Do a Soft Reset:  Here is How..

Soft Reset - DROID RAZR / RAZR MAXX by MOTOROLA

Note A soft reset is the most useful tool for resolving a variety of issues. In most cases, a soft reset will not affect data on the device, unless the battery is very low.

  1. Press and hold volume down key then press and hold the power button until the device powers off then release.

Thank you B33 for your suggestion. I appreciate your help.

@PJP12, were you able to perform the soft reset as B33 suggested? This should have restored the screen on your phone.

May I ask what app you were using when the phone froze? If it was a third party app you may want to consider removing it if it is causing the phone to freeze.

Please post back if you were unable to soft reset your device. I’ll be more than happy to further assist you.

@John B - You appreciate B33's help? If it weren't for the other users there would be no help. @PJP12 's issue was logged TWELVE days ago.

Hi. Sorry I'm cutting in the middle. I had the same problem with PJP12. What was worse was that the screen blacked out and I had absolutely no idea what was showing when it blacked out. I thought the phone died for a second. But then, I received some text messages with notify sound. But I couldn't get the screen back up. And as PJP12 said, the battery is built in and I couldn't take it out. B33, your suggestion finally helped me. Thank you very much. I have to say that ever since the update about 2 weeks ago, my phone freezes 3 or 4 times A DAY. It is the biggest piece of shit. I wish to return this and get another if I can.

Oh thank you so much. I was getting so annoyed with this and couldn't turn it off or do anything at all. I was just waiting for it to die but then I decided to look something up to fix it. Thank you!!
