Got two razr hd's on thursday, one for me one for my fiance. We both had droid X's before. I got one white one, she got one in black. We're both having huge signal loss issues on both phones. She's having battery life problems. Not very satisfied. Phone is *amazing*other than these problems though!
In our house, we have no 4g signal at all. We sometimes have 3g , but usually with only 1 bar. They lose 3G all the time though at random, in fact loses all signal at all, and can't do anything data-related at all. Fortunately at home we have wifi. Here's the funny part though. When WIFI is on, it will say we have 3G signal. But as soon as we turn the WIFI off, the 3G signal goes away (in fact we lose any signal we had at all and can't connect to anything data-related without a reboot of the phone.)
Today we drove all around the countryside while on a business trip. Even while driving (or stopped at gas stations) we would both just randomly lose signal (sometimes not at the same time even!) This is *NOT* an issue with towers, we have NEVER had any issues with the droid X's ever losing signal anywhere in our entire region. Verizon has amazing coverage in our area and 3G/4G is full throughout. Friends nearby with other types of phones never have any problem with constant 4G connection on max amount of bars. At this time though I would just like to have any kind of constant signal, even if it's just 1X. 3G would be nice! 4G would be amazing...
battery issues: Mine seems to only be down to 60% battery at the end of the day, her's is dead before the day is over. We use the phones primary to text and call each other and mine even has more data usage so far so why does hers drain so quickly? I have a feeling it has something to do with this damn signal dropping issue.
I freaking love this phone but this may be a dealbreaker. I have 8 days to return the phone to VZW for exhange or refund. What should I do? Any suggestions? Any fixes? I would hate to have to have it replaced because I have all my settings just the way I like it and all the apps I need.
