Hi,i just get my droid razr maxx HD two days ago,and i can use my local operator,'m live at indonesia ,have you try to set the the network to GSM/UMTS ?

XT926 WILL NOT WORK ON A GSM NETWORK. It is built with a CDMA radio, that's hardware. You need an xt925, which is built with the GSM radio in order to use a GSM network. There is no software changes that you could make to change a CDMA phone into a GSM one. Sorry.

No. Its a global phone. It in fact has the GSM radios built into it. And others have had success with using it on GSM networks.

For example this thread shows how to make it work with us GSM carriers:

This question comes up A LOT. You could do a search in either the RAZR HD forums or the RAZR M forums to find the answer. The phone is a global phone, it has a SIM card and it works on GSM networks outside the US. There's a lot of misinformation floating around with people, like hte poster above, screaming about it being CDMA and not working globally... this is simply not true. I have been to Australia with this thing, it works fine.

The problem that others have found is that because India uses CDMA there's some logic burned into the phone that locks it to Verizon and their partner carrier whilst in India. Unfortunately, there is no known workaround that I have found. Some people have tried things with RadioComm, including the GSM unlock which allows the HD to be used on US GSM carriers (ATT/TMo). I haven't seen anything to indicate that this fix also fixes the phone so it can be used in Inida.

Sorry for the bad news...

Hi. I've successfully being using the razr maxx HD in India . Earlier me to face similar problem as you for not be able to use this phone. However with the OTA ver .16 update, the phone automatically started to work on the Indian sims and since then its no looking back.
Why don't you flash the latest current stock rom update which I think is v.18 .
I believe you should have no problems
