Hello, I have an XT907 which came from Verizon Wireless. I no longer have a Verizon Wireless account and there isn't service to the phone any longer. Verizon keeps attempting to get me to register my old phone number along with their update so they can charge me data charges. I do not use it as a phone. I only use the Razr as an extension of my horrible Alcatel One Touch Evolve 5020 T which I have a pay as you go account with GoSmart Wireless. I do not have the resources to buy a different phone. I use the Mobile Hotspot and pair it with my Razr M and my Samsung Galaxy SM-217 Tablet. I love my Razr M and have found it easy to do everything on. It has 4G Lte capabilities but I have had these issues with it.
Yesterday morning, I woke up to find my long-haired Persian cat sleeping on top of my XT907. I found it overheated and allowed it to cool down slowly and attempted to boot because it was stuck on the boot screen, red eye. It wouldn't power down with the power button alone. I powered it off using the power button and volume button held in the center. Once it had turned off, it displayed the battery charging icon while power off, screen. I restarted it the usual way and it will not boot past the red eye boot screen. Another member had a situation sort of similar to mine with the exception that his had gotten wet and the phone was a Razor Maxx. He was told to remove the SD card and then power up first. Then he was instructed to replace the SD card and do a reboot. Is this a possible solution for either of us? If not, can you help me get this phone rebooted. Please tell me whether or not I should root this Razr M I love so much? Or do I need to move on to an endless search for a device which will nake me smile like the Razr M? This has been the only phone I have ever loved.
I also have an unusual snapping sound whenever the screen/display changes. This occurs since the latest software update. My son has shared the same experience when his phone software had updated.
Any help would be much appreciated!
Thank you!
