So picked up my phone a couple days ago and have had a bit of a headache getting it activated.
Well long story short if you put in Sim and show LTE just toggle the cdma roaming off then on. That's it. I searched for hours, 4 different Verizon techs and finally was messing with that and it works.
Love the phone so far. Coming from a Nexus 6p, after the gcam port I have not one single complaint. It's everything I wanted it to be so far!

Next time you switch phones, or anyone else on Verizon that is going to use the Razer Phone 2, do not just put the Sim card in. Go to Verizonwireless.com and go to change device with a device that has not been on your account. Type in the imei of the Razer phone 2 and the system will recognize that it it a CDMA-less device and make the proper changes. It will then tell you to insert the Sim into the Razer phone 2 and it will then work 100%. I haven't had any issues at all from day one. If you want to go to a device that does have cdma, just do the saw process with the cdma phone.

Anyone know why I'm having issues sending any pictures? SMS won't send anything but texts

Same issue as listed above - the RP2 is CMDA-less. Activate online as mentioned above, or just call Verizon customer service, and tell them you are switching to a CMDA-less phone, and they will need to get you transferred over to the tech department and they'll fix it for you - it's something on Verizon's end that needs to be changed on the account level, not an issue with your device.

So I toggled my cdma roaming again and everything is working again. Not sure why, if it's something I have to keep doing not sure if I'm keeping it.

Hi, I am new to this site but I got the razer phone 2 and have it on the verizon cdma-less service. I have the entire phone working outside of wifi calling. When I do the *#*#4636#*#* on phone info it allows me to turn on and off mobile radio power, VoLTE provisioned, but I can't turn video calling, wifi calling on or off. I've talked to tech2 for verizon and they said I'm setup for it but the phone isn't accepting it. I do tend to drop service a lot as well compared to my samsung s7. Is there something I'm doing wrong? I also read that switching to this phone I should have gotten a new sim card but didn't.
