Hello all, I am currently looking to get the Motorola Razr Maxx in the next few days from Alltel. However, before I do, there are several questions I would like answered. Any help would be appreciated
Now then, starting off.
1. Is there a root option for the Razr Maxx for Alltel? It supposedly will be running ICS stock, but I want to make sure I don't use some sort of root method that is for a Verizon Maxx and cause issues on my phone. If there is a root option, which is best? I've done recovery flashes and whatnot in the past to root my Alltel 2.3.6 X2, but the simpler the better for me.
2.Bluetooth input, is it fixed? One thing I do a lot of on my Motorola Milestone X2 is emulation. I have a PSX, N64, GBA, GBC, etc etc. However, one HUGE setback with my Moto X2 is that it does not handle bluetooth input properly. My previous phone could handle it in emulation just fine, but there is a problem with the X2, supposedly. The X2 can detect input from bluetooth devices (and it shows the input in said applications used to sync the device), HOWEVER, the input cannot interact with other applications on the X2, making it impossible to play emulators with bluetooth devices. Does the issue persist with the Razr Maxx, or can I finally hook up a Wii remote to my Razr Maxx, mirror it to my TV, and sit back and enjoy the classics?
3. Infrastructure tethering - I do not have an existing ISP because all ISPs I can get are so terrible, wireless dial-up with interference would be more reliable. That being said, I use my phone for all of my internet needs. PC gaming, downloads, posting on forums like this, etc etc. I have no bandwidth caps or throttles, so I am truly unlimited. However, a setback with my Moto X2 is that even though I am rooted for wireless such as Wifi Tether or Barnacle, I can only tether in ad-hoc and not infrastructure. Tablets and other devices cannot connect to ad-hoc and only infrastructure, but supposedly my phone does not support this. Does the Razr Maxx have sufficient hardware to broadcast as a infrastucture hotpost?
4. Locked Bootloader and Custom ROMs? I am aware that my Moto X2 has a locked bootloader, supposedly meaning it is unable to have custom ROMs flashed to it. Is this the case with the Razr Maxx? And if so, are there methods to unlock the bootloader on the Maxx, unlike the X2? And, assuming I can flash, what kind of ROMs could I use and what would be recommended per my general uses of the phone (as listed above)? I have never flashed a custom ROM and know little of it. Would I need one specific to my carrier (Alltel), or does it just need to be the right technology (Alltel is CDMA)?
As an added note, while not phone specific, are there any alarming pitfalls to a custom ROM? Bugged SMS, MMS, etc?
Hey y'all,
On Republic Wireless's website, they state you need to use the Moto X because of the way their software works to automatically switch you over to VOIP whenever possible. They said it is an issue with having the correct ROM on the device.
Has anyone gotten a hold of the ROM and tried to run it on a different device? I'd like to keep my SGS4 and if it's just an issue with a ROM then I don't see why it wouldn't work.
Here's my specific back story: I have an international SGS4 i9500. I've been using Airvoice Wireless for the last 6 months combined with a google voice VOIP phone number and have been loving my cell phone bill of $10/month. Up until this point I've been using the talkatone app as my VOIP whenever I have a wifi connection. Unfortunately, talkatone is going to start making its users pay for a membership to the app. As a result, I'm looking for other options and considering using Republic Wireless.
I am in the US with a Moto X Pure XT1575 (Unlocked) phone. I am on Straight Talk with an AT&T SIM. When trying to enable wi-fi tethering, I get prompted to "go to att.com/mywireless or dial 611". My previous phone, a OnePlus One tethered for me out of the box without any issues or prompting. Why would my old phone work but not the Moto X Pure? I assumed that being "unlocked" would not have any carrier restrictions. Maybe I'm misunderstanding what that means.
What is the simplest way to get wi-fi tethering working? I would like to keep the phone as close to stock as possible. I don't need it frequently, but when I do, it's important for my job. I don't necessarily need to use the built-in Android tethering. I am fine with rooting and using a free/paid app. I just need something that works reliably.

THIS process works for me on Sprint.

Thanks! I'll give it a whirl and report back. Anyone had luck with this method with AT&T?
Hi, i have a moto g 4 and I have problems receiving calls: The person who calls usually have to call about 5 times until the phone finally receives the call and rings.
The SIM card is new (not cut manually) and was working OK in a moto G 1st gen previously. I've also tried both sim slots to no avail.
Please, any hint on how to fix this?
My guess is your on a customized ROM, ie: PAC, cm, or temasek.
None of those roms currently have working incoming calls on the Moto g single sim phones (non plus)
The resolve for this is flash back to stock and root it, until they get it fixed.
On stock everything works.
A friend upgraded their phone and carrier to an iPhone XS Max on Verizon. Moto G5 Plus connects to home and work WiFi without issue. Connects to my PixelXL2 tether (tmobile) without issue. When connecting to the iPhone the eventual error message is "The password may be invalid". I tried using another Moto G5 Plus running 14.1 and received the same error. Testing the iPhone tether with an iPad mini and a Nexus 6P (PureNexus), connected successfully.
I'm not finding any similar results from web searches and thought I would try here.
Thanks
