alright guys today's video is going to
be on my new Droid RAZR MAXX and I want
to show you a couple things first thing
I'm going to show you is it's going to
be a how-to on how to bag pass
activation these two icons up here which
basically tell you there's no signal and
they also tell you that there's no SIM
card okay so normally if you push the
start button here it'll go to the next
thing I'll try to look for a SIM card
and it will tell you that there's no SIM
card you can't do anything power off the
phone put a sim card in so we're going
to do is we're going to rotate this
thing and then we're going to push in a
couple different spots so just watch my
finger one top corner another corner
another spot just keep keep pushing
these there it goes okay so now you see
how it changed so basically you're just
going to push that spot top top left top
right the other spot in the air spot
just going to keep going round and round
and round I think you don't have to do
it once technically I just keep doing it
until it does this so it's checking for
data connectivity it's going to find
nothing basically is what's going to
happen and it's going to move on so
while I'm waiting for this what I like
to do is pull this down go into settings
and go to Wi-Fi and go ahead and get on
your local Wi-Fi network you don't have
to do this step but I normally do it so
I'm going to type this in really quick
and watch this thing finish up hanging
alright so I'm connecting up to my Wi-Fi
ok connected very good and back out okay
so connection failed in order to
complete and set up Wi-Fi we've already
done that so we're going to say next
and now it's trying to communicate with
server please wait now that we have a
Wi-Fi signal so start set up and the
first thing that's going to do is this
is going to go to backup assist and it's
just going to say it fails it because
you don't have any network and we're
going to go to the rest of the setup
steps so basically the reason you're
going to want to bypass your activation
is a couple reasons one you want to use
this thing as an extra like just like an
almost like an iPod play music to
everything's not use it for phone calls
- you could set this up as a Wi-Fi phone
if you want I have a video on that it's
very very cool uses Google Voice and an
app called groove IP to make free phone
calls over Wi-Fi and receive them also
text message very sweet a little set up
or if you just want to use it for your
kids play games on something like that
you have an extra phone this is why
you'd want to bypass activation on this
thing otherwise you do really want a sim
card in there and things like that so
let's just let this thing go and I'm
going to show you it's going to fail and
we'll show you the rest of the setup
process and then from there you will be
ready to rock and roll so just give this
thing a second I may pause come back to
it alright so as you can see here guys
back the Syst failed it says to call
star six one one while I fail because
there's no network there's no sim card
in it so we're going to cancel and you
can go to next you can set up your email
we're going to go next
use your things for GPS so stand alone
agree to it Google services agree to it
if you want those GPS services and hit
next and you can sign in I'm gonna say
nut now that's for your Gmail and then
done and voila
hit next and we're going to turn this
thing around here and there you go there
you go you are now a bypassed activation
and you are in stock
ice-cream sandwich on the road RAZR MAXX
and this is stock ice-cream sandwich
here
and you can see that by going into
settings about phone right there 4.0
point four there you go guys that is its
how to bypass activation on the Droid
RAZR MAXX or droid razr
and get you in there to set this thing
up as a Wi-Fi phone or whatever you want
to do with it without having a SIM card
thanks for checking it out
