Long time iOS user, now on a Razr HD Maxx. Figured I'd give something else a try when I switched from AT&T to Verizon. So far, I like the phone, but I have a few annoyances. I can live with all of them except one - the constant barrage of ads that Verizon shoves down our throats everytime the phone is unlocked.

So, I looked into rooting the phone, and I'm running into some difficulties. I've rooted iPhones and my iPad successfully in the past, so I'm not a n00b at it. :) But the process for this phone is kicking my butt.

I'm on Android 4.1.2 and I just received an update yesterday to go to System version 9.18.79.XT926.Verizon.en.US.

None of the rooting packages I've tried work. OneTouchRoot, motofail, RazrBlade... all of them fail.

I do not have an A/V package installed. I did have Lookout running, but I uninstalled that, in preparation for the rooting procedure, so that's gone.

Motofail and RazrBlade both complain about insufficient rights to carry out their exploits.

Soooo.... any assistance from those of you much more learned Android folks would be greatly appreciated.

It connects but will not play any music. The music, even on different players, just sits there with no time going by but in a few minutes it pauses. Properties has both Phone and Media checked. Bluetooth connects and acts like it is going to work. If I finally get a music player to work it just plays through the phone speaker.

Has anyone found a work around? Verizon just said it's incompatable.

It works with my laptop so for the cheap price I can use for that just seeing if there is any solution anyone has found.

Just to be clear, I paired and unpaired many times. There is no where to put in a pairing code. I went by the directions and reset it several times. My other stereo bluetooth hooked up despite it hooking up differently after the upgrade to Jellybean.

Thanks everyone for all your support. ]]> Droid RAZR Maxx valentine http://www.razrforums.com/forum/droid-razr-maxx/3560-nokia-bh-803-stereo-bluetooth-headset-connects-but-doesn-t-work-any-ideas.html http://www.razrforums.com/forum/droid-razr-maxx/3535-maxx-hd-battery-help.html Wed, 17 Jul 2013 15:11:36 GMT I just wanted to know if using iheartradio for 4 hrs and the maxx being on 39% battery good I just wanted to know if using iheartradio for 4 hrs and the maxx being on 39% battery good ]]> Droid RAZR Maxx Guate2 http://www.razrforums.com/forum/droid-razr-maxx/3535-maxx-hd-battery-help.html
