true You blame only yourself
you did nit confirm results and blame my site
80% od daily checking iCloud (10000 Imeis) are order then 1 year many are blacklisted in gsma an on Apple server, many of them are replaced
So please blame, if this true, yourself

I have a Moto G 3rd gen from republic wireless , my main goal is to unlock it and use it in other GSM network
I did some reading and republic wireless says it cannot be done.. This is what they say:
With that understanding, we do not "lock" any of our phones. However, the nature of our unique software that powers Republic Wireless is not technologically compatible with other carriers. We have explored - and will continue to explore - a way for Republic Wireless members to take their device to another carrier. Unfortunately, this is not easy and will require close coordination with both our equipment manufacturer and other carriers. At this time, we do not have any way to forecast when this will be possible.

My question is, can I remove the current phone software and install fresh android software to bypass this?

Interesting... I haven't messed with Republic Wireless devices much, they are primarily WiFi devices then fallback to Sprint and T-Mobile networks so they should work OK with some tweaking. Although if they are using the Sprint variant as a base model, we know those are garbage and not usable outside of Sprint's network in the US.
Is it eligible for bootloader unlocking on Moto's site? What is the base model (XT15XX) and the output of "fastboot getvar all" with the IMEI masked out?

Just FYI per my experience on this topic .... Have a RW version of the Moto G3 (Osprey) it is an XT1548 model .... was hoping to load a new custom ROM and move to a different carrier (not RW). After getting the unlock code from the phone via FastBoot, the Motorola site said: "motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com says: Your device does not qualify for bootloader unlocking." Phone is now sufficiently old that not worth paying the $25 to see if Sunshine may be able to unlock. So, looking like just buying a non-RW eBay phoone may be next step. Has anyone ever gotten a RW custom ROM phone unlocked or custom ROM loaded without going via the SunShinne route? If so HOW???

ATT LMG900UM1 FOTA problem

Hi.
Nice to meet you.
1 weeks ago I puchased ATT LG velvet 5G(unlocked) on ebay and I received it.
I just knew that ATT branded phone can not receive FOTA if we don't use ATT SIM card with connectable.
I really hate this things, even "unlocked" device, FOTA controled by carrier, not maker.
I tried
1.Use ATT prepaid SIM card in JAPAN with wifi connection even that ATT prepaid SIM not contract.
But result is same, I can not receive FOTA in JAPAN.
2.Try to update the phone via LG Bridge, LG bridge error if the phone ATT model even status is unlocked.
3.Try to flash canadian kdz, because same model number, but IMPL is locked, fail.
Do you have any idea to get update? and do you hava any solution to unlock IMPL?
and do you have any solution with hidden menu?
if you have solution, I will donate to your paypal account.
I searched information for this problem on internet, and this model can not use crossflasing .kdz file because IMPL is locked.
it seems I have to give up to update this phone.
I regret that I bought ATT model.
That's why ATT model is sold with good price.
I can't understand that why LG don't allow user update via LG bridge like samsung.
If you have any information, please share your information.
thank you very much for your reading this post.
