Usually the batter gets fried when it comes in contact with water (I know because I dove into a pool, swam for 10 minutes, and had my phone in my pocket!).

1. Take the battery out of your phone instantly after water damage.
2. Dry your phone with a blow-dryer until thoroughly dry.
3. Dry the battery.
4. Place the battery back in the phone and press the power button.
5. If the phone turns on, good, if not continue to step 6.

6. Find a friend with a RAZR and use his/her battery in your phone.


If the other battery works purchase a new battery... and by the way... the lines on your screen WILL GO AWAY lol

Motorola Motorazr V3m. Can barely hear ringer

Does it work well before? If it was working well, the I think the phone ringer is bad. I don't think it has anything to do the software update.

Best wishes.

Phone wont charge

Did you drop your phone in water? or do you live in a humid area?

Your phone was exposed to moisture. That red dot is a moisture sensitive piece of tape that changes colors when it gets wet.

If your phone still works, but the battery won't charge when connected to a home charger, you might try charging it in your car. Its a different type of current and may work with a somewhat damaged battery.

If that fails to fix the problem you may need to get a new battery.

Hope this helps
